The Night Folks
Liechtenstein legend
Nocturnal apparition
The story tells of an eerie encounter with the legendary Night Folks. A nocturnal apparition, a strange noise - and a detail that was just as mysterious as the apparition itself.
A man in Balzers is said to have been lying in bed when he heard a strange noise outside - the Night Folks were passing by. Curious, he jumped up to see them and ran to the window. In his haste, he wanted to slip into his trousers quickly, but only managed to get one leg in.
He watched the eerie procession from the window: a long, dark swarm moved through the night with a thunderous noise. At the very end of the eerie procession walked a figure - also with only one leg in his pants.
