How the hell was Bundy number 6? He's easily one of the most famous serial killers in America, probably second only to Dahmer. The top 3 should have been Gacy, Bundy, and Dahmer. That's like the classic trio of American serial killers. Also, I wouldn't have included Albert DeSalvo because he's really not all that famous and they don't even know if he did all the murders. A better choice probably would have been Ed Kemper.
I agree bundy number 6 I was like well who's going to have beaten him then was expecting some serious killers I've never heard off which was unlikely as I do keep upto date with all the crime documentaries ect. But I feel like they sometimes just chuck these lists together for views and although the info is pretty accurate most of the time the order that they rate them on seems to be more about the creators actual personal opinion rather than hard facts Im not complaining tho and I'm still watching lol.
gazathug53 I think people consider him to be more of a contract killer than a sereal killer, and personally I'm not as scared of people like him because most of the people he killed were other criminals and mafia members.
At 3 & 4 yrs old my father, just home from the war and a LEO--drilled into my head--EVERYONE IS CAPABLE OF ANYTHING!! I don't ever want to hear you say you don't think someone isn't capable of something---because why?? EVERYONE IS CAPABLE IS CAPABLE IS CAPABLE OF ANYTHING!! WE ARE ALL ANIMALS JUST THE HIGHEST FORM --we can think-which makes us that much more violent... Needless to say I've never forgotten that wise advise.
Amal Nasir All serial killers as children and adolescents are usually cynical, jaded and pessimistic but without a doubt they are right but their actions wrong
No! The worst of them all! Just seeing his name again gives me the creeps. Now I will have nightmares :( wait a second- do I hear a bus outside? BRB I am going to check it out...
Eileen never tortured her victims sexually; she never banged the dead bodies of her victims. She was traumatized for obvious reasons. She deserved life in prison but not death.
Dahmer was one messed up man but I do at least give him credit for admitting what he did and completely coming clean and trying to figure out why he was the way he was. most pysco killers try to fight the charges and lie. Dahmer never did that.
+Croc Lover yea but compared to these other serial killers, they tried to run, hide and lie their way out if punishment. Dahmer truly wanted to know what was wrong with him. he was definitely sick but he knew this and admitted all from the beginning
I think it was actually a victim of his who managed to escape and then told the police about dahmers actions but im not quite sure... he also told the court that he feels some sort of demon inside him telling him to do the stuff he did to all these people
fmellark Lol, that's true! The worst, though? Do some research on "Albert Fish". He kidnapped young children, raped them, tortured them with his "implements of hell", ate them, then sent detailed letters describing exactly what he did to each child to the families of the victim. Gacy was godawful, but in my opinion, Albert was the worst! He was such a monster! D':
I'm surprised Albert Fish didn't make this list. When I read about his crimes it literally made me sick, I nearly threw up. His murders were unfathomable & made it obvious the word "deranged" was an understatement for who he was.
He was convicted of the murders through the joint-responsibility rule, which makes each member of a conspiracy guilty of crimes his fellow conspirators commit in furtherance of the conspiracy's objective.[1][2] His followers also murdered several other people at other times and locations, and Manson was also convicted for two of these other murders (of Gary Hinman and Donald "Shorty" Shea).
oressie simmons Yes, but that doesn't make him a serial killer. He never killed anyone. He just made other people kill. That's not the same thing. A serial killer is defined as someone who commits more than three murders over a period that spans more than one month. So no, he's not a serial killer.
the Zodiac Killer just got a new suspect a month ago. The guy died in 2002, but confessed to a friend. His story holds water, seeing as he went to high school with 2 victims, worked with another and was off at war the 2 years there were no letters.
I had a friend who used to live across the street from Dahmer. He saw Dahmer frequently and said he acted like any other person. Evil does not hide in the shadows, nor does it take on a hideous figure. Evil is among us and is where you least expect it.
