About this listen

In this chilling episode of Lurk, we delve into one of the most mysterious and brutal unsolved crimes in German history—the Hinterkaifeck murders. In 1922, on a quiet Bavarian farmstead, six members of the Gruber-Gabriel family were found gruesomely murdered. The scene was eerie: strange footprints in the snow, an attic possibly occupied before the killings, and a killer who may have stayed in the house after the murders were done.

Who was responsible for this horrific crime? Was it someone close to the family, or a wandering stranger with dark intentions? And what clues still haunt investigators and armchair detectives to this day?

Join us as we explore the unsettling evidence, examine chilling theories, and uncover the lingering questions surrounding this nearly century-old case. This is one true crime mystery that continues to baffle—and terrify.
