August 23, 2006.
The scream of a girl awakened the quiet Strathoff.
The girl rushed out of a private garden.
Her skinny body could hardly support her screaming.
She escaped into a woman's house.
He screamed with all his strength: "Save me... I'm Natasha Kampush..."
Woman frightened.
I thought, where is this lunatic?
So the police were called.
After the police came, the girl wanted to grab a life-saving straw.
She yelled repeatedly: "My name is Natasha Kampush. I was kidnapped 8 years ago... I'm still alive..."
One of the police officers felt nervous when he heard the name.
"What's your name?"
"Natasha Kampush."
The police officers immediately contacted the headquarters and dispatched more police forces.
Coming with the police, there are also a lot of media.
Seeing the flash, the girl looked like a ghost, and then asked to cover her head with a blanket.
She hasn't seen so many people in many years.
Even more unwilling to return to the eyes of everyone with such an unbearable face.
At this point, the bizarre disappearance case that had enveloped the small village of Strasshof for 8 years was finally solved.
A few days later.
The police released the details of the kidnapping of Natasha Kampush.
8 years and 6 months of persistence.
3096 days of painful torture.
And Natasha's heroic escape.
Why was she kidnapped?
How to come back alive?
Facing the camera, Natasha recalled over and over again, the most unwilling experience in this life.
"My mother always said, never leave after a quarrel. Because one of us may have an accident, and we will never see each other."
In the documentary "The Story of a Life", Natasha said.
Mother Natasha became a proverb.
It was the morning of March 2, 1998, and Natasha went to school alone for the first time.
Mother originally wanted to accompany her.
But because the night before, she and her father went to the bar. After my mother learned about it, she had a big fight with her.
At that time, Natasha's parents had just divorced.
As a sandwich between two adults, Natasha's life is very depressing.
She hopes to become independent as soon as possible.
It was her first attempt at school that day.
Natasha's school is not far from home.
Mother Natasha was on the balcony, watching her daughter drift away.
She did not follow.
Later, this became the last decision she regretted in her life.
Natasha walked to the corner and chose a route that she didn't usually take.
She wants to be rebellious.
Not a few steps away, a middle-aged man came down in a white box car parked on the side of the road.
The man is of medium build and average appearance.
He kept staring at Natasha and smiled.
Natasha was flustered.
She noticed something was wrong, but her body still moved forward mechanically.
step
Two steps
...
When he almost walked to the man's side, the man grabbed her by the hand, then picked it up and threw it into the car.
"Snapped--"
Natasha had no time to react, and the car door closed.
She wanted to scream.
But I found that because I was too scared, the voice was pressed down in my throat, and I couldn't make any sound.
"I was kidnapped."
After recovering, Natasha confirmed the situation.
"Please let me go..."
Natasha said to the kidnapper in a very small voice in the car.
"If you want to survive, I advise you to shut up."
The kidnapper's voice was trembling, and he didn't reply.
During that time, there were frequent cases of kidnapping, assault, and even brutal murder of children in Vienna.
Natasha loves watching these kinds of shows.
As a result, I learned some ways to deal with the kidnappers and ask for help.
"What's your name?"
Natasha plucked up the courage and asked.
She wants to use this to get more information about the kidnappers.
The kidnapper told her to shut up again.
The plan failed, and she stared at the scenery outside the window all the way.
She hopes to keep in mind any effective road signs so that if there is a chance to ask for help, she can know where she is trapped.
Soon, the car stopped.
Before getting off the car, the kidnapper wrapped Natasha in a blanket.
Then, like carrying goods, he picked her up and walked away.
Natasha listened hard.
But only when the kidnappers walked, the shoes made a "creak-creak -" sound.
When I see the sun again,
She is already in a compartment.
The compartment is very small, but it is full of equipment necessary for life.
At the time, Natasha didn't know.
She is actually in a cellar of only 5.5 square meters.
This cellar is hidden in the kidnapper's garage.
It was locked by two safe-style doors, and a heavy cabinet and tires were still pressed at the entrance.
It takes at least one hour for the kidnappers to enter each time.
She cannot escape.
Moreover, once the kidnappers stopped coming, she could only die inside.