Even though they're bad they are smart. I'm not a murderer but I know how to get away with murder. Again not a murderer. Serial killers are always the smart ones and usually purposely turn themselves in by pretending to mess up in one crime so they can have fame for a while and be known through our the world
A different take on your comment would be "Top Ten Police Investigations That Were Solved When Some Non-police Officer Literally Handed The Suspects To The Cops On A Silver Platter." Most crimes are solved by people turning in others. Actual forensic and detective work seldom finds criminals. The FBI did a lengthy and detailed personality profile on the Unibomber which was wrong on almost every metric. The Unibomber was caught when his brother called the FBI and turned him in.
What about The Iceman (Richard Kuklinski)? He killed over 100 people and had a family which never had any idea that he was working with the mafia, they all thought he had a normal job and everyone thought he lived a normal life. The interviews of him are truly chilling as he is completely devoid of feelings or remorse.
howaboutthatsuckah He did have remorse and complete guilt for the betrayal of his family, he cried in the interview. He was a hitman with no possible way of feeling emotion during his killings.
Chatoyante Which is the only time he showed any kind of emotion, he doesn't regret being a killer, he just regrets getting caught because it hurt his family to find out
Kuklinski described himself as a serial killer and in his book it was very obvious he got off on it. He happen to get paid for it. (many killings he did he wasn't paid for)
I never understood why people thought bundy was good looking. One thing I found interesting about dahmer was that he showed rare and sincere regret and remorse for his actions. All of the horrible things he did were a twisted evil way to get closer to his victims. He tried making zombies because he didn't want to lose them. He ate parts of them so that they would forever be a part of him, which is a common tribal tradition, particularly in South America.
and he did not blame anyone for all his killing. not his parent's divorce, not pornography, not anyone. i think he just wants to be with someone but he doesn't know how or he just way too paranoid.
The Green River Killer showed remorse, too, when a white-bearded elderly man sent a powerful message of grace and forgiveness his way, in the midst of(understandably so) hate-filled words from loved ones of his victims.
From what I have read about him (Bundy) it wasn't just 'good looks', but was more his personal charm and charisma that made him such an effective predator. As the famous saying goes: Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so while some might think him handsome, others would find him less so.
yes and no. some serial killers let themselves get caught for the fame. but more than likely the greatest killer ever will never be known because he is just that good.
i always liked the way that the zodiac killer put out notes revealing who he is, and yet the police still couldnt crack it. he is a genius. or he created a secret tongue for himself.
Esraug9012 im a very weird individual. no, i dont like that he got away with murder, but the proccess is kind of something that only a gutsy person would do. its kinda hard to explain the thought proccess, but i assure you that the killings had nothing to do in the original post.
Skintel N.Keychain i'm especially into what you tried too say. (but i'm more terrible at explplaining it, my english is far not the best) ... a lot of those people are kind of "fascinating" in a own way. i really don't want to praise them or protect them and their cruel deeds. but it's like ted bundy or gary ridgway, who were also a little geniuses in getting away from the police and killing without leaving any marks.
Brianna Banana Well yeah he's fucked up but he only personally killed 2 people and it's disputed if he even committed one of them, we really only know about that little girl he strangled. But yeah he's a complete sociopath cannibal and should be number one if they made a video on top 10 KILLERS but not SERIAL killers
But Bundy is also a product of a broken childhood. I believe what sent him over the edge was when he was 13 and found out his "sister" was actually his mother.
hydrolito I've heard in a documentary that he was afraid of being humiliated by women, so the fact that his mother lied to him at such an early age and for such a long time is certainly one of the reasons why he murdered women. It's fucked up, sure, but it does make sense
Others to consider for when you do your "More" list: Richard Ramirez Edmund Kemper Charles Manson "Family" Wayne Williams Kristen Gilbert Dean Corll Henry Lee Lucas & Ottis Toole Donald Harvey H.H. Holmes Angelo Buono, Jr. & Kenneth Bianchi "The Hillside Stranglers" Charles Ng & Leonard Lake David Parker Ray Jack Kevorkian Rodney Alcala "The Dating Game Killer" Tommy Lynn Sells Herb Bauminster Michael Swango "Sister" Amy Archer-Gilligan
Manson was a master manipulator, but he wasn't a serial killer (technically). His followers are the ones who committed the murders, but Manson is responsible for them. I personally don't see him as a serial killer, but some people do
After reading Erik Larson's "The Devil In The White City," I find it surprising that Dr. H.H. Holmes wasn't included on this list. Not only was he an incredibly sadistic murderer, but his crimes also took place during a very historic episode in American history (the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago). Some other dishonorable mentions: 1) Albert Fish (that guy was fucked up beyond belief!) 2) The Hillside Strangers 3) Richard Ramirez 4) Henry Lee Lucas 5) Tommy Lynn Sells 6) Leonard Lake and Charles Ng
*Nina Gold You're a pretty woman there yourself. I don't know what you or any woman would ever find attractive in someone that looks like him. The eyes alone suggest he was a psycho...
