50 Facts About Serial Killers That Are Creepy AF

By Thought Catalog Updated January 12, 2024

14. I find it interesting that apparently the BTK-killer installed alarms at several people houses because of their fear of the BTK-killer.

15. Ted Bundy worked at a suicide hotline center with author Ann Rule.

16. H. H. Holmes. He literally built a murder castle.

The book “The Devil in the White City” is about him. Also, there’s apparently a series in works about it from Hulu.

He confessed to 27 murders, though it could have been higher. Authorities say it may “only” have been nine.

How this guy is rarely mentioned boggles my mind. He built just to be able to torture and kill.

Trace the scars life has left you. It will remind you that at one point, you fought for something. You believed.

“You are the only person who gets to decide if you are happy or not—do not put your happiness into the hands of other people. Do not make it contingent on their acceptance of you or their feelings for you. At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter if someone dislikes you or if someone doesn’t want to be with you. All that matters is that you are happy with the person you are becoming. All that matters is that you like yourself, that you are proud of what you are putting out into the world. You are in charge of your joy, of your worth. You get to be your own validation. Please don’t ever forget that.” — Bianca Sparacino
