Back in 1902, the first poltergeist in Europe was captured in Kiev. This happened on November 16 on Khreshchatyk in house number 22. A certain bourgeois woman Dyakonova, who lived in the Grand Hotel, said in horror that she saw how in her bedroom blankets and pillows spontaneously began to fly up and circle around the room, and furniture moved by itself. yourself.
They wanted to call the story of the petty bourgeois fiction, lies or the imagination of a woman, but this did not happen. When the situation repeated itself, Dyakonova called a police squad and they witnessed what was happening. The report then wrote that "it was not possible to pacify the evil spirits."
This incident is considered the first officially recorded anomaly in Europe. Now at this place is the Main Post Office.
Richard's castle
Promotional video:
In 1902, contractor Dmitry Orlov began to build his castle at Andreevsky Descent 15. But a few years later the building caught fire in a mysterious way, and in 1911 Orlov was shot. His wife was forced to sell the house to pay off her late husband's debts.
But even during the life of the contractor, the house went into disrepute: terrible groans and howls echoed through the castle, the owners heard the steps and crying of children. The castle was sold many times, but no one could get along in it.
Manor of merchant Akim Sulima
The estate of the merchant Akim Sulima (16 Luteranskaya st.) Is one of the most famous haunted houses in Kiev. It was built near the destroyed Lutheran cemetery. The merchant himself did not live to see the completion of construction work and could not live in his house.
After the manor was finished, people began to notice a white figure in the windows of the upper floor, and at night they could hear laughter from the attic. Stones began to fall off the building. Kievans were afraid to pass by the "accursed" place.
Bald mountain
Lysaya (Vydubychi metro station) mountain is rightfully the most mystical place in Kiev. This place is shrouded in hundreds of legends and mysterious stories. Here the pagans still carry out their ancient rites and pray to wooden idols.
Bald Mountain began its "terrible" history in 1240, when about a thousand people were buried alive in caves. Military units were located here. Some believe that this place can drive even the most unbelieving person into mysticism crazy.
Bulgakov's house
The house where one of the most mysterious writers of the 20th century Mikhail Bulgakov lived for 13 years, is located at Andreevsky Spusk 13A. The stories that Bulgakov wrote are sometimes very surprising, and sometimes frankly frightening.
From the window of the house you can see one of Kiev's Bald Mountains, where, as you know, witches fly to the Sabbath.
