The Murder at Johannishus

about 2 h · 1–4 players

Blekinge, the night between 6 and 7 October 1899. The station clerk is visiting his friend, the young stationmaster, at the lonely railway station at Johannishus, and they drink punch together in the office. The next morning the host is found dead in a potato field with his throat cut, and the station safe stands open and empty — but the visitor says a stranger was along on the journey. A real case from Swedish criminal history: the real investigation, the real confession and the real verdict. Everyone involved has been dead for more than a hundred years, and everything in the file comes from public records — the sources accompany the case.
