right we get into those murders now the description only read that something snuck into their farm and then it attacked yeah i'm saying so anybody who's always had eerie creepy feelings about barnes man here's your validation let's check it out well let me make sure i'm set uh i'm not look at that caught it before i caught it before here we go no matter whether you believe this tragedy is the result of something paranormal or something normal and rational and explainable no matter which way you feel or maybe somewhere in the middle the details of the story itself the actual facts of the story are horrifying what actually happened to this poor family in the 1920s is it's just one of the more terrifying ordeals that i've ever come across and it's crazy to me that it's a true story without giving too much away someone or something shows up on this oh just oh i said this food just changes clothes on us like that ah the color change my bad threw me off ever come across and it's crazy to me that it's a true story without giving too much away someone or something shows up on this farm and it doesn't leave one of the maids starts hearing strange sounds they start looking for this person or this thing they start seeing things moving around in their house and there's every indication that someone is in the farm someone has snuck into the farm and is terrorizing us and then on march 31st 1922 whatever it was finally attacks this is the story of the hinterkaifeck murders before we get into today's story if you're a fan of the dark strange and mysterious delay all i do to you i would ask you to spend a vacation in the 1920s there was of my weekly uploads all right let's dive in back in the 1920s there was a farmstead called hinterkyphek farm that was located in southern germany in a very rural isolated heavily forested area so the occupants of the farm were the live and maid and the gruber family the gruber family was andreas his wife azealia their daughter victoria and victoria's two children joseph and azalea as well and everything was going fine for the gruber family and for their farm until the winter of 1921 when some very strange things started happening on their property the first one to notice strange things happening around their property was their live-in maid she spent the majority of her time in the main house and she was alone a lot of the time and she started to notice when she was alone that she would hear tapping what sounded like in the walls not someone in another room tapping but literally something in the walls and she would go up and she would listen and it would still be tapping but she couldn't make sense of it and then she started hearing a combination of disembodied voices and footsteps in the attic and when she started hearing those footsteps and voices coming from the attic she ran and told andreas to say hey someone's in your attic andreas would go up even though he was skeptical he'd go up to the attic and he would look and not only is no one there but it was this totally open space up there there wasn't really anywhere to hide there was no one up there and there was no sign of anybody having been up there there was no food there's nothing and so over the course of several weeks the living maid kept saying that at night she'd be laying in bed and she would hear footsteps and voices from the addict she'd hear tapping in the walls she would tell andreas and then andreas he'd be frustrated with her because he didn't really telling trap door door entryway into the walls or another area that they don't know about believe her and go charging up into the attic and nothing would be there and so she was just not having it she'd been working with this family for a long time she did not feel convinced that no one was there she she really thought this place was haunted and so she ultimately tells the gruber family like i'm sorry but i can't stay here another night whenever i'm here i feel like i'm being watched and at night i can't sleep because of the footsteps in the attic and these voices i know you've chucked but i can't be here anymore and so she quits she might be the smartest person we've heard about in a long time bro here's the things recognize the signs the feeling in her gut and she actually listens to it how to commend her and it really catches the gruber family by surprise because they rely on her help and so they're kind of thrown for a loop because they have to replace her and so she leaves and now they need to go find a replacement over the following six months they would not find a replacement and it would create an increased workload for basically everybody on the farm which led to a higher stress level everybody's kind of on edge you know the departure of the live and made was a really big deal and so you got to put that in perspective as you hear what happens over the next six months at first after the live-in maid had left no one reported hearing any strange sounds around the house you know they were so busy that they didn't even have time to consider if there was any sounds in the house that they didn't recognize but eventually andreas would later admit that he started hearing the tapping sounds and the footsteps in the attic and the disembodied voices and no one's there and so now he's becoming paranoid and he shared his paranoia with the rest of the family who's now also hearing these sounds and these disembodied voices in the footsteps and despite checking and now searching the whole property like they've begun to like actually do a full-blown investigation everyone's just stressed they don't know what it's coming from they're mad at each other for like becoming paranoid and so they just continue on with work and try to put it out of their mind that they're hearing these strange sounds but the activity in the house would only intensify what was initially just strange tapping sounds and what they thought were disembodied voices turned into things going missing around the house most notably a set of their house keys went missing and there's only so many people there there's really not a good answer as to why they might go missing and they only have a couple sets it's a big deal to lose a set of keys and they went missing and they couldn't find them once the keys went missing the family couldn't stop thinking about the strange sounds in their house and wondering if there really was someone hiding in their house it was terrifying and then when young azalea one of the grandchildren suddenly went missing one night the whole family is in full panic they go out looking everywhere for her they're yelling in the forest they can't find her and then finally they find her and she has no idea how she got out where she went and what even happened she just was like i don't know why i'm here i don't know how i got out she was exhausted she was confused they brought her back to the house and they're trying to get her to explain why you were doing that she can't they go back inside and sitting on the table is a newspaper that andreas didn't subscribe to no one in the family had brought no one even in the area would turn out subscribe like come on now how many more signs do you need bro like i mean made gone now everybody