In our entries, we try to tell you about the treasures of our region in the French Alps. As Voilaprivatechef, we focus on local dishes and products. Of course we also care about tradition. Today, in connection with Halloween, we will tell you three local stories. The first one begins with magical pumpkin legend from Haute-Savoie that is said to grant wishes to those who find it.
According to the story, a humble farmer Etienne discovered this enchanted pumpkin in his field. Each year, on the full moon autumn night, the pumpkin would glow brightly. Anyone who touched it with a sincere heart would have their deepest wish granted. The tale has been passed down through generations, adding a touch of enchantment to the region’s folklore.
Second famous scary legend from this area is the story of the “Dame Blanche” or White Lady. According to the legend, she is a ghostly figure dressed in white who appears near Lake Geneva, especially during stormy nights, to warn travelers of impending danger.
Another eerie tale is that of the “Lou Garou,” a werewolf-like creature believed to roam the mountains of Haute-Savoie, instilling fear in the hearts of those who hear its howls. These legends add a touch of mystery to the region’s cultural heritage.
However we want to assure all brave skiers and snowboarders that they can now book a private chef for your winter holidays in Morzine.
