Goregrish.com is a shock site that contains uncensored images and video of cadavers, accident victims, drug overdoses, suicides, murders, capital punishments, including decapitations, botched surgeries, necrophilia, and war crimes. It also contains pornography and other adult content.[1]

Videos such as murders by the Dnepropetrovsk maniacs and the murder of Jun Lin by Luka Magnotta are freely available to view on the site.

The staff behind the goregrish Internet forum has been interviewed over the debate surrounding the morals of allowing this material to be shown online.[2]

In 2017, the website was named one of "The 7 goriest and must F#(ked up sites on the web" by Inked.[3]

Goregrish.com is banned from Google.de search results in Germany by order of the Bundestag.[4]

The website is believed to be an offshoot of the now-defunct Uncoverreality.com shock website, which itself was an offshoot of the defunct ogrish.com shock website (now called liveLeak.com), with many former members of both websites presently residing on the goregrish message boards.

History

Goregrish was established in June 2008 under another name, pwnographic.net.[5] It changed its name and domain to Goregrish.com in 2010.

Ngatikaura Ngati autopsy images

In October 2011, controversy arose when the autopsy images of Ngatikaura Ngati, a toddler who died of child abuse, appeared on goregrish.com and bestgore.com.[6]

New Zealand Children’s Commissioner Dr. Russell Wills said he was "appalled" at their use.[7]