I love watchmojo cuz they don't use missleading thumbnails and titles like other channels that use thumbnails from like movies for videos about serial killers that are real.
All of these guys except for Dahmer were unrepentant. He's a unique case among all serial killers because there was actually some level of remorse on his statements and interviews following his capture. With all the others, there was a very disturbing emptiness.
Yasmin S. I think her problem was just she was treated like garbage by men her whole life and it probably drove her mad. When she makes statements like "everyone is evil" you don't get that kind of perception by people treating you nicely.
In Australia there was a serial killer called the Claremont Serial Killer and he was never caught, killed a whole lot of people as well. Still gives me chills as I live near where the murders occured
Thank you! I got in a heated debate in psychology class when my professor grouped him in with other well known serial killers. I'm not saying he isn't a complete wackjob, but he is no serial killer.
ever heard of Andrei Chikatilo? the sickest being on the planet EVER! However, if we're talking about this list particularly, he hardly beats the likes of Duhmer and JWG to the top spots.
unfortunately our society does not seek to reform criminals, instead, law makers imagine killing them or locking them away for irrational lengths of time will some how detract from the problem of crime and aberrancy.
Jasmine blake That's because, in reality, major criminals are rarely capable of reforming, therefore making those that do all that more of an interesting curiosity that would be a great list topic.
molemanninethousand Rarely capable of reforming, what are you basing that on? Bastoy would contradict your assertion with a reformation rate of 83% because they treat prisoners like human beings and their objective is actually to reform.
Dishonorable Mentions: * Albert Fish - the Gray Man, the Brooklyn Vampire, the Moon Maniac * Charles Cullen - the Angel of Death * Randy Steven Kraft - the Scorecard Killer, the Southern California Strangler, the Freeway Killer * Robert Hansen - the Butcher Baker * Patrick Kearney - the Trash Bag Killer
***** Various witnesses identifying the zodiac killer as a male. Not to mention one of his victims getting away and obviously describing him as a man. Duh.
***** Some people never learn. Quite sad really. Seems your stubborn nature won't let you grow up. Anyway, I don't allow kids like you on my comment section so it's time for you to leave. Stay in school child.
H. H. Holmes should have been in the top 10 as one of the most monstrous murderers in history. He created a murder house, known as the "Murder Castle" in the 1890's and killed an unknown number of victims at the Chicago World's Fair. What he created in that house became the back bone of horror movies.
No one will ever know just how many he(H.H Holmes killed that was a true monster, but don't Forget Albert Fish ...or Richard Leonard " The Iceman" Kuklinski (he actually was said to have body count closer to two hundred and wasn't known to be a liar so i was waiting for his name to come up).
