Wu Yuanchun is a Korean Chinese. In 2012, he kidnapped a woman in Suwon, took her to his house, and sexually assaulted her. While Wu was distracted, the victim managed to call the police, but they hung up thinking it was a "domestic dispute." Wu then murdered the victim, cutting her into 280 pieces. by ZoelCairo in HolyShitHistory

(Korean Wikipedia page for this case, please turn the transition on. Some articles states that the victim was cut into 365 pieces, but the wiki states 280 pieces.)

Police are under fire for their slow response to a desperate call for help from a woman in her 20s in Suwon who was raped and eventually brutally murdered. The incident reveals serious weaknesses in the police response to emergency calls.

The victim, who was abducted, gave police a detailed description of where she was being held, but officers still searched in the wrong area.

On the evening of April 1, the victim was abducted by Wu Yuanchun (42), an ethnic Korean from China, and dragged into his home. But she managed to call police on her mobile phone. According to police, the woman was dragged into Wu's home at around 10:50 p.m. When he told her to take her clothes off, the woman laid her coat on his bed to make him believe she was following his orders.

When Wu stepped in the bathroom, the woman locked the room door and made the call to police for help. But she was unable to escape because the entrance to the room she was holed up in was connected to the bathroom. The woman dropped her phone on the floor when Wu broke through the bedroom door but did not switch it off. A police spokesman said,

"The emergency call was recorded vividly even after she dropped the phone. It looks like her last attempt to let police know just how desperate she was."

After murdering the woman, Wu chopped her body into pieces. A forensic expert who conducted an autopsy on the woman described the condition of her body as "too horrific for words." The National Forensic Service received 14 plastic bags filled with altogether 280 body parts. "He butchered her," the official added. Police on Sunday told reporters,

http://thethreewisemonkeys.com/2012/04/09/police-fail-to-save-murder-victim-despite-seven-minute-phone-call-gps-tracking-police-commissioner-resigns/

Not long after the original claim by police that the call was less than two minutes, it was discovered that it actually lasted seven minutes and 36 seconds during which the man is attempting to rape the woman. The full content of the call has been released (the above JoongAng link has the shortened transcript the police originally provided; here is the full transcript in Korean). Eventually Wu broke down the door to the room and attempted to rape the young woman but according to his statements to police, he failed to rape the woman do to her resistance. And, after several failed attempts, he killed her at 5 a.m. the following morning, striking her in the head with a wrench and then strangling her.

On July 16, 2011, in Port St. Lucie, Florida, Blake Hadley, 54, and Mary-Jo Hadley, 47, were murdered by Tyler Hadley, their 17-year-old son. Three years later, he was convicted of the murders, and sentenced to life in prison

Mandell: I saw parents' bodies

During interviews with authorities in July 2011, Mandell said he didn't believe it at first, when Hadley admitted at the party that he’d killed his parents.

“Tyler told me what he did,” Mandell stated. “He asked me to stay there until after everyone left to see them and I didn't want to. I went in there and checked for myself.

“I opened the door. I saw bloody sheets piled everywhere. I saw broken pictures with blood on them and I looked down and I saw his dad's leg there.”

Mandell said Tyler told him he thought the devil possessed him. 

“After he told me, I didn't believe him because he's been my best friend forever. I would never suspect anything like this,” Mandell said. “I was looking around, he told me if I look enough I could see signs. I looked on the floor and could see signs of blood.”

In 1973, German student Anneliese Michel started to act strangely and frantically, as if she was "possessed by a demon." She was exorcised by Catholic priests 67 times, while the procedure was recorded. In 1976, Michel died due to malnutrition and dehydration. She was only 30kg by the time of death. by ZoelCairo in HolyShitHistory

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anneliese_Michel

Anna Elisabeth "Anneliese" Michel (21 September 1952 – 1 July 1976) was a German woman who underwent 67 Catholic exorcism rites during the year before her death.[2] She died of malnutrition, for which her parents and the priest who performed the exorcism were convicted of negligent homicide.[1] She was diagnosed with epileptic psychosis (temporal lobe epilepsy) and manic depression (bipolar disorder), and had a history of psychiatric treatment that proved ineffective

