The Myth
In the moor near Reisdorf, people said that at night a strange voice could be heard calling out through the darkness.
From the marshes came the repeated cry, “Hup! Hup!” though no one could ever see who or what uttered it.
Thus the place was believed to be haunted by an unseen presence whose voice rang across the moor after nightfall.