2011Hotmusic which he are you referring to? Because they are all classified as serial killers. Mass killers on the other hand are very angry men who are usually between the ages of 24-40 who usually have serious mental issues. They show some signs of a serial killer, but are extremely messy and disorganized. They are usually pushed aside by society and made to feel as if they have no reason to be there. Mass killers also have a tendency to have an enormous arsenal of guns, usually machine and automatic weapons, they also tend to use explosives and dress in camouflage. Post offices, restaurants, schools, or any public place that carries a lot of people are usually where mass murderers take their frustrations out. Most victims to mass killers do not even know their killer, they are just basically in the wrong place at the wrong time kind of situation. When ready to kill, mass killers kill all at one time, there is no time frame in-between killings at all and once finished they are usually killed by police officers or they commit suicide. One well known mass murderer case is the Columbine Massacre where Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold decided to take their rage out on students that they disliked by ambushing their school and killing 12 students and a teacher as well as injuring 24 others, then turning the gun on themselves. This is your typical mass murder mo, two young men who claimed to be picked on by the more popular students, planning out their fate with an arsenal of weapons and violence, killing themselves when all feelings of satisfaction are fulfilled. Last but not least we have the spree killers. They are not as common as serial or mass killers but are just as dangerous. Basically a spree killer is someone who does not stop and wait for recognition of the crimes committed. They go in, kill and move on to the next victim or victims. Their time frame between killings is very sporadic, spree killers can kill 20 people in one day and 20 the next, putting fear into communities all across the state or country. They do not have any specific mo and can kill one day with a gun and the next day with a knife. One example of a dangerous spree killer is Charles Starkweather and Caril Fugate his girlfriend. The two together murdered 11 victims while driving through Nebraska to Wyoming, their murders inspired the film Natural Born Killers written by Quentin Tarantino and that is all different from serial killers and whole different type of psychopathy,
Dr. H H Holmes. He was the most organized, most manipulative then all these men combined. he had people signed over insurance polices to him, took control of pietzel's children, he was caught because of his insurance scams and debt, not because he built a murder castle with a 2nd floor maze, a full sized safe for poisoning and had his own incinerator in the basement, where he also peeled the flesh from some of his victims and sold the cleaned skeletons to medical schools for a profit. The exact number of deaths he is responsible for could be anywhere from 50-200... a lot more prolific then many of these, and yes, American.
I still have to watch the video, but your first sentence implies he's not on this list? That would be a pity, because I agree with you that he would be the absolute #1 :/
Where the fuck is Richard Ramirez???, who ever made this list should get fired. The guy who made the Top 10 Movies of All Time list should get fired too.
some people that could have made the list was henry lee lucas,otis otoole, albert fish. richard speck to name a few i think this list was based off of popularity. a great book is hunting humans a encyclopedia of serial killers by micheal newton
The Chicken Coop Killer. He kidnapped several boys with the help of his nephew where he then locked them in a chicken coop. He then selected one of the ones boys he had inside and chopped them up with an ax. He even had his nephew finish some off. He was then captured and hanged. This was depicted in the film Changeling. Sad and horrible murders.
gamelvr1 Richard Kuklinski killed FAR more than 5 people, if you think that's all that man has killed, then I'm not quite sure what to say. He was good at what he did, both as a mob hitman and as a deranged killer, he was good at hiding his crimes. he actually was only convicted of 4 killings IIRC. The man killed far more people though, it's easy to connect the dots as the lines are already in place regarding him...
Manson was sentenced to death but that was changed to multiple life term sentence when the Supreme Court declared the death penalty unconstitutional in the early 1970s. He is currently incarcerated in the California prison system and will die in prison. This year he was turned down yet again for parole.a
thats what i was thinking 2 he was possibly the most horrible serial killer in history with his house of horrors they said there were so many bodies they couldnt even keep count so im guessing in the thousands at the least in the hundreds
genestarwind7 I'm guessing you mean the Murder Castle? They found out it was between 100-200, based on the amount of missing persons reports, eye-witnesses and a assessment of the scene
1 Henry Lee Lucas 1936-2001 600 victims 2 Peter Nirsch "-1581 520 victims 3 Pedro Alonso Lopez 1948-alive 350 victims 4 Harold Friederick Shipman 1946-2004 345 victims 5 Erzebeth Bathory 1560-1615 320 victims 6 Amelia Dyer 1838-1896 300 victims 7 Luis Alfredo Gravito Cubillos 1957-alive 300 victims 8 Richard Leonard Kuklinski 1935-2006 250 victims 9 Henry Howard Holmer or Herman Muggets 1861-1896 200 victims 10 Daniel Carmago Barbosa 1930-1994 150 victims 11 Pedro Rodriguez Filho 1954-alive 100 victims
cesarrguedezz Or the Best..depending on how you see it. DONT get me wrong he was bad, but a "Worst" pedo would imply that he was essentially harmless and could do anything....but the "Best" would imply a more scarier person.....ex: "The Perfect Storm" the reason why it was perfect is because it was deadly....if it was the "worst" storm, it would just be a small wind gust.....
