This tale is well-known among the Maltese, and it is wide-spread enough to make the notorious Blue Lady a household name. It is said that the niece of the Grand Master De Rohan had been betrothed to a suitor who she did not fancy, and whom she did not want to marry. He, tired of being ignored and rejected by his future wife, kept her captive in one of the upstairs rooms of the Palace. While trying to escape, she lost her footing, and fell to her death, wearing a blue dress. She is said to still haunt that same room, wearing the same blue dress she wore to her deathbed. One particular incident tells of a guest of the Governor at the time (Verdala Palace used to be the summer residence of the Governor), who slept in her room. He asked the Governor one night who was the lovely lady wearing blue reflecting through the mirror while he dressed, and the servitude replied that they had all seen her. The Blue Lady is one of the most well-known Maltese ghosts, amongst adults and children alike.
