Stefanie Pieper, a well-known Austrian beauty influencer, vanished after attending a Christmas party on 22 November. She took a taxi home with a friend and arrived at her apartment in Graz in the early hours of the following morning, sending a message to confirm she had reached home safely.
Moments later, she sent another message to a friend, expressing unease. She wrote that she sensed someone lurking in her stairwell, describing the figure as dark and shadowy. It was the last time Stefanie was ever heard from before her sudden disappearance.
