Franc Frakelj (his real name Peter Skalar) was a member of collaborational Slovene home guard (after the Italian fascist capitulation in 1943) and a member of a secret murderous war organization Črna roka (Black Hand) who cruelly killed (as he said in the name of God) over 60 people during the Second World War.
Frakelj was born in Dražgoše , a village in the northwestern Slovenia, which was buried in 1942 by German Army. Before the Battle of Castle Turjak in September 19 1943 Frakelj was the commander of a stronghold of village sentries in Tomišelj south of Ljubljana.
His victims were people of all ages and sex. He and his men (his selected accomplices were called 12 crusaders) brutally killed them with stakes. I know the story I am about to tell is weird but on the January 1 2004 some girls-students came to church nearby and something creepy happened-they could not go out of the church door because on the stairway of the church were suddenly souls of people that Frakelj killed. One girl is stil in trauma. Our vicar took those visions of restless souls pretty serious and he made a mass for them to calm them down. Indeed it is a true story. Shame he was never convicted for all those crime he did to poor people. If there is hell, I hope he will fry in there for all the war crimes he caused.
He was never convicted and he died in Canada.
