Laksegade 15

"Laksegade, the modern-day Salmon Street, may not catch your eye at first glance—but don't be fooled, because this street holds a quirky charm known to many Danes, all thanks to an old saying. Now, it may be outdated to say, but the phrase is "The devil is loose on Salmon Street" ("Fanden er løs i Laksegade") and it’s talking about this very street. The story behind it? Well, it’s a wild tale from 1826, when something truly otherworldly is said to have happened at Laksegade 15. Picture an ordinary day in 19th century Copenhagen, when stuff started flying out of the house's windows - potatoes, peat, and all sorts of things came raining down onto the street below. And that's not all! Laughter, screams, and even a few curse words echoed from inside the house as the chaos continued. Of course, curious onlookers couldn't resist peeking inside to catch a glimpse of the madness. Some claimed they heard strange growls, while others swore they spotted glowing red eyes. And you won't believe it, but some folks said there was nobody there at all! Naturally, the police were called to investigate this extraordinary spectacle. But here's the twist—once they stepped inside, everything suddenly stopped. The house stood empty, as if nobody had ever been there. No humans, no animals, no clues to point the finger at anyone. Can you guess what people started whispering? Yup, they suspected the devil himself was behind all the ruckus! So, next time you stroll down Salmon Street, remember its hidden tale of mystery and mischief."
