why is nobody talking about how there was a doll in his parents room?? they had to have smelt it and why wouldn’t they move it, it was their bedroom. the parents are not saying their full involvement
When you smell something for a long period of time it becomes normal to your brain so they might not have noticed it after a while so they might have thought it went away
I blame his messed up childhood..genius kids are very focused once their attention is on something it’s difficult to divert it plus if the parents knew, they might have gotten help for him but he never got treatment for it and that screwed him up
...he spent weeks mummifying them. They aren't going to smell of a body that is decomposing. It stinks but doesn't compare to the smell of decomp. So there is a chance his parents didn't actually know.
To be honest I can imagine that they didn't know for one simple reason: if they learned of it would they have been willing to stay there? I mean any sane person would have moved house - or at least make sure to stay as far of these "dolls" as possible, certainly not have one in their bedroom as well. :/
im pretty sure that if he hadn't ever been caught, he'd probably started killing young girls for some "death is better than life, that's what the corpse dolls told me" reason
@@joseanurkkalainen2832 It's possibility... but we can't judge someone on something that he didn't do yet...what he could've done can't be called to be judged as he didn't do it yet.
Reminds me of Ed Gein he dug up women his mothers age he wound up killing 3 people so he was a serial killer but he was the only one found insane lived the rest of his life in a psychiatric ward hospital
You talking about Olga and Olga's family didn't feel like a tangent; it humanized her and drove home the point that she was someone's little girl and these are real people affected by this man's crime.
exactly! i really appreciate that part. i like how she does it in pretty much all videos. kinda reminds you that these aren't just people who died, they're people who lived. they had personalities and interests and such
Abolsutely. It made the case feel more real and helped me to think deeper into the family's perspectives. When videos focus so heavily on the criminal and their life and psychology, sometimes we forget to celebrate and learn about the victims and try to understand the full effects of the crime
Ya like before she goes into that it’s like ok he didn’t kill anyone or hurt anyone so he’s not nearly as horrible as the other criminals she’s covered but after that it shows you how bad what he did actually was
Just think about the father, staying in his daughter's bedroom. Thinking she is just lost, no. She is gone forever, I nearly kind of cried when Eleanor said the last place she said as I love you dad, it feels awful how that was happening to the father, and the mother and all of Olga's family, thinking she was missing. When she was dead, behind pipes then in the guy's bedroom.
They were mummified deseased children bodies and the guy had mental issues he didnt want to engage in sexual acts wanted a daughter. Couldnt adpot have one of his owns or kidnap a live child n go to prison so dug up children that were deceased and turnt them into dolls basically put a hole in there chest to put music box or voice box in there chest so they have voices. its creepy asf but also sad he didnt even engaged in sexual acts with the bodies he literally dug them up to displayed them as children dolls n even stuffed there bodys to fill them out n make them look alive along with keeping there jewlry n beloved things so creepy he wanted them as children and even valued then obviously even deseased. but i will say atleast they were already deseased he didnt have sexual urges or killing urges n most criminals seem to have those urges things like this give me chills he wouldnt even cuss in front of them so obviously he respected the childrens purness bc somewhere inbetween he was sane and not sane makes u wonder how many ppl u know who r normal but think bizarre or do bizarre things. lol like that song youll never know if its a murderer sitting next to u.
I think his motive is pretty clear. He is a necrophiliac - in the nonsexual sense. There are actually 10 types of Necrophilia and in his case, it is the desire for companionship, a relationship, lack of rejection, et cetera. His childhood experience if true definitely would have shaped his relationship to corpses, and again makes that unnatural link between warmth, relationships, love and death.
I theorize that didn't happen. He seems deeply delusional. Probably since childhood. I have a feeling his reality and fantasy life were deeply entangled.
@@bernieheartdragon1888 Some people in the comments say they have kissed a dead person at their funeral as like a last goodbye. They say many Russians do it!
The scariest part about this whole story to me is that the cops went to his house on a complete whim and by crazy luck they found what he'd been upto that whole time...this just goes to show that there's probably so much evil going on that we don't even know about and probably never will 😬
But like seriously of ALL people covered here some who are rly scum of the earth serial killers or rapists etc. He didn't rly "hurt" any living girls. The families maybe emotionally hurt and shocked... but I'd not consider him to be that bad in comparison to most of the criminals talked about here.
well they did assume he was digging up people's grave/vandalizing them which he partly was so it wasnt like they came there for one thing and discovered out a whole completely other thing. ur last statement is true tho
I can't imagine someone being able to live near decomposing bodies. The smell is worse than a bag of rotting food. Probably the cause of their health problems 😅
That's such a harrowing thought 😢 That poor girl was brutalised in life and then again in death. My heart bleeds for all the families involved. He should never be allowed to walk free.
Same. I actually started tearing up with the whole "we had her for 10 years, he had her for 9" I can't even imagine the pain her and her parents went though. This whole story is fucked.
I can’t handle kids or their deaths very well, especially since I became a mom. Seeing pictures, especially videos, of their smiling faces and knowing what happened to them is just so painful. 💔
That poor child she was so young and excited to go to her grandmas and died so awfully and even in death she wasn't given any peace I can't even imagine how her parents felt
I can just imagine this guy being interviewed by the cops and he's just like "hey, I was a perfect gentleman. I didn't even curse near the dolls made of child corpses." 😹
Imagine going to your loved one's grave and talking to them saying how much you missed them and they weren't even there. They were in some old man's apartment stuffed into a doll.
I don’t think talking to a grave with a body in it is much different than talking to an empty one. Of course, no one would want a corpse to be messed with, but a dead body is just that, and this grave eventually becomes empty with time. I really think this man was acting in a good faith specially that he was mentally ill. He really shouldn’t be judged and criticized by any of us who have no idea what he went through and what’s going on in his mind because we will never be able to know that.
@@io1915 I’m not justifying or saying it’s something good for a person with full mental capacity to do. But he’s clearly not all there and he believed that he’s doing something good even if it looks creepy to us. You need to be able to step in ppl’s shoes and try to be them and feel and think what they feel and think. You can’t judge ppl from your own position, because you’ll be unjust.
