![]() The Nepalese authorities had better keep a close eye on this psycho snake. Of course, the Serpent is always plotting and attempted an escape in 2004. Serial killer Charles Sobhraj, whose horrific crimes inspired real-life drama The Serpent, is trying to bag a Hollywood movie deal after leaving prison in Nepal, according to the Sunday Mirror. In 2003, he was arrested in Nepal for the murder of two North Americans, and today he’s safely behind bars. Safe from the Thai government, he planned to live a life of luxury with the millions he earned selling the movie and book rights to his story. Tried for escaping, his extra sentence meant he wasn’t released until 1997. The escape went according to plan and he was arrested two weeks later-also according to plan. Nicknamed “ The Serpent” for his crafty skills as an escape artist, Sobrhaj planned to drug his guards and break out of prison-after all, he’d done it four times before. If Sobhraj could stay in the Indian prison system just a little longer, he’d eventually be a free man. However, a quirky Thai law stated that if a suspect wasn’t tried within 20 years of the crime, he couldn’t be prosecuted. He was sentenced to 11 years, but the moment he stepped out of prison, the Thai government planned to extradite him to face the death penalty. However, the Indian government only had enough evidence to convict him on minor charges. His attack backfired, only giving everyone violent diarrhea, and Sobhraj was caught and arrested. Sobrhaj finally screwed up when he poisoned 60 French tourists staying at an Indian hotel. Thinking of himself as a superman, Sobhraj saw his crimes not as murders but as cleanings. Sometimes he strangled, sometimes he stabbed, and sometimes he burned them to death. ![]() When they were too weak to continue, he finished them off. Then he used pills or powders to make his victims sick. was to befriend western tourists hiking along the “Hippie Trail,” a path that wound its way through Asia. And thanks to his genius, he almost got away. He’s a big fan of Nietzsche, loves discussing “Beyond Good and Evil,” and between 19, this half-Vietnamese half-Indian “ubermensch” murdered over 20 people across India, Thailand, Nepal, Turkey, and Iran. Charles Sobhraj speaks several languages, studies psychology, and is an expert on gemology. ![]()
