The Woman Who Came from Nowhere

Horror Stories
About this episode
In 1970, a woman was found dead in Bergen, Norway’s remote Ice Valley — burned, unidentified, and surrounded by a trail of strange clues. Decades later, no one knows who she was, why she came, or what really happened in those final hours. Today, we only refer to her as The Isdal Woman.
