Horrifying True Crime Stories
Horrifying True Crime Stories: Disturbing True Tales of Murder, Mayhem and The Macabre | Danielle Tyning
1 post | 1 read | 4 to read
Real-life is stranger and more frightening than fiction, and this book serves to cement that principal even further. In this compilation, there are eleven cases of some of the most deplorable, unjust and violent crimes I've come across. From cannibals to rapists to the sickest, most twisted criminals you've not yet heard of, you'll read about them all in this book. I'll tell you the story of Rurik Jutting, a British banker living in Hong Kong who held two women hostage, tortured them and raped them over a number of days. You'll learn about Issei Sagawa, a Japanese cannibal who killed and ate a woman - but walks free on the streets today. Then there's the vile three-week torture of an Australian woman who, when she was eventually rescued, paramedics initially thought she was dead. You can also read about the 'Hello Kitty' murder, which is as bizarre as it sounds - and as equally haunting. But please be warned, the cases in this book are highly disturbing and include graphic and distressing descriptions. Please take this trigger warning seriously as this book depicts horrific crimes that involve sexual abuse, domestic abuse, child abuse and graphic violence throughout. This book is intended to explore the evil in this world and expose the heinous behaviour some people are capable of. Please heed this warning before continuing to read. The book fits under the following categories: Serial Killers True Crime Murder and Mayhem True Murder Cases True Crime Biography

Can't get enough true crime? This short collection of truly disturbing stories hits the spot. Not for the casual true crime reader. I had heard of a couple of these cases, but the others were new to me. All the trigger warnings. I assume this was independently published, as the writing could have been better, but the stories were intriguing (if you're into that sort of thing).
