The narrative then shifts to the case of rapper Big Lurch, whose PCP use led to a horrifying act of cannibalism. Finally, the video recounts the tragic events caused by Dale Nelson's alcohol and LSD-induced rampage, resulting in multiple murders and acts of cannibalism.

Terrifying Mental Disorders | SS #9
This episode explores three intriguing psychological disorders: Capgras delusion, Alien hand syndrome, and Walking corpse syndrome. Capgras delusion involves a person believing loved ones are imposters due to brain trauma or mental conditions, leading to significant distrust and chaos in relationships. Alien hand syndrome causes a person's hand to act independently without their control, sometimes engaging in harmful or inappropriate actions. Walking corpse syndrome, also known as Cotard's delusion, makes individuals believe they are dead or decaying despite being alive, with varying levels of severity.
