NIZHNY NOVGOROD, RUSSIA (BNO NEWS) — Police in the Russian city of Nizhny Novgorod have discovered the remains of more than two dozen women who were dug up from their graves by a man some described as a ‘genius.’
The bodies were found this week in the home of 45-year-old Anatoly Moskvina, who lives alone in the city of Nizhny Novgorod in western Russia. The shocking discovery was made when Moskvina’s parents visited him after returning from a vacation.
Russian media reported that Moskvina kept at least 26 bodies in his small, three-room apartment. They all belong to girls aged between 15 and 26 who died a long time ago as only their skeletons were left.
Life News reported that Moskvina, who is a historian and was also involved in journalism, visited hundreds of cemeteries at night and dug up the bodies with a shovel. He then put the remains in plastic bags and dragged them to his home.
Once the bodies were in his apartment, Moskvina dressed the bodies up as dolls. Photos released by Life News showed one skeleton wearing a dress, stockings and other clothing while another body appeared to have been dressed as a teddy bear.
Moskvina was said to have visited more than 750 cemeteries although it was not immediately clear when he started digging up bodies. On at least one occasion, Moskvina is believed to have slept in a coffin while on other nights he slept on benches at cemeteries.
Some residents described Moskvina as a genius as he speaks 13 languages and has great knowledge of history, which he used to lecture at a local museum. Police arrested Moskvina and later released him, but it was not immediately clear what charges he will face.

Why dont we Take time to read carefully before we post our comments. you doh read they say “They all belong to girls aged between 15 and 26 who died a long time ago as only their skeletons were left.”
it did not say if he sexually abused them, i think the guy is just lonely
man,there are some real sick people in this world.What on earth would make someone do that? Psychiatrist to the rescue!
I want to hear HUMANIST on this one
necrophilia….sexual attraction to corpses….please don’t discriminate…what about his human rights….i mean who is he hurting here?
I dont think you would like for your dead family members to be dug up
hey hey hey…why did i get the thumb down….is it because of the consent thing??..a solution could be arranged….i mean there are enough desperate people in the world who would do anything for money…………everybody deserves to be happy..he was born that way….
I guess you his doctor or parents to know he was born that way. This is not normal behavior
Tiny no offense, but I sense you are trying to be witty or satirical, but no one would normally want their loved ones to be dug up. It is just wrong on all levels. Whether he was ‘born that way’ he needs some serious help: i.e. arrest him, no bail, evaluate him and get him some psychiatric help. Genius is many times borderline madness.
Who knows when he could graduate to murder?? We do not want to read about him in 5 years when his fantasies focuses on the living.
he hurting the loved ones of the deceased,when people bury their loved ones,they have the rights to see that their passed on families rest in peace,this man disrespect the people them grave site,this man is sick.
what made u think it had any thing to do with sex? he is called genius for a reason.. y didnt u think of the possibility of “research” are u a perv?
I think he needs some pshyciatric help
