Taylor Swift Fans Flood German Museum

A German museum has been unexpectedly overrun by Taylor Swift fans due to a painting that resembles the opening scene of her video "The Fate of Ophelia."

The Hessische Landesmuseum in Wiesbaden saw hundreds of additional visitors over the weekend, including a family from Hamburg and many American families stationed at a US base.

The Swifties' goal: an Art Nouveau painting by Friedrich Heyser featuring Ophelia, Hamlet's beloved in William Shakespeare's play of the same name.
