History
Frederick Loren lived in Portland, Oregon during the 1940s. He had an odd sense of humor and a wife that was never seen by neighbors. In 1947, an anonymous tip came to the police stating that they had seen Frederick dragging what might be a body into his house. Since Frederick was well liked, the police didn't take it seriously until someone else went missing a few days later.

With incentive to investigate, the sheriff sent a deputy to check on Frederick, but he wasn't heard from again. Concerned, the sheriff sent another deputy, and he too was not seen again. The sheriff realized that something was going on and drove to Frederick's house with a shotgun. After knocking on the door, he heard Frederick say, "Come in!" Upon entry, he saw Frederick dressed in a white mask, coveralls, and a blowtorch in his hands. The deputies were strung from the ceiling and the sheriff realized that Frederick was burning their fat off into a pot. When Frederick saw the sheriff, he turned and said, "You should come back later, and I will be done."

Frederick was arrested and laughed the entire time he was taken into custody. After calling backup, the sheriff searched the house and found a trapdoor that lead to underground rooms, with each room containing a vat of fat and skin at the back, like a human pelt, pinned up like a trophy. While most of the fat in the vats had solidified, there were several empty ones as well.

As the police continued searching, they found a thin, small corpse without legs or arms next to an empty vat. A note beside the corpse, presumably written by Frederick, said 'Drink up, my dear, you're looking thin. Drink the whole thing.'
