Ed Gein the Plainfield ghoul or the mad
butcher this Wisconsin native inspired
not one but three of the most famous
movie killers the effeminate gained grew
up with a deep attachment to his abusive
mother and he eventually decided he
wanted to become a woman
only three murders were actually
attributed to him but he was terrifying
because he robbed graves and
murdered in order to form a woman suit
he could wear when authorities searched
his house after his capture
they found paraphernalia made of human
body parts littering his home game died
of cancer while incarcerated for one
murder in a mental institution in 1984
number 2 John Wayne Gacy the killer
clown
Gacy is why we’re all afraid of clowns
this seemingly upstanding citizen
dressed up as Pogo the clown for local
children’s parties however behind the
scenes he molested teens who work for
him in addition to other crimes he spent
18 months in jail for sodomy before he
moved and continued assaulting young
boys the murders began in 1972 he mostly
assaulted then strangled employees of
his landscaping company and other male
youths then buried them around his house
he was finally arrested at the end of
1978 and was convicted of 33 murders two
years later Gacy was executed by lethal
injection in 1994
what was your initial emotional response
just called on the Prophet get rid of
him evil wants to bury somebody it was
already gone number one Jeffrey Dahmer
the Milwaukee cannibal the Milwaukee
monster I knew I was sick or evil were
both now I believe I was sick
Dahmer first became known to police as a
registered sex offender
however the murders began in 1978 Dahmer
often picked up his male victims in gay
bars and had sex with them before
drugging and killing them when the
police finally searched his apartment
they found decomposing corpses and body
parts as well as photos of his victims
in various states of torture
Dahmer is also said to have engaged in
both necrophilia and cannibalism in 1992
he was sentenced to 15 life terms but he
was beaten to death by a fellow inmate
two years into his term because of the
disturbing nature of his crimes and his
outwardly articulate and calm demeanor
Jeffrey Dahmer is the worst serial
killer of all time I should have stayed
with God I tried and failed and created
a Holocaust
