Bedtime Stories

Hinterkaifeck

Episode Description from the Publisher

In 1922, six people were brutally murdered at a remote German farmstead, their bodies discovered in bloodied bedclothes after suffering repeated blows to the head. The isolated nature of the property only deepened the mystery, leaving investigators struggling to determine who could have carried out such a savage attack. Was it the work of a deranged killer, an escalating family feud that turned deadly, or something more calculated, perhaps even politically motivated? More than a century later, the truth of what happened at Hinterkaifeck remains frustratingly out of reach.
