Murder on Lake Bodom: Finland’s Coldest ...

Crimehub Studios
About this episode

In the summer of 1960, four teenagers embarked on a carefree camping trip to the serene shores of Finland's Lake Bodom. What began as a weekend of love and laughter turned into one of the country’s most haunting murder mysteries. By morning, three were brutally slain, and the lone survivor, Nils Gustafsson, had no memory of the attack—only a shadowy figure with glowing red eyes. Decades of theories, suspects, and shocking DNA evidence have done little to solve the case, leaving haunting questions about the true identity of the killer. Join us as we unravel the chilling story of the Lake Bodom murders and explore whether the monster still walks among us.
