The legend of the Haunted Abandonment:

'Amalia, Amalia, do you love me?'

Amalia and Frederik were in love, dating. It was a beautiful summer Saturday evening. They sat in a quiet spot in the Rietveldse Polder just outside Alphen aan den Rijn. They did what people in love do: kiss. Frederik wanted more. Amalia didn't want that. Amalia gave Frederik a push and he fell into the water. From there he shouted: “Amalia, Amalia, do you love me?” Amalia only saw his straw hat floating. Frederik drowned… From that moment on, Amalia led a melancholic life. She goes back to the water every Saturday evening and again and again she hears Frederik ask if she loves him. Others also hear something sometimes. That is why it has since been called the Spookverlaat.