Heart goes out to all those victims who had the worse day of their lives, suffering so much and hoping until the last moment someone would save them. I hope there is a God not so that he can punish the killers but that he can nourish the opressed.
You often see that the serialkillers show no emotion. However , when the father of one of his victims said that he forgives him , Gary Ridgeway started crying. You can probably find it on TH-cam aswell.

I find Gacy way worst than Dahmer. People who hurt children are the worst kind.
fmellark Eh, Dahmer still killed a fourteen year old boy.
artawesome30 still... Gacy was worst. He killed a BUNCH of them. Can't think of a worst serial killer (except maybe Hitler)

He was
i always liked the way that the zodiac killer put out notes revealing who he is, and yet the police still couldnt crack it. he is a genius. or he created a secret tongue for himself.
You like that he got away with murder and taunted police? Wtf is wrong with you?
Esraug9012 im a very weird individual. no, i dont like that he got away with murder, but the proccess is kind of something that only a gutsy person would do. its kinda hard to explain the thought proccess, but i assure you that the killings had nothing to do in the original post.
Skintel N.Keychain I think I get what your saying. Your fascinated with how he revealed himself which was never solved. Is that it?
Doomslayingrocker yes! im just kinda terrible at explaining it. :)
Skintel N.Keychain i'm especially into what you tried too say. (but i'm more terrible at explplaining it, my english is far not the best) ... a lot of those people are kind of "fascinating" in a own way. i really don't want to praise them or protect them and their cruel deeds. but it's like ted bundy or gary ridgway, who were also a little geniuses in getting away from the police and killing without leaving any marks.
what about the original night stalker? That guy scares the crap out of me.
richard ramirez?
+alice wwonderland no the one that was never caught.
+alice wwonderland no the one that was never caught.

Another murderer dubbed "the night stalker" was never caught but for me Richard Ramirez is the "true" night stalker.
Has anyone heard of Albert Fish? AKA The Gray Man? i think he should've been in the list.
Torture house in Chicago he was twisted
Brianna Banana
Well yeah he's fucked up but he only personally killed 2 people and it's disputed if he even committed one of them, we really only know about that little girl he strangled. But yeah he's a complete sociopath cannibal and should be number one if they made a video on top 10 KILLERS but not SERIAL killers
For the Grace Bud story alone
@@NotTheOrigamiKiller He had three confirmed murders not two(check Wikipedia)
But Bundy is also a product of a broken childhood. I believe what sent him over the edge was when he was 13 and found out his "sister" was actually his mother.
Ray Venn Nerdiness so if heard worse
Ray Venn Nerdiness Actually no he starting killing when he was 12 years old
And it's said his grandfather was abusive. He lived with his grandparents till he was 3.
Why would find out his sister was actually his mother cause him to kill anyone else that does not make sense.
hydrolito I've heard in a documentary that he was afraid of being humiliated by women, so the fact that his mother lied to him at such an early age and for such a long time is certainly one of the reasons why he murdered women. It's fucked up, sure, but it does make sense
What about Richard Ramirez (the night stalker) he had a giant kill count and they took ages to find him
I bet Dahmer is #1
yup.
Da'Jour Cooper probably

I think Albert Fish should be at least in the honorable mentions, he was a monster, however, I don't think of Manson as a serial killer.
He was a real jerk.
He was in a band
+mistermarc631 *facepalm
Manson was a master manipulator, but he wasn't a serial killer (technically). His followers are the ones who committed the murders, but Manson is responsible for them. I personally don't see him as a serial killer, but some people do
How about H. H. Homles?
bundy is way more notorious than the other 3 you put after him
He is up there with dahmer for sure
Norman Bates Leather face Buffalo Bob They were all base off of Edward Keane So high rank M higher than Bundy
After reading Erik Larson's "The Devil In The White City," I find it surprising that Dr. H.H. Holmes wasn't included on this list. Not only was he an incredibly sadistic murderer, but his crimes also took place during a very historic episode in American history (the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago).
Some other dishonorable mentions:
1) Albert Fish (that guy was fucked up beyond belief!)
