Hace muchos años en la ciudad de Hamelin había un problema enorme por una invasión de ratas que habían venido del campo y los vecinos de la ciudad no sabían cómo deshacerse de ellas.Un día apareció un desconocido que dijo al alcalde que a cambio de una recompensa haría desaparecer a las ratas del pueblo.Le dijeron que si, con lo que se puso manos a la obra inmediatamente y empezó a tocar una flauta e inexplicablemente todas las ratas empezaron a salir de sus agujeros y sin pensárselo mucho comenzaron seguirle a medida que iba tocando la flauta, como si la música las tuviera hipnotizadas.

La conocida leyenda del flautista que encantó las ratas de Hamelin ha sido contada por años como un cuento alegre con un final feliz, pero como suele suceder con estos cuentos de hadas, los originales pueden ser muy diferentes a las versiones más contadas. La ciudad de Hamelin siempre tuvo ratas,¡ y muchas! Nunca fueron un problema, ya que los gatos las mantenían controladas.
