Walpurgisnacht, the night from 30 April to 1 May, is the
night when witches are reputed to hold a large celebration on the Brocken and
await the arrival of spring.
Walpurgis Night (in German folklore) the night of 30 April
(May Day's eve), when witches meet on the Brocken mountain and hold revels with
their gods.
Brocken is the highest of the Harz Mountains of north
central Germany. It is noted for the phenomenon of the Brocken spectre and for
witches' revels which reputedly took place there on Walpurgis night.
The Brocken Spectre is a magnified shadow of an observer,
typically surrounded by rainbow-like bands, thrown onto a bank of cloud in high
mountain areas when the sun is low. The phenomenon was first reported on the
Brocken.
