Three dead babies, one cursed farm, and a daughter who vanished into thin air. Sleep tight!
Flooding in Krumau am Kamp: three infant bodies, two girls and a boy, are found in the basement of the Trummler family's farm, which has long been uninhabited. The children were suffocated immediately after birth and buried on the spot. A dark reputation precedes the Trummlers – the word "cursed" is used more than once, after the daughter's disappearance without a trace...