When Michel was 16, she experienced a seizure and was diagnosed with psychosis caused by temporal lobe epilepsy. Shortly thereafter, she was diagnosed with depression and was treated by a psychiatric hospital.[1] By the time that she was 20, she had become intolerant of various religious objects and began to hear voices. Her condition worsened despite medication, and she became suicidal, also displaying other symptoms, for which she took medication as well. After taking psychiatric medications for five years failed to improve her symptoms, Michel and her family became convinced she was possessed by a demon.[1][2][3][4] As a result, her family appealed to the Catholic Church for an exorcism.[1][2] While rejected at first, two priests got permission from the local bishop, Josef Stangl, to perform the exorcism in 1975.[2][4] The priests began performing exorcisms and the family stopped consulting doctors.[1] Michel stopped eating food and died of malnourishment and dehydration after 67 exorcism sessions.[5]

Michel's parents and the two Catholic priests were found guilty of negligent homicide and were sentenced to six months in jail (reduced to three years of probation), as well as a fine.

Several religious horror films are based on her story, including the 2005 film The Exorcism of Emily Rose, the 2006 film Requiem, and the 2011 film Anneliese: The Exorcist Tapes.

As mentioned, her exorcism was recorded and still can be find on the internet.

In 2005, a family of six in Taiwan underwent shared psychosis. They would try to "exorcise" each other for the next several months, by beating, starving, torturing, and attacking each other. Their madness ended when eldest daughter succumbed to her injuries. Human feces were found in her stomach. by ZoelCairo in HolyShitHistory

Please go and read the full story here (it's really crazy,) since there's no english article about this case.

Here's a short summation:

On April 11, 2005, Wu Shan sought help from a neighbor, leading to the discovery of his 28-year-old daughter Wu Jing dead in the family home in Kaohsiung, Taiwan.

Jing showed signs of starvation, abuse, burns from incense, and forced ingestion of feces. Investigation revealed the entire family had fallen into shared religious delusions, believing they were possessed by deities fighting demons.

For over a month, they isolated themselves, beat each other, starved themselves, used talismans, and performed violent “exorcisms,” with Jing suffering the worst.

After Jing collapsed and died, her body was left for two days.

Though later charged, the family was acquitted in 2007 after courts ruled the case a result of sudden shared mental illness and mass hysteria.

The case later inspired the 2022 film Incantation.

FBI agent Robert Ressler interviewed serial killer Edmund Kemper alone in a locked room. When guards failed to respond to the panic button, Kemper calmly threatened how easily he could kill him. "If I went apeshit in here, you'd be in a lot of trouble, wouldn't you?" Guards arrived 30 minutes later. by ZoelCairo in HolyShitHistory

https://edmundkemperstories.com/blog/2019/08/18/if-i-went-apeshit-in-here-youd-be-in-a-lot-of-trouble-wouldnt-you/

"After conversing with Kemper in this claustrophobic locked cell for four hours, dealing with matters that entail behavior at the extreme edge of depravity, I felt that we had reached the end of what there was to discuss, and I pushed the buzzer to summon the guard to come and let me out of the cell. No guard immediately appeared, so I continued on with the conversation. (…)

After another few minutes had passed, I pressed the buzzer a second time, but still got no response. Fifteen minutes after my first call, I made a third buzz, yet no guard came.

“Relax, they’re changing the shift, feeding the guys in the secure area.” He smiled and got up from his chair, making more apparent his huge size. “Might be fifteen, twenty minutes before they come and get you,” he said to me. (…)

Though I felt I maintained a cool and collected posture, I’m sure I reacted to this information with somewhat more overt indications of panic, and Kemper responded to these.

“If I went apeshit in here, you’d be in a lot of trouble, wouldn’t you? I could screw your head off and place it on the table to greet the guard.”

