text:
Peter Niers was a German serial killer and bandit who was executed on 16 September 1581 in Neumarkt in der Oberpfalz, some 40 km from Nuremberg. Based on confessions extracted from him and his accomplices under torture, he was convicted of 544 murders, including 24 fetuses cut out of pregnant women—allegedly, the fetal remains were to be used in magical rituals and for acts of cannibalism. Information about Niers is based on contemporary ballads, "true crime" reports, and official warrants circu
