Two sisters, identical in every way, walk into traffic on one of the UK’s busiest motorways. Cameras capture the horror: one is struck by a lorry, the other hit head-on by a car. Moments later, one of them rises — wild-eyed, screaming of stolen organs and secret threats. And that was only the beginning. This is the story of Ursula and Sabina Eriksson, whose bizarre and violent descent unfolded on the M6 and culminated in a senseless killing. Was it madness, shared psychosis, or something far stranger? From Sweden to Stoke-on-Trent, the Eriksson twins left behind a trail of mystery, tragedy, and one of the most unsettling true events ever captured on film.