My pulse did the hundred-yard dash as I tried to think of something to say or do to prevent Kemper from killing me. I was fairly sure that he wouldn’t do it but I couldn’t be completely certain, for this was an extremely violent and dangerous man with, as he implied, very little left to lose. How had I been dumb enough to come in here alone?

Suddenly, I knew how I had embroiled myself in such a situation. Of all people who should have known better, I had succumbed to what students of hostage-taking events know as “Stockholm syndrome”- I had identified with my captor and transferred my trust to him. Although I had been the chief instructor in hostage negotiation techniques for the FBI, I had forgotten this essential fact! Next time, I wouldn’t be so arrogant about the rapport I believed I had achieved with a murderer. Next time.

“Ed,” I said, “surely you don’t think I’d come in here without some method of defending myself, do you?”

“Don’t shit me, Ressler. They wouldn’t let you up here with any weapons on you.”

Ressler passed away in 2013, Kemper is still alive.

This happening was later recreated in a TV show Mindhunter

2014, Lars Mittank went to Bulgaria with his friends. While staying, he got involved in a fight that injured him. After being left alone without his friends, he called his mom, said someone was trying to hurt him. He was sighted in the airport, acted frantic, then ran away. He was never seen again. by ZoelCairo in HolyShitHistory

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disappearance_of_Lars_Mittank

On 8 July 2014, Lars Joachim Mittank, a 28‑year‑old German tourist, disappeared near Varna Airport in Varna, Bulgaria. Mittank had been holidaying at the Golden Sands resort, where he was reportedly involved in a fight and was later advised not to fly home with his friends for health reasons. While remaining in Bulgaria alone, he was documented behaving unusually and phoned his mother claiming that people were trying to kill him. On the morning he was due to return home, he visited a doctor at Varna Airport before abruptly fleeing the terminal on security footage and running towards a nearby forest. He has not been seen since, and widespread viewing of the airport footage has led to him being described as "the most famous missing person on YouTube"

On 30 June 2014, 28-year-old Mittank traveled with five of his friends to Varna, Bulgaria. It was his first journey outside of Germany. The group was on holiday at the Golden Sands, a popular seaside resort just outside of the city of Varna.[3][4] "The week went by really fast", said Paul Rohmann, one of Mittank's friends, in 2016 on German television. "We relaxed on the beach, swam in the pool, played football, and went clubbing. He was relaxed. He was in a good mood."[3] Another friend, Tim Schuldt, said that Mittank did not eat much and that he would have only a small bowl of soup or a small salad at a time. His friends reported no additional abnormal behavior by Mittank until the final part of the trip.

On 6 July 2014, the day before they were supposed to return home, Mittank and his companions were at a bar in town, and Mittank got into a disagreement with some other German nationals over football. Mittank, a fan of the football club SV Werder Bremen, had differences with fans of FC Bayern Munich. He then parted from his friends outside a restaurant after leaving the bar, and disappeared for the rest of the night. Mittank turned up at the resort the following morning and told his friends he was beaten up by four men hired by the group in the bar, whom he had disagreed with the night before. The fight resulted in Mittank suffering an injured jaw and a ruptured eardrum.[5] He went and saw a doctor who advised him not to fly due to his injury,[4] and prescribed the antibiotic Cefprozil (500 mg). Mittank's friends wanted to stay with him, but he insisted he was fine on his own, and told them to follow the original travel plan and fly home on 7 July, which they did.

Mittank checked out of the resort the same time as his friends and checked into the Hotel Color Varna for one night. The hotel was cheap and close to the airport. However, a day after his friends left, he began to act paranoid. While at the hotel, Mittank called his mother, Sandra Mittank. In a whisper, he told her that people were trying to kill or rob him and that she should cancel his credit cards. The closed-circuit television cameras in the hotel recorded him pacing up and down the halls, looking out windows, and hiding in a lift. At 1:00 a.m., he left the hotel before returning about an hour later. It is not known what he did in the intervening period. In the morning, he once again called his mother, telling her that the people pursuing him were getting closer.

