In Germany a local tourism office came up with an idea, and that idea includes serial killers in an advent calendar for children and that German advent calendar for children has become a hot seller since word got out it has a picture of a notorious serial killer on it. The cartoon calendar shows Fritz Haarmann, who murdered 24 young men and boys in the 1920s, lurking under a tree with a hatchet next to the door for December 1. Below him, Santa Claus hands out presents to children in a festive-looking Hanover. And this year that calendar it is attracting wider attention because top-selling newspaper Bild questioned whether the use of the murderer in a children’s calendar was in good taste. Filed In: |