I feel awful for all of the parents but especially them. They had so much trauma I don’t know how they had the strength to survive it. I hope they can find peace. Rest In Peace Olga and all of the girls
I understand how the kissing the corpse situation could have impacted his life. But no one seems to be mentioning the rape when he was in 3rd grade. That would definitely fuck you up.
adults making children spend time with dead people and kiss them was (and still is) a very common thing in russia, especially for older generations, especially when they're religious. when i was a child, my grandma made me and my brother spend a whole NIGHT in the room with my dead grandpa's body, just sitting there and looking at him. we weren't allowed to go to beds, because "grandpa would be lonely". the nightmares i had after that, ugh...and when people say goodbye to a dead person before they close the coffin, everyone must kiss them, otherwise you look like you don't love them.
It doesn’t excuse his actions though. Yea child sexual abuse traumatizes people, especially when they don’t talk about it, but there’s no excuse for doing evil things like digging up dead children. I have a loved one who was sexually abused multiple times as a child, first time at 6 years old and its horrible and still haunts her to this day 40 years later. However it doesn’t excuse doing evil things like this, he knew what he was doing
@@christianvalentine2724 I’m so sorry you had to go through that. Just seeing my grandpa’s corpse when I was 13 traumatised me enough to make me vegetarian. I couldn’t imagine the trauma you experienced.
It always feels extra painful when its like "it was her first time out alone" "she just turned 13. it was her first year allowed out alone" etc. because those poor parents. The first time/batch of times/year you allow that and... I cant even explain it. It just seems so much worse
Yeah it's like the parents build up the courage to let their kid go and have some independence, but they're still worried about something going wrong. But they swallow that fear to make their child happy, then the worst case scenario happens. Crushing.
Yeah I know! Imagine finally saying "It'll be ok. She's old enough to go out on her own now, she knows how to defend herself" and then she gets killed before she can even leave the building! I can't even imagine how guilty you would feel. And the worst part is that it's not the parents' fault whatsoever.
He mentioned how once he was older he regretted not talking to the dead girl in his dreams and learning black magic from her. Maybe subconsciously he was so traumatized from seeing a dead girl as a child that he unknowingly was searching for another experience like that
Or maybe he was forever looking for her? What was the agaes of the girls? Was out that age rang? I think something very traumatic beyind kissing the dead girl happened at that funeral.
Yeah I was thinking about that how not only was she so unfortunate in life to have been murdered but yet another weirdo comes along to steal her body after death? That situation is so highly improbably I'm sure the parents couldn't find a story to parallel it even among the small community of parents of murdered children, what they had to go through is abnormal even for abnormal circumstances. I feel sorry for them having to deal with that. I'm happy her parents got back together and had another baby, that is good & I wish them all the best.
The picture of her holding the cat just breaks my heart... it reminds me of similar pictures of myself as a child, idk, it freaks me out that these things happen to children
when olga’s parents said that he had their daughter for almost the same time as them made me so sad, imagine how they must’ve felt when the news of their daughter being out of her grave in the hands of some random man was out
Yea no. This is the first part two that has come out in a decent amount of time. Last time it was over a week before we got part two. This is how it’s supposed to be done.
@@darcy7498 I literally said yay. I know they take time to make. But when you have people paying you money and you tell them it’ll be up this time and it takes even longer and there are no updates it’s frustrating and not fair
@@haydencavender6768 let me explain: she has to do the research, film it, her editors have to edit the videos (which have other jobs) and then upload it in time, i’m sure she’d be stressed and putting more pressure on her with comments like this won’t help
@@darcy7498 here’s an idea film the whole thing at once. Or don’t accept money from people. Find a new editor or do it yourself. You cannot accept money from people and then not have the product out in a reasonable amount of time
As sad as Olga's story is, I also feel really bad for the families of his "least favorites." Imagine someone stealing your daughter's body and then he keeps her in the garage so he doesn't have to look at her. Like he mutilated those dead children for no reason
I’ve been quite unsocial since I was about 12, can confirm almost 13 years later I haven’t dug up any graves or considered it. Just because you aren’t sociable doesn’t mean you’re gonna be a grave robber.
@@pinkphoenix9735 ofcourse, but it also adds up to everything else and it is a very important factor for a kid to develop these types of skills either way when growing up, theres alot of shy people in the world that are considered unsocial, or antisocial, but considering the extremes of antisocial that he had growing up is different, unless you had exactly the same extreme case happen to you, than i take that back. (btw, i wrote this a month ago and i dont remember the whole case about this man so excuse my lack of knowledge if I say something incorrectly.)
"you left your girls outside in the cold, I brought them in and warmed the up And gave them love" -i remember reading a quote something like that in the paper when he got caught.
As sick and twisted what was done to those little girls is, I am slightly relieved that they had already passed away and weren't killed just for this. Can't imagine the shock and pain the parent's of these victims would've felt.
I agree. It would've been worse if he had snatched some living little girls and turned them into dolls like this. It would've been horrifying. At least the girls he dug up were already dead and their families had already said their proper goodbyes. He shouldn't have disrespected the dead but it's better than the alternative in my opinion.
@@ItsNessaTho yeah while what he did was really bad, turning living people to human dolls and mutilating them is probably on the very top of the list of the most horrific ways for victims to die
@@chrissy3875 I would fucking go apeshit if I found out he did anything more than what he did to my kid - I would absolutely lose it. You can clearly see the parents are pissed and sad but I’d fucking hunt him down - I swear if he ever touched my kid and got off on it let alone caused their death. 9 years is a long af time to do what he did - if he was gonna kill a girl and do it, it’s already woulda happened imo. He deserved a tough sentence and actual mental health treatment and tbh? I think his parents deserve consequences.
This case is so sad. If I was one of the parents reading these letters, I'd think it was someone trying to mock the tragic death. Absolutely disgusting.
This case is absolutely bizarre and I am so fascinated bc it’s one of the more rare cases where the motive isn’t sexual or anger or narcissism or something like that. It’s just bizarre and fascinating
Why did the police go to all the parents to inform them of their child's death? They're police, surely the should know the person is already dead, I mean they were capable of identifying most of them from dental records etc. Makes no sense. Too many holes in this story. And the smell that was so bad the neighbours down the road could smell it but the police couldn't, and the parents couldn't either?
Yeah, i feel like all of this could have been avoided if he was allowed to have a child. Thats all he wanted. I dont think he would have been a terrible parent, since he treated those girls bodies with respect and cared for them like they were his daughters. Obviously I dont condone his actions, but i do understand it to an extent. I just feel bad for him, if things had gone his way a little more, maybe it wouldn't have ended like this.
