THE FACTS, EVENTS AND ACTS IN THIS FILM
ACCURATELY REPRESENT HISTORICAL TRUTH

1930.

Germany, still suffering
from the blow of defeat,

had trouble rebounding
from the collapse of 1918.

During the symbolic presidency
of Marshal Hindenburg,

timid governments succeed one another,

trying to reconcile
the anarchistic forces

that tore apart the Weimar Republic.

The old Prussian military caste

was incorrigible
and didn't forgive the politicians

for what it called a stab in the back.

Still imbued with old Germanic myths
of honour and blood,

it was ready to do anything
to obtain its revenge.

Since the aborted revolution of 1919,

the labor party was divided

and lost any chance at taking power.

Overwhelming war debts
mandated by the Treaty of Versailles

along with financial disorganization

had led to a devaluation such that

in 1923, a piece of bread

cost thousands of marks.

The traditional political parties,
still powerful,

engaged in fierce battles
during each election.

NO EXPERIMENTATION!

For ten years, despite mixed success,

a little man
at the head of the nationalist party

passionately sought the road to power.

He now had 107 mandates
at the National Assembly

and groups of fanatics, the SA.

Germany needed a scapegoat

to justify its misfortune.

It had to personalize
the spirit of good and evil.

Adolf Hitler decided that the good
would be the Germanic race,

and the evil, the Jews and communists.

The SA was spreading terror under
the indifferent eye of a weak power.

The people, left to their own devices,

miserable, disappointed by all,

no longer knowing where to turn
since the collapse of former structures,

wandered in search of a bit of food
and a bit of work.

The world crisis of 1929

served to worsen
the disorganization of the State.

Hundreds of thousands were unemployed.

Hunger, misery, social unrest,

fear, harassment, everything
foreshadowed a regime of violence.

Political crimes were rampant
as were others.

A bizarre criminal was on the rampage
in Düsseldorf,

already nicknamed
"the Vampire of Düsseldorf".

- Anything new, Captain?
- Do you have any idea?

You said you had a lead.

The public has a right to know.

I have nothing to say.

They say you're letting him continue
to stop people...

You're inventing that garbage
in your rags.

I swear, if it were up to me...

- So?
- Nothing. They're all clean.

- What do we do?
- Get them out of here.

Go.

Quick.

Schroeder, Beck, Lehndorf.

Look at this.

"The body of Maria-Anne

is at the location marked with a cross."

"Yours sincerely."

At my house, in my own mailbox.

And what are you doing?

You're incompetent.

And who is this Maria-Anne?

We weren't notified
of her disappearance.

Probably a girl from the country
with no ties here.

We can't put an officer on each girl.

Meanwhile, it's chaos
and everyone's laughing at us.

Schroeder, alert the brigade
and get the car.

BREAD AND WORK

Here. It's this, isn't it, sir?

Yes. How much?

One hundred marks, sir.

- Here you go.
- Thank you.

- Goodbye, sir.
- Miss.

Can I help you?

I want this.

125 marks, sir.

- Yes. With a ribbon.
- Very good.

Kürten!

Do you know what time it is?
Am I paying you to do nothing?

I don't need guys like you.
And screw your union!

You're all riff-raff.

I'm not forcing anyone to stay.

There are more than enough jobless guys.

And what are you waiting for?

Do I need to help you?

THE VAMPIRE STRIKES AGAIN
ANOTHER YOUNG GIRL KILLED

Mr. Kürten, it's me.

I have your shirt.

- Thank you.
- Do you need anything else?

- No, thank you.
- Are you going out this evening?

Please be nice.

When you come home, knock on my door.

I'll sleep better knowing you're home.

With everything that's going on now.

For a single woman,
it's nice to have a man around.

You feel much safer.

Good night.

What pretty little feet you need
to fit into these.

Exactly. Make yourself useful.

Dear little Anna,
you're driving me crazy.

Excuse me. I have to undress.

- That doesn't bother me, you know.
- It bothers me.

Will I see you later?

- Possibly.
- Thank you.

- But not for sure.
- You're terrible.

Pardon me.

Anna, a gift for you. From an admirer.

"Would you have a drink with me?"

Who is it?

- The regular who sits near the orchestra.
- I see.

- Give this to your girlfriend.
- Thank you.

Anna, hurry up!
They're getting wound up.

That's why they're here.

Anna!

Bravo!

Bravo, Anna!

You wanted to buy me a drink?

I didn't say I would accept.

What would you like?

Champagne unless it's too expensive
for you.

- Did I hurt you earlier?
- No.

Thank you for the gift.

- Did you like it?
- A lot.

- I come to see you often.
- I know. Every evening.

You know, I love your voice.

Really? You're very nice.

I think I could do anything for you.

Really? So go home and
get to bed quickly.

Have sweet dreams.
Excuse me. They're waiting.

Thank you for agreeing
to keep me company.

You see, I love the ambiance of dances.

Unfortunately, a leg injury
I received in the war

prevents me from dancing.

I hope that doesn't upset you.

Dancing isn't important to us.

Don't you agree, Paula?

