Berlin, 1940.
 The city is shrouded in blackout darkness as air raids echo overhead and Nazi propaganda blares from the radios. But something even more sinister is stalking the streets and trains of the German capital—an invisible killer moving through the night, targeting women on their way home.

By day, Paul Ogorzow was a loyal Nazi Party member and railway worker. By night, he became one of Berlin’s most terrifying serial killers—using the cover of wartime blackouts and the city’s S-Bahn rail network to hunt, assault, and murder unsuspecting passengers. His reign of terror left the public in panic.

In this episode of Lurk, we uncover the chilling true story of the S-Bahn Killer, exploring:

• How Ogorzow used the chaos of war to hide in plain sight
• The Nazi regime’s desperate attempts to suppress news of the murders
• The investigation that led to his downfall

Travel with us into the shadows of wartime Berlin, where paranoia, propaganda, and murder intertwined.
