Hello Friends!!! Today, I will tell you story about boggart. So... read carefully!!!^^
The Boggart is most commonly found in the counties of Yorkshire and
Lancashire, its name appears in places such as Boggart's Clough and
Boggart's Hole in Lancashire. Boggarts were mischievous spirits
responsible for mishaps and poltergeist activity within the home and in
the countryside. They would rearrange furniture, break pots and
generally be blamed for 'things that go bump in the night'.
They were often found attached to families and could be helpful
within the household until they were insulted in some way. Boggarts had
the ability to shape-shift, and sometimes appeared in the form of
animals. If offerings were left out for them they would not cause
trouble.
The supposed ghosts of people were also called Boggarts, and the
word may be have been used to explain any strange phenomena in the
past. An outbreak of poltergeist activity on a farm above Oldham in
Lancashire was attributed to a Boggart and there are several such
stories, some of which we will outline in the future.
Do you ever hear about bloody mary, fairy, mermaid, and jack the ripper? Of course some of you ever hear that. That is called Urban Legend. By the way..what is the urban legend? Urban Legend is a form modern folklore consisting of stories that may or may not have been believed by their tellers to be true. Okay, if you curious about that, i don't mind to share that with you. I just shared European Folklore only.So, I hope you might also like it and let's check this out!

Jinxed Royal Wedding Ceremony
The story begins in May of 1867 as
Princess Maria del Pozzo della
Cisterna prepares for her wedding to
the King's son, the Duke of
D'Aosta. The first disaster strikes
when the Princess's wardrobe
mistress hangs herself. The princess
immediately hires another
seamstress to make her a new gown.
On the day of the wedding, the ceremony
is delayed when the
officer leading the royal procession
collapses from a heat stroke.
When the party arrives at the palace,
the gatekeeper won't open the
gates. He's discovered dead at his
post.
After the wedding ceremony, the best
man accidentally shoots
himself while toying with a ceremonial
gun. Anxious to get away, the
couple flees for the train station to
begin their royal honeymoon and
escape tragedy. As soon as they leave
the palace, the official who
composed the marriage contract dies
from a sudden heart attack.
Before the couple can arrive at the
train station, the stationmaster
somehow stumbles into the path of an
oncoming train, the one sent to
collect the couple.
The King rushes to the station to
prevent the couple from boarding
the train because by now he's convinced
that there's a curse or jinx
on the couple. He attempts to herd
everyone back to the palace, but
on the way, the Count of Castiglione,
who's riding beside the royal
carriage, tumbles from his horse and is
run over by the carriage.
He's killed by one of his uniform
medals crushed into his chest
