547. Der Kreuzensee bei Schwaan.

ATU-Erzähltypen

Zuordnung derzeit offen.

This is a concise local apparition report, not a complete ATU plot. Both independently worded ATU queries for the seven dancing girls and the whole-plot query returned no relevant type; the displayed results were unrelated tales. No type-level plot can be inferred from a supernatural sighting alone. The source describes a separate, recurring local sighting in a single sentence, not an ATU tale plot. Two distinct ATU queries for phantom coach/lake disappearance and a whole-plot query returned no relevant type. The separate incident is not combined with the earlier girls’ apparition merely because both occur at Kreuzensee. Whole-input ATU status is blocked because the frozen source-composition ledger marks this input as multiple-independent; there is no authorized single whole-story plot or episode boundary for a negative whole-input assignment.

• Thompson F420.3.2.1 · Water-spirits dance.

  Mögliche Zuordnung · Textstelle

  Textbelege und Katalog

  The unit reports seven white-clad girls dancing and then vanishing into the lake; the returned Thompson hierarchy has F420.3.2.1 “Water-spirits dance,” and child F420.3.2.1.1 “Water-maidens dance at village fair.” The dance is explicit, while identity as water-spirits is inferred from their disappearance into the lake, not named by the source; thus I use the broader dance entry as possible. The narrower child additionally requires a village fair, which is not present, so I reject that child. No definition requires the horses or midnight as additional conditions.

  • „Plötzlich scheuten die Pferde und wollten nicht vorwärts und nun sahen die Beiden es aus der Ferne weiß herantanzen. Es waren sieben weißgekleidete Mädchen, mit Kränzen in den Haaren, die einander bei den Händen hielten.“
  • „Wirbelnd und kreiselnd schwebten sie jetzt unmittelbar den Pferden vorüber über den Weg und dann dem Kreuzensee zu, in dessen Wassern sie verschwanden.“
  • „Gerade in diesem Augenblick schlug die Uhr auf dem Schwaaner Thurme Zwölf und nun gingen auch die Pferde plötzlich im Sprunge vorwärts.“

• Thompson E535.1 · Phantom coach and horses.

  Mögliche Zuordnung · Textstelle

  Textbelege und Katalog

  Thompson E535.1 is “Phantom coach and horses,” under E535 “Ghostlike conveyance.” This corresponds closely to the reported four-horse coach that appears at midnight and disappears into the lake. The source frames this as something people have seen at other times but does not explicitly call the vehicle a ghost; the local-legend report supports a possible classification, not certainty. This is a distinct observation from the maidens’ dance.

  • „Zu andern Zeiten hat man auch um Mitternacht eine mit Vieren bespannte Kutsche in wildem Galopp von der Höhe herjagen und dann im Kreuzensee verschwinden sehen.“
