00:00In the haunting shadows of 1920s Dusseldorf, a city teetering on the brink of darkness,
00:07a monstrous presence lurked.
00:10This is the bone-chilling tale of Peter Curtin, a figure whose name would be forever etched
00:15in the annals of horror.
00:18Born into a destitute family, Curtin's early years were marred by abuse and neglect.
00:25It was here, in the squalor of his upbringing, that the seeds of his malevolence were sown.
00:32By the age of nine, he had already committed his first known act of violence.
00:37As the years passed, his heinous acts escalated in both frequency and brutality.
00:43Dusseldorf, an industrial hub blooming in the aftermath of World War I, was completely
00:49unprepared for the terror that Peter Curtin would unleash.
00:54He had an uncanny ability to blend into the crowd, disguised as an ordinary man with a
00:59wife and a steady job.
01:02But underneath this veneer of normalcy was a mind consumed by an insatiable thirst for blood.
01:09The people of Dusseldorf were soon to discover that they lived amongst a beast.
01:14His modus operandi was both varied and chilling.
01:18He would strike at random, choosing victims from all walks of life.
01:23Young, old men, women, and children, none were safe from his grasp.
01:29His methods of murder were gruesome, utilizing knives, hammers, and scissors to exact his
01:35bloody toll.
01:37The sheer randomness of his attacks created an atmosphere of pervasive fear, a dark cloud
01:43that hung heavy over the city.
01:46Rumors began to spread like wildfire, with whispers of a vampire prowling the streets,
01:52feeding on the city's lifeblood.
01:55The press gave him the moniker, the Vampire of Dusseldorf, a name that captured the true
02:00horror of his deeds.
02:03What made Curtin even more terrifying was his cunning.
02:06He would often taunt the police, sending letters boasting of his crimes and hinting at more
02:11to come.
02:13This psychological warfare only intensified the manhunt.
02:18Despite the authorities' best efforts, he remained elusive, slipping through their
02:22grasp time and again.
02:25The city's collective paranoia reached fever pitch, with citizens too terrified to walk
02:30the streets after dark.
02:33Finally, in 1930, after years of relentless terror, Peter Curtin was captured.
02:40His arrest brought a wave of relief, but the revelations of his confessions were beyond
02:45anything the people could have imagined.
02:48He provided chilling details of his crimes, recounting each with a disturbing lack of
02:53remorse.
02:55In total, he confessed to 68 crimes, including murders, attempted murders, and assaults.
03:02The trial of Peter Curtin was a media sensation, drawing widespread attention both in Germany
03:08and abroad.
03:10Psychologists and criminologists examined him, attempting to understand the mind of
03:14a man capable of such evil.
03:18The court, after hearing the harrowing testimonies and confessions, sentenced him to death.
03:24On July 2, 1931, Peter Curtin, the Vampire of Dusseldorf, met his end by guillotine.
03:32With his death, a sense of closure was hoped for, but the scars he left behind on the city
03:38and its people would never fully heal.
03:42The story of Peter Curtin serves as a grim reminder of the darkness that can reside within
03:47the human soul and the terror that one individual can inflict on an entire community.
