On a warm summer night in 1960, on the shores of a tranquil lake in Finland a group of teenagers were brutally murdered by an unknown assailant and the case has remained unsolved to this day. They were hacked to death while they slept in their tent, in an attack so frenzied and horrifying, it is said to have inspired the famous Friday the 13th movies. Join me as we explore this unsolved case and delve into the mysteries that surround the Slaughter at Lake Bodom…
Lake Bodom is a little over 12 miles from the Finnish capital of Helsinki, near the town of Espoo. And on the night of June 4, 1960, it's where two teenage couples — Nils Gustafsson, 18; Irmeli Björklund, 15; Seppo Boisman, 18; and Tuulikki Mäki, 15 — set up tents to camp out and enjoy the pristine wilderness. It was only a year since the murders that happened in the Tulilahti camping area, so the parents of the girls weren’t exactly thrilled to let their daughters go on the trip, but they let them go last minute. They rode their motorcycles to the lake’s bay and set up camp. They then pitched their tent near the local beach, where they spent the rest of the evening drinking, talking, and barbecuing before retiring for the night around midnight. The boys claim to have woken up a few hours after falling asleep and went fishing for a short while and returned to sleep. But between the hours of 4 a.m. and 6 a.m., the teenagers were attacked.
