A likely candidate for a Most Gruesome Set Design award, this is a grisly must-have for schlock horror movies that employ the I'm a Humanitarian trope, and appears from time to time in the harsher To Serve Man stories as well. The Cannibal Larder is, quite simply, where man-eaters keep their food. Typically it'll feature bloody butchers' tools, red spatters on the walls, buzzing flies on the soundtrack, and possibly a Peek-a-Boo Corpse of someone known to the hapless victim who stumbles into the place. Often, the mangled remains on display will be so decomposed that someone would have to be a soulless psychopath with no vomit reflex to eat so much as a peanut-butter sandwich in the same room with them, never mind eat them. On the flip-side, and possibly even more disturbingly, the meat will still be fresh... because the victims there are still alive, with the cannibals hacking parts off them right before eating. The finding of a Cannibal Larder is usually staged as The Reveal, although it frequently only confirms what the audience already suspected was going on. Bonus points for this trope if the discoverer actually trips and falls onto/into the mounds of body parts. To qualify as a Cannibal Larder: It must be played for visceral, gross-out horror. A spic-and-span futuristic Soylent Green factory where bodies disappear into a machine at one end and squares of finished product come out the other wouldn't qualify. The body parts are being stored for purposes of consumption, or are the accumulated residue of previous butchering for food. A room full of transplant organs wouldn't qualify. Neither would a carcass that's just left lying around at a kill site. The body parts must either be from people (human or otherwise sapient), or from the part-collector's own species, or both. If it's aliens or monsters eating people, expect this trope to overlap with All Webbed Up or People Jars. See also Torture Cellar for similar Fridge Logic. |

Tokyo Ghoul is about humanoid beings that eat humans, so this trope crops up from time to time. A prequel side story focuses on Rize. Early on, her land lady approaches her to discuss a complaint about a smell coming from her apartment, which Rize claims is from trash she allowed to accumulate. Later on, we see that it's actually because she's got a bath tub filled with blood and body parts. Kaneki finds himself being forced to work in one during his time as a captive of Aogiri, given the task of dismantling human corpses for later consumption by the organization's forces. It's just as gruesome and disgusting as one would expect. In the sequel, the Ghoul Serial Killer Torso has an apartment filled with the decapitated and limbless bodies of his victims. The Investigators going through the mess describe it as the worst case they've ever seen, horrifying even by the standards of most Ghouls. |

In Seven Days a Skeptic, once the protagonist gains access to Taylor's room, he discovers that it's an abattoir filled with the mutilated parts of the other crewmembers. Not a straight example of this trope, as the other crewmembers haven't been butchered to be eaten: instead, Taylor is using them to construct a new body for John DeFoe. | |

Two player characters in an episode of Puffin Forest mistakenly think that they have found a cannibal larder when they enter a kitchen in a bad guy's fortress with pieces of dead bodies stuffed everywhere. Actually what had happened was that two other players characters had hidden in the kitchen and killed all of the guards that entered and then did their best to hide the bodies. | |

The garden shed behind the Wilsons' house is their larder, with a fridge containing lots of "strange meat," and multiple skeletons from their prior victims.

In Dead by Daylight, the Hag's backstory had her be abducted by cannibals, who would keep living victims chained up in their basement so they could have fresh meat on demand. While she managed to escape her shackles, her starved, mutilated state prevented her from getting to safety, so she instead used the last of her strength to carve a symbol of revenge that would allow her to come back from the dead to haunt her killers, before she was recruited by the Entity. | |

The Rats in the Walls has this trope in a much larger version than normal. The Reveal at the end of the story is of an underground city beneath Exham Priory which not only served as a Cannibal Larder, kitchens and disposal grounds for the degenerate, cannibalistic De La Poer family, but also contained breeding pens where the family had raised generations of human "cattle", some so inbred that they had regressed to walking on all fours as shown by the bones remaining in the ruins. | |

In The Walking Dead (2010), as Rick, Daryl, Glenn, and Bob escape being butchered in Terminus (amidst an increasingly unsubtle string of hints that the people of Terminus were cannibals), they pass through a room with several bloody human torsos hanging from hooks. | |

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street has the bakehouse under Mrs. Lovett's pie shop. Whenever Todd kills a customer in his barbershop above Lovett's establishment, he dumps the body down a chute to the basement, where Lovett bakes the meat into her pastries. Her waiter discovers The Secret of Long Pork Pies when she rather foolishly sends him down there and locks him in to get him out of the way for Todd's next murder. Just as the waiter finds a fingernail and hair in the pie he's been eating, the victim's body comes tumbling down the chute … | |

Subverted in Screamers: The Hunting. The rescue team is skeptical when told the more advanced Killer Robots can take human form. The survivors are a bit vague as to where they get food to survive, so when the team find a bloody dissection table and several people imprisoned behind Some Kind Of Forcefield, they naturally assume they're being used as food. Once freed however, the 'victims' quickly sprout cybernetic killing blades and attack their rescuers. The irony is the Screamers probably were being used as food and spare parts. | |

Mrs. Lovett's evil basement in Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street is where she turns the corpses that Sweeney produces into pies for her customers. Poor Toby winds up locked in there near the end and soon discovers what the pies are being made of when he sees the fingernail in one of the pies he's eating, and then sees the Beadle getting dropped down the chute and into the room. | |

The very last episode of Lost Tapes has such a scene, set deep underneath New York in one of the city's many uncharted subterranean tunnels, featuring numerous missing persons wrapped up in plastic after having been asphyxiated. More of a To Serve Man example than literal cannibalism, since the culprits aren't actually human. | |

Saya no Uta: Towards a later part of the story, Kouji suspects something weird is going on with Fuminori, and sneaks into his home. He finds his fridge stuffed with human body parts and organs prepared to eat, and realizes he's too far gone to save. Fuminori however doesn't perceive his actions as cannibalism, since he has a condition that makes him hallucinate humans as horrifying Eldritch Abominations, and sees an Eldritch Abomination as the only human in the world, who brought him the food. He thought he was eating some sort of tasty, albeit slimy gruel. | |

Associated with ogres in most settings. Taken to its logical extreme with Warhammer's ogre "butchers" who are both the tribal cooks and shamans, and often carry a stock of body parts (of various edibility) with them as snacks and spell components. One butcher special character drags along an enormous cauldron, which radiates an increasingly powerful buff as it is filled with enemy bodies. | |

In Ravenous (1999), a ragged group of "soldiers" from a ramshackle 1840s fort investigate the story of a man who wandered up to their fort from the mountains, claiming he was part of a group of pioneers who became stranded in the mountains due to winter weather and had to eventually resort to eating other pioneers who died. When the man fled the cave where they'd taken refuge, only two other survivors were left, one of whom was their treacherous guide who had seemed to embrace cannibalism and may have murdered other members of the group to cook them and save his own life. The two soldiers who venture into the cave find a grisly scene as the cave has been turned into a larder, complete with human skeletons completely stripped of meat. Then the soldiers in the cave realize to their horror that there's one too many skeletons in the cave. The man who told them the story and led their small party to the cave must be the cannibal! | |

Transformers: Kiss Play: EDC Kiss Players who have failed are apparently stuffed into tubes somewhere below the base. Probably all of them were stripped naked first; Kiss Player Xiao Xiao woke in one such tube. When she looked around, the surrounding tubes contained partially eaten remains of other young women. Partially eaten by the phallic-tongued evil robots called Legion. One such was in Xiao Xiao's tube and ready to chow down. | |
