Haunted The Netherlands 🇳🇱
One of the most well-known haunted houses in the Netherlands is the Huis de Salentein, located in Nijkerk. The Huis de Salentein is a historic mansion that dates back to the 17th century and is believed to be haunted by several spirits.
According to legend, one of the ghosts haunting the house is a woman named Helena van Salentein, who tragically lost her life there. It is said that she committed suicide by jumping from one of the castle’s towers after being forbidden to marry the man she loved. Visitors and staff have reported hearing footsteps, whispers, and even seeing apparitions of a woman in old-fashioned clothing.
Another haunted house in the Netherlands is the Huis te Warmond, located in the town of Warmond. This 14th-century castle is rumored to be haunted by the ghost of a lady in white who roams the halls. Witnesses have described seeing a ghostly figure in a flowing white dress, often accompanied by a feeling of unease or cold spots.
