The Ullfallet Murder

about 1 h 45 min · 1–4 players

Gustav Adolf parish in Värmland, the night of Pentecost, 22 May 1822. At the lonely croft of Ullfallet, the crofter Mattes Olsson and his wife Lisa Jansdotter are murdered, the house is set on fire, and the stolen goods are buried. Only a twelve-year-old herd boy escapes — and it is his testimony that convicts the two men from Gumma, who both deny it but are sentenced to beheading and quartering. A real case from Swedish legal history: the actual investigation, the actual verdict, and the execution at Kroppheden in December 1823. Everyone involved has been dead for generations, and the sources for the case accompany it.
