Dark Forces
Demon Choronzon And Prayer Group Had Something In Common
In 2003 when a World Prayer Team network sent out a call for a world moment of Christian prayer in support of President George W. Bush and the planned war against Iraq, I was amused at the time set for this event. The prayer was set for 3 p.m. on March 3, 2003. The Christians chose to pray at 3-3-03. My amusement was based on my knowledge of esoteric matters. I recognized the number 333 as an occult symbol for Choronzon, the dreaded demon of chaos.

Humans Are Their Own Worst Enemy
A friend recently e-mailed the following. The little story line, while funny, also points to a flaw that is taking us down the deadly road we have been traveling for far too long:
"In the beginning God populated the earth with broccoli and cauliflower and spinach, green and yellow and red vegetables of all kinds, so man and woman would live long and healthy lives. Then using Gods great gifts, Satan created Ben and Jerrys and Krispy Kreme. And Satan said, You want chocolate with that? And man said Yea. And woman said, And another one with sprinkles. And they gained 10 pounds.

Lanzer
Modern Psychology; The Attack On Our Brains
"Me thinks the whole world is crazy except me and thee; and sometimes I wonder about thee." – Old Quaker saying.
All of the talk about getting improved psychiatric help for "disturbed" people like Adam Lanzer, the youth who caused the massacre of a school near Sandy Hook, is pushing the American mindset into dangerous territory. If the field of psychology ever had any merit, it has been buried under contemporary drives by big business and certain branches of our government to control the minds of the masses and make a lot of money doing it.

Black Witchcraft Is A Real Force
A recent story in a Puerto Rico newspaper about a local judge and his court confrontation with a black witch reminded me of the time we met a powerful practitioner of voodoo magic in Savannah, Georgia. The Puerto Rico witch was caught putting an unidentified substance on the chair, bench and microphone used by Superior Court Judge Juan T. Lizama before court was in session. When questioned, she admitted pouring “medicine” on the judge’s seat so he would feel sorry for a client that was facing five traffic charges including drunk driving and reckless driving.

Why Have So Many Humans Worshiped Bael?
Ancient historical records indicate that Bael, the first principal spirit listed in the Goetia, has been the subject of human worship for thousands of years. The Hebrews were admonished in the Old Testament for turning away from Jehova and bowing down to Bael. The Sumerians worshiped several gods, including Marduk, another name for Bael, also spelled Baal. The Canaanites and Amorites also worshiped Bael. Some believe the Egyptian god Osiris was none other than Bael in disguise. We suspect that this spirit, who seems to have escaped Solomon's bindings even though he is named among the 72 Spirits of the Goetia, may still have bands of secret worshipers bowing to him in clandestine places.

Who Are The Watchers?
Among the unexplained mysteries in our house was my late wife’s ability to communicate freely with various entities from beyond the veil. They have gone by many names, some claimed to be archangels, others simply called themselves “beings” or “entities” from the other side. We have the sense that something, or some organization of aliens, or perhaps a secret counsel of superior beings, is sitting in judgment over all that occurs on this planet. While some would like to think of this entity as God, we sense that it is something very different, yet possessing a chilling power over our future.

Haunted Houses Are Everywhere
The new rage among realtors in selling haunted houses may seem peculiar. But in this new somewhat insane world, people are demanding strange and exotic things. Why wouldn’t they be interested in owning and sharing a house with spirits of the past? What surprises me is that buyers are being goaded into paying extra to purchase a home with ghosts. In my years of reporting and because of the hobby my wife and I shared, of buying and restoring old homes, I can report from personal experience that most older homes are very likely haunted.

Is An Alien Race Controlling Our World?
“The whole world is suffering with unhappy souls, the French hate the Germans and the Germans hate the Poles. The Poles hate the Yugoslav’s, the Yugoslav’s hate the Dutch. And I don’t like anybody very much.” –Kingston Trio
This will be the first of a series of articles in which we lay out a hypothesis suggesting that humans have been not only manipulated but possessed by an alien race of beings, perhaps for as long as there has been recorded history. There has always been racial, religious and political bigotry in the world, but rarely has it been as severe as it appears today. And during an age when new technologies have opened communications with people everywhere, and high speed travel makes it possible for world leaders to have regular face-to-face dialogue, such polarization doesn’t seem to make sense.

