Dad Of The Year!
Filed under: Wacky, Tacky & True
The international press is abuzz about an Austrian woman (named Elisabeth F. by authorities) who was imprisoned AND raped by HER OWN FATHER (called Josef F.).
This went on for 24 years!!!!!
Wait. It gets more disturbing.
According to reports, the woman gave birth to seven children by her father.
Three of the children, now aged 5, 18 and 19, lived in the dungeon with Elisabeth and had never seen the light of day until the eldest was recently taken to the hospital because of a severe illness.
Police said Josef, an electrical engineering technician by training, had told investigators how to enter the basement dungeon through a small hidden door, operated by a secret code which only he had known.
WTF?????
According to Elisabeth, Josef had lured her into the basement of the block where the family lived in Amstetten, Austria, on August 24th, 1984, and allegedly drugged and handcuffed her before locking her up in the dungeon. A police spokesman said she was "psychologically extremely disturbed", but her version of events was "completely believable".
Elisabeth's disappearance in 1984 was treated as a teenage runaway case.
Elisabeth's mother, Rosemarie, who lived in the family home with her father, supposedly did not know their daughter was being held captive in the home dungeon and sustaining the alleged abuse.

BTW I came on to this site to get away from crap like this I have to deal with at work, please get back to reporting nonsense and leave the heavy stuff to others.
Re: sugah – ooooh, been down the blaming men road…but i made a U-eee and rethunked it, because women kill and batter and abuse too…..i wish it were that simple..we could all go lesbo and move them off to their own private island where they would prob kill each other …….humans are imperfect…remember?
If there is a hell, its sole purpose is to hold people like Hitler, and to hold people like this disgusting skidmark.
U SHOULD FUKING ROT IN HELL YOU MOTHER****** PEOPLE LIKE U MAKE ME SICK WHAT THE FUCK I HOPE THEY CASTERATE YOU AND PUT YOU IN JAIL FOR A LONG TIME AND FUCKING GET WHAT U DESERVE OR GET THE DEATH SENTENCE U SICKOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Thats one fucked up father!! wow cant believe i just read that. how did the mom not know her daughter was being help captive in her own home?
What a sick devil bastard
Soooo disturbing and sick - lock him up and throw away the key. He may look like the Grinch but at least the Grinch's heart grew three sizes.
I LOVE PEREZ —>
kay that is super fucked. i agree, cut off his dick and his balls, and feed it to him!
is it me or does he look like the grinch? that's sick tho
And the mother didn't know about it. Where'd she think the extra kids came from? Hah. They should lop off Daddy's cahones and serve 'em for brunch! Bastard.
It wasnt a home but a building so nothing says they lived just upstairs the poor woman
This sicko built a real jail with a protected secret door with a code and probably a kind of sound proof room (she gave birth 7 times) he started when she was 11 and I guess had the time to think of a plan before she would be a grown up and leave the house
In 24 years we all guess she must have spent years shouting all she could
They said she looks 20 years older , I dont even get how her children must have grown up and develop
Who can possibly believe in fate after that -A life of nightmares cant be written
Ashamed of my world
Re: mojo – I'm wondering what the holocaust should have to do with this. True, that man has destroyed the lives of his wife and children. However, this still doesn't make him a Nazi. Your use of the term and your generalizations about "Austrians" are ignorant.
I hope they RAPE him in prison
sonia you nailed it..ashamed of my world.. thats the right sentence to apply on this disturbing case..pigs like this make all men and women to look bad. creepy, he must be punished with all the weight of the law.
That shit is just fucked up! I cannot even imagine how that poor girl and her kids survivied being cooped up like animals in a dungeon hell. They should fry that fucker of a father….
Re: ridiculous – i agree with ur condemnation of his use of the word nazi……all americans aren't hateful racists and please accept our apologies to all offended…we have an ample supply of our own nutjobs too!

RE-Pugnant.
Wow that is crazy!!! So she was imprisoned knowing that Michael Jackson was black and now that's she's out, she's going to see Michael Jackson and be like woah!! I love michael jackson, i've been a fan since i was 2 so don't you people think i'm trying to make fun of him i'm just saying
Hitler is from Austria, too… just noticing…….
