Humans know no bounds when it comes to creativity. Unfortunately, this is also the case when it comes to slaughtering fellow human beings. This book, written by an ex-Youtuber who runs the channel of the same name as the book, aims to present the worst atrocities, murders, crimes, tortures, abuses and other torments inflicted throughout our history. With its cynical writing and minimalist but effective illustrations, Horror Humanum Est may not appeal to the most sensitive of souls, but it serves an important purpose. Far from aiming to sensationalize such tragedies, the author wishes to perpetuate the memory of these historical events, so that they are not forgotten and, above all, never repeated.
