What Happened to Marius Gustavson, the Notorious Eunuch Maker

London: So, there’s this wild story about Marius Gustavson, who became infamous for performing castrations on volunteers and streaming it online. He called himself “The Eunuch Maker” and even made a pretty penny from it—around $360,000!

His story is now the focus of a true crime documentary on Crime+Investigation UK. It’s part of a wave of true crime shows that have been getting a lot of buzz lately.

Gustavson, a 47-year-old Norwegian living in London, had his own castration done back in 2017. After that, he started posting on body modification forums, looking for volunteers to do the same. He livestreamed these procedures from various locations, charging viewers a subscription fee.

Things took a turn when he was arrested in 2021 after the police launched an investigation into his activities. Fast forward to May 2024, and he was sentenced to life in prison, with a chance for parole after 22 years.

During the trial, it came out that he had some pretty disturbing habits, including cannibalism. His lawyer mentioned that he struggled with body integrity dysphoria, which made him feel like parts of his body didn’t belong to him. It’s a bizarre and tragic story that’s left many people shocked.
