I think the Pied Piper of Hamilen is a very creepy story.

I agree. If you read all of th page some people think he mudered the children and hid them in trees!

[edit]

It seems that the source for this text cannot be traced. May I offer two possibilities?

I hope at the least this will bar deletion tags.

It is most unlikely that Browning would have written this or anything using American spellings! Bjenks (talk) 15:46, 11 December 2019 (UTC)Reply
"The Pied Piper" first appeared in Dramatic Lyrics (1842), which I don't see a scan of. However, here is an 1868 British edition of collected works ("Pied Piper" is pages 225-236). Levana Taylor (talk) 18:35, 11 December 2019 (UTC)Reply