2) The Hillside Strangers
3) Richard Ramirez
4) Henry Lee Lucas

I love watchmojo cuz they don't use missleading thumbnails and titles like other channels that use thumbnails from like movies for videos about serial killers that are real.
All of these guys except for Dahmer were unrepentant. He's a unique case among all serial killers because there was actually some level of remorse on his statements and interviews following his capture. With all the others, there was a very disturbing emptiness.
Yep, especially with Gacy. The sort of matter-of-fact way he speaks about what he did is very chilling. Its like somebody talking about the weather!
There's an obvious humanity in Wuornos too.
Yasmin S. I think her problem was just she was treated like garbage by men her whole life and it probably drove her mad. When she makes statements like "everyone is evil" you don't get that kind of perception by people treating you nicely.
It's always an act. Always. Sociopaths can have incredible manipulative abilities, and use them to catch their prey
Ridgeway seemed remorseful, as well.
it is still crazy to me how the zodiac killer was never caught
Fr i mean he is pretty smart tho
He may have been😳
What about Albert Fish? He lured children, killed them, then ate them, and wrote letters to their parents...
I like this REDUX idea.
Why isnt Ted Bundy in the top 3? he deserves a top 3.

it really bugs me when I see Charles mansons photo on these videos he wasn't a serial killer!!
Thank you! I got in a heated debate in psychology class when my professor grouped him in with other well known serial killers. I'm not saying he isn't a complete wackjob, but he is no serial killer.
umm how he killed a series of people and was well aware of what he was doing that is the exact definition of a serial killer
+Abbey Hendricks wrong. He convinced his followers to kill in his name, but he didn't actually kill anyone himself.
I mean he got his followers to kill in his name maybe not a serial killer but still a fucking Psycho path
Yet he was convicted of first degree murder, even though he never committed a murder. I was arguing this too but he was convicted.
The 1970's-80's was a rough time.
This redux thing is a good idea.
how is zodiac killer #8??
alpha bison ask myself this too.
Literally the most infamous killer ever. Maybe besides Jack the Ripper.
ever heard of Andrei Chikatilo? the sickest being on the planet EVER! However, if we're talking about this list particularly, he hardly beats the likes of Duhmer and JWG to the top spots.
Culton Ruey jack the ripper is definetly the most famous serial killer ever
#7 makes me curious, how about you make Top 10 Reformed Real-Life Murderers/Villains? That would be interesting.
unfortunately our society does not seek to reform criminals, instead, law makers imagine killing them or locking them away for irrational lengths of time will some how detract from the problem of crime and aberrancy.
Jasmine blake That's because, in reality, major criminals are rarely capable of reforming, therefore making those that do all that more of an interesting curiosity that would be a great list topic.
molemanninethousand Rarely capable of reforming, what are you basing that on? Bastoy would contradict your assertion with a reformation rate of 83% because they treat prisoners like human beings and their objective is actually to reform.
Jasmine blake Hrm, not sure what that is but if true then you may have a point.

What about Albert Fish? What he did was pretty disturbing, especially the Grace Budd murder/letter
Ted Bundy scares me because he lured a lot of people with his good looks. That's scary because he is really attractive and I see how that would work.

The Zodiac Killer should be higher because he was never caught.
***** But he's an infamous serial killer that killed in America.....
***** Various witnesses identifying the zodiac killer as a male. Not to mention one of his victims getting away and obviously describing him as a man. Duh.
***** You're one to talk lol. Stubborn as fuck. Btw, still an infamous serial killer in America.
***** Some people never learn. Quite sad really. Seems your stubborn nature won't let you grow up. Anyway, I don't allow kids like you on my comment section so it's time for you to leave. Stay in school child.
H. H. Holmes should have been in the top 10 as one of the most monstrous murderers in history. He created a murder house, known as the "Murder Castle" in the 1890's and killed an unknown number of victims at the Chicago World's Fair. What he created in that house became the back bone of horror movies.
What about H.H. Holmes? He committed tons of murders during the 1893 World's Fair.