Drunvalo Melchizedek
World History As Revealed From Beyond The Veil
“And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die, for God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.. . And she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her, and he did eat. And the eyes of them both were opened.” Genesis 3:4-7
Before exploring the Mer-Ka-Ba and its impact on the Martians and later the human race, we will take an interesting look into a study of what some believe might have been the very ancient history of mankind on this planet. Drunvalo Melchizedek, an author and spiritual teacher living in Sedona, Arizona, claims that he has been in communication with two angels who have given him visions and an understanding of what happened on Earth in the distant past.

Navajo Skinwalkers and Shape Shifters
An article by Clyde Klukhohn involving Navajo witchcraft brought to mind our personal experiences with the Navajo during the winter in 1996 when my wife and I lived with a medicine man and his wife near the Four Corners. Klukhohn notes that the Navajo who practice skinwalking and shape shifting are using a form of black witchcraft that is unique to the Navajo. He said it has no resemblance to the “European variety” of black magic practiced among the witches.

Devil Dog Stories Prevail In Real Life
There is something about the stories of "devil dogs" running at large in the forests that have a way of sending that proverbial chill up our spines. While few of us have ever seen such things, the stories are frightening because we all know that wild dogs can kill. There is, indeed, something eerily frightening about the very image of a pack of wild, black dogs charging at us. Imagine, too, that such animals have red glowing eyes, smoke and flame spewing from their mouths as they bound in our direction. Dogs can outrun any man, they will attack creatures much larger than they are, and they instinctively know how to go for the throat with their fangs and tear out the jugular. Dogs are both quick and powerful when they attack.

The Barbaric Act Of Execution
We wince at the very thought of some criminal in some far-away prison being “legally” put to death following conviction for crimes he or she may or may not have committed. We also find ourselves turning away from pictures of captured people in foreign lands being lined up before firing squads, or being beheaded at the blade of a sharp sword. It is easy to rationalize when we see or hear of such things. We want to believe the person just put to death probably deserved his fate . . . that we are glad not to be in that person’s shoes. But what do we accomplish when we kill the killer? Does the hangman ever sleep at night?

Pol Pot – Cambodia’s Deadly Despot
He was born Saloth Sar but known to the world as Pol Pot, one of the most malicious killers that ever lived during the four years he served as Prime Minister of Cambodia and leader of the Khmer Rouge. He is the only person in history known to have ordered genocide against an entire nation and he ended up killing an estimated 3 million Cambodians.

Tower Killer Charles Whitman
Among the names that have gone down in infamy is that of Charles Whitman, a trained marine sniper who on August 1, 1966, murdered his mother and wife in their Austin, Texas homes, then carried various weapons to the top of the University of Texas tower, killing three people on the way. Once at the top he went on a 20-minute shooting rampage, killing nine students and wounding 30 others before he was gunned down by police. Mass shootings have become so common now that the Whitman story seems inconsequential. Yet before the Virginia Tech shootings in 2007, the Whitman mass killing was the deadliest in U. S. history. The act was so shocking to the nation that few Americans who were around in 1966 have forgotten his name and what he did.

Bath School Killer Andrew Kehoe
Long before the insanity of school shootings became common throughout the United States, Andrew Kehoe, a Bath, Michigan school board member went on a killing rampage and committed the worst mass school murder in the nation’s history. He blew up the school and went on a killing spree that left 38 elementary school children and six adults dead, and another 58 persons insured on May 18, 1927.

Black Witchcraft Is A Real Force
My wife and I came face to face with a powerful black witch when we attended a wedding in Savannah several years ago. This woman, who sang a Christian hymn as part of the wedding ceremony, was a regular singer for a popular television evangelist at that time. She was gifted with a beautiful voice. Typical of powerful gospel singers, this lady was a big and hefty. She looked at you with sharp, imposing eyes. We were privately told that she was a powerful practitioner of voodoo magic. Needless to say, that we did not see proof of her powers made us happy at the time. We were told, however, that the Savannah witch had the power to make people sick and even kill them. Her potions were known to affect people in a variety of magical ways.

