During the early 1970s in Rochester, NY there was a string of bizarre murders. The thing that made these murders bizarre was the way the murderer chose the victim.

Each victim had ‘double initials’ and were murdered in a city thats name started with that same letter. Hence the ‘Alphabet Murderer’.

Here is the list of victims w/ corresponding city:

Carmen Colon - Churchville
Wanda Walkowicz - Webster
Michelle Maenza - Macedon

The Killer was never caught but has been suspected to be linked to the Kenneth Biachi AKA ‘Hillside Strangler’ murders.

A movie entitled ‘the Alphabet Killer‘ was released this year.

Henry Louis Wallace was arrested on Feb. 4, 1994, in Charlotte, N.C. by this time he had already raped and murdered five young women.

Henry’s motivator was ‘Crack Cocaine’. Making note of that you will not be surprised to learn that each of his victims worked with him at Taco Bell or with his girlfriend at Bojangles. Uncaringly overlooked by investigators, Wallace’s name had been written into the address books of several of his victims.

The Bloody Benders were a family of serial killers who owned a small general store and inn in Labette County, Kansas from 1872 to 1873. The family consisted of John Bender, his wife, son, and daughter Kate. They say, Kate was very attractive and outgoing, and thus became a large draw for the Benders’ establishment. She proclaimed herself to be a healer and psychic who could cure sickness and contact the dead. Kate is believed to be the driving force behind the Bender family killings. Now thats some GOOOOD healin’ if ya ask me!

Now if you’ve been paying attention to ‘da media’ or horror movies in general you might see that this ‘type of family’ has been written and re-written in films such as - ‘American Gothic’, Tales from the Crypt (the one starring Tim Curry, he plays all roles too, Mom Dad and even da’Daughter!), House of 1000 Corpses and quite a few I can’t remember at this moment. Those crazy holly(magicalwooden) people and their silly fascinations with dead people!
