L'amour dans la mort, le cas de nécrophilie du Dr Tänzler Dr Tänzler Le Comte Carl Tänzler von Cosel, comme il aimait se faire appeler (Carl Tänzler), naquit le 8 février 1877 à Dresde, en Allemagne.

Personnage étrange, il prétendait avoir eu à plusieurs reprises des visions de son ancêtre, la Comtesse Anna Constantia von Cosel, qui lui prédit entre-autre, qu'une beauté exotique au cheveux noirs serait la femme de sa vie.