I'M SPEECHLESS!!!!!!!!!THIS IS SICK BEYOND WORDS!!!!!!!!!!!THE AUSTRIAN AUTHORITIES SHOULD ALLOW HER TO KILL HER FATHER IN A VERY SLOW AND PAINFUL MANNER!!!!I CANNOT BELEIVE THE MOTHER DIDN'T KNOW
SOMETHING, MAYBE SOME CLUE FROM THE GRANDCHILDREN LEFT ON HER DOORSTEP. THIS STORY IS GOING TO GIVE ME NIGHTMARES!!!
I vomit in my mouth every time I look at his disgusting face
Can you say, "Flowers In The Attic?"
His name is Joseph Fritzl. Its the been top story on BBC news for a couple days
I HOPE THEY SLOWLY AND PAINFULLY TORTURE THE LIVING SHIT OUT OF THIS FUCK. THERE IS A SPECIAL SPOT IN HELL FOR HIM.
HAVE U NOTICED THAT IT'S ONLY MEN THAT DO THIS KIND OF SHIT??!!
THE WORLD WOULD BE A BETTER PLACE WITHOUT MEN!!!
OMG, I couldnt believe when I read the story on your site. I live in the US for a couple of years now but I was born and grew up in Austria - only 30 min away from the place where it happened. And I didnt find out about it until i read your blogentry. holy shit, how absolutely disgusting!
WTF is in the water in Austria?
i find it very hard to believe that his wife could not have known about this. didn't these people ever scream for help? wtf!! anyways i hope the man is murdered in prison!! those poor people will NEVER be okay after this.
woah. wtf, perez. i come here for lighthearted hollywood gossip, not disgusting true stories about real sick fucks.
that's fucked up.
just wondering… what if he died unexpectedly prior to this situation blowing up in his face???? they would have died down there. how selfish can one man be? to deprive a whole family to satisfy selfish and sadistic needs and at the end of it all to claim there was sex but consensual sex. he needs to be placed in a cell where he can experience his type of consensual sex everyday.
he looks a little bit like the grinch.
I don't believe for a second the mother had no idea what was going on. How could she not notice the walls built down in the basement? And it's highly doubtful she didn't notice the births of SEVEN children, soundproofing or not.
Re: i agree – You just made me feel so much better! I shouldn't have let Mojo's remark get to me like I did. It's just, I feel sad when all my country seems to be famous for is its disastrous political past. Thank you for reminding me that not everybody thinks like that.
Let's be realistic, the torture this man bestowed upon his child and children/grandchildren-? will never be reciprocated. This is not a human, he is evil in pure form. Describing this as a crime seems not enough, what could you do to this creature that would ever make him suffer or realize what he has done? The whole story from beginning to its end?-is worse than any horror movie created. Whats most sad about this story? He will never, ever…. receive the punishment-torture-disgrace-shame-, he deserves….there are no words that can vividly describe how awful this is.
this is probably one of the most disturbing things I have ever and you file this under "wacky, tacky and true" !?!
its distusting that you find something like this merely intertaining calling the story "too crazy"
i saw it on the news and they gave a tour of the dungeon
it was horrible!
i almost cried
he totally looks like the grinch! i hope he dies a slow painful death!
sick fuck!
This man is disgusting. There is NO WAY this could have gone on for 24 YEARS without the wife knowing, unless she's completely dense or mentally retarded.
Okay this is the creepiest, craziest, most INSANE story I`ve ever heard before. Seriously! I`ve been following the story since it broke in the news… it`s hard to believe & grasp everything at once… it`s just so crazy you would never imagine anything like this… I saw several photos of the inside of the house on the news… creepy or what hey?!? This is so fucking INSANE this story… the father (joseph f.) must`ve had to planned everything out so carefully… and I mean, the door and the whole secret code thing?!? DANG! definitely a lot of thought put into this. Imagine how this left a mental impact of his daughter & their children (WAIT WTF SO WRONG!) Idk, it`s a really confusing and scary thing! People… some people. It literally disgusts me.
Absolutely shocking what somebody can do to other human beings, especially his own flesh and blood! What could possibly be an appropriate punishment for this sick and twisted weirdo?
This is like looking at the devil himself…may he ROT IN HELL
There is no limit to the scale of fucked-up-ness.
He willingly ruined the lives of his wife, his daughter and all the children he fathered with her, just to have his personal sex slave availlable whenever he felt an itch.
I also find it hard to believe that the mother didn't know anything. Apparently, he was very despotic and had forbidden her and the kids she raised to ever enter the cellar. I mean, come on, the moment the dude leaves the house, I so would've gone down there. But then again, who knows how intimidated they all were.. And even if she believed him about their daughter running away when she was 18, he started abusing the daughter at age 11, when they were all still living together. Seven years in which the mother didn't catch on? Doubtful.
weird!
never planned to fight back? they were all in the cellar ewy.
