Wikipedia: Klaas
Annink (June 18, 1710 – September 13, 1775), better known as Huttenkloas, was a notorious Dutch
serial killer in Twente, Netherlands. Records of his life frequently mention
that he was born in Bentelo.
He was reputedly responsible, together with his wife Aarne
Spanjers and his son, Jannes, for numerous robberies and murders in the region
in and around Hengevelde.
In 1774, a merchant from Hanover investigated and found
convincing evidence that Annink was responsible for the disappearance and
murder of one of his family members. Huttenkloas was then arrested and held for
114 days in a specially-made chair. Following a controversial trial, he and his
wife were sentenced to death and executed. The seat in which Klaas Annink sat,
known as the "Chair of Huttenkloas", is still on display in the
Ancient Chamber room in the Palthehuis Museum in Oldenzaal.
