This place can be a rite of passage for men if you are to believe places like Hollywood. This place is a house of ill repute, also known as a cathouse, or in not so polite terms, a whorehouse, where women sell themselves to men, to be able to make a living. Of course, we all know the story of Pretty Woman…
A working class girl (Julia Roberts) finds herself paired with a millionaire (Richard Gere) with a heart of stone. She manages to fleece him for all his riches and he is left broke and disgusted. Wait that is what happens in real life, not the scripted, phony Hollywood ending of Pretty Woman. In the movie, she falls in love with him and he reciprocates the feelings of amorous behavior. They are off to live happily ever after, the End and the waste of 6 dollars that went with it.
Now, back to the topic at hand. The above picture is where Josef Fritzl would go when he grew tired of raping his daughter and making babies. He would go to the cathouse to look for new and exciting, exotic women to act out his twisted fantasies, all inspired by the Fuhrer himself.
“At the bar, he acted despotically. As soon as he found one of the girls attractive and ordered champagne, he said things like, ’sit straight!’ or ‘don’t talk such sh**!’.
“This is unusual at brothels – you go there to have a good time. And upstairs, in a room, he got completely out of the track.”
Asked what he meant by an Austrian newspaper reporter Flugel replied: “Perverse. I heard about that when talking to the girls. Two of them said, ‘never again with that guy!’. Such a thing is very rare in this business.
“It has to do with pain. Or with a game where a girl is asked to play a corpse.”
Prostitution is legal in Austria and the Villa Ostend charges customers about £70 per half hour.
Fritzl’s habit of driving forty miles to a nightclub illustrated his compulsive need to keep his secret world separate from his outward show of being a respectable professional.
Police have already revealed how he would drive miles to buy toiletries or sanitary items for his captive daughter Elisabeth and the children imprisoned with her so there would be no wagging tongues in his hometown.
Asking her to play dead? That is disgusting, but relatively tame in light of how sick this guy really is. But, here at Too Old, we are believers of the free enterprise system. We would never look down on the women that have to do whatever it takes to make the ends meet. The crazy thing is that prostitution is legal over there and they make about 130 dollars a half hour (conversion rate) I think that the women were not charging enough if they had to be with that animal. That is sad, and sick all at the same time. Having to drive 40 miles so not to be seen shows how much this dude was oversexed.
I guess if you are in the town, you might want to stop by and mention us for a 10 percent discount at the door…
In Austria the whores are illegal Hungarians, Czechs, or Pols. Everyone treats them like shit. And in the small towns there are stores, parks, even churches where they are not allowed. So I gotta call BULLS–T with the “this is unusual” or the “never again” comments. Who you kiddin? You’re a whore!
I prefer “Bordello” to “cathouse” or “whorehouse.” It just sounds more exotic…
