An artist and horror fan has constructed a scarily accurate replica dollhouse of serial killer Dennis Nilsen's home - complete with human remains clogging the drain. The Mirror reports it also includes a bin bag containing a torso, a bloody knife, a severed head in a cooking pot and even Nilsen's pet dog Bleep.
The model worth £150, is based on the kitchen of the North London flat where Nilsen murdered at least 12 young men prior to his arrest in 1983. One shopper who came across the web advert said: “Victims’ families will be horrified.”
It is listed for sale on Etsy by Rakele R, who describes herself as “a London based woodworker with a taste for the macabre”, and is inspired by books and horror films such as The Shining, Carrie, The Exorcist and Buffalo Bill's basement from The Silence of the Lambs. Potential buyers of the model are told: "Handmade wooden dollhouse on scale. Dennis Nilsen crime scene replica at 23 Cranley Gardens, London 1983… The sink includes a see-through pipe with human remains within. Acrylic painted and varnish finished. It measures 38cm x 22.”