A bottle of Val du Rhin, please.

Allow me to introduce myself.

My name is Karl.

My name is Rosa and she's Paula.

Are you from Düsseldorf, ladies?

No, we're both from Zülpich.

I've lived in Düsseldorf for six months,

but my friend just moved here.

Working in the city
is much nicer for us.

And what do you do, may I ask?

Well, the thing is,

I'm working for a family
until I find something better.

- And you?
- I don't know yet.

I'm looking for a job. Anything.

- Apparently, it's difficult.
- Very.

Cheers.

I may be able to do something for you.

I have many friends. Lawyers, doctors.

And such charming young ladies
as yourself might interest them.

To receive clients, for example.

See? I told you we needed to get out
and meet people.

Ladies, gentlemen,

to better protect the
city's inhabitants,

a Prefectoral decree

orders the closure
of all nighttime establishments

at 2:00 a.m.

Until further notice.

I can't do anything about it.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

That's why, if you'll allow me,
I'll accompany you home.

So do you live together?

Unfortunately, it's not possible.
I live with my employers.

Paula had to find something
in a girls' hostel.

Temporarily, yes.

Here we are. This is where I live.

My employers' apartment
is very luxurious

but if you saw the room
they gave me upstairs...

It's something.

I hope to see you again.

Certainly, now that I have your address.

See you tomorrow.

Once you've found something for her,

think of me too.

I promise.

Are you tired?

Not tonight. I'm so happy.

If you're not too tired,

I'd like to take a walk
with you in the park.

Your arm. May I?

It's right here. You'll see.

Mr. Karl, what are you doing?

Mr. Karl, I beg you.

Be nice. Let's go home.

You're frightening me. Mr. Karl.

You're hurting me. Let me go!

Please, Mr. Karl.

No! Let me go, Mr. Karl! No!

Help! No!

Let me go!

The vampire!

Time to eat.

You're not going to let me down?

Can't do anything, friend.
Rules are rules.

Time is time.

- The union is strict.
- You crack me up.

Instead of talking,
you could've filled my bags.

And I could've left.

A girl in Rosenstrasse park.

You wonder what the cops are doing.

This time there was a witness. A girl.

Description and all.

I don't think
the vampire will get very far.

Heil Hitler.

How is it

that you're the site
with the lowest membership?

You don't know what's good for you?

Two hundred marks per membership

and the guarantee of keeping your job.

You don't know our bosses.

We'll take care of the bosses.

- What do we have to do?
- Sign. That's it.

COMMISSIONER MOMBERG

The vampire!

Mr. Kürten.

Allow me, Mrs. Schulz.

You're very kind, Mr. Kürten.

It's very nice meeting people like you.

Nowadays, nobody cares anymore.

And the line?

Some people have nerve.

Here's your bread.

Thank you.

Miss Rosa, why did you tell the police
it was me?

Why did you do that?

Do you really think I could have?

It's impossible.

You can't really think that.

When I saw the newspaper
that morning, I was shaken.

Poor little Paula.

If it were me,
you think I would've come?

I beg you. Help me. Save me.

I have to hide like a criminal.

I can't take it anymore.

You know I'm innocent,

that I need you in order to prove it.

Thank you.

Faster, my God.
It may already be too late.

- Did you see anything strange?
- No.

Bastard. Our only witness.

You're not buying me a drink tonight?

Yes.

- Champagne?
- Yes.

Hans! Champagne.

- You know, you surprise me.
- Why?

For the way I treated you yesterday.
Do you like it or what?

Coming from you,
it doesn't displease me.

That's good.

You're strange.

But I like you. What do you do?

Your friends are here.

Good evening, darling.

Good evening.

No.

Give me a cup of coffee.

Move over.

Are you coming?

It's beautiful, isn't it?

I wish it were always night.

Come. I live across the street.

COMMUNISTS

Well, come in.

So this is my place.

Do you like it?

Listen to me!

Don't stay here.
We'll call you when we have work.

Now, go home!

Get out of here!

Bread! Work!

The gates!

Take aim!

Fire!

You have to take things as they are.

My poor Hans always told me that.

You're very good here.

And I'll take care of you.

And you needn't worry about the rent.

You'll find work again one day.

You know, I prefer a tenant like you.

These days, you don't know
who you could end up with.

Thank you, Mrs. Loebel.

You're welcome.

Make sure you go to bed early tonight.

It'll do you good
rather than going out God knows where.

Good evening, sir.

- Will you take me home?
- Of course.

- Excuse us.
- Good evening.

If you wish.
It's not far from your place.

And besides...

I have the impression
I'm the one who made him flee tonight.

You enjoy making him jealous.
Is he very much in love?

I like him a lot. That's the way it is.

Don't make him suffer too much.

It's too easy.

Good evening. Are you alone?

I live next door.
Would you like to come with me?

Well? My goodness, you don't talk much.

Do you have a cigarette?

You changed your...

Anna?

Anna?

Yes, Mr. Prefect.

Unfortunately, no doubt.
Exactly the same evidence. It's him.

Very strange indeed.
A man for the first time.

It proves that the experts...

Excuse me?

