Leonardo's squatter house, the 26-year-old man arrested for killing and dismembering a young woman in Valdemoro last week, was a sordid horror museum . Catanas, axes, knives, masks of the devil, dismembered mannequins , laser guns, masks of Hannibal Lecter, death-head butterflies ... A sinister collection that evidenced his fascination with violence and the monstrous and macabre character of the man of Colombian nationality who After murdering the teenager, she decided to tear her body apart. Moreover, he called himself on social networks as "the tattoo butcher."

According to the first statement made by the murderer, she killed the young woman when she laughed at her Colombian accent. He confessed that he suffocated her and then called his ex-girlfriend and asked for help to get rid of the body.

Together they went to buy bleach and other materials to clean the remains of the blood. The former couple collaborated with him under threats, she said. But then he repented. He took some pictures and went to the Civil Guard to betray him. When the agents went to the house they found the man entering the chalet on the street of France in Valdemoro. He was pushing a cart with blood stains and bags.

Upon entering the house, the agents' hearts began to beat very quickly between chills. There were mortal remains throughout the house. A bloody ax on the ground. Walls full of catanas of different sizes with Japanese flags. A showcase full of terrifying dolls and another with skulls of different scales, some of real size. There were also pictures of the films Ring and Pulp Fiction , as TVE's Morning unveiled yesterday.

On another wall hung the skull of a male goat with large horns and at its side elements designed to prepare an altar of witchcraft. Below were laser guns. They were also shocked to see the symbolism that ran through the house around the film The Silence of the Lambs . In addition to the masks of Hannibal Lecter there were several death butterflies, also known as the skull sphinx butterfly or death sphinx, a nocturnal insect that the film's serial killer leaves in the mouths of his victims as an identity seal.

The woman's mannequins also overwhelmed the agents. Some were beheaded or without arms. Others were covered with the mask of the protagonist of the movie Halloween . In the same room he had the stretcher where he made the tattoos with which he made a living. There were also several latex masks of the devilish clown and a collection of little dolls from famous horror movies: The Devil's Seed , Hell Possession , Scream or The Shining. Real size also had Freddy Krueger's glove of Nightmare on Elm Street.

In fact, in his social networks recently the detainee published a photo of him disguised as the protagonist girl of the movie The Exorcist . When he shared that image, some of his friends said "you're crazy" on his facebook.

Another room in the chalet was reserved for his neo-Nazi passion and skin . Swastikas hung over the walls next to baseball bats and ultra-right symbology.

The detainee, who refused to testify before the judge, was charged the night of his arrest. That morning he was present at the house for several hours while the agents carried out the inspection and the eye inspection.

During this time he was only worried about the future of his dog, an American Stanford. " Don't get killed please, " he pleaded with the agents.

Then it was also discovered that he suffered from a picture of schizophrenia for which he was not medicated and that he had numerous arrests for drug trafficking and sexist violence. Last August he was arrested for hitting his girlfriend , the woman he called on the day of the crime for help and then betrayed him. Despite this, the judge sent her to prison for cover-up.
