The village
of Dodow is located near Wittenburg in Germany.
According to a popular legend, there used to be an old woman who lived
on that region possessing a fox strap.
With the help of the strap she was able to take the form of a fox
enabling her to hunt geese and other meat.
This has been her daily routine in providing herself with delicious and
healthy meal. Her grandchild was well
aware about her enigmatic powers.
One day the
teacher of the grandchild was talking certain stuff about magic during their
class. The kid who wanted to impress the
headmaster relayed a story of a magical fox strap that was possessed by his
grandmother. The child took the fox
strap to the school the next day.
Upon seeing
the fox strap, the headmaster immediately took it to the child and accidentally
wore it. The headmaster changed into a
fox and the students went on panic. The
kids who were attentively listening a while ago are now screaming due to fear,
a fox was standing right in front of them.
The
screaming of the children frightened the school master and leaped out of the
window. He went into the hill where he
decided to stay. One day the villagers
decided to form a hunting team but their main intention is not to pursue the
fox, but nonetheless the fox was caught entangled on the trap of the hunting
team. A bullet supposedly hit the fox. After
the fox was hit the fox immediately return to its original form. The hunter was so surprised to see that the
fox was indeed a human. A bullet was
able to penetrate the fox strap causing it to rip apart.
To serve as
a memory to this hill, people named it the Fox Hill, the location where the
headmaster supposedly spent his life while he is in the form of a fox.
