Unsolved mysterious dead of full family



Strange history on April 4, 1922, a group of local residents went to Hinterkaifek to understand why family members do not go to school and church. 

To their surprise, they found Gruber, his wife, their 35-year-old daughter, two grandchildren and a maid – all of them were killed by a hoe. This was particularly surprising, because the family was dead for three days, and all cows were recently fed, food freshly prepared and neighbors saw smoke from the pipe. In other words, someone lived on a farm after they killed a family.

A few days before the unfortunate incident, Grubber told his neighbors that he had found strange footprints leading from the forest to his farm. Family members also complained of strange noises in the attic and missing a set of keys to the house. Moreover, the maid abruptly quit her job at the farm six months ago. The new maid was hired hours before the mass murder.

Investigators were able to determine that the killer was methodically pursuing the family, lured the older Grubbers into the barn one by one. Finally, he went into the house and killed a young child and a maid while they slept in their bed. The exact order of the murders remained unclear, and there was no motivation. There was no robbery, because all the valuables remained intact.

The nature of the crime is aggravated by the fact that the Grubbers were not a family of the year; most people hated Andreas Grubber for their cruel temper and greed, and the family had a bad reputation - they were considered a village clan of incest. After all, the investigators simply decapitated the bodies, sent their heads to research into the city, to put it simply, surrendered. The crime remains unsolved to this day.

Alexander Pearce was a native of County Monaghan, Ireland, born in 1790.  He was transported to Australia in 1819 for stealing shoes and continued to prove troublesome in Van Diemen’s Land. Pearce absconded with several others in May 1822, and became a bushranger. This was short lived and Pearce was captured with one of his mates, and was duly sent to Macquarie Harbour. At Macquarie Harbour, Pearce joined a gang of convicts led by the pirates Greenhill and Travers, who intended on escaping from their prison on Sarah Island. The escape was haphazard, and the escapees decided to take their chances going through the forest. The men soon found themselves lost and starving. The decision was made to turn to cannibalism. The men either separated from the group or died one by one and were eaten by the survivors, until only Pearce and Greenhill remained. Pearce claimed that Greenhill and he merely parted ways before Pearce emerged from the bush, but it is believed Pearce got lucky and Green...

After the Great War ended, around 200,000 ANZAC soldiers were repatriated home.

Coming Home  After the Great War ended, around 200,000 ANZAC soldiers were repatriated home.   Our dominant image of this event is of triumphal soldiers returning on troopships, which dock at ports overflowing with cheering loved ones; of heartfelt reunions under colourful bunting and tossed streamers.  Yet Private Arthur Foxcroft’s account of returning home provides an alternative narrative.  Enlisting in 1915, Arthur meticulously recorded his war experience in his diary.  Foxcroft described his splendid Sydney send off, the wonderment of visiting ancient Egypt, and the joy of marching through the French countryside in full bloom.  His diary entries darkened in mid-1916, when he recorded the ‘awful slaughter’ on the Somme, where he sufferred a serious wound.    In 1917, Foxcroft wrote soberly of being seriously wounded a second time, which left him with ‘drop foot’.  His mother, Amelia, pleaded with authorities for his return so he coul...

The actual execution of Amon Goeth.

Image
This is the actual execution of Amon Goeth. He was famously depicted in the movie Schindler’s List, as firing on concentration camp prisoners with a sniper rifle from his balcony. Amon Leopold Göth  (German: [ˈɡøːt] (listen); alternative spelling  Goeth ; 11 December 1908 – 13 September 1946) was an Austrian SS functionary and war criminal. He served as the commandant of the Kraków-Płaszów concentration camp in Płaszów in German-occupied Poland for most of the camp's existence during World War II. Göth was tried after the war by the Supreme National Tribunal of Poland at Kraków and was found guilty of personally ordering the imprisonment, torture, and extermination of individuals and groups of people. He was also convicted of homicide, the first such conviction at a war crimes trial, for "personally killing, maiming and torturing a substantial, albeit unidentified number of people." Göth was...

The Man Who Survived Two Atomic Bombs

The Man Who Survived Two Atomic Bombs Some 260,000 people survived the atomic bomb attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II, but Japanese engineer Tsutomu Yamaguchi was one of the very few who endured the horror of both blasts and lived to the tell the tale  Tsutomu Yamaguchi was preparing to leave Hiroshima when the atomic bomb fell. The 29-year-old naval engineer was on a three-month-long business trip for his employer, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, and August 6, 1945, was supposed to be his last day in the city. He and his colleagues had spent the summer working long hours on the design for a new oil tanker, and he was looking forward to finally returning home to his wife, Hisako, and their infant son, Katsutoshi. At around 8:15 am, Tsutomu was going to his workplace when he noticed the B-29 in the sky of Hiroshima. An object attached to a parachute dropped from the bomber, and then a flashlight was seen rushing towards the city. Tsutomu described it as a “magnesium ...

