Cannibal Family Who Killed Over 1,000 People For 25 Years
The story of the Sawney Bean family
By the 16th century, terrible events had taken place in Scottish territory. The increasing intensity of reports of mysteriously missing people from day to day brings terror to society.
This was followed by discovering dozens and even hundreds of pieces of human bodies strewn across the coast. So it adds to the horror of the situation that lives there.
Until one day, a terrible event finally leads to a mysterious figure named Alexander Sawney Bean and his descendants.
Sawney Bean and Agnes Douglas
Alexander Sawney Bean was born to a farmer family. The man was born in East Lothian, Scotland, 10 miles from Edinburgh. As a farmer, his father wanted him to continue his heritage by becoming a farmer.
But Sawney was known to dislike work that requires massive physical strength. He prefers to be a trader rather than a farmer like his father. After Sawney grew up, he was later reunited with a woman named Agnes Douglas.
