But in mourning, we feel secure - for eternity. A shock for the Hamburg DOM showmen: More than three decades after the terrible DOM accident in 1981, the owner of the haunted house "Zombie Land" is found beaten to death. In a ransom letter, unknown individuals demand five million euros - otherwise, they threaten with terror and bloodshed. The nighttime power outage and further attacks on the DOM quickly make it clear that the extortionists are serious! The showmen are surrounded by a wall of silence. Will Commissioners Sandra Holz and Alexander Schweiss manage to break through it, or will the summer DOM have to be canceled early? A race against time begins to finally bring light to the darkness of the Heiligengeistfeld.
