Ghosts in Weißenfels – or Is the Mayor Clairvoyant?


It was March 17, 2025, when the people of Weißenfels gathered for a memorable information event. The topic: the proposed construction of a correctional facility. But while the citizens were busy addressing their many concerns, an entirely different mystery unfolded at the Kulturhaus.



Mayor Martin Papke, a man of stature and certainly not a fan of excessive flights of fancy, opened the event by announcing that it was being filmed. So far, so good. But then came a revelation that puzzled me and others: I was also in the room – standing in a corner, equipped with a camera, ready to document the proceedings for posterity. He even mentioned me by name.

The problem? I wasn’t there.

Now some urgent questions arise. Should the city of Weißenfels be seriously concerned about the mental health of its mayor? Was this a spontaneous hallucination, or is there a deeper metaphysical phenomenon at play? How should a community respond when its mayor suddenly sees people who aren’t actually present?


Or – and this possibility must be considered – do I have a doppelgänger? A devious copy of myself, doing exactly what I occasionally do, only in my absence? Should I be worried? Will he soon be filing my tax return? And who’s to say I’m not the doppelgänger?

Another hypothesis: Are there ghosts in the Kulturhaus? Could the venerable building be a portal to another dimension where alternative versions of ourselves exist? And if so – who pays for their event tickets? Or perhaps Mayor Papke wasn’t real himself, or not from our dimension?

It would, of course, be unfair to judge the mayor too harshly. After all, he bravely battled through 3.5 hours of the program – a feat that would challenge even the healthiest individuals. But what if he sees things no one else perceives? What if Weißenfels is now being monitored by invisible cameramen? What if the city has been infiltrated by shadowy beings from parallel worlds?

It remains to be seen whether further visions will follow or if this was a one-off incident. For now, however, we must acknowledge: Reality in Weißenfels is more complicated than it seems. And from now on, I’ll be paying much closer attention to where I am – or whether I even exist at all.
