A family accused of being cannibals have admitted to killing and eating at least 30 people.
The gruesome killings are said to have taken place over 18 years as police are believed to have discovered eight body parts.
Officers are now checking for more human remains to determine if the confessions are genuine.
Dmitry Bakshaev, 35, from Krasnodar in southern Russia has allegedly told interrogators he began his macabre reign of terror in 1999.

As well as the shocking find of human body parts, police also found a "video lessons for cannibals" in their home, local news reports have claimed.
Mash initially identified the pictured woman as his cannibal wife but local sources in Krasnodar insisted she was a recent victim.

Another sickening picture has been discovered by officers and is believed to show a human head being served as dinner.
It has been decorated with oranges and dated December 29, 1999, which, if true, leads to the suspicion that the confession of an 18 year reign of terror as a cannibal is correct.
Another image shows alleged human remains pickled in a jar.
The pictures were found by state investigators among the possessions of the "husband and wife cannibals".
