About Lake Bodom

[-WildChild In Time-]

Hail everyone...

No, this is not a thread about the SW's song... Since we have in this forum a lot of non-Finnish people, I guess that I'm not the only one curious to know the stories about the lake that has inspired CoB's name.

I mean, here in Brazil we know (due to few interviews the band has done to magazines) about the story of the murders ocurred in the 60's in that place, but I wish to know more!!

- Where exactly is Lake Bodom??
- What is the repercution of the murders nowadays?? I mean, is it a case remembered yet by people in general??
- Someone lives near there or is it labeled as a "dangerous place"??
- What's about the survivor(s)??
- What's exactly the connection of the lake with the lyrics (we all know there's at least one song in each album which contains Bodom at its title), do they really wrote about the case on those songs (in detalis)??
- What does "Bodom" means in Finnish or what' the origin of the word?

Finnish people, tell us foreigners about it!! Maybe these are silly questions but we're (at least I'm) curious.

dude check the www.scythes-of-bodom.tk its the only place when youll find everything.
btw There is no such lake as bodom, cuz "bodom" is just a part of the real lake's name

[Zarok666]

You were born in 1981 and you could kill people in 1960? Now that's a cool trick...
