A Russian historian has stunned many when he held birthday parties for 150 little girls he had dug up from their graves and mummified.
Anatoly Moskvin, 46, from the city of Nizhny Novgorod in central Russia, was arrested after it emerged he had dug up corpses of girls aged between three and 12.
He then took the bodies home and turned them into a grisly collection of mummies, dressing the bodies and skeletons in stockings and dresses and even making one look like a teddy bear.
This week a judge revealed that Moskvin was not mentally fit to stand trial and should remain in a psychiatric clinic.
According to Daily mail, Moskvin, who speaks 13 languages and was described in court as a 'genius', gave the mummified corpses names and organised birthday parties for them.
All of little girls had died years earlier.Police said Moskvin also compiled up-to-date information about the lives of each girl he had dug up and printed off instructions on a computer for how to produce dolls out of human remains.
His macabre obsession was discovered when his parents visited him after returning from holiday.
A prosecutor spokesman said: 'After three years of monitoring him in a psychiatric clinic it is absolutely clear that Moskvin is not mentally fit for trial.
'He will therefore be kept for psychiatric treatment at the clinic.