else starting to hear it things going missing you come back and you find a newspaper we would have been gone subscribed to this particular kind of obscure newspaper and it's just sitting in their house a couple days after that they noticed that someone had clearly tried to break into their tool shed which had loads of tools in there very expensive there was a lock on the outside and there was very deep gashes into the metal it looked like someone had been you know hacking away at the lock to try to break it open but you know they're living in a very isolated part of germany where there isn't much ambient sound and so it was strange to them that someone had been so violent with this lock like hacking at this metal lock presumably with something metal and no one had heard it or reacted to it none of the dogs had heard of nothing so just very confusing stuff is starting to happen around the property but it would be what andreas sees in the spring of 1922 that pushes he and his family over the edge from general paranoia to outright panic so andreas wakes up in early march of 1922 there was this huge snowstorm the night before he gets up early and he goes to the back door of his house and he opens it up and he can clearly see that there are footprints that have walked from the forest which is pretty far away from his property they have quite a bit of acreage there's footsteps that are clearly coming out of the forest all the way up to the door that he has now just opened and he's looking down at these footprints and there's no return set of tracks and so he's thinking to himself well whoever walked up to my house came into the house so he shuts the door and locks it and immediately goes and wakes up his family and says hey why are there footprints leading up to the back door because there's there's no footprints going away someone came to the back door and apparently came inside his wife his daughter the grandkids it's too late now yeah it's too late now y'all don't let that person get all tools everything they needed it's like it's like they've been preparing for a specific moment or something it don't make sense no one has a clue the maid nobody knows they said hey we've been asleep we have no idea so now andreas i mean he's obviously thinking about the strangeness that's happened in his house over the past couple of months and so he's worried so he opens the door back up and he looks and he's studying these footprints and he's like i just don't get it you have to turn around and walk back otherwise you're here you're at the house he shuts the door and he walks around his house he looks at all of the different exits to his house so he looks to see if there's exiting footprints which is scaring him thinking about it which means someone would have come into the house and jumped out a window or gone out another door but he's just checking and as soon as he makes sure there's no other footprints he does a scan of his entire house because now he's convinced that someone's in his house he goes to the attic he goes all around he's yelling i mean he's looking everywhere there's nothing there's no one in the house the family's concerned but it's only one thing you got to do bro get everybody out set the house on fire sit back wait you know i'll either come out of that or we'll just have to rebuild bro yeah what i'm saying set it on fire yeah there's no one in the house so he keeps everything locked and he goes outside and he starts tracking these footprints back to where they came from and he walks all the way to the forest and they just kind of stop abruptly like they just started kind of magically at the edge of the tree line and walked right up to his house but there's no clear origination besides it's just in the forest somewhere and there's also no clear sense of what happened once they arrived at the door so after doing one more loop around his property he goes in the barn he goes in the shed he goes back in his house he's checking the attic he's looking everywhere and he can't find any indication that some stranger is here he finally decides that he's going to tell someone about what's been happening at his property and so they did have a neighbor lorenz schlittenbauer who was his closest neighbor who was not really that close but you know a couple hundred yards away and he goes over and he tells lorenz everything i've been hearing sounds you know my maid quit because she was hearing sounds we looked in the attic we couldn't find anything then we started hearing sounds the keys go missing there's this newspaper in my house my granddaughter's running out in the middle of the night she's disappearing she doesn't know what's going on you know these footprints i i can't make sense of it and so lorenz also not knowing what to make of it suggests like hey i have extra weapons you want to take an extra rifle and arm yourself protect yourself and andreas just says you know what no i'm good i'm going to pass on the rifle i'm probably overreacting anyways and i'm sure we're just fine oh my gosh bro how many more signs do you need are y'all staying in that house another night please tell me you not bro the footprints i mean you can't get more blatantly obvious than that how could you even i wouldn't even be able to sleep any sound i'm man we gotta go burn it down though but it would turn out he was not just fine and he probably should have taken up lorenz on the offer so just a couple of days after speaking with his neighbor about the weirdness happening on his property the gruber family got a little bit of good news which was they finally were able to locate another maid a live-in maid to come stay with them to replace the one who had left because she believed the place was haunted and so a few weeks later on march 31st 1922 this new maid shows up to hinter kaifek but unfortunately this would also be the same date a horrible tragedy unfolds at the hinder kaife farm over the course of 24 hours someone or something was in the barn on hinterkaifeck and was able to silently lure in members of the gruber family one by one without telling anybody else they were doing they would walk over almost like in a trance into the barn where they would be struck in the head by something called a manic which is kind of like an axe blow to the head and they're down as soon as they're down whoever was in there whatever was in there would take their bodies and move them to the corner and lay them down kind of square them up against the corner of the barn and then cover them with hay and as soon as they were deceased he would go whatever it was would go back and lure in the next person so over a whole day each of these members of the family are being lured into this barn where investigators nobody knows what it was that was lowering the minute they weren't scared when they went in their guard was down and they would go in and then get hit in the head with this mattock until there was four people stacked up in the corner and at that point the remaining two people on the farm uh were still in the house sleeping and whoever was doing this went into the house and used the matic to end their lives as well four days later on april 4th a repairman who was scheduled to come to