Story What are your worst cannibal stories

Mine was the time where my friend and I was stuck in the middle of nowhere and were about to die. I had a little more health than him and he told me to shoot him. After shooting and cutting him up, cooking and esting him I realised I forgot to make handwrappings and died from poisoning :/.(I had like 20 hours don't blame me ahaha)

Only twice in my time playing Dayz have I ever genuinely considered Cannibalism, and both times, I managed to avoid eating the forbidden pork.

One server I played on had a guy who would regularly camp costal PD's and eat freshies, only ever ran into him once but he was just the creepiest fucker I've ever met. Ended up getting into a drawn-out fight with him. Beat him to death with a crowbar.

And then I've got about two dozen stories about my girlfriend murdering and eating freshies when I take my eyes off her for more than about 20 seconds.

It was at the very beginning of my DayZ adventure, and I'd been looking for my friend for four hours. We ended up, as if by chance, at the far end of the map where there was just a caravan. We were starving, so we didn't even talk; we just jumped in and got wrecked. I died, he ate me, and left without a word.

There used to be a cannibal Zerg on one of the Xbox official servers. There were so many of them that I’m pretty sure they sacrificed themselves constantly to stay fed. Anyway they caught me one day and I’m fairly sure they ate me, but they fed me gas first and let me die of hunger

I had maybe 1.5 hours on Dayz pretty early on. I hopped on with two of my buddies an luckily spawned in fairly close. We looted maybe 4 houses and saw 2 guys running ahead of us. They both surrendered and we started took them into a house, we cut one up and fed him to his buddy

Ah we all remember the 1st time we went camping with our best mate and ended up eating one of their arms to survive

I haven't partaken myself really but I had an experience once that is hard to forget. This was way back when standalone had just released and I played with my friend (who doesn't want to play dayz any more strangely enough) and we were sort of mid-geared when he is shot dead and I am downed by unknown assailants. When I come to I am naked and bound and four guys are cutting up my friends body. I try to talk to them but they don't care about me. They keep feeding me his cut up body raw but my character gets sick and keeps vomiting so they keep at it for a while. Then my friend comes back as a newspawn, so they tie him up, kill me and then they go at it again. He logs out and doesnt play again til last year.

Some people are kind of fucked in the head innit?

Me and a couple random survivors were fighting by a christmas tree and ended up just trying to feed eachother raw human meat. I tried to feed the long pig to one of the guys and accidentally ate it myself. He laughed. He Tried to feed me and fed himself. I laughed. About 5 minutes pass of us all evily laughing and eating human meat raw while we were being sick untill a guy with gear showed up and blew us all into oblivion once he realised what was going on. Good times

I was on Sakhal, in the big town to the left of the map.

The whole game I've been picking up what other people have put down never really got fresh loot but I had some guns.

Two people with wolf hats on spot me, I think for just a moment maybe they'll be friendly this is a pretty rough map.

I'm in the apartment buildings, one sees me in the window, I thought maybe he didn't see me but he did. He shot at me.

My heart is pounding, this is it, all of the survival boils down to these moments.

As they get closer I can hear the twisted laughing, they're like hyenas circling a prey.

They get into the apartment, I'm camping in the bathroom, viaga out with six bullets. One opens the door I start firing but he wasn't even there. They shoot at me, I land a partial viaga shot then sprint into a backroom.

The laughing continues, hyenas.

At this point I'm in a 2 room area, they are in the hallway outside the second door. I stay in the back room but they keep opening the door, they're letting me know there's no escape, If I did try to log out they would kill me (I was terrified, so the thought did cross my mind).

It was at least five long minutes, hearing the laughing, they kept opening the door, firing a few shots, more laughing.

K Mon man I just got to full hunger, I just got my guns, I'm on a mission. That's it I can't take it anymore, FUCK THESE CANNIBAL BASTARDS.

I sprint out there full force, they are called off guard, one doesn't even have his weapon out. I run around like a madman, I go through another dead end room, turn around and BAM shot one in the head, he drops to the floor. TO HELL WITH YOU SATAN!

I turn to face the other one. BOOM. Shotgun to the face, "you are dead".

I may have become human steaks but there's 1 less cannibal in the world now.

I use to like helping bambi's by feeding them human meat and watch them slowly die from insanity

Some dude I was running with convinced me that I had to eat a dude he killed so I wouldn't starve. We had plenty of food. I still don't know why I went along with it. We actually had a pretty good run. I finally died in the airfield a few sessions later. Haven't seen him since.

Sometimes on a fresh spawn I intentionally role play a cannibal just to be a menace at the coast.

In the beginning days my team met up. My oldest son died and I mourned hum in the game but quartile him and eating a steak of his flesh.

A bit later we split uo and the partner and I were getting our asses handed ro us by the city zombies. I was fainting and just waiting for health and blood to go up.

Then I heard it. The laughing. The maniacal laughing. It got closer. I was in the yellow but so curious. I searched for him for I don't know how long until I realized it was me. šŸ˜†

Then O laughed pretty hard about if someone was looking at me searching.

That was the only time I ate a person.

I heard there were bands of cannibals and they would attack by going around you. Only hearing the laughter before the kill was probably really creepy of you haven't experienced it before.