Natasha was only 10 years old when she was kidnapped.
She didn't scream.
Nor did he wantonly anger the kidnappers.
The legal system rescued Natasha, but did not have time to teach her how to escape.
She became a caged bird.
Trapped in a dark, damp, dark cellar.
A full 8 years and 6 months.
Natasha is very different from ordinary hostages.
After successfully escaping, not only did she not complain about the kidnappers.
He also thinks that the kidnapper is not an absolute villain.
Many psychologists believe that Natasha has Stockholm syndrome .
Commonly known as: hostage complex .
At first, I found this case with a research mentality.
But when I found Natasha's autobiography.
Through her eyes and approaching the little-known life of imprisonment, I gradually understood her feelings.
During the days of imprisonment, Natasha's life was divided.
The kidnappers sometimes treated her extremely rudely.
Snatched her schoolbag.
Burned her shoes.
Took off her coat.
In the cellar, Natasha was only allowed to wear white underwear and underwear.
Everything related to before the imprisonment was taken away.
But occasionally, the kidnappers seemed to be obedient to her.
Buy her snacks.
Read her stories.
Almost to a state of responsiveness.
In Natasha's perception, the kidnapper must be the villain.
It will only hurt her.
But apart from being imprisoned, she didn't suffer any substantial harm.
What does the kidnapper want?
She was puzzled.
It wasn't until several years after successfully escaping that Natasha finally figured it out.
The kidnappers are not for money.
But want a woman who belongs to him completely.
During the time in captivity, everything the kidnappers did was purposeful.
However, Natasha was too young at the time.
It is impossible to perceive and understand the meaning at all.
After being imprisoned for about a week, the kidnappers took the first step.
A timer was installed in the cellar.
What is the timing?
Electric light.
This almost killed Natasha!
In the dark and damp cellar, the electric light is her only sense of security.
Her emotions were quietly manipulated in this way.
She will be very happy when the light is on.
After the light goes out, she will be very depressed.
About a month after the "light control incident," the kidnappers installed a second device in the cellar.
Walkie talkie.
The kidnapper is high-sounding: "So you can contact me in time if you have something."
Natasha was overjoyed.
Even expressed gratitude to the kidnappers.
Who knows, waiting for her is another terrible nightmare.
The intercom is always ringing.
But not because of her needs.
It was the kidnapper who kept muttering: "Obey me...Obey me..."
At first it was just a fixed time.
Later, I read it almost all the time.
Many people may find it ridiculous, but can they manipulate people's hearts with just one sentence?
Of course the kidnappers also knew.
Therefore, he also made the most critical step.
Control your diet.
This is extremely cruel.
As long as a person has the will to survive, the body will issue subconscious instructions to eat.
Hunger is enough to make you lose your heart.
Hunger can make a person obedient.
At first, Natasha had been fighting.
The kidnappers did not scold or fight, but stopped talking on the intercom and stopped sending food to the cellar.
Soon after, Natasha went to collapse.
She began to act like a baby on the walkie-talkie.
"Natasha really wants something to eat, please..."
The walkie-talkie still did not move.
She gradually lost her patience and became manic.
"No matter what it is, I will eat it, anything is fine!"
In experimental psychology, there is a test about solitary confinement.
It is proved that a person who has been held in solitary confinement for a long time will have strong adverse reactions.
Cognitive dissonance.
Distorted thinking.
Mental breakdown.
Kidnappers = hope of life.
This is the real situation faced by Natasha.
In just a few months, Natasha has become "submissive."
She learns to watch her words and colors.
She can give an accurate response to the subtle changes in the kidnapper's face and tone.
But this is not what the kidnappers want.
He shouldn't fake good intentions.
It was that Natasha really fell in love with him.
In order to achieve this ultimate goal, the kidnappers worked a lot.
1. Create an imaginary enemy.
As early as the kidnapping, Natasha had an illusion.
There is a huge group behind the kidnappers.
Because, on the way back to the kidnappers' house, they had such a conversation.
"Why are you kidnapping me?"
"I don't want it either. As long as you give them to them, this matter has nothing to do with me."
Later, the kidnappers even pretended to be innocent.
