“OMG. If I find the pictures of the other four of us I’m definitely out of here,” Stevenson replied.
A second update confirmed the family “survived the night” but it probably wasn’t the most comfortable sleep they’d had.
“Did wake at one point to hear an unusual papery sound, as though someone was flipping the pages of a book,” Stevenson said.
“Locked the door, obvs [obviously], and was tempted to lock the children in their own room, but, ftr [for the record], I did not.”
Stevenson, who moved with her family to Sweden from the UK two years ago, told the Mirror they arrived at the B&B around dusk and were getting ready to sit down for dinner when they noticed the painting.
“My daughter just went, ‘Mum, there’s a picture of Barney on the wall,’” she said.
The painting was by Swedish painter Carl Larsson and is called Flowers In The Meadow.
