In a petite apartment in Utongasse 47 in Basel, it is said that Poltergeist tormented the family living there. It happened so bad and they did not find a solution that the family had to leave this place instead.
In the vintage districts of the working class in the Kleinbasel district in Basel Utingasse is today an inconspicuous street, and its neat rows of houses give a petite note of the gloomy history that once happened there. But in 1929, one of the most disturbing and inexplicable visits in the Swiss urban folklore put his mark in Utngasse 47, where it is said that Poltergeist is said.
Developing like a classic polyterteist case of amazing knocking, unseen hands and a terrified child caught in the embrace of something unseen.
A house with a terrible secret
In 1929, a woman living there and three children in a petite apartment in Utingasse 47. The visitation began as a series of strange and lasting sounds at home on the second floor, especially from a slim wall separating the living room from the bedroom of children.
These sounds were not accidental violinists and moans of an vintage building settling in itself, but intentional, insisting taps and raps, like a certain unseen presence, methodically announced in the bones of the house.
The real goal of this unseen terror seemed to be 10-year-old Marcel, a boy whose innocent curiosity seemed to attract the attention of the spirit. Every time Marcel approached the wall of the division, he was taken over by inexplicable icy fear and panicked. His limbs trembled uncontrolled and was overwhelmed by a suffocating sense of fear that no one could explain.
Viewed panic of the city
As the disorders spread in Utongasse 47, engaging neighbors gathered outside. The phenomena deteriorated at night with clamorous knocking echo from the walls, the nessless knocking at dead hours and the overall air of suffocating anxiety. The events quickly drew the attention of both the authorities and the local press, and the police had several visits to check the apartment, searching them from top to bottom. Nothing was found.
They also watched the boy, pinning him when he got panic attacks. Even with restrained arms and legs, a strange knocking of Poltergeist was heard. Doctors and physicists also stopped, unable to find something scientific in which they could attach strange phenomena.
At a time when spiritualism was still the subject of muted salon conversations, and the screenings were as entertaining as superstition, the matter aroused the interest of clergy investigators when they could not find a logical explanation of all this. They looked at the apartment, trying to contact any responsible entity. However, no convincing explanation or natural cause could be found.
Decision from the city
The situation achieved so fever that even the Basel Department of Basel intervened. Although many officials suspected that the episode was a mystification or hysteria, they could not find the perpetrator and not rational origin for tenacious sounds. Ultimately, in the face of growing public problems and perceptible anxiety of tenants, the city made a occasional and decisive move: the haunted apartment was released.
At a time when residential deficiencies were stern because of the post -war growth of Basel, it was an extraordinary step. The apartment remained empty for three months, which is an unprecedented vacancies for a modest apartment in a crowded working class district. Nobody has ever complained about this kind of sounds.
We really don't know what happened to Marcel or what he thought about the terrifying phenomena he experienced at the time. The building is still standing with an external appearance today, without giving any strange interference that once grabbed the walls.
