  • Summary

  • *NOTE* This is more or less a lost episode. It is the best cut we could get.

    According to the BBC, "The Piper was hired by Hamelin to rid the town of its plague of rats. Trailing after the hypnotic notes of the rat-catcher’s magical flute, the rodents politely filed through the city gates to their presumed doom. They weren’t the only ones lured by his music, though. When the town refused to pay the Piper for his service, the saviour turned into a more satanic seducer and came for Hamelin’s children. Entranced by the notes of his flute, the transfixed boys and girls followed the Piper out of town and simply vanished." Today we look at that weird and possibly eerie truth behind The Piped Piper.
