about 1 h 30 min · 1–4 players

Småland, December 1803. At the soldier's croft by Hökhult in Fröderyd parish, court equerry Herman Christian Tigerschiöld was found buried beneath the barn floor, murdered in the house where he had stayed the night on his way to Stockholm. The couple who had lived at the croft were missing — and were not caught until years on the run, recognized at a barn dance. Both were executed at Komstad gallows hill in September 1804. A true case from Swedish legal history: the same investigation, the same accused and the same verdict. Everyone involved has been dead for more than two centuries, and everything in the file comes from public records — the sources accompany the case.
