Among them was Bernd Juergen Brandes, who arrived at Meiwes’s isolated country home literally to be eaten alive. Escorted to the “slaughtering room”—equipped with meat hooks, a cage, and a butcher’s table—Meiwes assisted Bernd in a gourmet candlelight dinner of his own cooked flesh. Meiwes then stabbed his victim in the throat—bringing the ghastly videotaped ordeal to an end. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e From a childhood perverted by unhealthy obsessions to his notorious trial that ended in a stunning verdict, \u003ci\u003eCannibal \u003c\/i\u003ediscloses for the first time the true story of a real-life Hannibal Lecter and his victim.

It was a Friday in March 2001, just before Easter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe birds were singing, welcoming in the spring. The picturesque hamlet was otherwise silent, apart from the sound of a tractor trundling through the nearby fields. Occasionally a car drove past the farmhouse and down the lane that led through Wüstefeld, a secluded area of Rotenburg an der Fulda in the German state of Hesse. Visitors were few to this country idyll on the edge of nowhere, and the thirty or so inhabitants liked it that way. Families from the six houses in the settlement knew one another’s business, or so they liked to think.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Brothers Grimm wrote many of their fairy tales in nearby Kassel, populating the thickly forested countryside around the farmhouse with dwarfs, goblins and witches. There is a museum in Kassel celebrating their work. Kassel’s highlights also include the Museum of Death, with its permanent collection of headstones, hearses and death-depicting sculptures.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Berkley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46303901188325,"sku":"NP9780425200667","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780425200667.jpg?v=1767723346","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/cannibal-isbn-9780425200667","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