"I don't want to kidnap you, I am also controlled. Otherwise, I will be killed."
In more than 8 years.
Natasha has been caught in the contradiction between hatred and sympathy.
On the one hand, she believes that the enemy is a kidnapper.
On the other hand, she thinks that she and the kidnapper have a bigger enemy, they are actually companions.
2. Wrong attribution.
Earlier, when I analyzed the PUA routine, I once said a classic trick.
It's "I blame you."
This trick was also used very much by the kidnappers.
He and Natasha had three chapters, as long as she was obedient, she would be able to satisfy her one wish.
But the standard of "behaved" is in the hands of the kidnappers.
When I was young, the kidnapper liked to play games with Natasha.
One of my favorites is role playing.
The kidnapper is a teacher.
Natasha is a student.
The kidnappers will teach knowledge in a decent way.
Then write out the test paper.
At first, Natasha did it very carefully.
Hope to be rewarded.
As a result, no matter what she did, she got 0 points.
Many years later, Natasha recalled the incident, only to realize that the kidnapper did not want to play with her at all.
The purpose of the kidnappers is just to conquer.
"He enjoys the feeling of drawing X with a red pen, because it can hit my self-esteem and deny my life."
After entering puberty, Natasha's rebellious personality became more apparent.
The methods adopted by the kidnappers have also become simple and rude.
Slightly unsatisfactory, shave his head directly.
The punishment has been intensified.
But the most terrifying thing is the personality insult.
As she grew older, Natasha also began to develop, with the characteristics of a girl.
At this time, the kidnapper thought of a new trick.
Walking naked.
Every time Natasha disobeyed, or showed sadness, the kidnappers asked her to take off her clothes.
After a few years, Natasha has no dignity.
As long as the kidnapper gives an order, she will numbly strip off.
No matter when, no matter where.
3. Disintegrate beliefs.
Although Natasha was very smart, she was only 10 years old when she was imprisoned.
Her emotions must be exogenous.
In the early days of imprisonment, the biggest point of disagreement between her and the kidnappers was the theme of "homesickness."
Natasha has always believed that her parents will find her.
It took the kidnappers a long time to dissolve her sense of conviction.
Once, Natasha asked the kidnapper to send a letter to her parents.
The kidnapper actually agreed.
Of course he couldn't really send it, including all the letters Natasha sent later, the kidnappers accepted them one by one.
Then burned.
Taking advantage of this gap, tell Natasha again and again: "Your parents never wrote back."
On another occasion, the kidnappers claimed to have been in contact with Natasha's parents.
"I gave them the bank card number and asked them to pay the ransom, but they didn't pay at all."
Natasha didn't want to believe it.
The two quarreled.
Before Natasha was 16 years old, the kidnappers were still repeating it.
It was meant to convince Natasha that the world had forgotten her a long time ago, and even her parents didn't care about her.
But is this really the case?
no.
On the day Natasha disappeared, her mother discovered something was wrong.
Because she didn't go home on time, she called the nursery teacher.
It turns out that my daughter didn't go to class.
Anxious, she immediately called the police.
At that time, there were several cases of missing children in Vienna.
Natasha's disappearance immediately attracted attention.
The police formed a task force.
Many TV stations in Vienna also synchronized the news of Natasha's disappearance.
The police first focused on Natasha's surrounding relationships.
They conducted data collection.
neighbour.
School.
Community.
Finally expanded to the entire block.
Fortunately, witnesses were found.
On the day Natasha was kidnapped, a little girl witnessed the whole process on the other side of the street.
But the little girl only remembered it was a white truck.
The car model, the license plate number, and the appearance of the kidnappers were not impressed.
Pinpointing the clue of the "white truck", the police conducted a carpet search.
Strasshof is a small village.
The permanent population is about 8,000.
Everyone is very confident that they can immediately catch this kidnapper in the dark.
Within a few days, the police investigated 1,520 white trucks.
650 suspicious persons were also investigated.
Of course it also includes the kidnappers.
April 6, 1998.
The kidnappers met the police for the first time.
The police investigated from house to house and came to the kidnapper's home.
They searched the kidnapper's car and house, and took pictures of the car.