The Great Santa Claus Myth
The image of Santa Claus is strongly associated with the bane that a rebellious branch of society and some fundamental Christians have dubbed the “commercialization of Christmas.” But the figure as we know it stems from ancient and spooky mythology that has its origins before the birth of Jesus. Among the oldest stories of a night visitor during the month of December seems to be that of the Krampus, an evil incubus or demon that comes to punish bad children. The very name of this demon is from Old High German and it means “claw.”

The Wicked Nature of Men
In all of the stories found in the Old Testament, the tale of the traveler and his concubine found in Judges 19 has been the most troubling to understand. It involves an unnamed man who found himself in the town of Gibeah, occupied by the ostracized Tribe of Benjamin at nightfall. He accepted the invitation of an elderly occupant of Gibeah to spend the night safely under his roof. That night a group of men came to the door and demanded to have the traveler come out of the house so they could have sex with him. The old man considered this to be a poor way to treat his guest. He offered up his virgin daughter to the men instead. When she was rejected he offered him his guest’s concubine and the gang agreed. They ravaged this woman throughout the night, leaving her bleeding and dying at the door the following morning. When he found her the traveler chopped her body into twelve pieces and send the body parts to each of the twelve tribes of Israel.

Another Vision Of The Creature Under The Vatican
After our recent posting of the Abba Father description of a powerful lizard-like creature lying chained in catacombs deep under the Vatican, we received an interesting link to a series of books and articles by the late author Stewart Wilde, who also described a personal vision of such a creature. Wilde’s article went even farther. He gave not only a frightening description of how he perceived this entity, but also described visions of the Vatican crumbling to ruin. In his report he said he could not determine if this symbolized a literal event that is yet to happen, or a symbolic picture of the collapse of the church.

Revelation of the Beast
The crux of the story is that there is a great beast, or dragon-type of a creature that lays chained and asleep deep in the catacombs under the Vatican. This creature is so mentally powerful that it controls all world governments and financial institutions. This beast, which has been on our planet for thousands of years, is the real force behind all of the wars, chaos and troubles that have made this planet in constant discord and in an unbalanced state throughout known human history and beyond.

The Evil Twin
There has been an old Hollywood film theme involving identical twins with one turning evil. It is as if they are a mirror image of themselves. In the films it always makes a great surprise ending in a mystery plot. But does this occur in real life? I have personally known identical twins and have watched the mental and spiritual connections they exhibit. Can one twin reflect the dark side of the other?

Are We Pawns In a Matrix After All?
The Trump call for a creation of a sixth branch of our military that will be known as the Space Corps may be part of a complex hoax that has been going on in the United States for the past 80 years. This revelation was revealed in a year 2000 report by American space weapons expert Dr. Carol Rosin that appeared in Nexus Magazine. Rosin said she was given this information during a lengthy interview with Wernher Von Braun, the father of rocket technology and space science in the United States. She said she worked with Von Braun during the final years of Von Braun’s life in the 1970’s.

Are Vampires Stealing Your Energy?
We all live among the energy vampires but few of us know it, unless we happen to be living among a nest of them. My wife and I found ourselves getting drained of energy when we lived for a time in one specific community. That was when we learned not only that such people exist, but we found a way to shield ourselves against their daily assaults. People who drain your energy are not evil. They don’t look like the Hollywood stereotype vampire, they don’t drain our blood and they don’t prowl at night. What they do . . . and sometimes they may not even realize they are doing it . . . is that they have a strange way of sucking away our energy when we get too close. I believe some of them do it on purpose.

