FRED & ROSE WEST: The Couple Who KilledSome of Britain's most horrific crimes took place in a seemingly normal home. Fred and Rosemary West lived with their nine children at 25 Cromwell Street, inGloucester, England. The large family was tight knit and was fairly well-liked in the community, but the West household was far from a normal, wholesome home.Fred and Rose used their house as equal parts brothel and torture dungeon. They put their children, lodgers, and strangers through horrific abuse, torture, and even murder. They did unspeakable things behind closed doors that would eventually give their house the nickname The Gloucester House of Horrors.