But by then, Natasha had been imprisoned in the cellar.
The police did not get any effective leads.
Everyone said: "Natasha Kampush may be dead."
But Natasha's mother never gave up.
She kissed the picture of Natasha every day, and then whispered: "Don't give up."
Like talking to Natasha.
It's more like talking to myself.
Before being kidnapped, Natasha looked forward to her birthday every year.
Because there will be cakes made by mother herself.
After Natasha disappeared, her mother would make cakes every year on her daughter's birthday.
"I hope she knows that I have been missing her."
However, mother's persistence waited only for disappointment.
For more than 8 years, she has answered countless clue calls.
Many people pretend to be kidnappers.
But their purpose is just to defraud money.
Mother was heartbroken.
She wanted money for the kidnappers, so that at least there would be a glimmer of hope.
What I did not expect is that human nature is really ugly.
July 18, 2002.
Natasha has been missing for more than 4 years.
The police no longer focus on this case, even though Natasha’s mother goes to the police station every year to inquire about the situation.
At this time, some private investigators were playing with conspiracy theories.
They guessed that Natasha's body was buried in the garden near her home.
Who is the murderer?
It was Natasha's mother and her boyfriend at the time.
Private detectives believe that Natasha's mother wrote and directed and performed the kidnapping and disappearance case.
The reason she hurt the killer was that Natasha prevented her new relationship.
The private investigator's remarks caused an uproar in an instant.
Natasha's mother has been living in controversy in public opinion for a long time.
She never explained.
I don't want to face the media self-evident innocence.
In 2005.
Natasha has been missing for 7 years.
Everyone, including Natasha's father, thought that Natasha was dead.
The Vienna City Council recommended that Natasha's mother close the case.
They are willing to support her.
Help her buy a cemetery for Natasha and erect a monument for her.
But Natasha's mother refused.
She didn't know if it was telepathy or her mother's stubbornness, she had always believed that her daughter was alive.
In fact, Natasha and her mother are very close.
The kidnapper’s home to Natasha’s home is only a 10-minute drive away.
They have been beside each other for more than 8 years.
But because of the kidnappers' selfish desires, he suffered the pain and suffering of separation.
Summer of 2002.
The 1695th day of Natasha's imprisonment.
Her relationship with the kidnappers has undergone a qualitative change because of one incident.
She is on her period.
Before that, the relationship between Natasha and the kidnapper was more like a father and daughter.
The period symbolizes Natasha's transformation from a girl to a woman.
The kidnappers also began to treat Natasha with an adult mentality.
Christmas that year.
The kidnappers held a party in the cellar.
The purpose is to change Natasha's name.
"From now on, you will call Viviana, there will be no more Natasha in the world."
Natasha did not refute.
She knows that acceptance can make her life better.
Soon after, Natasha lost her virginity.
The kidnappers were happy.
He thought he finally had Natasha completely.
Natasha looked indifferent.
No one can see the true thoughts in her heart.
At the same time, the kidnappers started shooting Natasha with a DV camera.
He asked Natasha in the camera to show joy and happiness.
Natasha always does it.
She learned to hide her true thoughts just to live.
Soon after, Natasha was allowed out of the cellar.
She can walk around the house occasionally.
Although, I always do all kinds of housework, even hard labor.
But seeing the long-lost sunshine and breathing the fresh air made her heart very happy.
I admire Natasha.
She is worthy of the title of "woman warrior".
In the face of being imprisoned, the power disparity with the kidnappers, and more than 8 years of brainwashing, she has not been lost.
She never gave up resisting.
Even if she was insulted and manipulated, she insisted on bargaining with the kidnappers.
Once, the kidnapper deliberately teased her.
Let her go naked to get water in the sewer.
She cried.
After coming up, he broke the kidnapper's nose with a punch.
At that time, she was only 38 kilograms.
The body is extremely weak and can only barely stand up.
You must be puzzled.
Since everyone dared to beat the kidnappers, why didn't they dare to escape?
She actually escaped.
One time was when shopping with the kidnappers.
She took advantage of the moment the kidnappers left and talked to others.
Who knows, the kidnapper came back before it was clear.
