1. Scientist who was fixated with the other woman in his life
In 1930, radiologist Carl Tanzler, aka Georg Karl Tänzler and Count Carl Von Cosel, was married with two children when he fell for a tuberculosis patient Elena de Hoyos whom he was convinced to have been dreaming about. Despite his efforts, she died in 1931. He built her a crypt and sat by her coffin, until he decided to exhume her body. He tied her body parts with piano wire, gave her glass eyes and a wig made of her own hair, and covered her in wax. He played music to her and slept by her. Though arrested after 7 years, he was declared sane. A tube was found in Elena’s vagina, with semen inside it.
There are plenty of other sordid and gruesome examples of people who lived with the dead. Several reasons have been found to lead people to do such bizarre things. For some, it’s about money and benefits, while for others, it’s about practices like necrophilia. Many people living with the dead have been found to be so deeply attached to the dead that they couldn’t let go. While many live in denial, some want to take some time to accept the truth. Upon clinical investigations, many of these people living with skeletons and corpses have been found to have psychological disorders. Some are sad and lonely. Some are just panic-stricken murderers. These are no Stephen King characters. They are real people who pop up in the news every now and then, and shock us. They behave like everything is normal. Yet, they have a skeleton in the closet – quite literally!