OMG he looks like the Grinch!
THE PEOPLE UNDER THE STAIRS!!!!!!!
BY FAR THE MOST DISTURBING STORY I HAVE EVER HEARD!!!! this will stick with me forever… can you imagin being those kids?? living for yrs in the same room?
I hope he burns in hell.
It took you long enough, Perez. I emailed this to you this morning. Anyway, this story is so sad. I hope they castrate him.
the MOST disturbing and sickening thing EVER. why does CNN have to report on shit like this?
How could his neighbors not suspect anything? That's a German for you, they claimed not to know about the Jews being burned either. Straight men are filthy some time, a Gay man would never do such a thing.
REEEAL SCUMBAG! should be hung by his balls and left to die!
When he was giving it to her he was probably like, "Who's your daddy?" LOL
I believe in the death penalty for cases like this. There is no doubt that he is guilty. Just get it over with.
creepy vincent price lookin mugg.
MOTHERFUCKER!
Re: been there –
Blah shut up men are worse than women.They are disgusting they kill,rape…Women aren't as evil as men.Men always have dirty thoughts..
people are crazy !!!! doing this too his daughter !!!! FOR THE SEX !!!!!
Re: Dude – NOT FUNNY.
He's not a man he is a monster. But the psychologist is right, we should study his brain before he meets his end and I would challenge the "doctors and scientists" to instead of spending time and money to research identifying each and every DSM syndrome but instead to focus on finding that thing specifically answers why a man would molest a child in his family or social circle. Maybe we can prevent this from happening to any other human being from now on. Only then will the world actually be a better place, in my opinion.
i have no words for this article, i am deeply disturbed by this man. I wish god existed so that this motherfucker could burn in hell forever. Death is too lenient for this sick fuck. he needs to be put in a small box for the rest of his life and tortured 24 hours a day. i hope he dies a slow extremely painful death>. i feel so sorry for that poor women and those innocent children. I hope the austraian goverment gives them much needed support for the rest of their lives.
i wish them the best of luck and hope they can over come this.
that women is so strong for putting up with his sick shit.
i hope she leads the happiest life she can from now on.
i wish her the best
OMG I'm in Europe and i've been following this case all day as its been breaking. I feel like crying just writing this. These poor kids have never seen daylight, the oldest two Kerstin and Stefan have never been able to stand at their full height because the rooms are so small. According to the police, many of whom have been openly crying, the littlest one Felix (5) was really happy and excited about his first ever trip in a car when they liberated him. If it wasn't for their brave mother Elisabeth putting a secret note in Kerstin's clothes when she was taken to the hospital they could all still be underground right now. I don't believe in God or hell but I wish there was a hell where Josef would burn for all eternity!
TO EVERYONE READING THIS: DO NOT BELIEVE FOR 12 MINUTE THAT COMMENT #100 "DRHEALTH" IS A DOCTOR SOUNDING SO INTELLIGENT! BULLSHIT! THIS SOUNDS TO ME VERY MUCH LIKE AN ABUSER HIMSELF! ONE OF THOSE THAT SPENDS TIME IN PRISON, GOING TO THE "LIBRARY" READING AND FINSDING EXCUSES FOR HIS SICK CRIMES. I WOULD BET EVERY PENNY I DON'T HAVE THAT THIS IS A SICK BASTARD HIMSELF!
Re: Sometimes I hate Straight Men –
You do know there's a difference between Germany and Austria, do you?
If not even his next door neighbor's knew, how was his neighbor country to know? *rolleyes*
It will take a long time for all the details of this case to be revealed, and all we are making our judgements on is a short newspaper article. How a man can abuse his own daughter and grandchildren in such horrible circumstances is beyond belief. They will all be so damaged. However, I agree that it is strange that the mother did not suspect something over all those years. How could he have gone about what he did for so long without causing some suspicion? I guess it will all come out in the courts eventually. Until then, it is all speculation.
HE NEEDS TO BE PUT IN PRISON FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE AND BE RAPED AND ABUSED ON A REGULAR BASIS UNTIL THE DAY HE DIES. AN EYE FOR AN EYE.
Pray for his family….i hope that creeper rots in jail
WOW
This kind of stuff really makes me feel like killing this type of people.
He deserves to be TORTURED every day till he dies!!!
