Epilogue shown with photographs of the actual characters:  "Bjorn Schouw Nielsen was paroled in 1967. He never admitted to the hypnosis crimes. According to the police, he continued to manipulate people for illegal purposes. In 1949 he had run his own hypnosis clinic and later wrote a book on hypnosis. He committed suicide in 1974.   Palle Hardup was released from a mental hospital for the criminally insane in 1967. He then held different jobs, and devoted himself to religious ideas and charity work. He passed away in 2012.   Anders Olsen is based in part on Inspector Roland Olsen, who solved the hypnosis murders and had clashed with his colleagues when he investigated Nazi connections in the Copenhagen police force. Olsen was repeatedly honored for his service before he died in 1972."
