Hello guys ,
The north London flat where serial killer Dennis Nilsen slaughtered rent boys and cooked their remains in the 1970s and 80s has gone on sale for £300,000.
Dennis Nilsen killed at least 15 men over a period of six years in London in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
Most of his victims were homosexual or homeless men who he would pick up in bars across London or on the street.
After inviting them to his home, Nilsen would ply his victims with food and alcohol before killing then. His preferred method was strangulation.
Once dead, he dismembered their bodies by dissecting them in his house. In his first address, Melrose Avenue, he buried their remains in the garden. In Cranley Gardens however he was forced to take other measures.
Once arrested he told police how he boiled the heads of his victims in a large cooking pot to dispose of their brains.
He would cut up the rest of their bodies and store them in plastic bin bags at the property. When the stench of their rotting corpses became stronger, he tried to flush their limbs down the toilet and drains.
This caused a large blockage in the pipes. Seemingly oblivious to risk, Nilsen audaciously complained to a waste company about the blockage and asked for it to be resolved because he and other residents were suffering as a result.
When a worker Dyno-Rod arrived at the property in 1983 to unblock them, he discovered what appeared to be flesh and fragments of bone when he opened a drain cover outside the property.
The following day, after inspecting another section of pipe, he and his supervisor discovered what they thought were bones of a human hand.
They alerted police who arrested Nilsen as he returned home from work. While in custody he admitted to killing at least 15 people.
Unlike his previous home, Cranley Gardens offered him no access to a garden. After murdering his victims and dismembering their bodies, he stuffed their limbs in bin bags and kept them in wardrobes in the flat until their stench became overbearing.
In a desperate bid to conceal his crimes the murderer then attempted to flush the remains down the toilet and drains, causing major pipe blockages in the building.
He phoned to complain about the blockage to a maintenance company, claiming the entire building was suffering difficulties.
When a repairman arrived he discovered the dissected limbs and remains and alerted police.
Nilsen later admitted to the killings during a sensational trial in which it was heard he had murdered 15 people in total and attempted to kill others.

Flat 23C in Cranley Gardens, Muswell
ill, was where Nilsen, a Job Centre clerk, murdered a handful of male escorts before cooking their body parts and eating them.
It is being sold now for £300,000 after undergoing drastic refurbishment since police were alerted to the property in 1983 when the remains of Nilsen's victims were discovered blocking drains at the property.
It is the second time in recent years the Muswell Hill flat is being sold. In 2013 it was listed as for sale for £265,000.
After failing to attract interest its price was reduced to £240,000.
On current its listing with Paul Simon estate agents, the property is described as 'within close proximity of Muswell Hill Broadway' and as having 'excellent transport links'.
This morning it was claimed the property had been reduced to £100,000 and purchased by a cash buyer.
A neighbour told The Sunday People: 'I'm sure it will make a nice home for someone, and a tidy bargain.'
Paul Simon Estate Agents did not respond to Mail Online's requests for comment today.
The flat has been completely overhauled since it was raided by police in 1983. They were alerted to the property after Nilsen complained to a building management company that the drains were blocked.
By the time he moved in to the property in 1981, Nilsen had already murdered at least 12 homosexual homeless men at a different address in London.
