Recently, a large hotel was built, where you can spend a night or two very comfortably. Many roads and alleys near the lake are also called Bodom, so be sure to walk along them.

On June 4, 1960, a bad story happened on this lake, four teenagers - two girls of fifteen years and two eighteen-year-old Boys came to the lake to have a good time, what the trip turned out for them is well known to every Finn.

On this beautiful sunny day, they arrived at a small hotel on the shore - Hastbergen, at the time the lake was a quiet place where there were usually no people. A number of murders had recently occurred in Finland, and although the perpetrator was found, Miley and Anya's parents did not want to let the girls go overnight.

After the guys settled in the hotel, they went swimming and went for a walk to the nearest store for gum and lemonade. They came back at 19:30. By the time there was one fisherman and a couple of young men on the lake, they were about to go home. They were the last people to see teenagers alive.

The whole of Finland, and then the whole world, were shocked by the triple murder, which was recognized as one of the most brutal in the history of mankind.

Finally, on 2 April 2004 the police investigation yielded the expected results. 44 years after the murder, the man was found guilty.
