In 1933 Kraus wrote "Die Dritte Walpurgisnacht" ("The Third Walpurgis Night"), of which the first fragments appeared in "Die Fackel". Kraus withheld full publication in part to protect his friends and followers hostile to Hitler who still lived in the Third Reich from Nazi reprisals, and in part because "violence is no subject for polemic." This satire on Nazi ideology begins with the now-famous sentence, "" ("Hitler brings nothing to my mind"). Lengthy extracts appear in Kraus's apologia for his silence at Hitler's coming to power, "" ("Why "Die Fackel" is not published"), a 315-page edition of the periodical. The last issue of "Die Fackel" appeared in February 1936. Shortly after, he fell in a collision with a bicyclist and suffered intense headaches and loss of memory. He gave his last lecture in April, and had a severe heart attack in the Café Imperial on June 10. He died in his apartment in Vienna on June 12, 1936, and was buried in the Zentralfriedhof cemetery in Vienna.
