Evil dungeon dad Josef Fritzl has whined about feeling "isolated" in prison - and has written a letter to wife Rosemarie begging her to visit him.
Incredibly, his lawyer says he's now worried how his children are coping WITHOUT him.
Fritzl, 73, is sharing a cushy cell with one other inmate in Austria's St Polten prison as he awaits trial. But his room is a world away from the dingy windowless dungeon where he imprisoned his daughter Elisabeth for 24 years, repeatedly raping her and fathering seven children.
Inside the bright and airy cell he shares with a 36-year-old man arrested on GBH charges, there is a television, a stereo, loads of magazines and books and even a pretty plant.
A prison insider said: "There are clean sheets on the bed and a table with two chairs. There's an ashtray so they can smoke in the cell and even a cake on the table.
"They've got a striped rug on the ground and bedside tables by the bunk beds with reading lights.
"Fritzl is terrified someone will kill him. The other prisoners call him Satan and the only reason he's sharing a cell is so that his room mate can report on him and check he doesn't try to commit suicide."
Unlike his victims, Fritzl is allowed out for an hour a day to exercise but prefers to stay in due to threats on his life. Inmates bang on the wall of his cell and call in the night: "Hey Satan, come on out, we are going to get you."
Fritzl has asked his lawyer Rudolf Mayer: "Have none of my family asked about coming to visit me? Have you heard from Rosemarie?" He added: "Rosemarie was a wonderful woman, is a wonderful woman. I loved her and I still love her."
Mayer said: "Psychologically, my client is in a very bad way, but he does not complain. His appearance is far from what is known from those Thailand holiday pictures.
"His biggest fear is how his children are faring without him. He wants to know how they're coping with it all."