What makes me sick to my gut is the fact that Olga was so excited to go to her grandma by herself and barely made it out of the apartment before she was horrible killed. I can’t imagine how guilty her parents must have felt for letting her go by herself...
If i was a mother of one of those children and that man had the nerve to say to me " You abandoned your girls in the cold and I brought them home and warmed them up" i stg he wouldn't have a face any longer.
@moonrise dreamer but would they make a random stranger kiss their child and then proclaim that they are married? I have seen people kissing their loved ones but it’s hard to believe they would allow a complete stranger to kiss their daughter. Idk it’s possible but I think highly unlikely, what could have happened is that he was just wandering around the graveyard and saw this funeral and started having hallucinations and stuff like that.
@@Claramtrindade I'm Russian and most of the funerals I've been to were open casket funerals. Usually it's the closest family that kiss the dead person's forehead but if the family allows it, other people can do it as well. The whole ordeal is less creepy now because people don't view death and funerals the same way they did before. I know my family used to take pictures of and with the dead relative. We still have them. To this day we put makeup, jewelery and nice clothes on the bodies when we hold an open casket funeral. The outlook on death here is very different from the western one so westerners usually see our practices as creepy, but when you're raised like this, it's all not that strange. Anatoli was mentally ill so it might have triggered something in him but for a healthy person it's not that big of a deal. Sorry for the long comment, I can't really explain things in English that well.
@@АнастасияЛаврентьева-я6э yes I understand but here is not the case that he wanted to and the family gave him permission, but the case where the family forced him to, which is something else entirely different.
@@АнастасияЛаврентьева-я6э cause if it was the case that he asked or was allowed to kiss the girl, it would mean that he took action towards doing that and not that he was forced to do as he says he was, and there is also the fact that he says the mother said they got married which made him see his deceased wife in his dream which were another delusion.
Right?! Neighbors thought it was a "sewer problem"! Really?! 😳 they must have some rank, dead-body-filled sewers in Russia then! Casey Anthony's mother straight up told 9-1-1 that the trunk of her car smelled like a dead body! Yet all these people around this creepy fuck just ignore the smell of more than 20 putrefying corpses as "sewer problems". Okay then.... 😳🤢
@@lcoq19 Well, he was a history professor though. It would make sense he found a good and successful process of mummification. So, not much decomposition. With this many even a "tiny mistake" could smell really bad, but honestly I don't think most would ever even think of this as a possibility.
@@arundhatijana1414 they are these little virtual pets. It's toy from Japan that became quite popular in the 2000. It's looks like a colorful egg with the same quality screen as a calculator and a couple buttons.
Honestly, I feel kinda bad for him, yes ofc it's awful everything he's done but there was obviously something wrong going on in his brain along with the trauma he experienced in his childhood. It's sad that he wanted a daughter so badly he felt the need to take someone else's throughout their rest. Also surly it would be impossible for his parents not go notice something was wrong they should have helped him especially when he told them about his nightmares when he was a kid
Honestly this is (from my perspective) a case that I feel could of been totally avoided. If he hadn’t had those traumatic experiences, if he had been raised in a way that prioritised compassion above all else, if he had been in a community with good mental health support.... he might have ended up as a nice person.
That being said it does feel a bit weird to have so much empathy for someone who did such awful things and my empathy for him in no way reduces or excuses the harm he caused
Well, in part 1 it was said that his parents actually took him to a therapist after that funeral, when he had the recurrimg nightmares, but it was said it was kind of normal... :/
I think his twisted mind felt so much guilt after “abandoning” his wife in those dreams that he didn’t want to do that to any other little girl. The whole story is so depressing.
Well I guess it could be because the nose gets used to smells very quickly, as awful as it is in this situation. Like I've heard a lot of people working around dead people (morgue workers, pathologists, funeral directors etc.) say that it takes just a few deep breaths to not smell the strong odors of decay or the chemicals anymore (or at least not as strongly)
My granddad use to stay with us and he always shxt him self n it smelled badddd but we go use to the smell and its likee we didnt smell it anymore, but when we got visitors they smelt it
I had a hamster die and I knew my room smelled terribly but I didn't know my hamster had died a week ago. You never adjust to the smell of death... It's too much.
@@evnml it’s more creepy tbh. it’s so horrible what he did, but we can see why he turned out the way he did. not justifying his actions, just seeing WHY he ended up with his actions so horrific. he didn’t ever hurt these girls i genuinely think he wanted to take care of them but went the WRONGGG way about it.
@@leah-hb4km I agree 1000% I use to wonder whether my family member was cold and them being alone. His intentions wasn't bad he to me saw them as real little girls. It wasn't right at all for what he did but the reason.....
what he did was gross but throughout the whole video i was thinking 'well at least he didn't actually hurt them' like the bar is absolutely to the floor but i at least have some comfort knowing that he wasn't the one to hurt the girls nor did he do anything particularly disgusting to the bodies. i still think he should be imprisoned though, even if he didn't have sinister intentions. like the man has TWENTY SIX bodies and has no remorse... yikes.
I get that, but I still think it's horrific. I can't imagine how the families felt knowing that a stranger desecrated their loved ones' graves, dug up their bodies, tore and stuffed them, and displayed them like decorations. Can't even wrap my head around the level of disgust and rage I would feel if it was a member of my family. ETA: Plus he was also a nazi sympathizer, racist, and fascist which lessens any potential understanding even more. He didn't even see living humans as equals.
eleanor's cases dont usually bother me, but this one definitely did😟 the fact that he dug out their chests to put music boxes is SICK. absolutely sick!
One of the parents of one of the girls openly thanked him for "taking care" and "keeping warm" their daughter. She also used to write him and had a friendship with him. Which is also super bizarre.
I can get why they said that he gave them birthdays, talked to them daily, kept then in a warm house not a cold dark grave, and showed them off like its something he truly loved but it's just creepy what he did
I can get that in a way. I can’t imagine anything worse than your child dying. Then to have to suffer then being buried in the ground all alone (even though yes it’s now just a body it is still traumatizing). So in this way I can kind of understand his point of view as well. There’s definitely much worse things he could have done with them. It’s just sad all around.
