Episode notes

A man writes a word. Crosses it out. Hours later, he’s found naked, dying in the passenger seat of his own car. He says four men were with him—but no one else is there.

In this episode, we unravel the haunting final hours of Günther Stoll, a food engineer from West Germany whose death in 1984 remains one of the country’s most baffling unsolved cases. At the center of it all: a cryptic note—YOGTZE—a string of letters that may be a call sign, a food additive, a Hebrew word, or nothing at all.

We explore:

  • The psychological unraveling that preceded his disappearance
  • The eerie collapse at a pub hours before his death
