Sweden
Every logged mystery in this country.
- Skåne County
Ale's Stones
Fifty-nine boulders stand in the outline of a ship on a ridge above the Baltic, the largest weighing about five metric tons, hauled up a slope to a spot with no shelter and no water. Radiocarbon evidence places the monument broadly in the later Iron Age, around 500 to 1000 CE. An amateur astronomer has spent decades arguing it is thousands of years older and is a solar calendar, and no working archaeologist accepts it.
- Stockholm County
Codex Gigas
A manuscript made in Bohemia in the early 1200s, 310 parchment leaves holding a Latin Bible, two works of Josephus, medical texts, a chronicle of Bohemia, and a set of charms, written almost entirely by one scribe. It carries a full-page portrait of the Devil, and an inventory from 1635 already records the story that the Devil supplied the imprisoned monk who wrote it.
- Stockholm County
Kymlinge Ghost Station
Stockholm built this blue line station for a district that was never developed, and it has never taken a passenger. SL, the transit authority, says being there is forbidden, and a legend says only the dead get off.
- Jämtland
Storsjöodjuret
On January 22, 1986, the Jämtland county board banned killing, harming, or capturing a lake monster in Storsjön. An environmental court declined to apply the order in 2003, and in 2005 the Parliamentary Ombudsman said it had no legal effect.
