The Secrets of Barslet

2012 · 1 season

A slow, uneasy look beneath the surface of a quiet village, where ordinary life feels quietly threatening and nothing is quite what it seems.

Overview
In the middle of nowhere lies the little Dutch village: Barslet. The only strange thing about the village seems to be the name, which means "bar slut" in Dutch. But there is also a different interpretation of the name. "Bars" means "unfriendly" in Dutch and "let" is medieval Dutch for "people". So Barslet means "unfriendly people". Barslet seems to be an ordinary and peaceful village. But if you believe that, you're mistaken.
