Brandes thought he couldn’t go through with it and asked to be taken to the train station. The two had sex, and then talked about computers while drinking some coffee. The day before Brandes had wrote “I’ll bring myself as breakfast.” That man was 43 year old Bernd Jurgen Armando Brandes who had placed his own ad looking to be eaten, and they met at Meiwes’ house on March 9th, 2001.

There he left a post saying he was looking "looking for a well-built 18- to 30-year-old to be slaughtered and then consumed."īrandesHe got many answers, but only found one to be serious after actually facing the knife.

This interest led him to the forums of an internet site called the Cannibal Café in 2001. He also became fascinated with internet pornography that showed pain and torture as its theme. He ended up recreating his mother as a mannequin in a room in that house which could only be described as a shrine. When his mother died in 1999, he was left alone and with a large country house in Germany. So he created an imaginary one named Franky with whom he would tell his secrets too, one of which was that he wished he could eat his friends before they left him so they would stay with him forever. His mother was one of those domineering types who never let him go anywhere without her, and would publicly criticized admonish him.Īs an only child with a mother like that (two half-brothers left when he was 6), he ended up without many friends. Armin Meiwes’ father abandoned his family when Armin was eight. My first story starts with a character not unlike the one from Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho. Often this is linked with sexual ecstasy, they are known to orgasm just by cutting into the flesh of their victims - it excites them immensely. Why do many cannibals do it? Well, many are loners - by eating their victims they believe they carry that person with them forever. Cannibals are charged with a related crime, usually murder - at the very least desecration of a corpse. One strange thing is there is no law against cannibalism in the United States, the United Kingdom, and many other countries. I must caution that this post includes actual screenshots from the butchering of a human corpse.