Thank you for adding the story of Olga's parents reuniting and having a son. It's not a replacement-but it is living, it is continuing to love. I wish this for every parent that loses a child. God bless and peace to sweet little Olga❤️
I kinda feel bad for the dude.....he was raped at a young age and then forced to marry and kiss a womans dead girl at 12......like that would fuck anyone up while he did desecrate the graves and disrespected the families and the children i just hope the guy does get the help he needs and deserves
@@liamcollinson5695 he could be but he had those bad dreams so much his parents took him to a psychiatrist like I don't think a child would lie about all of that
The story about Olga breaks my heart so much. She was so excited to go out on her own and her poor parents probably relive that day every single day full of regret. A parent’s worst nightmare. Rip angel 💔😔
Please like this so Eleanor can hopefully see this. Hi Eleanor, I was wondering if you could do a video on Brian Shookman. He went missing in 2012 and he was a family friend. There isn’t much on the case but there was a cold justice episode made about him not too long ago. I know there’s probably not enough to make an actual video about it but if you could I know his sister and mom would appreciate it so much as would I.
PFFFT- Oh no under this video I'm getting an American Girl Doll advertisement 😂 RUclips nooo, this shouldn't be related... 😭 Now I can't stop thinking about American Girl dolls with remains in them
"they didn't know that their grave was empty for the last few years, that they had been going and morning and grieving and praying over an empty grave, meanwhile their daughter was dressed up as a doll in some mans apartment" absolutely destroying poor girls and their family, to be taken from the world so soon anyway, then not even being able to rest peacefully :(
@@beepaninii2646 No the scumbag is the one that that killed her, the psychopath is the one that turned her into a doll, and the court was the one that order him into the facility that the poor family can see from their window.
I know! And then not only was her body rapped up and kept in a psychopaths house. But then when they moved they could see the mental hospital that psychopath was kept in from their window. I feel so bad for them
He’s not a psychopath. That terms thrown around too much. Most people with psychopathy are good members of society. He does however have paranoid schizophrenia which literally means he doesn’t really have control over what he’s doing as his brain doesn’t function correctly and feeds him delusions and makes him think he’s in the right. This could’ve been avoided if people took him more seriously when he started having the nightmares and then when he started having obsessions with dolls in the first place before the human dolls. His parents don’t seem awfully great to not know there’s something very wrong with the grown man living in their house
this story hit so hard. if this man was treated properly for his mental illnesses and trauma when he was young, none of this would have happened. thank you eleanor for always prioritizing the victim's dignity
This is why I'm a fan of not using coffins and caskets. When I die I just wanna decompose. I am very content becoming worm and mushroom food. Why the fuck do humans feel the need to put them in in a casket and then into a concrete box and into the ground. Let me decompose in peace, why you trynna make it so difficult.
I'd really like to do a natural burial, but if that's not an option I think I can live with alkaline hydrolysis. I'd really like to be donated to a body farm, but I think that might be difficult for my husband and children to cope with.
@@ummm6068 some religions demand they be buried with all organs or they go to hell, can't even donate blood so the coffins and stuff goes along with that somewhat
Something to really absorb is the story of Olga, not only did her parents have to deal with someone murdering their daughter and victimizing her, but then finding out some stranger sickly dug up their daughter afterwards and kept her in his home - thus victimizing her and the family all over again. Smh.
I'm glad Olga's parents were able to connect again. That's such a terrible situation, where you're both grieving, and you want to support each other, but the things you need are so totally different that you can't. They obviously loved her and each other very much. It's so shitty what happened to Olga on all fronts. I'm glad they're able to have a family together now and find some happiness.
The fact that he reburied Olga's body proves that he knew it was wrong. Also I find it really hard to believe that he's parents were unaware of this happening if this was occurring for nearly 10 years, i hope these girls are resting peacefully now
I don’t think that necessarily indicates he knew or believed it was wrong. It simple indicates he knew it was illegal and he would be punished if caught. Just like I know speeding is illegal and I slow down when I pass areas where cops typically set speed traps but I don’t believe its “wrong” as long as I’m paying attention to my surroundings and driving safely.
This is why I don't respect intelligence alone. If he's so "smart" he should've figured out that shit is wrong, regardless of the law. Of course, if he was so damn smart he also should've figured out that black magic is fake 🤷🏻♂️
Eleanor always apologizes for her tangents or that she goes off too much. But she really doesn’t, like I’ve never thought to myself, “stop talking get back to the story!”. I enjoy the tangents. 😂
Has anyone backed up his story about his “marriage” at 12? Did his parents see the ring the mother supposedly put on his finger? Perhaps that was all a hallucination. I’m not sure, but isn’t it about 12-13 when schizophrenia starts showing signs?
in some religions/cultures they believe a person cant pass into the afterlife if they werent married so they're "married" to someone after death. So I assume the story was real.
I'm always skeptical of this part too, and I find it ironic that people take ths part as a fact when when I hear this case. It just seems like a horror fantasy of sorts from him and the mother conviently has wedding bands, fruit and money? The girl's name doesnt even sound foreign, he claims her family spoke another language.
i can't imagine what it would've been like for those families. to not only lose and bury a child at such an early age, to then find their grave descerated for up to nine years, and then find out a 40 yo man had dug that child up, mummified her, dressed her up in clothes from the garbage and have her lay around his house. then when you do find out, sitting in the courthouse with him, for him to tell you that you abandoned your child. i so angry at him for what he did, i cannot imagine how much rage those parents feel.
because this one is horrible and disgusting. imagine DIGGING a KID out of their grave and REPLACING their insides with a music box and not letting them rest in peace.
The fact that these things happen in reality and not just in some fictional horror movie just feels so surreal. Poor girls couldn’t even rest peacefully :(
As peculiar and horrible as this case may be, I think there’s something (disturbingly) sweet about the way he treated these girls, it’s so twisted and must stem from some unique trauma and incomprehensible events shaping him as he grew up, not to mention his specific interests, but here was a man who was, supposedly, lonely and deprived of a daughter and saw giving a new, loving life to a child deprived of a full life a good thing. He cared for the girls in so much detail, and as creepy as the case is, irregardless of his horrible politics and views, the fact he saw this as such as genuinely good makes this a much sadder tale all round I think. It’s horrible to think like this but I think it’s something worth considering
yeah this guy is a disgusting person but i really don’t think he had a sexual thing with the dolls. I think he did genuinely love them like daughters. As horrible as his political views are I feel almost bad for the guy. His life could’ve been so different if that stuff hasn’t happened to him as a child
I don't think it's horrible to think like this, I think it shows empathy and understanding for a person and not the choices they make. Who are we to judge? I agree that there is an essence of innocence to this story.
honestly when i started watching this case i thought something worse was going to happen, honestly kinda glad that he treated the bodies the way he did, it could‘ve been so much worse,,, only reason i dont feel 100% sorry for him is because he was a nazi
He was talking about how he thought those families of the girls had "abandoned" them, so that might have been a delusion/hallucination cause by some caused by some of his mental issues. He saw it as "saving" the children, and saw them as his own children, which, is so sad. What he did was terrible, but I'm sure be was suffering from such awful mental issues. It looks like he genuinely believed that he was doing a good thing, even if that wasn't the case.
