In 1916, on the outskirts of Budapest, authorities uncovered a suburban nightmare. Dozens of metal barrels buried around a quiet home contained the pickled corpses of women – victims of Béla Kiss, a tinsmith who charmed, defrauded, and murdered through newspaper ads. Dubbed the “Monster of Cinkota,” Kiss vanished into the chaos of World War I and was never caught. His trail of blood stretched across Europe and, some say, even to New York. Over a century later, his fate remains a chilling mystery.SURVEYObscurata Discussed FACEBOOK GROUPThe BOOKBY US A COFFEESubscribe to our PATREONEMAIL us your storiesJoin us on INSTAGRAMJoin us on TWITTERJoin us on FACEBOOKVisit our WEBSITESources:https://www.mentalfloss.com/posts/bela-kiss-hungary-serial-killerhttps://books.google.comhttps://oddlyhistorical.wordpress.com/2015/05/04/bela-kiss-hungarys-serial-killer/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C3%A9la_Kisshttps://lost-in-history.com/2021/08/18/bela-kiss-hungarys-serial-killer/Thanks so much for listening, and I'll catch up with you again on Thursday.Sarah xxSURVEY https://podcastsurvey.typeform.com/to/mDi5IVFf Hosted on Acast.
