Summary[edit]

Description
English: It is said that a heartbroken, headless, ghost bride roams the streets of Mdina at night, warning young men about the sorrows of love. This bride had been promised to marry the love of her life and had all the preparations for her wedding ready. One night, a lusty Knight captured her and took her against her will. Distraught that her reputation had now been tarnished, she took out her vengeance on him and murdered the brawny Knight. She was sentenced to death by beheading for her (just) crime, although she was granted her final wish of marrying her love before her death. She is said to be still roaming the streets of Mdina after dark, headless but still in her ill-fated wedding dress, a bride that she never truly was, but now always will be.
