Google Maps has completely blurred out a house on a suburban road which hides a sickening history.

Hidden from view is a house that a kidnapped woman and two girls were caged and abused in for a decade, until their escape in 2013.

Sicko Ariel Castro offered lifts to Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight on three separate occasions before driving them to his home in Cleveland, Ohio, US.

Castro was jailed for life plus 1,000 years after he pleaded guilty to 937 counts of kidnapping and rape but he killed himself after just one month behind bars.

The house of horrors at 2208 Seymour Avenue has remained blurred on Google Maps as a result of the monstrosities committed inside its walls.

According to a previous estate agents listing, the two-storey building has four bedrooms, a bathroom, a basement, an attic and a detached garage.

A police investigation found tape and chains which Castro used to tie the women still as well as buckets to use as toilets while locked in a bedroom each.

Castro first preyed on Michelle Knight who was 21 years old when captured in August 2002, one day before she was due to appear in court for a custody hearing over her young son, Joey.

Several months later in April 2003, Castro kidnapped Amanda Berry on her way home from work at Burger King. She turned 17 in captivity the following day.

On Christmas Day 2006, Amanda gave birth to rapist Castro's baby who he named Jocelyn.

The evil monster struck for the third time in April 2004 when Gina DeJesus, 14, was walking home from school.

Gina told police that she only got in Castro's car because she knew one of his teenage daughters who lived with his ex, Grimilda Figueroa.

Years later in 2013, Castro's neighbour, Mr Ramsey saw Amanda yelling for help when the women were left alone in the house and they were finally freed from their torment.
