Lithuanian Firm Offers Hannibal Encounter
If you want to meet Hannibal ``The Cannibal'' Lecter, a Lithuanian tour firm can help. In `Hannibal Rising’ , the newly-released film based on the novel by Thomas Harris, the childhood of the fictional man-eating serial killer is set in the Baltic state. In the film, a prequel to `Silence of the Lambs’, Lecter is born into a noble Lithuanian family. He sees his sister killed and eaten by militiamen during World War II, a trauma that later turns him to murder and cannibalism. Aurimus Jukna, director of the tour company Saules Kelias, says $130 will get you a trip around the capital, Vilnius, as well as a ``Hannibal feast'' and a meeting with ``Lecter''.
