In terms of serial killers you’ve “never heard of,” this case may be the one. 


Dismembered body parts, hacked apart with saws, began appearing in Hanover, Germany during the 1970s. First, a torso, followed by a leg, and then arms and a thorax! The atrocities only kept coming.


This “human puzzle” has confused investigators for nearly half a century.
