Synopsis
What could drive someone to kill and eat a fellow human being? This book examines the most notorious cases of serial killer cannibalism from Sawney Bean and Albert Fish to Jeffrey Dahmer and Andrei Chikatilo. It also details an array of more peculiar cases: Fritz Haarmann, who drank the blood of his victims before selling the meat on the black market; Issei Sagawa, the "refined cannibal," who became a celebrity in Japan; former "Mr. Gay U.K." winner Anthony Morley; and Armin Meiwes, who advertised for his victim on the Internet. The graphic details of such cases are a throwback to humanity’s savage prehistory and reveal much about the myths of vampires and other monsters who prey on flesh and blood.