Honestly I want to know how olga's parents and the other families have coped with this, I couldn't , olga was stolen from her family twice, so heartbreaking😞
I've actually read somewhere that a group of students came to Moskvin's apartment for an extra history lecture (as he worked as a professor in the university that these students attended) and they noticed the dolls and that weird smell. But they had no idea what was going on, they were terrified and ran out of his apartment as soon as the lecture was finished
I'm actually surprise he did not end up digging up his supposed "ghost wife" to do the same to her. After all she was the beginning of everything
He knew and visited her grave, so it's not like he couldn't try. Maybe he accepted that his tooth offering meant that she could never return.
@@fruitygarlic3601 it wouldn’t surprise if this tooth offering was some sort of ritual that made him feel drawn to black magic and cemeteries
Didn't think of that 👀
@Sophie vbiasland x good point! Would be hard to work with and too far gone to bring her back to life
i think its because he tried to get girls who werent decomposing too much. so at that time his "wife" wouldve been completely decomposed
why is nobody talking about how there was a doll in his parents room?? they had to have smelt it and why wouldn’t they move it, it was their bedroom. the parents are not saying their full involvement
Exactly. And the other dolls too. Had to have a stench. 🤢 Dude was totally demented.
When you smell something for a long period of time it becomes normal to your brain so they might not have noticed it after a while so they might have thought it went away
Well,when they said he made dolls of them,they mean it. Their skin were plastic-ish. So they didn't smell badly.

RIGHT like come on yall. They knew.

...he spent weeks mummifying them. They aren't going to smell of a body that is decomposing. It stinks but doesn't compare to the smell of decomp. So there is a chance his parents didn't actually know.
To be honest I can imagine that they didn't know for one simple reason: if they learned of it would they have been willing to stay there? I mean any sane person would have moved house - or at least make sure to stay as far of these "dolls" as possible, certainly not have one in their bedroom as well. :/

One thing I'm relieved about is he didn't kill any living person... even though he ended up disrespecting the dead.
But at some point, like it always does, it would have escalated
im pretty sure that if he hadn't ever been caught, he'd probably started killing young girls for some "death is better than life, that's what the corpse dolls told me" reason
@@joseanurkkalainen2832 It's possibility... but we can't judge someone on something that he didn't do yet...what he could've done can't be called to be judged as he didn't do it yet.

@@stephanienoblet8503 this doesn't prove that the guy in this video would've done the same.
You talking about Olga and Olga's family didn't feel like a tangent; it humanized her and drove home the point that she was someone's little girl and these are real people affected by this man's crime.
exactly! i really appreciate that part. i like how she does it in pretty much all videos. kinda reminds you that these aren't just people who died, they're people who lived. they had personalities and interests and such
Abolsutely. It made the case feel more real and helped me to think deeper into the family's perspectives. When videos focus so heavily on the criminal and their life and psychology, sometimes we forget to celebrate and learn about the victims and try to understand the full effects of the crime
Ya like before she goes into that it’s like ok he didn’t kill anyone or hurt anyone so he’s not nearly as horrible as the other criminals she’s covered but after that it shows you how bad what he did actually was
Just think about the father, staying in his daughter's bedroom. Thinking she is just lost, no. She is gone forever, I nearly kind of cried when Eleanor said the last place she said as I love you dad, it feels awful how that was happening to the father, and the mother and all of Olga's family, thinking she was missing. When she was dead, behind pipes then in the guy's bedroom.
Came to the comments looking for this right here. Def not a tangent and so worthy of the insight.
“I never disfigured the bodies”
“You DUG OUT THEIR CHESTS?”
i think it's the dolls chest?😂
@@miadominique3351 the dolls are the dead bodies
Dug out chest and put items in them
They were mummified deseased children bodies and the guy had mental issues he didnt want to engage in sexual acts wanted a daughter. Couldnt adpot have one of his owns or kidnap a live child n go to prison so dug up children that were deceased and turnt them into dolls basically put a hole in there chest to put music box or voice box in there chest so they have voices. its creepy asf but also sad he didnt even engaged in sexual acts with the bodies he literally dug them up to displayed them as children dolls n even stuffed there bodys to fill them out n make them look alive along with keeping there jewlry n beloved things so creepy he wanted them as children and even valued then obviously even deseased. but i will say atleast they were already deseased he didnt have sexual urges or killing urges n most criminals seem to have those urges things like this give me chills he wouldnt even cuss in front of them so obviously he respected the childrens purness bc somewhere inbetween he was sane and not sane makes u wonder how many ppl u know who r normal but think bizarre or do bizarre things. lol like that song youll never know if its a murderer sitting next to u.
@@raerae886 very true. Could you imagine if he did... next level horror
I think his motive is pretty clear. He is a necrophiliac - in the nonsexual sense. There are actually 10 types of Necrophilia and in his case, it is the desire for companionship, a relationship, lack of rejection, et cetera. His childhood experience if true definitely would have shaped his relationship to corpses, and again makes that unnatural link between warmth, relationships, love and death.
¿Dahmer wannabe?
I agree. When you look at the definition of necrophilia, it's an intense obsession with death and the dead. He was a necrophiliac.

Wait
I really think it was the childhood sexual assault that started it all
But are we sure that actually happened or was that just a part of his schizophrenia
I theorize that didn't happen. He seems deeply delusional. Probably since childhood. I have a feeling his reality and fantasy life were deeply entangled.
@@bernieheartdragon1888 Some people in the comments say they have kissed a dead person at their funeral as like a last goodbye. They say many Russians do it!
