The Höxter House of Horrors: New revelations in true crime format!

Höxter-Bosseborn became known for a terrible crime that occurred in an old farmhouse that no longer exists. The case will not be forgotten by the demolition of the “horror house,” but the stories about it remain alive. This week, Kabel 1 is presenting a new episode as part of its “Germany’s most spectacular criminal cases” format, which revolves around the shocking actions of Wilfried and Angelika W. The show will air on Friday, October 18th at 8:15 p.m.

The segment highlights how the couple used personal ads to lure women to their property to commit horrific crimes. Tragically, two of these women did not survive the encounter with the sadistic duo. According to Kabel 1, not only investigators have their say in the show, but also victims and relatives who describe the events from their perspective. The case has also attracted prominent witnesses such as Jan Hofer, Simone Thomalla, Laura Karasek and Sky Du Mont, who share their impressions and opinions on the crimes.

The consequences of the crime

Although there is nothing left to investigate in Bosseborn, the consequences of these actions are still being felt. Wilfried and Angelika W. have already been sentenced to long prison terms. Angelika W. made headlines again when she tried to establish contact with the mother of a murder victim, while Wilfried W. is faced with a possible stay in preventive detention. It is noteworthy that despite the crimes committed in this house, a certain hype arose around the place, which also attracted crime tourists and true crime enthusiasts.

Since the demolition of the house was completed in April 2022, small trees have now been growing on the former property, where many, especially the village community, had wanted the “horror house” to be destroyed as quickly as possible. The excavators razed the house to the ground in a lightning-fast, night-and-dagger operation. These measures have helped to put the place's dark history behind it.

Many reports emphasize that the criminal activity that took place here will not be forgotten, and the importance of this case remains high. It remains to be seen what the reaction to the upcoming program will be and whether it will reignite interest in one of Germany's most horrific crime cases.
