Description

High in the frozen Alps, a man flees through the snow, his breath ragged, his body battered. Blood—his own or someone else’s—drips onto the ice. A shadow looms. A blade flashes. Darkness takes him. Fast forward 5,300 years. When hikers stumble upon his withered body, they unknowingly unleash one of the most chilling archaeological mysteries of all time. This is Ötzi, the Iceman—a prehistoric murder victim whose discovery would captivate scientists... and possibly awaken something sinister. 🔎 What we uncover in this episode: The murder mystery frozen in time—was Ötzi a shaman, a warrior, or a fugitive? Ancient tattoos that could be the world’s earliest acupuncture treatment. The tools, weapons, and last meal of a man from the Copper Age. The deadly "Iceman Curse"—is it just coincidence, or did something awaken with Ötzi’s discovery? As scientists piece together the details of his violent end, a series of strange and tragic deaths befall those who worked with his remains. Coincidence? Or a warning from beyond the grave? And if Ötzi’s curse isn’t eerie enough, stay tuned until the end for this week’s listener story—supernatural museum activity and possibly a chocolate stealing mummy? Watch the video version here.