The scariest part about this whole story to me is that the cops went to his house on a complete whim and by crazy luck they found what he'd been upto that whole time...this just goes to show that there's probably so much evil going on that we don't even know about and probably never will 😬
never thought about it like that 😳 so scary
They have caught a ton of serial killers just like this. They go for one reason and then discover something completely different and horrifying.
But like seriously of ALL people covered here some who are rly scum of the earth serial killers or rapists etc.
He didn't rly "hurt" any living girls.
The families maybe emotionally hurt and shocked... but I'd not consider him to be that bad in comparison to most of the criminals talked about here.
well they did assume he was digging up people's grave/vandalizing them which he partly was so it wasnt like they came there for one thing and discovered out a whole completely other thing. ur last statement is true tho
Like, if they did not went into that house he probably would still have the girls…
: "Honey, the dolls smell like rotten meat."
: "Our son is an artist."

Imagine going to your loved one's grave and talking to them saying how much you missed them and they weren't even there. They were in some old man's apartment stuffed into a doll.
Their body isn't there. But their souls, their spirit, which has been freed from the physical restraints of their body, is always with you!
I don’t think talking to a grave with a body in it is much different than talking to an empty one. Of course, no one would want a corpse to be messed with, but a dead body is just that, and this grave eventually becomes empty with time. I really think this man was acting in a good faith specially that he was mentally ill. He really shouldn’t be judged and criticized by any of us who have no idea what he went through and what’s going on in his mind because we will never be able to know that.
so sad :(

i legit almost cried when i heard that cause it's such a nice thing in a video with so much dark stuff
I understand how the kissing the corpse situation could have impacted his life. But no one seems to be mentioning the rape when he was in 3rd grade. That would definitely fuck you up.
adults making children spend time with dead people and kiss them was (and still is) a very common thing in russia, especially for older generations, especially when they're religious. when i was a child, my grandma made me and my brother spend a whole NIGHT in the room with my dead grandpa's body, just sitting there and looking at him. we weren't allowed to go to beds, because "grandpa would be lonely". the nightmares i had after that, ugh...and when people say goodbye to a dead person before they close the coffin, everyone must kiss them, otherwise you look like you don't love them.
It doesn’t excuse his actions though. Yea child sexual abuse traumatizes people, especially when they don’t talk about it, but there’s no excuse for doing evil things like digging up dead children. I have a loved one who was sexually abused multiple times as a child, first time at 6 years old and its horrible and still haunts her to this day 40 years later. However it doesn’t excuse doing evil things like this, he knew what he was doing

Yeah it's like the parents build up the courage to let their kid go and have some independence, but they're still worried about something going wrong. But they swallow that fear to make their child happy, then the worst case scenario happens. Crushing.
This is why I'm too scared to let my kids out alone!!!

He mentioned how once he was older he regretted not talking to the dead girl in his dreams and learning black magic from her. Maybe subconsciously he was so traumatized from seeing a dead girl as a child that he unknowingly was searching for another experience like that
Or maybe he was forever looking for her? What was the agaes of the girls? Was out that age rang? I think something very traumatic beyind kissing the dead girl happened at that funeral.

Yeah I was thinking about that how not only was she so unfortunate in life to have been murdered but yet another weirdo comes along to steal her body after death? That situation is so highly improbably I'm sure the parents couldn't find a story to parallel it even among the small community of parents of murdered children, what they had to go through is abnormal even for abnormal circumstances. I feel sorry for them having to deal with that. I'm happy her parents got back together and had another baby, that is good & I wish them all the best.

Usually it's the closest family that kiss the dead person's forehead but if the family allows it, other people can do it as well. The whole ordeal is less creepy now because people don't view death and funerals the same way they did before. I know my family used to take pictures of and with the dead relative. We still have them. To this day we put makeup, jewelery and nice clothes on the bodies when we hold an open casket funeral.

Honestly, I feel kinda bad for him, yes ofc it's awful everything he's done but there was obviously something wrong going on in his brain along with the trauma he experienced in his childhood. It's sad that he wanted a daughter so badly he felt the need to take someone else's throughout their rest. Also surly it would be impossible for his parents not go notice something was wrong they should have helped him especially when he told them about his nightmares when he was a kid
That’s what I said
Honestly this is (from my perspective) a case that I feel could of been totally avoided. If he hadn’t had those traumatic experiences, if he had been raised in a way that prioritised compassion above all else, if he had been in a community with good mental health support.... he might have ended up as a nice person.
That being said it does feel a bit weird to have so much empathy for someone who did such awful things and my empathy for him in no way reduces or excuses the harm he caused
Same
Well, in part 1 it was said that his parents actually took him to a therapist after that funeral, when he had the recurrimg nightmares, but it was said it was kind of normal... :/
Absolutely terrifying knowing that people like that exist.
I love your pfp
@@Elle-sr1hs thanks :)
I think his twisted mind felt so much guilt after “abandoning” his wife in those dreams that he didn’t want to do that to any other little girl. The whole story is so depressing.
so you’re telling me that the neighbors could smell it but his parents who literally lived w him couldn’t? cmon now
Well I guess it could be because the nose gets used to smells very quickly, as awful as it is in this situation. Like I've heard a lot of people working around dead people (morgue workers, pathologists, funeral directors etc.) say that it takes just a few deep breaths to not smell the strong odors of decay or the chemicals anymore (or at least not as strongly)
More like u get used to the smell enough to not gag everytime but u will still realize it stinks. At least thats what i have seen in hospitals.
Prolly they got use to the smell so it doesnt bother them but something aint right tho
My granddad use to stay with us and he always shxt him self n it smelled badddd but we go use to the smell and its likee we didnt smell it anymore, but when we got visitors they smelt it
I had a hamster die and I knew my room smelled terribly but I didn't know my hamster had died a week ago. You never adjust to the smell of death... It's too much.
Well... at least he didn't kill them...
So it could be worse
My bar is so low after all the videos
Same,I was like oh this is not that bad
@@evnml it’s more creepy tbh. it’s so horrible what he did, but we can see why he turned out the way he did. not justifying his actions, just seeing WHY he ended up with his actions so horrific. he didn’t ever hurt these girls i genuinely think he wanted to take care of them but went the WRONGGG way about it.
