Could you ever imagine the horror of discovering that the dolls in a quiet home were, in fact, the mummified remains of young girls? Join me, Sabrina, as we embark on an unsettling journey to Nizhny Novgorod, Russia, exploring the morbid world of Anatoly Moskvin. We traverse his childhood abduction and assault, his peculiar interest sparked by a funeral at twelve, and his descent into a realm where the dead became his companions. This episode is steeped in the macabre, from his academic excellence in linguistics to his dark alliances and vow of celibacy. Together, we'll try to unravel the complex tapestry of Anatoly's psyche, and how his scholarly pursuits led him to a life filled with nocturnal graveyard visits and a home that housed the unthinkable.
The narrative twists further as we focus on Anatoly's non-sexual partnership with Julia, their challenges with adoption, and his transition from a respected lecturer to a man haunted by an insatiable need for preservation. We'll uncover the disturbing practices that kept his parents and neighbors none the wiser as he crafted life-sized dolls from the bodies of the deceased, lovingly adorning them with clothes and wax masks. The sheer normalcy of Anatoly's day-to-day life belies the grim ritualistic activities that occurred behind closed doors, and I'll take you step by step through his ghastly process, sparing no detail.
