Flēbilēs vōcēs ēdunt equī et rotae silvā silente. “Age, celerius!” clāmāvit mulier quae raedā vehēbātur. Quae vōbīs nārrātūrus sum, mulierī in septentriōnālī Suētiae parte iter facientī ōlim accidērunt.Ĭelerī cursū raeda per mediam silvam, inter longaevās arborēs, sub nōdōsōs rāmōs et per umbrās rēpentēs rapiēbātur. Video in Latinįor more Halloween specials with scary stories in Latin, take a look at previous year’s videos: Noises in the night – a French ghost story the Swedish ghost story called the Rider the Art of Shuddering from the brothers Grimm two ghost stories from Stockholm, or our very first Halloween Latin special that concerns ghosts and scary things in ancient Rome. You will find the text to the story in Latin below the video. So, without further ado: we present ”Anulus – The Ring”, an old northern Swedish folktale that takes place at a parsonage sometime a long long time ago. This year’s story has no date, no place, no names – which is quite common for tales of this kind: stories that have been told, and believed, for a very very long time. This specific story that has been told in many places, especially in the northern part of Sweden, with certain variations – sometimes it concerns a priest, other times a rich farmer, sometimes the story has been related by ”my sister”.ĭue to the fluidity of folktales like these where things are told as if they are true and has happened (perhaps they did – no smoke without fire, as they say), we will tell the story in that tradition: with fluidity, but as if it has actually happened. This year we have turned to good old Swedish folktales to find our story. Last year we went to France in the mid 1600’s for Halloween.
