Instead of frozen pizza, frozen babies: today's middle European Gothic
Shifting the real-life Gothic gaze away from Austria, we find today's horror story in northwestern Germany. The bodies of three babies were found in a Westphalian freezer. But it's not just what was found that's awful, but also who found them, and how:
The children discovered the frozen babies on Saturday afternoon while their parents were away for the weekend, investigator Martin Feldmann said.
The 18-year-old and his sister had been looking for a frozen pizza and came across a lot of expired food so decided to clean out the freezer.
The teenager then found three identical packets on the bottom of the freezer and opened one and saw the head and arm of an infant that was wrapped in a hand towel, police said.
