16. The Frank Family Purposely Left Their Apartment A Mess To Throw Off Authorities
The Frank family knew Nazis would knock on their door because of the letter Margot received saying she needed to go to a labor camp in Germany. Therefore, the family not only had to go into hiding several days before their planned date, but they had to throw off the authorities.
To make it look like the family left in a hurry, they left their apartment a mess. Otto even decided to write a quick note to make it look like the family escaped to Switzerland, so authorities would not look for the family in Amsterdam.