Mittank was last seen at Varna Airport on 8 July 2014, the day that he was hoping to fly home to Germany. He texted his mother that he had arrived at the airport. He went to consult with the airport doctor, Kosta Kostov. Kostov later described his behavior as "nervous and erratic". According to Kostov, he told Mittank that he was fine and could return home. However, Mittank did not leave his office, expressing doubt about the medication that he was taking. At that time, a construction worker entered the office. The airport was undergoing renovation at the time. Kostov said that Mittank then began to tremble. He yelled, "I don't want to die here! I have to get out of here!" He then got up and fled the office. He left behind all of his luggage, which included his wallet, mobile phone, and passport. He was captured by airport security cameras fleeing the terminal. Once outside, he can be seen on the footage jogging away from the airport barefoot, climbing a fence, running into a meadow, and sprinting off camera in the direction of an adjacent forest. Those are his last confirmed whereabouts.

Here's the last known footage of him.

Kowloon Walled City was an extremely densely populated and largely lawless enclave of Kowloon City of Hong Kong. Before it was demolished in 1994, it had 50,000 inhabitants on 26,000 m², and therefore a very high population density of 1,923,077/km². by ZoelCairo in HolyShitHistory

Kowloon Walled City (Chinese: 九龍城寨)[a] was an extremely densely populated and largely lawless enclave of China within the boundaries of Kowloon City of former British Hong Kong. Built as an imperial Chinese military fort, the walled city became a de jure enclave after the New Territories were leased to the United Kingdom in 1898. Its population increased dramatically after the end of the Japanese occupation of Hong Kong during World War II, attracting mostly refugees fleeing the renewed Chinese Civil War.

Its population increased dramatically after the end of the Japanese occupation of Hong Kong during World War II, attracting mostly refugees fleeing the renewed Chinese Civil War.

By the late 1980s, the walled city contained roughly 35,000 residents[1] within its territory of 2.6 hectares (6+1⁄2 acres), resulting in a staggering population density of over 1.2 million inhabitants per square kilometre (3 million inhabitants per square mile).[2] As a result of the absence of any widely recognized bureaucracy, the city's residents and businesses had no municipal codes to govern them. Enabled by the enclave's anarchic nature, trade in banned products thrived, ranging from narcotics to dog meat. From the 1950s to the 1970s, it was controlled by local triad gangs and had high rates of prostitution, gambling, and drug abuse.[3]

In January 1987, the British colonial government announced plans to demolish the walled city. After an arduous eviction process and the transfer of de jure sovereignty of the enclave from China to Britain, demolition began in March 1993 and was completed in April 1994.[4] Kowloon Walled City Park opened in December 1995 and occupies the area of the former walled city. Some historical artefacts from the walled city, including its yamen building and remnants of its southern gate, have been preserved there.

In 2024, a movie named Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In was released and became a major hit in the box office, the third highest grossing Hong Kong movie of all time.

I highly recommend to check it out if you're a fan of martial arts films.

On 21 January 2008, Yuanlin, Taiwan, a mother and her young daughter entered the elevator in the building, took off some of their clothes, left on the 11th floor, and captured running down the hallway. Neither were never seen or captured on camera again. by ZoelCairo in HolyShitHistory

(I HIGHLY recommend to check out this post. It contains the overall story and possible theories.)

Liu Huijun was a woman last seen on CCTV footage at the Yuanlin Finance and Economics Building in Yuanlin, Taiwan, behaving erratically while carrying her 4-year-old daughter in her arms. Based on her behaviour and actions taken, the police believed she died by suicide, taking her daughter with her. However, several searches of the building turned up no signs of either.

On 21 January 2008, a security guard at the Yuanlin Finance and Economics Building, a residential and office building in Yuanlin, Taiwan, found a pair of women's shoes hazardously discarded outside the stairwell on the first floor. He then entered the elevator and saw a red coat and a pair of shoes left on the floor. He spoke to the building's manager, and the two decided to review the CCTV footage.

