Vampire from Atlas
The vampire of Atlas ( Swedish : Vampyrmordet ) is the perpetrator of an unsolved murder of a prostitute in Stockholm , Sweden . The body was discovered on May 4, 1932 and received a lot of attention because of the perpetrator's approach.
Sequence of events
The later victim, the prostitute Lilly Lindeström, was last seen by her friend Minnie Jansson about three days before the murder. Jansson stated that Lindeström asked for a condom at around 7 p.m. because she had a customer. After a few hours Jansson knocked on Lindeström's door but got no answer. When she didn't hear from Lindeström in the next few days, she called the police on May 4th. She entered Lindström's apartment and found her body naked on a sofa. The victim had multiple head injuries, likely from a blunt object. The police were also able to determine that the killer had sexual intercourse with his victim. Since the apartment was cleaned by the perpetrator after the murder, the investigators could not find any fingerprints. Later investigations found that the murderer took several liters of blood from his victim. When a bloody ladle was discovered in the apartment, the suspicion arose that the murderer might have drunk Lindeström's blood.
In the absence of solid evidence against any suspect, the case has not yet been resolved.