No one will ever know just how many he(H.H Holmes killed that was a true monster, but don't Forget Albert Fish ...or Richard Leonard " The Iceman" Kuklinski (he actually was said to have body count closer to two hundred and wasn't known to be a liar so i was waiting for his name to come up).
daylanrayne Holy shit your grammar is atrocious.
They said serial killers. I believe he'd be a mass murderer.
2011Hotmusic which he are you referring to? Because they are all classified as serial killers.
Mass killers on the other hand are very angry men who are usually between the ages of 24-40 who usually have serious mental issues. They show some signs of a serial killer, but are extremely messy and disorganized. They are usually pushed aside by society and made to feel as if they have no reason to be there. Mass killers also have a tendency to have an enormous arsenal of guns, usually machine and automatic weapons, they also tend to use explosives and dress in camouflage. Post offices, restaurants, schools, or any public place that carries a lot of people are usually where mass murderers take their frustrations out. Most victims to mass killers do not even know their killer, they are just basically in the wrong place at the wrong time kind of situation. When ready to kill, mass killers kill all at one time, there is no time frame in-between killings at all and once finished they are usually killed by police officers or they commit suicide. One well known mass murderer case is the Columbine Massacre where Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold decided to take their rage out on students that they disliked by ambushing their school and killing 12 students and a teacher as well as injuring 24 others, then turning the gun on themselves. This is your typical mass murder mo, two young men who claimed to be picked on by the more popular students, planning out their fate with an arsenal of weapons and violence, killing themselves when all feelings of satisfaction are fulfilled.
Last but not least we have the spree killers. They are not as common as serial or mass killers but are just as dangerous. Basically a spree killer is someone who does not stop and wait for recognition of the crimes committed. They go in, kill and move on to the next victim or victims. Their time frame between killings is very sporadic, spree killers can kill 20 people in one day and 20 the next, putting fear into communities all across the state or country. They do not have any specific mo and can kill one day with a gun and the next day with a knife. One example of a dangerous spree killer is Charles Starkweather and Caril Fugate his girlfriend. The two together murdered 11 victims while driving through Nebraska to Wyoming, their murders inspired the film Natural Born Killers written by Quentin Tarantino
and that is all different from serial killers and whole different type of psychopathy,
daylanrayne You seem to know a lot about crimes. Also, I thought she mentioned the murderer killed a lot of people during a certain event.
I'm rather surprised that Richard Kuklinski (The Iceman) wasn't on this list anywhere. That dude was really something.
ikr, maybe they're saving him for a top 10 hitmen or something
Yeah! He was one of the ultimate Hitmen/Family Man combos. Got away with it for a really long time!
Yeah he did i agree
How about Albert Fish? He was one hell of a sicko. Look him up
I am honestly surprised Charlie Manson wasn't up here...
He wasn't a serial killer, he was a cult leader who convinced people to kill for him.
Oh ok, that makes more sense. I always thught he was a serial killer. Thanks for clearing that up! :D
Knowledge is power!
Indeed!
He did it to start a race war....

Yaseen yo I live in in Milwaukee. go to say I'm glad I wasn't alive when he was eating people
What about H.H. Holmes? America’s very first serial killer
Dr. H H Holmes. He was the most organized, most manipulative then all these men combined. he had people signed over insurance polices to him, took control of pietzel's children, he was caught because of his insurance scams and debt, not because he built a murder castle with a 2nd floor maze, a full sized safe for poisoning and had his own incinerator in the basement, where he also peeled the flesh from some of his victims and sold the cleaned skeletons to medical schools for a profit. The exact number of deaths he is responsible for could be anywhere from 50-200... a lot more prolific then many of these, and yes, American.
I still have to watch the video, but your first sentence implies he's not on this list? That would be a pity, because I agree with you that he would be the absolute #1 :/
I think Triple-H deserves a spot on this list.
Yeah Dr. 3 H should have been num. 1
I feel H H Holmes should have been added. He is rather infamous
And all their neighbors say " he was a quiet man, kept to himself mostly. "
That is always a red flag to me
Why is that lol I guess your not a quiet man

U should get fired :)
some people that could have made the list was henry lee lucas,otis otoole, albert fish. richard speck to name a few i think this list was based off of popularity.
a great book is hunting humans a encyclopedia of serial killers by micheal newton
I'm watching this right before going to bed, definitely a great idea
The Chicken Coop Killer. He kidnapped several boys with the help of his nephew where he then locked them in a chicken coop. He then selected one of the ones boys he had inside and chopped them up with an ax. He even had his nephew finish some off. He was then captured and hanged.