@@leah-hb4km I agree 1000% I use to wonder whether my family member was cold and them being alone. His intentions wasn't bad he to me saw them as real little girls. It wasn't right at all for what he did but the reason.....
what he did was gross but throughout the whole video i was thinking 'well at least he didn't actually hurt them' like the bar is absolutely to the floor but i at least have some comfort knowing that he wasn't the one to hurt the girls nor did he do anything particularly disgusting to the bodies. i still think he should be imprisoned though, even if he didn't have sinister intentions. like the man has TWENTY SIX bodies and has no remorse... yikes.
I get that, but I still think it's horrific. I can't imagine how the families felt knowing that a stranger desecrated their loved ones' graves, dug up their bodies, tore and stuffed them, and displayed them like decorations. Can't even wrap my head around the level of disgust and rage I would feel if it was a member of my family.
ETA: Plus he was also a nazi sympathizer, racist, and fascist which lessens any potential understanding even more. He didn't even see living humans as equals.
eleanor's cases dont usually bother me, but this one definitely did😟 the fact that he dug out their chests to put music boxes is SICK. absolutely sick!
oh man, that poor little Olga girl's story made me so sad! that is so horrific, her poor mother, my heart just sank...
One of the parents of one of the girls openly thanked him for "taking care" and "keeping warm" their daughter. She also used to write him and had a friendship with him. Which is also super bizarre.
I can get why they said that he gave them birthdays, talked to them daily, kept then in a warm house not a cold dark grave, and showed them off like its something he truly loved but it's just creepy what he did
I can get that in a way. I can’t imagine anything worse than your child dying. Then to have to suffer then being buried in the ground all alone (even though yes it’s now just a body it is still traumatizing). So in this way I can kind of understand his point of view as well. There’s definitely much worse things he could have done with them. It’s just sad all around.
Exactly. But I can see his prospective. He thought dead bodies still had souls. When those souls are in heaven.
Thank you for adding the story of Olga's parents reuniting and having a son. It's not a replacement-but it is living, it is continuing to love. I wish this for every parent that loses a child. God bless and peace to sweet little Olga❤️
I kinda feel bad for the dude.....he was raped at a young age and then forced to marry and kiss a womans dead girl at 12......like that would fuck anyone up while he did desecrate the graves and disrespected the families and the children i just hope the guy does get the help he needs and deserves
true
Yeah but hes also a nazi lol
Or he could just be lying completely
@@liamcollinson5695 agree , hes been living in a pshychotic fantasy world, I think he made up the Kissing the dead girl in his head
@@liamcollinson5695 he could be but he had those bad dreams so much his parents took him to a psychiatrist like I don't think a child would lie about all of that
Well... at least he didn’t kill them.
*Sigh* the bar is so low
ikr, i also thought ''at least it wasnt a sex thing'' because the bar is necrophilia level low
Nice stolen comment
@@Lydkm05 I did not steal anything. If someone commented the same thing, I am then happy that we think alike.
@@SaraHRdz49 mhm sure
@@Lydkm05 lol no one asked
I love how the cops were with Natalia, knowing there isn’t much they can do and giving her an out if she did
Jesus Christ, Poor Olga just can't catch a break, even in death. That poor poor girl.
Ikr, just let her rest )-:
The ONLY youtuber I watch ALL the ads for because my girl deserves the coin 🤍
literally me haha x
The story about Olga breaks my heart so much. She was so excited to go out on her own and her poor parents probably relive that day every single day full of regret. A parent’s worst nightmare. Rip angel 💔😔
Please like this so Eleanor can hopefully see this.
Hi Eleanor, I was wondering if you could do a video on Brian Shookman. He went missing in 2012 and he was a family friend. There isn’t much on the case but there was a cold justice episode made about him not too long ago. I know there’s probably not enough to make an actual video about it but if you could I know his sister and mom would appreciate it so much as would I.
PFFFT-
Oh no under this video I'm getting an American Girl Doll advertisement 😂
RUclips nooo, this shouldn't be related... 😭 Now I can't stop thinking about American Girl dolls with remains in them
yeah i got one when i watched part one
😳
That's not creepy. 😐
OH NO-
Me: *looks over at all my American girl dolls*
"they didn't know that their grave was empty for the last few years, that they had been going and morning and grieving and praying over an empty grave, meanwhile their daughter was dressed up as a doll in some mans apartment" absolutely destroying poor girls and their family, to be taken from the world so soon anyway, then not even being able to rest peacefully :(
Olga’s parents I’m sure took her death extremely hard 😔 their worst fear about allowing her to walk alone actually happened 💔
How tragic and heartbreaking..the first time and this scumbag comes along
@@laurarudolph7451 scumbag is un understatement. that man was sick in the head.
@@beepaninii2646 No the scumbag is the one that that killed her, the psychopath is the one that turned her into a doll, and the court was the one that order him into the facility that the poor family can see from their window.
I know! And then not only was her body rapped up and kept in a psychopaths house. But then when they moved they could see the mental hospital that psychopath was kept in from their window. I feel so bad for them
He’s not a psychopath. That terms thrown around too much. Most people with psychopathy are good members of society. He does however have paranoid schizophrenia which literally means he doesn’t really have control over what he’s doing as his brain doesn’t function correctly and feeds him delusions and makes him think he’s in the right. This could’ve been avoided if people took him more seriously when he started having the nightmares and then when he started having obsessions with dolls in the first place before the human dolls. His parents don’t seem awfully great to not know there’s something very wrong with the grown man living in their house
i feel so bad for olga and her family. they didn't get to have their peace after all they'd already been through.
this story hit so hard. if this man was treated properly for his mental illnesses and trauma when he was young, none of this would have happened. thank you eleanor for always prioritizing the victim's dignity
This is partly why I’m a fan of cremation.
This is why I'm a fan of not using coffins and caskets. When I die I just wanna decompose. I am very content becoming worm and mushroom food. Why the fuck do humans feel the need to put them in in a casket and then into a concrete box and into the ground. Let me decompose in peace, why you trynna make it so difficult.
@@ummm6068 YOOOO I WANNA BE FED TO CARNIVOROUS ANIMALS specifically big cats
@@ummm6068 what if we just buried the ashes? like so you're still at a permanent place of rest but it's pretty much impossible to rob your grave
I'd really like to do a natural burial, but if that's not an option I think I can live with alkaline hydrolysis. I'd really like to be donated to a body farm, but I think that might be difficult for my husband and children to cope with.
