An elderly woman who was being called “The Granny Ripper” confessed to at least ten murders over the span of two decades in a diary. The diary also says she dismembered them and spread the body parts all throughout the city.

Suspected serial killer Tamara Samsonova, 68, beheaded and dismembered her targets in Russia’s second city, St Petersburg, it is believed.

The former hotel worker entered details of her macabre secret life in diaries which she kept in Russian, English and German, alongside black magic and astrological books.

She was detained this week after CCTV footage showed her carrying body parts of an elderly woman in a black plastic bag.

Watch the video below. It’s…not something you see every day.
