There have been many frightening real-life serial k**lers. I think that the most fiendish of the whole miserable lot is Ed Gein. He was Robert Bloch's inspiration to create Norman Bates in his novel "Psycho."
Gein was a resident of Plainfield, Wisconsin, a quiet community that considered him to be an oddball, but no one knew how truly odd he was until he was arrested for a murder. Police entered his house and were stunned and appalled to discover Gein's museum of human body parts.
Gein was also a graverobber.
It appears that Gein's mother was a domineering woman who convinced him that women were evil. After she died, her son built a shrine to her in his home and substituted dead bodies to replicate her. Gah! Ed had more than a few missing marbles.
Gein went to trial in 1958, where he was declared legally insane and confined to a hospital. Gein's house of horrors later mysteriously burned down. Gein (at age 62) returned to court, where he was convicted for one of the murders. He died in 1984.
So whom would you place into the Rogue's Gallery?

Obama's policies are causing death far and wide arond the world. Here at home a number of deaths can be placed squarely at his feet. If he keeps this race baiting BS going on, we may well end up in a internal war at home. I lived during the start of race troubles till to day. I have never seen either side more ready to have a go at the other side as since Obama put his ass in the middle of it.

I would include John Wayne Gacy who murdered over forty men and boys. Many of them he had hired to do odd jobs for him, and many he seduced and drugged. He dismembered most of his bodies and put them in his basement covered in lime. Others he threw off the bridge into the river in Joliet Illinois.
The movie "Silence of the Lambs" combined Ed Gein and Gacy behavior.
Add Jeffrey Dahmer to the list. He also murdered a number of young men, many of them he had drugged and had sex with before murdering them. He cut off the g*****ls on many and stored them in his freezer. Others he boiled the body parts in his kitchen, and supposedly ate some of the parts.
Wonderful neighbors all, weren't they?
