THE HINTERKAIFECK MURDERS: THE KILLER WHO STAYED

from History Mystery · host History Mystery

Episode 130 | History's Mysteries — Mysterious EventsIn this Mystery episode we focus on the Hinterkaifeck murders of March 31st, 1922 — the killing of six people on an isolated Bavarian farmstead, preceded by footprints in the snow that led in but not out, a newspaper nobody bought, and noises in the attic — followed by the killer living on the property for four days after the murders before the bodies were discovered.This episode covers the specific sequence of events on the night of the killings, the detail that seven-year-old little Cäzilia was alive in the barn for some time after the others died, the investigation that interviewed over 100 people without producing a conviction, and why over 100 years later the case remains officially unsolved with the victims' skulls still missing.Footprints leading in. None leading out. More than a hundred years. No answer.#HistoryMystery #Hinterkaifeck #TrueCrime #Germany #MysteryPodcast
