Human Dolls Case

Anatoly Moskvin was born on the 1st of September in 1966, in Gorky, Russia. He had little friends growing up, and always kept to himself. His parents never minded, as he was an intelligent child, who never ceased to amaze them. Anatoly was able to graduate high school early, but never considered going to collage.

After high chool, he got a job at a local graveyard, where he would patrol the yard at night, making sure that no one robbed the graves. Anatoly really enjoyed his time working at the graveyard, and even made a documentary titled "great walks around the cemetery," in which he would dig up graves, to steal valuables and even entire bodies!

He even said he spent one night sleeping in a coffin ahead of a deceased person's funeral. Anatoly Moskvin's observations were more than just observations, however.

Anatoly was arrested in his house by 8 police officers, who found 17 "dolls" in his living room. (Said dolls were made of a dead body, paper matchet and clothes taken from dolls.)

Historians said that he took little girls because he was lonely ane always dreamed of starting a family. He even celebrated the dolls' birthdays as if they were his real children.

The police found 29 bodies, aging from 3 to 25 years old. The neighbors said they noticed a foul stench but never mentioned anything because he and his family have always been pleasant.

He was diagnosed with schizophrenia and sentenced to life in prison, along with being admitted to a psychiatric hospital.