This was depicted in the film Changeling. Sad and horrible murders.
What he did is inexcusable and horrid, but his nickname is pretty funny.
This makes me want to stay inside for the rest of my life
Seeing these serial killers makes me wonder just when I'll snap... Lol
Where the fuck is the Ice Man? He killed over 200 people. He should be on this list.
gamelvr1 Richard Kuklinski killed FAR more than 5 people, if you think that's all that man has killed, then I'm not quite sure what to say. He was good at what he did, both as a mob hitman and as a deranged killer, he was good at hiding his crimes. he actually was only convicted of 4 killings IIRC. The man killed far more people though, it's easy to connect the dots as the lines are already in place regarding him...
He has killed over 200. Watch his long ass interview. He even describes how he did a few.
Yep, seen it. Really chilling stuff the way he talked about it, with such a sense of calmness.
Well, yeah. He's a psychopath. Psychopath's don't feel emotion the same way as others.
***** ssoo true
No honerable mentions this time?
I remember hearing about that interview with Ted Bundy. He was 100% correct. What he said was both fascinating and frightening.
where are Charles Manson and Richard Ramirez
Charles Manson did not kill himself. He forced his followers to kill.
Jessica Tudor-Crisp and they did have Richard Ramirez zodiac
+MADVIKING19 Richard Ramirez isnt the zodiac killer
Manson was sentenced to death but that was changed to multiple life term sentence when the Supreme Court declared the death penalty unconstitutional in the early 1970s. He is currently incarcerated in the California prison system and will die in prison. This year he was turned down yet again for parole.a
Manson never actually killed anyone and even if he did, he'd still just qualify as a Mass Murderer.
I dont know why I still watch these videos, because I know everything there is to know.
It's probably because I'm crazy into this shit.
Twins!!!
Jean Smart's television movie portrayal is often forgotten. Which was also brilliant in my humble opinion.
No matter the rankings, these were all very disturbing, horrific people.
What about H. H. Holmes?
thats what i was thinking 2 he was possibly the most horrible serial killer in history with his house of horrors they said there were so many bodies they couldnt even keep count so im guessing in the thousands at the least in the hundreds
genestarwind7 I'm guessing you mean the Murder Castle? They found out it was between 100-200, based on the amount of missing persons reports, eye-witnesses and a assessment of the scene
***** ahh yeh i dunno i just watched some documentary on it well on my "at least" part i did guess in the hundreds so woot ;D
I am using this video as a source in my class right now!
No Richard Ramirez? Or Albert Fish?

where's the Hack Slinging Slasher? come on you guys...
Should have Albert Fish on it, that man was a demon.
Worst pedofile in history!
cesarrguedezz Or the Best..depending on how you see it. DONT get me wrong he was bad, but a "Worst" pedo would imply that he was essentially harmless and could do anything....but the "Best" would imply a more scarier person.....ex: "The Perfect Storm" the reason why it was perfect is because it was deadly....if it was the "worst" storm, it would just be a small wind gust.....
It's an absolutely wonderful idea to watch this right before you go to bed
Why isn't H.H. Holmes on the list? He was literally Americas 1st known cereal killer and possibly the real Jack the ripper.
Cereal killer ? You mean he killed Tony the Tiger ?
I turn into a cereal killer whenever I have breakfast. Why am I not on the list?
***** xD LOOOOL!!!!!
Heart goes out to all those victims who had the worse day of their lives, suffering so much and hoping until the last moment someone would save them. I hope there is a God not so that he can punish the killers but that he can nourish the opressed.
this comment!! yes i agree w you completely, i always think about how victims felt in those moment, imagine that fear and pain, just horrible😣😔
You often see that the serialkillers show no emotion. However , when the father of one of his victims said that he forgives him , Gary Ridgeway started crying. You can probably find it on TH-cam aswell.
