Missing: The Foundling of Nuremberg

from Paranormia

As officials, doctors, and crowds tried to understand him, rumours grew…was he a victim, a fraud, or something more? Reports of attacks and injuries deepened the mystery, dividing opinion. In 1833, he died from a stab wound. Was he murdered, or did he write his own ending? ***If you have a story where crime and the otherworldly intertwine, something strange, unexplained or just plain haunted, get in touch at [email protected] is an Audio Always production.
