Attention crime fans: Long Night of Crime Fiction in Norderstedt!
The anticipation for the 3rd Long Night of Crime Fiction in Norderstedt is increasing! On September 20, 2025, the Spectrum Cinema at Rathausallee 72, Norderstedt-Mitte, will be transformed into a hotspot for crime and true crime fans. From 7:00 p.m., doors open at 6:00 p.m., there are exciting readings and interesting conversations on the program that will delight all crime fiction fans. City magazine SH reports on an event that has always been sold out in recent years and promises to be a hit this year too.
The event offers a diverse program. It starts with Bettina Mittelacher and Prof. Dr. Klaus Püschel, who present real true crime cases in half an hour. Eva Almstädt will then present her crime novel “Ostseedämmerung”, followed by Anja Gust and Wolfgang Banse, who will present their new novel and the project “Have a Plan”. Ben Westphal will provide insights into his books “I was a cop and a cop remains a cop” and “The cop in HafenCity”. The crowning conclusion is Michael Thode with his psychological thriller “Guilt! You’re all to blame!” and the duo Kästner & Kästner, who are presenting their book “Death in the Shadow of the Elbe Flood”.
Ticket information and book sales
Fans should hurry because tickets are now available online at Eventim, Famila and TicketCorner. In addition, a book table from BücherKompass will be set up in the foyer, where visitors have the opportunity to purchase books and have them signed after the reading. At a time when the true crime genre is very popular, the event is a welcome opportunity for exchange and encounters.
The appeal of true crime
But why is the true crime genre so popular? The appeal may lie in the voyeurism that is often associated with these stories. Many people are drawn to true crimes and the stories behind them, even though they often violate social norms. According to research by Benecke, this interest is deeply rooted in society. Dealing with crime also stimulates critical discussions about social injustices, which are addressed in the form of podcasts or books.
An interesting example is the podcast “TIME CRIME” by Sabine Rückert, which analyzes the background to criminal cases and highlights the conditions that can turn people into criminals. Books like those by Klaus Püschel and Bettina Mittelacher, which describe spectacular cases of missing persons, are also part of this fascination. Skoobe notes that such works also take a closer look at the psychological background of perpetrators, which often gives the audience additional understanding of the crimes.
The Long Night of Crime Fiction in Norderstedt promises not only exciting entertainment, but also a deep insight into the multifaceted world of true crime. Be it listening to the readings or purchasing new book recommendations, the event will definitely give you goosebumps. Treat yourself to this evening full of intrigue and crime!
