Summary

We're still on a summer break, but you know we couldn’t stay away from the horror for long.

In this second Best of Fresh Hell special, we’ve got three more unforgettable true crime cases from the archives, all condensed for maximum dread in minimum time.

We start with the heartbreaking murder of Katharina Fellner, a young woman in 1920s Vienna whose brutal death was only kind of solved.

Then we head to Maine for the deeply disturbing case of Sarah Ware, a mother of five found decapitated in 1898, and whose skull was kept as evidence for over a century.

Finally, we revisit the 1958 murder of Malvina Krutz, who was killed in her own home while her son was just in the next room. Her killer was never found.

Three women. Three unsolved cases. And still no justice!
