XCVI: Feast of Flesh – The Horrifying Crimes of the Samara Cannibals
In this chilling episode of Rogue Darkness, we descend into one of Russia’s most disturbing true crime cases — the Cannibal Family of Samara.
What began as an unassuming couple soon turned into a nightmare that shocked investigators and horrified the world. Together, they lured victims, feasted on their flesh, and documented their gruesome acts in detail.
Join me as we explore the dark psychology behind their crimes, the evidence that led to their capture, and the twisted reality of human monstrosity that blurs the line between myth and madness.
👁️🗨️ Dare to descend into the darkness.
