Question about Albert Fish & that young man.
Albert said that he got a young man with a developmental to go to an abandoned building with him. He tied him up so tightly parts of his body turned blue and left him there over night. Whe he came back he started cutting off the young mans penis, but he had a change of heart and let him go. My question is this A)Albert fish lied a lots there a chance this is something he just made up? B) What happen to the young man, did he bleed out from his wound? Would he have been able to get medical treatment ? Would the authorities put him in jail or a mental institution .
Are the US the Capitol of serial Killers?
I live in Germany in Europe and we have roughly 1/3 of the population of the USA. But i have never even Heard nearly as much stories about serial killers compared to the US. we have some but they are very rare i would say. The Last "big one" was a nurse who killed His geriatric patients I think.

A fascinating & fantastical 1h40+m interview with Ray Horsch from 2013 about his life in crime, art, and pornography - I think he's the mastermind of the new Philly horror show
I listened to this interview close to a decade ago and it always stuck with me because of how fantastical it is and because Ray is from Stroudsburg in NEPA which is near where ai grew up.
I can't believe this Forrest Gump of Crime came back into my life. in this he talks about riding a horse to school, bucking the school system, being a burglar and phone tapper for black projects with the CIA and FBI, he talks about running weed for the Mafia, he talks about xonterfetting money AND picassos, he talks about working at sesame Street, he talks about making meth for biker gangs and going on the run from the feds. oh and he had just gotten out of jail for attempting to abduct a 9-year-old girl.

Is it Raymond Horsch? Is it Eugene Horsch ?
Is it both of them. There are women after women going to that house. Preying on the weak. If they showed weakness, they were treated as such..
He was an American erotic photographer, filmmaker, and writer (born May 5, 1943, in East Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania; died May 2025). He directed adult films starting with The Erotic Memoirs of a Male Chauvinist Pig (1973) and had a long career involving explicit and often violent-themed work. He also had criminal convictions for counterfeiting, methamphetamine manufacturing, and related offenses, and used aliases at times (including while a fugitive in New Zealand).
That’s not all.. Raymond Horsch wasn’t done. Raymond and be elf-published Empathy: The Memoir of an Empathetic Serial Killer in 2014.
Now we wait until they tell us more. And believe me, there will be more.
Could Jack the ripper really be HH Holmes?
I see some people saying that Jack the Ripper could be HH Holmes.
But clearly, it wasn’t HH Holmes because of time location, killing methods, medical training, etc.
Sometimes when I really think about it, how would we honestly know if each each home was Jack there?
Cause he can have an other disguise change his name or even fake his logs so what do you guys think about it?
Why were the academy maniacs so attached to each other?
On one hand, I understand they both grew up in similar environments and therefore bonded easily with each other. On the other hand, I also can’t really understand… why? Besides the fact that they were similar in some aspects, what made them so special to each other? Was that the only factor?
If anyone has any link I could read on their relationship it would be very nice, thank you for reading this.
Was Aileen Wuornos' execution manipulated by the Bush brothers for political purposes?
George W was running for president and his brother Jeb was the governor who had signed off on Wuornos' execution. I think she had made some comments about them having a political motive for her death but was there any truth in that?

Serial Killers that are Identical- Megan Huntsman and Michele Kalina
Megan Huntsman and Michele Kalina: Two Neonaticide serial killers who murdered their own babies right after giving birth to them and hiding their bodies in parts of their homes. Megan’s took place in Utah while Michele’s was in Pennysylvania.
Megan and Michele are some of the most identical in crime serial killers in America.
They both were mothers who murdered their babies right after they were born and concealed them in desolate parts of their homes: The garage for Megan and the closet for Michele. Their methods of disposing of the bodies was placing them in various containers they could find in their homes and meticulously sealing them up. They had the same fault of not disposing of the babies’s corpse’s and forgetting the bodies. Eventually, they both had relatives who wanted to clean out the spaces due to the clutter (Megan’s ex-husband and Michele’s daughter) only to discover the grisly scene of multiple corpses of babies. Both even started committing their crimes in the same year: 1996. They somehow successfully hidden all of their pregnancies from their husbands (and gave birth in their bathrooms) without anyone noticing even though both were clearly pregnant. They also had children they let live during their killing cycle. Megan had a daughter she eventually raised, and Michelle had a baby she put up for adoption. Between 1996 and 2010 they gave birth to about 6 babies each and murdered them before stuffing their bodies in whatever they found in their him and placing them in the garage/closet so the bodies can’t be Found.
The two were eventually caught, and gave the same dumbfounded look in their mugshots. They even attributed their actions for their alcohol addiction.
Megan confessed to the crimes while Michele was more unwilling with her claiming all were stillborn except one who moved. They were eventually sentenced to lengthy jail terms and are still in prison.
Visitable graves/final resting places of American serial killers
google.comPHILADELPHIA: A House of Horrors (400 W Chew Street)
I am someone who has struggled with addiction in my past. One of the victims recently discovered was a childhood friend of my ex wife. She reached out last night in shambles coming to terms with the recent news.
Not only does it hit close to home, but this is close to where I reside now. Making this more surreal than I could’ve imagined. It’s no secret, Philadelphia has one of the highest drug usage in the nation, as Kensington is the epicenter and from first hand knowledge, bad things happen there. Bad things happen when drugs are involved, and worse things happen when the drugs run out.
It appears that a father and son were able to go undetected for decades as they picked and preyed on vulnerable women. Mothers, daughters, sisters. At an alarming rate. The father Raymond Horsch? Google his book he wrote. And then google the films he “directed”.
His son, someone who also suffers from substance abuse, seemingly using his crutch as a lure of sorts. Reeling in the most vulnerable of women. Now I can’t say for certain how long this has been occurring, but what I can say is it seems as though it’s been decades. Why would a man posing as a DEA agent give a woman an ID if a missing persons knowingly? There are so many questions it’s hard to tell where to start.
Please, if you have any information about concerns, past history, encounters, friendships, anything.. please reach out. You can do it anonymously. I have spoken to some NBC Philadelphia investigators and hope to lend as much as a hand as I possibly can.
There will always be evil in this world, but there would be far less if we decided to fight back as a community. Please, if you see this share it. Someone knows something or someone. The thing about substance abuse, is often times at that level, they stick together. Don’t be afraid. I think it’s time Philadelphia became the great city it once was.
Please reach out for more information. I can provide further contact information. I will not stop until we get the answers we need. And may the souls of those women rest in peace.

Why are serial killers so fascinating?
I admit, I'm guilty of the fascination too, but I'm curious to try to understand why. Is it because they are so evil that it fascinates us that someone could actually commit these acts? Do we try to understand what they were thinking and feeling, wondering if would could have been like them in different circumstances? The morbid fascination extends to the victims too. The fascination that they were at the wrong place at the wrong time. Could we have been victims in different circumstances? Curious to hear your thoughts as to why they are so fascinating.