The other time was during a ski tour with the kidnappers.
She deliberately told the kidnappers to go to the toilet, and then hid in the toilet waiting for others to pass by.
Soon after, someone really came in.
She hurried out and asked for help.
As a result, that person was a tourist from Holland and could not understand foreign languages at all.
The two failed escapes had serious consequences for Natasha.
The kidnappers shut her back to the cellar again.
Punched and kicked her day and night.
She was wounded all over, her face was so swollen that she didn't look like a human, and she had to endure hunger and darkness.
After that, Natasha dared not call for help.
She lost faith in the outside world.
He even began to believe that what the kidnappers said, "the world no longer cares about her."
Even if she saw the police, she couldn't take that step again.
After years of brainwashing and control, Natasha is convinced that the kidnapper is her master.
She suffered from traumatic sequelae.
The cognition of life has been seriously reversed.
I was sure that the kidnappers would kill her.
Would kill her family.
Will kill anyone who talks to her.
Whenever she wanted to talk to someone, the thought of "will be killed" came to her mind.
It is not easy to overcome this psychological barrier.
February 17, 2006.
Natasha celebrated her 18th birthday.
The kidnappers like dancing very much.
I specially gave Natasha a little red dress to teach her dance.
Natasha followed awkwardly, smiling comfortably.
The kidnappers are very satisfied.
He was completely convinced that Natasha could not do without him.
But this is just a disguise for Natasha.
As early as when the kidnappers took her virgin body, she made a secret decision.
"Either he died or I died."
During the days of imprisonment, she tried to succumb countless times.
She thought about deceiving herself.
I believe the kidnappers really love her.
But the miss of her mother and the desire for freedom kept her persistent.
Whenever the kidnappers beat her.
She will deliberately write down.
Used to remind yourself how hateful the kidnappers are.
She never gave up running away.
For this day, she was obedient, working hard to please her, and let the kidnappers relax with her.
In the past, kidnappers acted to deceive her.
Now, she has also become an adult from a child, and has learned to act.
With a frown and a smile, the kidnappers gradually melted away.
She wants to convince the kidnapper that she has fallen in love with him.
This day has finally arrived.
Natasha will always remember that it was August 23, 2006.
That afternoon.
The kidnapper asked her to wash the car in the yard.
Originally, the kidnappers were watching, but Natasha didn't think much about it.
After a while, a phone call came in.
The kidnapper walked into the room and talked on the phone because the vacuum cleaner was too loud.
The alert Natasha caught a glimpse of the gate of the yard being hidden.
She turned the vacuum cleaner to its maximum.
Then, gently climbed out of the car.
As she ran, she looked back, for fear that the kidnappers would find the same.
In less than a minute, she went out.
She ran forward with all her strength.
His hands and feet were trembling, and his heart was beating wildly, but he didn't dare to look back for a moment.
Fear repeatedly tried to suppress her.
But she won in the confrontation.
She really escaped!
later.
People finally know the true face of the kidnapper.
His name is Wolfgang Priklopir and he was 35 years old when he kidnapped Natasha.
He is a typical mommy.
Has been living in his mother's apartment.
It is for this reason that the police did not find out his residence information.
After the kidnapping of Natasha, Wall didn't look for another job.
Relying on the casual decoration workers introduced by friends, to maintain a living.
His life circle is very narrow.
Apart from work, it is staying at home.
No one would have thought that such an ordinary person would kidnap a girl.
Hiding at home is actually for a perverted development plan.
Everyone wants to ask: "Why is he kidnapping?"
But Wall didn't give everyone a chance.
On the day Natasha escaped, he walked towards the train tracks.
Eyes closed.
Lie down.
End this contest with death.
The last page of the autobiography.
Natasha ended with this sentence:
"Only one of us can survive, and that person will eventually be me, not him."
The kidnapping destroyed Natasha.
Push her into the abyss and let her see the ugliness of human nature.
But Natasha conquered fear.
She remained awake all the time, even though her body was repeatedly destroyed, and her psychological defense was repeatedly broken.
In another day, it will light up.
This was Natasha's only conviction during the 3096 days of imprisonment.
