From the wiki article about Agnetha Faltskog, one of the singers from ABBA:

Quote
Stalking victim Former Dutch citizen Gert Van Der Graaf claims he had fallen in love with Fältskog at the age of 6, in 1974, when he saw ABBA performing "Waterloo" on Dutch TV. Since that day, Van Der Graaf was obsessed with Fältskog. As an adult, he started to make trips to Sweden and found the area where Fältskog lived. In 1997, he moved from Holland to Sweden, determined to get in contact with Fältskog. He managed to buy a small house near Fältskog's estate and also found a job in the area. Soon, he began to approach Fältskog during her walks in her neighborhood. Fältskog soon began a sexual relationship with him and he was invited to visit her home, and eventually to co-habit with her.
After about two years, Fältskog wanted to end the relationship and told Van Der Graaf. After the relationship terminated, he began to send Fältskog many letters, called her relentlessly, and visited her estate frequently without invitation. Eventually, Fältskog obtained a restraining order against Van Der Graaf. He broke the order several times and was eventually deported back to Holland. In 2005, the deportation order from Sweden ran out, and within months Van Der Graaf was again sighted near Fältskog's estate in Ekerö. [5]
Van Der Graaf claims that Fältskog seduced him and that he "did not mean to stalk her" but claimed he was still in love with her and "couldn't let go." [6 Since the deportation, Fältskog has not reported any further contact from Van Der Graaf. However, as recently as 2007, Van Der Graaf was spotted at a play at which Fältskog was in attendance. When asked, Fältskog stated that she did not know Van Der Graaf had been there and that he did not approach her.
That has to be the most successful celebrity stalker EVER.

SHOCKING!
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

I don't see why this is generating such interest. After all, an attraction like that is perfectly natural; sometimes the sparks just fly.

Though the antics of some stalkers are enough to make your hair stand on end.

its fucking creepy

QuoteOverweight Dutch forklift truck driver Gert van der Graaf was an Abba fan who had pursued her for two years. She complained to the police, but in 1997 they started a romantic relationship. 'It was a very intense attention from him and after a while I felt I could not resist any more. I wanted to know him,' Agnetha said. Two years later, they had split up and by 2000 Agnetha was seeking an exclusion order.

After the disaster of her dalliance with Gert, she moved deeper into the forest, building a smaller house around a private courtyard garden. Neighbours say she barely exchanges greetings with them.

That's fucking awesome.  He probably popped so fast the first time with her, it broke the sound barrier.


Proof positive, kids, that perseverance and dedication pays off!

She was gorgeous too--I wish I knew stalking her worked before she turned 50.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

Lately not much progress on that front though.  :(

In the vein of the others, try the back.

there's something wrong with these "van der graafs" I'd say.
This one a stalker, another one a treehugging flippie that kills politicians

Not as shocking as Berk's new ABBA and Meryl Streep fixation.
