Episode 334: Japan’s Twitter Killer Sleeps With 9 SEVERED HEADS In His Tiny Tokyo Apartment


 

He woke up from the smell. His head was pounding as his eyes adjusted to the harsh bathroom light. Did he drink too much the night before?

What is that smell?

He reached his hand up to rub his eyes… it was covered in blood. He looked down - blood. All over his clothes, the tiles, everywhere.

He slowly turned his head to the bathtub - and there floating in the water… were dismembered body parts. Along with a severed head with long black hair that was getting tangled…

“I swear I woke up and there was just a body here.” The police would never fall for it. He had no choice but to put on a raincoat, mask, and eye goggles and get to work. Finish the job.

But eventually he would stop right? This would be the 9th severed head in his collection.