the hinter kaifak farm shows up to repair the feeding machine he goes the door he knocks on the door and it's locked and you know he can see lights on inside he can hear the dog barking inside but no one comes to greet him now the feeder was outside of the main house and was actually on basically a public area of the farm so he didn't need you know them to physically get to the feeder and he knew how to fix it so after trying the front door going to the back door looking in the windows and seeing lights hearing the dog but everything's locked he just said you know what i'm just gonna i'm just gonna do the job so he goes into or he goes into the area where the feeder is he does the repair and as he's leaving he notices that the dog that was barking that was inside the house is now outside the house tied up and so he goes over to that section of the house thinking oh well now i'll knock in the door someone's sure to see me and again no one comes to the door and the door the back door that clearly must have just been open to let the dog out is locked again and so he's like man that's odd and so instead of just leaving he you know he finishes the job with the feeder and he goes over to lorenz schlittenbauer's house the neighbor and he says hey just so you know i was just over at the gruber family's farm i fixed their feeder like they wanted me to but no one was there but maybe somebody was there because the dog was inside then it was outside don't know what's going on but can you just let them know that i was here because i couldn't get in touch though but it prompts schlittenbauer to go check on the groupers because you know they haven't seen him in a couple days anyways and so they figured they'll swing by and just make sure everything's okay so they go over to hinterkaifeck and you know the lights are on in the house the dog showing up is outside yeah the doors are locked um bodies in the barn just rotten just rotting man bro they had every opera this this one pissed me off bro because how many signs do you need before something tragic like it bro if this has any underlying uh meaning listen to the signs bro pay attention to the signs and they see that the barn is actually open so they go to the barn and in the barn at first they don't see anything but in the back corner underneath some hay are four of the bodies of the gruber family they go inside and they find the remaining two bodies and no one else is there although there was signs of someone recently eating in the kitchen the fire was lit you know it was like the house was being lived in at that very moment although to schlittenbauer and anybody that was there they have no way of knowing that it's been days since the gruber family had passed away and so they end up leaving and getting in touch with authorities so the police show up and they're able to determine with relative certainty that the tragedy took place on march 31st but for four days afterwards someone lived in the gruber house slept in their beds ate their food lit fires lounged around inside they played with the dog they milked the cows i mean they like lived in this house they ran the farm for four days and other neighbors would even say that yeah you know we saw smoke coming out of the chimney on you know april 3rd and april 2nd and so it was confirmed that someone had been staying in this house which is so creepy and so the police are a little bit baffled and they're like okay well then it was probably a drifter what if it's the maid that they let go you think so the target of opportunity they probably saw this isolated farm and they probably were going to rob them stay there a little bit and then leave but when they searched the farmhouse there were large sums of cash that were just out practically in the open like barely hidden that had not been taken and anybody that was robbing the place would have taken the cash and so probably wasn't a robbery which leaves maybe a crime of passion but they were like what's the motive and unfortunately andreas was not particularly well liked in the town that was nearby and so there was lots of people that didn't like andreas which made it really hard to whittle it down so they started just interviewing like crazy they're talking to hundreds of people that were in connection with that could be connected to this but they're getting nowhere uh they did feel like lorenz schlittenbauer was probably the the best suspect because he he's right there he's right next door he's their neighbor and in fact he had wanted to marry victoria the the daughter uh and andreas had told him outright no and they thought that that could be a reason um but like the big issue with lorenz schlittenbauer being the primary suspect is you know he had a farm to keep in a family to take care of and so how could he have committed this crime and then ran the enter kaifak farm for four days and lived there and slept there without his family knowing and his family's like no he's been here with us and so the police they aren't able to solve it they don't really have any decent suspects and so they kind of leave it with well whoever did this uh probably had been there for about six months potentially before they committed the crime and then six months six months bro six months you've been living with the killer the person who's ultimately gonna take your life bringing your home for six months bro six months stayed there for a few days afterwards and then vanished and to this day they have not been caught and they even reopened this case in 2007 but they found that you know despite the number of suspects and despite the evidence available it just wasn't enough to provide any sort of clarity on what actually happened so it remains a huge mystery so like any other high profile unsolved mystery there are literally hundreds of potential explanations for what could have happened but what i'm most interested in is what you all think could have happened maybe i i don't know bro like who gets into your home for six months and just pretty much eats your food lives in your house everything that was done probably after they after they murdered them what stuff they were doing while they were in the house six months prior like six months bro you got to recognize the signs man you got to and just not blow it off all the time i know it's easy for us to do and be like yeah it's nothing or man it's just probably this and you formulate whatever it is in your brain that that makes you easy feel at ease with what's going on man but that's crazy six months bro six months this person was in here formulating a plan or figuring out when or plotting on how to kill you and then ultimately executed it that's insane that is as insane i've never heard nothing like that man oh man make sure y'all shut down at night i listen in the walls i listen in the attic check all the closets in the house under the beds everywhere man make sure y'all ain't living with no killers either all right and you could be the person sleeping next to you could be but that's another it's another story for another time all right it's your boy hello man y'all get at me in the comment section let me know what you thought about this one so the next reaction i'm gone peace