The Pins by Anna Göldi: the story of the last beheaded witch in Europe

The Pins by Anna Göldi: the story of the last beheaded witch in Europe Kilkenny, Ireland, 1324: Petronilla de Meath is burned at the stake accused of being a "witch". The woman may not know, but the trail of blood that traces her innocent death will continue for another 458 years, until 1782. In that year Anna Göldi, the last witch killed in Europe, dies. The story of Anna Göldi Anna was born in Sennwald, Switzerland, in 1734, the fourth of eight children, into a wealthy family. His father was the grandson of a prestigious local judge, from whom he inherits his own seal. Due to disagreements with the mayor of the town regarding land and direct aggression, the family falls into ruin, forcing the eight brothers to find jobs in more affluent homes. Anna changes city, probably to avoid the ridicule of her fellow villagers, and goes to Maienfeld, in the Canton of Grisons, where she becomes the servant of Mayor Enderlin. She then moved to Sax to work as a baker's maid, and in 1...

The Alliances in the Genesis of World War I (end): The Alliances of Powers on the Eve of War

Image
The Alliances in the Genesis of World War I (end): The Alliances of Powers on the Eve of War By 1912, both the Triple Alliance and the Triple Understanding had become established characteristics of international relations.. Examining the coherence of both systems of alliance was a common issue in memorandum and official correspondence, but also in letters and journals from experts and decision-makers. Whenever a crisis in international relations arises, the current situation of alliances and the possible impacts on their future would be considered. Austria-Hungary's stance on the First Moroccan Crisis and its effect on its ally Germany; Russia's setback in 1909 following the British and French withdrawal signals; and Germany's disapproval of the Monarchy of Habsburg's bet on the crisis of the European Union the winter of 1912-1913 were the most significant examples of help alliances contributed to reducing the crisis in the last decade before 1914. The alliance between ...

THE BATTLE OF BRITAIN-July 10th 1940, just 83 Years ago-

THE BATTLE OF BRITAIN-July 10th 1940, just 83 Years ago- On This Day in the Battle of Britain:JULY 10th 1940- The heavy clouds of the dawn along with the driving rain made most of the pilots turn over and take advantage of a 'lie-in'. In these conditions, the Germans made the most of the cloud cover and made photographic reconnaissance flights over possible and probable targets, but the Dornier 17s that usually made these flights often suffered heavy losses. But being as no 'scramble' calls were made during the early hours of this day by Fighter Command it was believed that the German Luftwaffe enjoyed the freedom of the skies although most kept out over the sea but keeping the distant English coastline in sight. 0730hrs (7.30am): 66 Squadron (Spitfires, Coltishall) got a 'scramble' call and one section took off into the driving rain after the Chain Home radar station at West Beckham had picked up a blip on the radar.  (RAF aircraft carried a sensor unit attache...

The Unsolved Mystery Behind The Death Of Buffalo Jim Barrier, The ‘Most Colorful Character’ In Las Vegas

Image
The Unsolved Mystery Behind The Death Of Buffalo Jim Barrier, The ‘Most Colorful Character’ In Las Vegas Though James "Buffalo Jim" Barrier's 2008 death was declared accidental and likely related to cocaine use, his family is convinced that he was murdered by his enemies. To many who knew him, “Buffalo Jim” Barrier seemed invincible. Broad-shouldered with wild, black hair, Barrier was a Las Vegas legend who’d made a name for himself as an auto repairman, a wrestling promoter, and a friend to the variety of characters who make Vegas the unique place it is. When he was found dead in April 2008, much of the city was devastated. But though a coroner found that the 55-year-old had died from cardiomyopathy — inflammation of the heart — after supposedly using cocaine, Barrier’s four daughters are adamant that their father was murdered. They point to a number of eerie details surrounding his case, including his missing ID and cash, the shifting testimony of the woman he spent...

LANGUAGE, UNIVERSAL

Image
LANGUAGE, UNIVERSAL The invention of a universal language, which men of all nations could understand and through which they could communicate their thoughts, has always been one of the dreams of certain philologists.  In the seventeenth century, Dalgarno had written his Ars Signorum to prove the possibility of a universal character and a philosophical language. About the same time Bishop Wilkins published his Essay towards a Real Character and a Philosophical Language; and even the mathematical Leibnitz entertained the project of a universal language for all the world.  It is not, therefore, surprising, that when the so-called Leland Manuscript stated that the Freemasons concealed a "Universal Language," John Locke, or whoever was the commentator on that document, should have been attracted by the statement. He says: A universal language has been much desired by the learned of many ages. It is a thing rather to be wished than hoped for. But it seems the Masons pretend to have...

Bayajidda, The Founder Of Hausa States

Image
Bayajidda, The Founder Of Hausa States Bayajidda is arguably the most unique story of the Hausa people, despite it being considered a legend by most historians.  It takes a lot of weight knowing that this single individual has shaped the way the Hausa people view themselves as well as their common origin, myth or legend, the story of Bayajidda is indeed one that should be known. Early Life: Born Abuyazid (popularly called Abuyazidu) to the king of Baghdad Abdullah. However, not much is known about the origin of Bayajidda – being the dominant name of Abuyazid (translatable as ‘the father of Yazid).  It is said that when Queen Zidam conquered Baghdad, Bayajidda fled Iraq with forty servants to enter Nigeria through Lake Chad by the town of Ngala and arrive in Gazargamu which is present-day Borno state. Occupation: In the legend of Bayajidda, his occupation wasn’t the major crux of the story, but it can be understood that he enjoyed horse riding as well as hunting; as those were ...
