Winner, 2012 True Crime ´´Book of the Year´´ by ForeWord Reviews To his neighbors, Anthony Sowell was a friendly and helpful former Marine. But they didn´t know about his dark side - or the gruesome secret inside his house. Sowell´s secret life was revealed to the nation on October 29, 2009, when a Cleveland Police SWAT team entered his house to arrest him for an alleged rape. They didn´t find Sowell, but they encountered a nightmarish scene: two decomposed bodies in his third-floor living room. Eight more bodies were hidden throughout the house and buried in the back yard. In the basement, they discovered a human skull. All of the bodies were female and all appeared to have been bound and strangled. Two days later, police captured Sowell, a sexual sadist who had served a 15-year prison sentence for kidnapping, raping, and torturing a 21-year-old pregnant woman. House of Horrors exposes the shocking details of Sowell´s depraved crimes and twisted psyche. He preyed on neighborhood women, luring them to his home with alcohol and drugs. Sowell then murdered the women and lived among their corpses. After a dramatic trial in the summer of 2011, Sowell was convicted and sentenced to death. In House of Horrors, listeners are given a rare glimpse inside the mind of a serial killer - through interviews with Sowell´s neighbors and relatives, his surviving victims, and exclusive interviews with Sowell himself.
