In 1924, serial killer Fritz Haarman was caught and tried in Hanover, Germany. After a lengthy investigation, he was linked to over 20 murders in the area, all of which were young men. Haarman mostly preyed on the homeless and disenchanted youth. The majority of these victims were "found" by his friend, Hans Grans, a male prostitute. Prior to his execution, Haarman confessed to well over 40 murders, and did so with little remorse. Fritz Haarman killed men by biting into their jugular veins and drinking the blood, which sexually gratified him as well. Living as a black-marketeer in post-WWI Germany, he sold the belongings of his victims and often butchered their bodies which he sold as black-market meat. For all intents and purposes, Haarman had become a self-styled vampire whose obsession with consuming life was beyond understanding. The film Tenderness of the Wolves is a dramatic, fictional glimpse into the life of Haarman shortly before his capture.
