The Naval Academy, Heybeliada

Istanbul · Turkiet · Haunted site

Cadets on night watch tell it the same way generation after generation: a small girl in a yellow dress out in the empty corridor.

The naval academy has stood on Heybeliada since the 19th century, in buildings facing the water that empty every evening when classes end. What makes the place talked about in Istanbul is not the school's history but a figure described identically by people who served there generations apart: a small girl in a yellow dress seen in the corridors at night. Cadets on watch and staff walking their rounds have reported her, always with the same detail — the colour of the dress. Nobody has been able to connect her to any known person or event on the island. She appears, walks the corridor, and is gone, and the next intake is told the story before they stand their own first night watch. Nobody remembers who saw her first.
