94 | The Vampire of Kraków: Karol Kot and the Murders That Shocked Poland
About this episode
This episode explores the chilling case of Karol Kot, known as 'The Vampire of Kraków', who committed a series of brutal stabbings in 1960s Poland.
In 1960s Kraków, Poland, a string of random, brutal stabbings shocked the city and left police hunting a killer with no apparent motive. At first, nobody suspected Karol Kot; a polite, intelligent teenager hiding an obsession with knives and violence. The two murders and multiple attempted murders he committed would earn him the nickname ‘The Vampire of Kraków.’ 📘 Learn more about my latest book Wartime London’s ‘Bonnie and Clyde’: The Crime Spree of Betty Jones and Karl Hulten https://www.pen-and-sword.co.uk/Wartime-Londons-Bonnie-and-Clyde-The-Crime-Spree-of-Betty-Jones-and-Karl-Hulten-Hardback/p/57334 Subscribe to my free newsletter: https://prashganendran.com 📺 Subscribe for video versions YouTube: https://youtube.com/@prashsmurdermap 💡 Support my work Patreon (audio only ad-free episodes): https://www.patreon.com/prashsmurdermap Buy me a coffee: https://ko-fi.com/prashsmurdermap PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/prashsmurdermap 🙏 Thank you for listening.
