🎙️ Shadows in the Attic: The Hinterkaifeck Massacre Presented by Behind the Mask – A True Crime Podcast Series

In 1922, six members of a Bavarian farming family were found brutally murdered in their remote home. No signs of forced entry. No clear motive. And most chilling of all—the killer may have lived in the attic… for days before striking.

Shadows in the Attic: The Hinterkaifeck Murders explores one of Germany’s most disturbing and unsolved crimes. Mysterious footsteps in the snow, missing keys, strange noises above the ceiling—this is more than a murder mystery. It’s a psychological thriller, a historical investigation, and a haunting journey into the unknown.

From the creators of Behind the Mask, this gripping episode features expert interviews, detailed historical context, and cinematic storytelling to bring you deep into the shadows of a crime that still baffles investigators a century later.
