Arafed man standing in front of a house in the snow

There are literally countless creepy true crime stories, but there’s just something really unsettling about the infamous Hinterkaifeck murders. These took place at a farm in Bavaria, Germany in 1922. Prior to the murders, Andreas Gruber found human foot tracks in the snow leading from the nearby forest to his house. That night, the family heard footsteps coming from the attic but failed to notify the police. On March 31st, every member of the household, including their daughter, her grandchildren and their maid, were killed with a mattock. It would be four days until the bodies were discovered; the still-unknown murderer had long made their escape. This unsolved case truly has it all - gruesome violence, no survivors, an unidentified culprit, and an incredibly creepy case of home invasion.
