Chilling photos show where ‘Germany’s Fred and Rose West lured young woman with lonely heart ads to torture and murder them before burning the bodies in a furnace’
The cruel couple are alleged to have abused at least five women and killed two
THESE chilling images reveal inside the squalid home where a couple dubbed Germany's Fred and Rose West are accused of luring young women so they could torture and murder them.
Wilfried W, 46, and ex-wife Angelika B, 47, allegedly killed two victims and tortured at least five others after the women answered a lonely hearts column.
Harrowing photos show the fridge where the dismembered remains of one of the victims were kept before the frozen body parts were burnt on a furnace in the living room.
Prosecutors claim the pair tricked the women into moving in with him by pretending to be brother and sister - before killing them for their savings.
The ad read: "Farmer is looking for a wife. I am kind, nice, gentle…."
But instead of meeting their dream man, at least two women were murdered by the pair, the court heard.

They allegedly dismembered one of their victims and had her body parts frozen before she was cremated on a log burner in the living room.
Their first victim, Anika W, 33, was chained to a radiator in a "cat room" where they kept pets, the court heard.
The victim was forbidden from using the bathroom and was robbed of her mobile phone, purse, driving license and bank card.
But Angelika, 47, claims she was one of Wilfried's victims - and that she obeyed him because she was terrified he would turn on her.
But it's claimed Angelika was a willing participant in the horror crimes.
She is said to have tried to drown Anika in the bath, but with a fractured skull she managed to make a getaway by crawling across the forecourt of the house.
She died of her horrific wounds a day later.
Their squalid lair in the Westphalian town of Höxter-Bosseborn, has been revealed for the first time as the pair face court.
The women did things that upset Wilfried and if they repeated their mistakes we set punishments and enforced them."
Angelika
Angelika told the trial that she was forced to remove the Anika's frozen body parts and burn them before throwing them from the car as the pair took a drive through the countryside.
Describing her death in August 2014, Angelika said: "I helped her up but when I took my supporting arm away she crashed backwards and hit her head hard on the asphalt.
"The next day I found her dead.
"The women did things that upset Wilfried and if they repeated their mistakes we set punishments and enforced them."
A chilling video was played in court showing Angelika mocking her terrified victim and threatening to kill her.
She is heard shouting: "You are too old for him to f*** you.
"If you emerge now as a bad egg, that is sad for you. Then we must dispose of that!"
Too stupid to stand, too goofy to count, too stupid to read, too stupid to cook, too stupid to get up - what more?
Angelika
In another sick video filmed moments after Anika had been sick, Angelika is heard yelling: "Look, you cannot even stand alone.
"You've got to get even larger shoes, then maybe you have more room when you're tilting over.
"Too stupid to stand, too goofy to count, too stupid to read, too stupid to cook, too stupid to get up - what more? You're walking around like a gorilla."
Wilfried is believed to have texted Anika's mum from her phone soon after her death saying she had moved to Amsterdam "but is in good health".
Their second victim was divorced Susanne F, 41, who led to their arrest in April.
On the brink of death, she was bundled into the couple's car to be taken back to her apartment.
It's alleged their car broke down on the way and the pair called an ambulance because they were "overwhelmed" by what had happened.
Police chief Ralf Östermann said: "She was abused for nothing. If the knife was not laid on the correct side of the plate, that was a trigger for punches, stomping, kicking, abuse.
"The pair called an ambulance apparently because they were overwhelmed by the situation."
They had racked up huge debts because they had taken out so many advert across numerous publications in Germany.
They also looked for victims with advertisements placed in Czech newspapers.
Wilfried has remained silent during the trial, but it has been revealed he was sentenced to two years in prison in August 1995 for inflicting life-threatening injuries on a woman.
Angelika was given probation.
The murder trial is expected to finish early in the new year.
Both Wilfried and Angelika are facing life sentences.