Poor woman and kids, this is so sad.
Re: Linda9801 –
could it actually be that it made you uncomfortable because you recognize yourself a bit……… hmmmm? so you are getting angry because it is hitting to the truth in your own little world right? BUSTED
UGH! This is so SAD and DISTURBING!!!! I hope he rottens in jail!!!
IF HE WERE GREEN HE WOULD LOOKS JUST LIKE THE GRINCH FROM DR SUESS
Yeah right the mom didn't know
HOW, PRAY TELL, IS THIS 'CELEBRITY NEWS OR GOSSIP'?
SCRAPING THE BOTTOM OF THE BARREL PEREZ?
This is seriously sick. He is sooooooooooo in need of a raping himself. I aay send him to jail and let the prision gangs take care of him. What a sick ass hole.
I hope somebody kicks his sick ass all over the place. Fucking heartless bastard. Sick piece of shit. Evil prick. Psycho bastard. Fuck you!!!! Die!!!
I finally got it. The first time I saw the picture he seemed so familiar to me, but i couldn't quite put my finger on it…. he is the f-in Grinch, the eyebrows the hair…
Hey, you sick mother fu****. Come on over to my house. I'm just dying to try out my big .357 I got myself for Christmas. I got it to protect myself from sick assholes such as you. Too bad your beaten down daughter didn't blow a hole in your sorry ass.
Cut his dick off…..then lock HIM in a hole and never let him out. Let him shrivel up and die slowly. This man does NOT even deserve a trial….
Even more disturbing about this story was where he burnt that child.
In the buildings incinerator. When I found out about that a chill went down my spine.
#173 you sick fuck! you just changed your name. you're busted. asshole. i'm a mother of 12. sick motherfucker. try something new. # 100…Like a real dr. would argue at perezhilton.com's comment board. dumb fuck!
I meant mother of 2…
i dont get how no one could have known anything….. plus if he had died - hes old enough to!! - what would happen to the people hed imprisoned. someone must have known what was going on!
"Elisabeth's mother, Rosemarie, who lived in the family home with her father, supposedly did not know their daughter was being held captive in the home dungeon and sustaining the alleged abuse".
——————————————-
Yeah right. And I have a date with Brad Pitt on Friday. Stupid hag needs to get locked up with her insane husband. What kind of a fucked up whore allows her sleazy, sick husband to rape her daughter?. Sick, sick, sick.
fucked up peice of shit. man, pour kids.
You all are sick. This fucker deserves to be hung by his balls.! ! He is a sick …old…peice of shit!!! ??? Can we shoot him in the head?.
I hope Austrian prisons are God AWFUL!
What the HELL is wrong with the world??
you treat the "slutty celebrities" with more contempt than this guy.
this is someone who deserves every harsh word out there, and instead you waste all your hatred on gwenth paltrow for covering her face from the photographers and mylie[?] cyrus for posing nude.
FIND OUT WHO THE READ ENEMIES ARE!
gonna get butt raped in prison…
its hard to comprehend how this man could do that to his own child- but its even harder to understand how his wife, for 24 yrs, did not go into her own basement, or see him bring food for 4 people down there, or soo many other things that must have been going on right under her nose- its a tragedy.
(and I am not blaming her by any means btw)
how did his wife not hear EIGHT people in her basement…or her giving BIRTH to 7 children..wouldn't there be some screaming? Wouldn't she wonder why her husband always bought SO much food?? Like this makes no sense..how could the wife not be in on it…
Re: Lici – totally agree with you
Re: Jen – Nope, unfortunately they're not…he will have a good life there…but what about his "kids"?
Re: Sometimes I hate Straight Men –
what has this to do with germans? READ first!
hey this shit happens everywhere in the world not only in austria, so shut up
nr 52! I bet you don't even know where to find austria exactly on a map.
it'sick but yeah I guess this is how some humans act
and btw…there is no way they'll shoot him or something…
in our culture we don't wanna play god
doesn't mean that he wouldn't deserve it…but I think the best punishment would be to live also in jail and get raped every day
killing would be to nice…you have to kill him slow like he did it with his daugther
This story does not belong on this website.
Isn't this website a "celebrity gossip, and juicy celebrity rumors, Hollywood gossip blog? What in that story has anything to do with celebrity?
That is an unspeakable true story with many severely damaged innocent victims involved. Have some RESPECT for them.
It is bullshit that the mother didn't know, How could she not. They should arrest her ass to.