@@ummm6068 some religions demand they be buried with all organs or they go to hell, can't even donate blood so the coffins and stuff goes along with that somewhat
Something to really absorb is the story of Olga, not only did her parents have to deal with someone murdering their daughter and victimizing her, but then finding out some stranger sickly dug up their daughter afterwards and kept her in his home - thus victimizing her and the family all over again. Smh.
I'm glad Olga's parents were able to connect again. That's such a terrible situation, where you're both grieving, and you want to support each other, but the things you need are so totally different that you can't. They obviously loved her and each other very much. It's so shitty what happened to Olga on all fronts. I'm glad they're able to have a family together now and find some happiness.
The fact that he reburied Olga's body proves that he knew it was wrong. Also I find it really hard to believe that he's parents were unaware of this happening if this was occurring for nearly 10 years, i hope these girls are resting peacefully now
I don’t think that necessarily indicates he knew or believed it was wrong. It simple indicates he knew it was illegal and he would be punished if caught. Just like I know speeding is illegal and I slow down when I pass areas where cops typically set speed traps but I don’t believe its “wrong” as long as I’m paying attention to my surroundings and driving safely.
This is why I don't respect intelligence alone. If he's so "smart" he should've figured out that shit is wrong, regardless of the law.
Of course, if he was so damn smart he also should've figured out that black magic is fake 🤷🏻♂️
Olga's story is so horribly sad, I couldn't imagine being one of her parents in that scenario, they must relive that day over and over in their minds.
Eleanor always apologizes for her tangents or that she goes off too much. But she really doesn’t, like I’ve never thought to myself, “stop talking get back to the story!”. I enjoy the tangents. 😂
Has anyone backed up his story about his “marriage” at 12? Did his parents see the ring the mother supposedly put on his finger? Perhaps that was all a hallucination. I’m not sure, but isn’t it about 12-13 when schizophrenia starts showing signs?
in some religions/cultures they believe a person cant pass into the afterlife if they werent married so they're "married" to someone after death. So I assume the story was real.
I'm always skeptical of this part too, and I find it ironic that people take ths part as a fact when when I hear this case. It just seems like a horror fantasy of sorts from him and the mother conviently has wedding bands, fruit and money? The girl's name doesnt even sound foreign, he claims her family spoke another language.
Schizophrenia usually starts showing in late teens or early adulthood, not childhood. It's super uncommon.
It usually presents later in life. 18to 24
Maddie lol...as if he were in any way common...
I feel so bad for Olga her story is heartbreaking
i can't imagine what it would've been like for those families. to not only lose and bury a child at such an early age, to then find their grave descerated for up to nine years, and then find out a 40 yo man had dug that child up, mummified her, dressed her up in clothes from the garbage and have her lay around his house. then when you do find out, sitting in the courthouse with him, for him to tell you that you abandoned your child. i so angry at him for what he did, i cannot imagine how much rage those parents feel.
man, as a doll collector and a person who is not comepletely insane i believe that Anatoly should never leave the asylum he's in
why does this case make me feel more sick then all the other gruesome cases??
because this one is horrible and disgusting. imagine DIGGING a KID out of their grave and REPLACING their insides with a music box and not letting them rest in peace.
The fact that these things happen in reality and not just in some fictional horror movie just feels so surreal. Poor girls couldn’t even rest peacefully :(
i love how strong this community is, within a few mins of posting theres already so much love and support
you should cover the Megan Lancaster case. there's like no media coverage of it, and it's from my city.
hows she suppost to do that it theres no media coverage
megan is missing
@@evaweisel8674 no it's different. look her up :)
@@ended_ellipsis i said "there's like no media coverage" meaning there's barely any :)
@@em-rv4ip so how is she supposed to do an accurate video of her if there’s barely any info
"It could just be him and his girls". Why on earth did that send a chill down my spine?
As peculiar and horrible as this case may be, I think there’s something (disturbingly) sweet about the way he treated these girls, it’s so twisted and must stem from some unique trauma and incomprehensible events shaping him as he grew up, not to mention his specific interests, but here was a man who was,
supposedly, lonely and deprived of a daughter and saw giving a new, loving life to a child deprived of a full life a good thing. He cared for the girls in so much detail, and as creepy as the case is, irregardless of his horrible politics and views, the fact he saw this as such as genuinely good makes this a much sadder tale all round I think. It’s horrible to think like this but I think it’s something worth considering
yeah this guy is a disgusting person but i really don’t think he had a sexual thing with the dolls. I think he did genuinely love them like daughters. As horrible as his political views are I feel almost bad for the guy. His life could’ve been so different if that stuff hasn’t happened to him as a child
I don't think it's horrible to think like this, I think it shows empathy and understanding for a person and not the choices they make. Who are we to judge? I agree that there is an essence of innocence to this story.
honestly when i started watching this case i thought something worse was going to happen, honestly kinda glad that he treated the bodies the way he did, it could‘ve been so much worse,,, only reason i dont feel 100% sorry for him is because he was a nazi
He was talking about how he thought those families of the girls had "abandoned" them, so that might have been a delusion/hallucination cause by some caused by some of his mental issues. He saw it as "saving" the children, and saw them as his own children, which, is so sad. What he did was terrible, but I'm sure be was suffering from such awful mental issues. It looks like he genuinely believed that he was doing a good thing, even if that wasn't the case.
same, i honestly pity him
I don’t feel sorry for him. I do feel sorry he didn’t get help. Shame on his family. I feel so sorry for the families of these precious angels.
THIS!!!
Thank you for sharing Olga's story, I hadn't heard it before. RIP 💙
omg when Eleanor said part 2 was coming soon, she really meant it 😌👑💖
@F E R N E S H A that’s cool
i thought dolls couldnt be scarier.. this shits horrifying
truly, this is another level of wrong
Honestly I want to know how olga's parents and the other families have coped with this, I couldn't , olga was stolen from her family twice, so heartbreaking😞
For some reason this creeped me out way more than the normal serial killer videos 😰
legit how would the parents NOT know there are 26 rotting corpses in their APARTMENT its not even a whole house its an apartment i call bullshit
Their as guilty as him
I watch a lot of true crime stuff, but hearing about Olga and her family made me cry so much
there’s no way that his parents were okay with having a life size doll at the end if their bed, like no way
I've actually read somewhere that a group of students came to Moskvin's apartment for an extra history lecture (as he worked as a professor in the university that these students attended) and they noticed the dolls and that weird smell. But they had no idea what was going on, they were terrified and ran out of his apartment as soon as the lecture was finished
