    runeberg.org/svhistfry/19/0094.html The queen of Sweden, Ulrika Eleonora died in 1741. This link leads to a story that tells of Ulrikas ghost being seen soon after her death in the room depicted here.

    Wikipedia: "Ulrika Eleonora avled av smittkoppor i Stockholm den 24 november 1741. Det förekom rykten om förgiftning efter hennes död. Dessa vederlades dock under hennes lit-de-parade i audienssalen rundeln i Kungshuset, eftersom fläckarna efter sjukdomen tydligt kunde ses av besökarna." English translation by Google Translate: "Ulrika Eleonora died of chickenpox in Stockholm on November 24, 1741. There was rumor of poisoning after her death. However, these were compensated during her lit-de-parade in the auditorium roundabout at Kungshuset, as the spots after the disease could clearly be seen by the visitors."

    Stålhandske was a man of great strength. When a captured enemy officer, particularly a Pole or Austrian, was led into the Swedish camp, Stålhandske would shake his hand so hard that blood would appear under his fingernails. This he called "an honest Swedish handshake."
