Acerca deste livro eletrónico
The terrifying true story of the serial killer who built a torture chamber in his Philadelphia home.
Serial killer Gary Heidnik’s name will live on in infamy, and his house in North Philadelphia is tainted with the memory of unbelievable horrors. Heidnik had dug a pit in his basement where he held young women captive for months—half-naked and chained. They had been tortured, starved, and repeatedly raped. But more grotesque discoveries lay in the kitchen: human limbs frozen, a torso burned to cinders, an empty pot suspiciously scorched . . .
This is not a story for the faint-hearted. Cellar of Horror is a shocking true account of the self-proclaimed minister with a long history of mental illness, who preyed upon the susceptible in a bizarre plan to create his own “baby factory.” It is a macabre web spun around money, power, and religion, all leading toward a courtroom drama of legal tactics and shocking revelations.
