Description

<div>Between 1959 and 1987, a series of brutal attacks in the forests and lakesides of Finland and Sweden left multiple victims dead – and investigators haunted by their similarities. From Tulilahti and Lake Bodom to Appojaure and the deck of the Viking Sally, the victims were ordinary people, asleep and vulnerable, when violence struck without warning. Some cases were solved. Most weren’t. <br>What links these murders? Could they be the work of the same person, or do they reveal something darker about the illusion of safety in the wild?<br>This is a special episode that brings together cases previously featured on <em>Evidence Locker</em>, uncovering the patterns, suspects, and unanswered questions that continue to grip true crime researchers to this day.</div><br><div> <strong>Books:</strong> Read collections of <a href="https://evidencelockerpodcast.com/books">The Evidence Locker Files</a>, available in print and digital editions.<br><strong>Follow us on:</strong> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCc-3vROB1gpEWM1YoEr9vLA">YouTube</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/evidencelockerpodcast/">Facebook</a>, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/evidencelockerpodcast/">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://x.com/EvLockPodcast">X</a>, <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@evidencelockerpodcast">TikTok</a><br><strong>For more information, visit:</strong> <a href="https://apple.co/3td9ivp">Evidence Locker Website</a><br><strong>Listen ad-free:</strong> Visit our page at <a href="https://www.patreon.com/evidencelocker">Patreon</a><br><strong>50% of Evidence Locker Patreon proceeds are donated to support the </strong><a href="https://www.doenetwork.org/"><strong>Doe Network</strong></a><strong>, solving international cold cases.
