The incredibly shocking and gloomy biography of Jeffrey Damer is one of the most famous serial killers in history, which received the nickname Cannibal from Miluoka.
In the summer of 1991, a man covered by panic, with his hands, shackled handcuffs, ran out of an apartment building and turned to the patrol policemen for help. Trembling with fear, he brought them back to the lair of his kidnapper, where the real hell turned out to be. At least fifteen people were kept in the apartment: the torso in a huge barrel, a collection of skulls and a skeleton in a chest of drawers, in the refrigerator - severed heads. Polarid photographs of mutilated bodies were attached to the freezer.
After the arrest of the 31-year-old Jeffrey Dammer, the investigators realized that they stumbled upon the “real Hannibal Lecter”: the maniac said that he had kept a human heart to eat him. The bones of the victims, according to the murderer’s idea, were to become part of his own altar - to honor the terrible beauty of death ...
How did the quiet employee of the chocolate factory turn into a sadist, necrophil and cannibal, whose crimes shocked the whole country? Psychological, terrifying and frank, the story of Jeffrey Dammer shows the most extreme and dark sides of human nature.
“The first book of Brian Masters, "Murder for the sake of the company", deservedly became a classic of criminology. The second book, the "Altar of Death", the layer behind the layer reveals the mentality of the killer with the skill of the Rembrandt anatomist, which dissects the body. ” - Literary Review
The convincing portrait of a young man who fell into an inexpressible madness ... exciting reading. - Daily Telegraph
Unsurinded ... The subject of the book is terrible and repels, but the study itself is instructive. - Independent
