- 8 years ago
Polaroid Killer.
On June 15, 1989, a Polaroid photo of an unidentified young woman and a boy, both bound and gagged,
was found in the parking lot of a convenience store in Port St. Joe, Florida.
The Zodiac Killer.
“Zodiac” was the self-appointed name of a serial killer active in northern California from the late 1960s into the early 1970s.
The Zodiac claimed, in various letters sent to newspapers, to have killed 37 people; 7 victims are known, 4 of whom comprised young couples,
and 2 of whom survived. Most of the Zodiac’s victims were shot in or near their cars.
Hinterkaifeck.
On the night of March 31, 1922, the six residents of Hinterkaifeck,
a small farmstead in Germany, were murdered with a mattock (a tool similar to a pickaxe). The victims were Andreas and Cäzilia Gruber,
their widowed daughter Viktoria, her children Cäzilia and Joseph, the maid, Maria Baumgartner.
Villisca Axe Murders.
On the night of June 9, 1912, the well-liked Moore family
(including four children aged 11 and under) and two other children,
friends of the Moore’s daughter Katherine, were bludgeoned to death by an axe in their home.
The bodies were found the next morning, their heads covered in bed cloths.
The Axeman of New Orleans.
Between 1918 and 1919, an axe murderer killed eight people in New Orleans and surrounding communities,
with more victims suspected. The majority of the victims were Italian-American, and most were killed with axes that belonged to them.
On March 13, 1919, someone claiming to be The Axeman published a chilling letter in the newspaper which, in part, read: “I am not a human being,
but a spirit and a demon from the hottest hell.
The Moonlight Murders.
Between February and May of 1946, and unknown serial killer called the “Phantom Killer”
shot 10 people (five of whom died) in and around Texarkana.
An urban legend grew around the case, stating that victims were attacked by the full moon;
however, this claim was unsubstantiated.
Mad Butcher of Kingsbury.
Also known as the Cleveland Torso Murderer, the Mad Butcher of Kingsbury Run was a serial killer active in Cleveland in the 1930s.
The official victim count is 12, but investigators believe the true number is likely higher.
The Mad Butcher was so named for beheading and dismembering his victims.
Jack the Ripper.
Jack the Ripper is the name given to a serial killer active in poor London communities in 1888.
There are 5 “canonical” murders with strong ties to Jack the Ripper, though 11 murders overall have been variously tied to the same figure.
The killer’s MO was to slash his victims’ (mostly female sex workers) throats and viciously mutilate the rest of their bodies, occasionally removing some of the victims’ organs.
The precision with which organ removal was done led some to believe Jack the Ripper had medical expertise.For more bone chilling videos visit our website : www.videozonly.com
