The Creepiest Family Cult Ever
Incest, homicide…Ugh! Don’t blame me if you can’t sleep tonight
The month of December 1970. Santa Cruz, Spain: Walter Trankler, a well-known doctor in local circles, had just heard a knock at his door. His housemaid Sabine was busy doing her chores in the kitchen.
Mr Trankler opened the door and found two men, who introduced themselves as Harald Alexander and Frank, the father and brother of Sabine. The doctor brought the 15-year-old Sabine from the kitchen and allowed the family to have a private conversation near the front door.
Mr Trankler wouldn’t have wanted to overhear their chat, but the appearance of the two men had struck him. Both of them were covered in mud, certainly no way to dress up to meet their family. So, the doctor’s instincts told him to eavesdrop on the conversation, and what he heard would send a shudder of cold down his spine.
The father and the brother had just murdered three of their family members- the 42-year old mother Dagmar and Sabine’s two sisters; the 15-year-old Petra and the 17-year-old Marina.
