‘The Penis Collector’ is Awaiting Criminal Charges in Croatia

Here's a horror story to keep you up all night with your hands firmly covering your manhood. The scariest part is that it's a true story.

A male nurse over in Croatia has a dark and creepy obsession. He likes to collect human penises, which is exactly how he got the nickname the 'Penis Collector.'

Now it's a little cloudy how this man was caught, but basically, police found a couple jars in his house with preserved genitalia in them, and arrested him for suspicion of possessing a collection of human body organs.

The man, being a nurse, had access to dead bodies all the time, which is where we assume he harvested the penises.

Even scarier is the fact that this guy was reportedly a family man with no criminal history, although others say he was a drunk. Basically, he was never the guy you thought would be cutting off penises and sticking them in jars.

Either way the hospital had no idea what he was up to, saying in a statement that "On behalf of all employees of the hospital, I have to say that we are very unpleasantly surprised by an event that threw a shadow over this hospital."

Sure this man may be half a world away right now, but he was released from police custody shortly after his arrest while he awaits criminal charges for disturbing the deceased, which could land him in jail for a maximum of two years.

That doesn't seem like enough time for cutting off someone's penis, whether they're dead or not.

Let's just hope this man doesn't try to flee Croatia anytime soon. The last thing you want to wake up to is some creepy nurse getting ready to rob you of your manhood.
