Synopsis

The discovery of human remains clogging the drains of a London residence resulted in the arrest of thirty-seven-year-old civil servant Dennis Nilsen, and police were immediately struck by his composure as he calmly confessed to having killed at least fifteen young men. At the time, Nilsen would become known as Britain's most prolific serial killer, and during subsequent interviews, investigators uncovered a remarkable account of a man consumed by an obsession with death dating back to childhood.
