Produktbeschreibung
Heinrich Wilson's Christmas Chills True Stories of Horror, Mystery, and the Dark Side of the Holidays Christmas isn't just about joy. It never was. Behind the carols, the candles, and the carefully wrapped lies hides a history soaked in blood and superstition. In Heinrich Wilson's Christmas Chills, nothing is invented. Every story happened - or was recorded as if it did. From pagan sacrifices that gave birth to the holiday itself to modern tragedies that turned Christmas Eve into a nightmare, these are the tales people prefer to forget once the snow melts. Discover the forgotten and the forbidden: - The 1914 truce that ended in ghostly carols echoing across No Man's Land. - The father who photographed his family hours before murdering them all. - Five children who vanished during a house fire that shouldn't have burned. - Krampus - the devil who still walks Europe's streets every December. - The frozen men of Alaska, perfectly preserved, eyes wide open. - The toymaker's underground workshop, where something kept moving long after he died. - The cursed gifts that screamed when touched. - The Christmas murders that bathed the season in blood. - And the choir whose recording sang backward, summoning a word no one should ever repeat: Revocare. No elves. No miracles. No happy endings. Just the truth - and it's colder than you think.
Autorenporträt
Heinrich Wilson is a self-styled cosmic provocateur, weaving satire, myth, and a dash of conspiracy into irreverent tales of humanity's greatest screw-ups. Equal parts historian-wannabe and stand-up philosopher, he's spent years digging through dusty legends, UFO files, and corporate press releases-then reassembling them into laugh-out-loud narratives that ask the questions everyone else was too polite to mention. When he's not rewriting the origin story of civilization, you'll find him arguing with algorithms, hunting down misplaced ancient artifacts (or tacos), and plotting the sequel that explores spirits, ghosts, and the ultimate ghost in the machine.
