Alle kennen die Geschichte vom Londoner Jack The Ripper, aber kennst du schon die Geschichte vom Hamburger Frauenmörder Fritz Honka?

В декабре всегда хочется новогоднего настроения, поэтому я начинаю серию новогодних сказок. В этот раз, я кратко расскажу сказку о снежной девушке Снегурочке. Вы узнаете ответы на вопросы: кто такая снегурочка, как она появилась и как она исчезла. 

Внимание: эта история НЕ про внучку Деда Мороза. Внучку Деда Мороза тоже зовут Снегурочка, но это другая девушка.
