about 1 h 30 min · 1–4 players

Villola village in Viksjö parish, Ångermanland, September 1770. Two farmers are arrested for killing their neighbour Micael Ersson, and the court sentences them to beheading and quartering. The sentence is carried out on 12 September 1770 on the hill by Källbäcken in Häggdånger — the execution site that then serves the district court for almost a hundred years. A real case from Swedish legal history: the real investigation, the real verdict and the real execution. Everyone involved has been dead for more than two hundred years, and everything in the file comes from public records — the sources are included with the case.