Okay.

Yes, I will...

Understood.

Certainly, Mr. Prefect.

Goodbye, Mr. Prefect.

Well, now we're in trouble.

Do you know who the victim is?
The parents just identified him.

The son of the Beckmann foundry family.

We have 15 days to find the perpetrator.

- What's their problem?
- The prefecture?

The orders are from Berlin.

As soon as big industry is involved,
the minister's interested.

I want to know what he was doing
in that kind of neighbourhood at night.

You think the family
really wants it known?

Either we move or we do nothing.

It'll come back on us.

I know.

Okay. Well...

Let's go. So?

All he had on him was an address book.

Interesting?

Barmaids, actresses from nightclubs.

It's not much.

It's better than nothing. Let's dig.

At least it'll look like
we're doing something.

All brigades on alert tonight.

I'm finishing the eyebrows. Wait.

Now the eyes.

Close your eyes.

This liner isn't working.

Wait.

Open your eye. Open!

On the inside. Wait.

Don't make that face. Listen!

There.

I'm almost finished.

Poor soul!

You're suffering, huh?

There.

A bit of lipstick.

Open your mouth.

There, like that.

Close. Lick your lips.

Yes.

What a look!

Wait, it's not finished.
A bit of powder.

Just a bit.

A real young girl.

There. Look at yourself. You're cute.

Look in the mirror. What do you think?

Anna, the cops. It's a raid!

- Are you in order?
- Search all the dressing rooms.

This way, you two. Hurry up.

Next.

Next.

Your papers.

Peter Kürten. Profession?

Artist?

Unemployed.

Unemployed artist.

So?

No, it's not that one either.

Okay, you can go.

Next.

Are you sure it's him?

You bet. I can't forget him.

Honestly, I don't understand you.

Me neither. It's hard to explain.

When I saw him
in front of me, I was scared.

Scared? I don't understand why.

That's not what I mean.

He looked at me. You can't understand.

You can't kill a man like that.

He isn't a man.

Precisely.

You're a real idiot.

What do you want?
It's not our job to help the cops.

That I agree with.

Darn, it's getting late.

I'm leaving.

Good evening.

Don't be afraid.

I just wanted to thank you.

Don't be afraid.

It's funny. You never laugh.

The sun is strange. I'm not used to it.

But I like it. Don't you?

You don't like anything others do.

I was in the country before, two years.

I was fine.

The boss's son was named Joann.

Us kids slept in the barn.

We cooked potatoes in the ashes.

There was a lime tree
beside the chicken coop.

One day, I stole a chicken.

They buried me in the
sand up to my neck.

All day.

In the sun.

Yoo hoo! Peter!

Yoo hoo!

Peter!

- Does your mother know you're with me?
- Why?

We're alone and she might get ideas.

Are you in a hurry to go home?

No.

I adore you. Come.

- Will you take me to the Sunday dance?
- I have to go to Berlin.

- Wolfgang, the vampire.
- What?

Peter!

What's wrong with him? He's afraid.

Peter!

Yes.

No.

Don't ever forget.
Don't look at the man.

Look at the knife.

So are you satisfied?

Yes, it's all right.

Perfect.

- The operation starts tonight.
- Tonight?

You'll be protected.
You have nothing to fear.

Do you know your routes?

Any questions?

Okay. See you tonight.

You're dismissed.

There you are.

Why did you leave like that?

I waited for you for an hour.

Answer me.

You were drinking.

Don't touch me. You disgust me!

Nobody's ever treated me like that.

And you're not about to
start, believe me.

Poor slob.

If you want to act the fool,
find someone else.

But it won't be easy.

I don't know many
who would put up with you.

Leave me alone! Leave immediately!

What's going on here?

Nothing.

Leave now.

You'd better hurry up.
It's almost your turn.

What's with this guy?

Anna!

One schnapps.

Filthy drunk.

Miss, excuse me.

What's wrong?

What did I do? Let me go!

Erna!

Erna, you can come back. We've got him.

I was following her,
but I did nothing wrong.

I didn't even speak.

She ran away screaming.

- Why did she scream?
- I don't know!

What were you doing there at 2:00 a.m.?

- I was going home.
- You were going the other way!

Because I saw a pretty girl I liked.

- And the knife?
- I said...

So you follow women
with a knife in your pocket?

- No!
- What do you mean "no"?

What is it?

- It's about Erna.
- Well, what?

We just found her. Dead.

IN SPITE OF YOU, I KILLED TONIGHT
AND I WILL CONTINUE. YOURS SINCERELY.

Are you hurt?

No.

What's wrong?

Why did you say I was a poor slob?

I'LL WAIT FOR YOU TONIGHT
ANNA. I LOVE YOU.

Hello, Mr. Kürten.

Your milk.

THE BEAUTIFUL ANNA

No, I really can't sing tonight.

He has to see you,
otherwise he won't come in.

I don't want to be bait.

We've taken all precautions.
The room is like a mousetrap.

If he puts one foot
inside, we've got him.

- You have nothing to fear.
- So you say.

Anna, it's time. A bit of courage.

Anna!
