Description

A humorous take on the worst people in history, The People You Meet in Hell is an almanac of the worst real-life villains to walk the Earth, from well-known bad guys like Ivan the Terrible, whose hobbies included impaling, beheading, and burning, to lesser known criminals like Dr. James H. Carlisle, who put an African war game into the hands of school bullies and called it dodgeball. But this is no ordinary history book - in this clever rearview, readers get to embrace and guffaw at the idea of customised hells for each baddie: Jeffrey Dahmer has to eat vegan for all eternity, Ivan the Terrible has to match all the heads he removed to their original bodies, and James H. Carlisle has to climb an eternal rope in gym shorts. With funny illustrations, star ratings from the devil himself (four stars for depravity!) and a tongue-in-cheek attitude, The People You Meet in Hell is a must-have read for the spooky season and a go-to holiday gift for true crime fans.