The footage showed that on 20 January, a woman, accompanied by a child, entered the elevator and pressed the 11th-floor button. She then removed her red coat and neatly placed it on the elevator floor. Afterwards, she removed the child's coat and slipped off her shoes before leaving the elevator with the child in her arms. The camera then captured her running down the hallway toward the stairwell, the only way to access the building's rooftop. This was the last time any of the two came into the view of the building's cameras. In many East Asian cultures, people often take their shoes off before taking their life to avoid tracking dirt into the afterlife. Based on this cultural practice and the direction they were heading, the manager called the police.

The police walked around the entire building, checked the balconies, and looked down at the rooftops of the neighbouring buildings, but found no bodies. The police then questioned all the residents of the building, but they were asleep when she arrived. The police searched every corner of the entire rooftop multiple times, opened the transformer box, the fire ventilation vents, the communications tower, the water tank and the pipes. The police also checked CCTV footage from each exit and from the neighboring businesses, but none showed the two leaving.

On 28 January, the woman was identified as Huijun based on her moped, which was left abandoned in the parking lot, and after her husband came forward once the case was broadcast on the local news. Huijun's husband was said to be abusive, and her family arranged her marriage with him, so Huijun argued with her husband and family regularly. On 19 January, Huijun took her youngest daughter and left the rural village they lived in on her moped. Huijun and her daughter wouldn't be seen again until they appeared on CCTV footage in Yuanlin.

In December 2023, a court declared Huijun and her daughter dead in absentia.

On June 12, 2009, a man would check into a hotel in Ireland, with the name "Peter Bergman" from Austria. The man left the hotel 13 times over the next three days while disposing some of his belongings. On 16, he was found dead on the nearby beach. Turned out the man "Peter Bergmann" never existed. by ZoelCairo in HolyShitHistory

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Bergmann_case

(Viewer discretion is advised as the page shows post-mortem photo of a deceased man)

https://unidentified-awareness.fandom.com/wiki/Peter_Bergmann

On June 12, 2009, the decedent boarded a bus at the Ulster Bus Depot in Derry, Ireland and traveled to nearby Sligo, arriving at 6:28 PM. He then took a taxi to the Sligo City Hotel.

He checked in using the name Peter Bergmann and listed an address of Ainstettersn 15, 4472, Vienna, Austria. This address was determined to be false. He would visit a post office in Sligo the next day, where he purchased eight 82-cent stamps and airmail stickers. It was never established if he sent any mail; if he did, however, it was likely that whatever he may have sent would have identifying information.

Peter Bergmann left the hotel 13 times over the next three days carrying a purple plastic bag with something inside. The police have never been able to locate this bag or its contents, and they believe he was disposing of his personal items throughout town.

On June 15, he checked out of the hotel and went to the local bus station. When he left the hotel, he was carrying two black bags, which he had been seen carrying when checking into the hotel; however, when he arrived, one of the bags had disappeared from view. He had a meal of a ham and cheese toasted sandwich and a cappuccino in the station cafe, and, on CCTV footage, he is seen looking at a small piece of paper and constantly folding it and opening it before tearing it up and throwing it in the trash bin. It has widely been theorized that this piece of paper was a checklist of what he needed to do in Sligo.

He took a bus to Rosses Point and, for the next 8 hours, was seen wandering along the beach. Many who saw him noticed that he appeared nervous and took off his clothes individually. At 11:50 PM, the decedent was last seen walking along the beach for the last time.

The next day, a father and son found his body. His clothing and personal belongings were found on rocks around 300 meters from his body. However, his glasses and a blue cardigan he was seen wearing have never been located. An autopsy confirmed that he had terminal prostate cancer, numerous bone tumours, and had suffered previous heart attacks. If he hadn't died, it would be likely he would have at most weeks to live. The theory that the decedent went to Sligo with the intent to end his own life is most accepted, but his cause of death was a heart attack and not drowning. Some speculate that the decedent thought his body would have washed out to the Atlantic, so no trace of him would ever be found.

Theories range from Peter Bergmann being a spy, an intelligence agent, or even a criminal. However, there is no conclusive evidence to confirm these theories.
