The Carp That Watches on Christmas Eve: A Dark European Christmas Legend

Описание: This is a dark Christmas legend from the Czech Republic.
Every year before Christmas, families keep a live carp in their bathtub — a holiday tradition meant to bring good luck.
But some families say the fish is watching them.
Children reported the carp following them with its eyes. At night, people heard splashing sounds, even when the bathroom door was locked.
Authorities dismissed it as imagination.
But every Christmas Eve, emergency calls increased — families reporting movement in empty bathtubs.
Then things escalated.
Some woke to find the carp gone by morning, leaving wet footprints leading away from the bathroom. Others swore they heard breathing behind the shower curtain.
Old folklore warns the carp carries the year’s sins of the household.
If it isn’t treated with respect… it takes something in return.
Locals say if the water in your bathtub ripples on its own…
the carp is no longer inside it.
No one knows where the carp goes.
But every Christmas… someone wakes up missing.