Hitler; The Most Abhorrent Name
Since World War II, the very name of Adolf Hitler stirs revulsion in the hearts of every person who lived through that period of dark history. While Adolf was a popular first name for boys prior to the war, it is rarely used today. France and Norway went so far as to outlaw the name. Because he inflamed Germany into launching one of the most destructive wars in history, Hitler is remembered as the most evil person who ever lived. The Nazi regime under his leadership brought about the genocide of an estimated 5.5 million Jews and millions of other nationalities including Romanians and Poles. Hitler and his followers saw these people as racially inferior. The German army also slaughtered an estimated 19.3 million civilians and prisoners of war, plus an estimated 29 million soldiers.

Reinhard Heydrich – Hitler’s Executioner
Most people have never heard of Reinhard Heydrich. This may be because he was died early in World War II from injuries sustained in an attempted assassination by Czech agents. But this man lived long enough to bring about the deaths of millions. Among his war crimes, Heydrich, who was the second highest ranking officer in the SS, thought up the pretext to invade Poland and launch the war, and he drafted Hitler’s "Final Solution," a Nazi attempt to exterminate the entire Jewish population of Europe.

Genghis Khan; Mongolian Killer of Millions
There is perhaps irony in the fact that Genghis Khan, the worst known mass killer in the known history of the world set the stage for the first “great awakening;” a period of great spiritual, mental and social development in what became the first great world empire.
He had to build an army and slaughter between 20 and 60 million people, about a third of the known world population of that time, to accomplish it.

Armenian Killer Talaat Pasha
When we use the word genocide we tend to think of the Nazi slaughter of the Jews during World War II, but there was another earlier European genocide . . . this one of the Armenian people . . . during the reign of Talaat Pasha, the Grand Vizier of the Sultan in the Ottoman Empire, from 1917 to 1918. While serving as the Interior Minister in April, 1915, Talaat, a Moslim, ordered the arrest and deportation of Armenian intellectuals in Constantinople. He also ordered a Temporary Deportation Law that spring that initiated what became the Armenian Genocide. He is considered the main perpetrator of the mass killing of two million Armenians, Greeks and Assyrians during his brief time in power.

He also ordered a Temporary Deportation Law that spring that initiated what became the Armenian Genocide. He is considered the main perpetrator of the mass killing of two million Armenians, Greeks and Assyrians during his brief time in power.
Stalin: The Ruthless Killer
The world thinks of Hitler as perhaps the worst mass killer of all time, yet ignores the fact that Germany’s arch enemy during the war years, Joseph Stalin, probably surpassed Hitler’s killings by the millions. Nobody knows the true number, but estimates stand at about 40 million deaths. He even introduced his own "Final Solution" against the Jews which led to the execution of hundreds of thousands of Russian Jews. Hitler’s final death count has been calculated at 30 million. Because Russia became an ally of the forces battling against Hitler and the Axis powers in that war, historians have tended to overlook Stalin’s ruthlessness.

Ivan The Terrible
Crowned as the first tsar of Russia, Ivan IV, the grandson of Ivan the Great, has been called one of the most evil men that ever lived. After beginning his rule at the age of just 16, Ivan ruled the largest nation on Earth from 1547 to 1584. While Ivan’s reign was marked with much achievement, he fell into a form of insanity during his later years during which he ordered the brutal murder of thousands, including children and animals. Given the nickname "Ivan The Terrible," the man ruled with what was described as a "deep-seated paranoia and ruthlessness." He was brutal in the way he killed, having his victims strangled, beheaded, blinded, stabbed, hung, buried alive, boiled and fried. It is said he even pulled out people’s ribs with red hot pinchers.

King Leopold II; Slaughter Of 10 Million Africans
During his bloody reign as King of Belgian, between 1865 and his death 44 years later, King Leopold II literally purchased the Congo then ruled the Congolese with an iron fist, becoming among the richest men in the world by forcing the harvest of ivory and rubber. Leopold used the noted explorer Henry Morton Stanley to help him become the sole owner of what was known as the Congo Free State. Like the European traders who "bought" territories from the Native Americans for trinkets, the Congolese tribal chiefs, equally illiterate, unwittingly sold their territory and tribe members into a lifetime of slavery for pieces of cloth.

The Infamous Roman Caligula
Among the worst rulers to have existed during the Roman Empire was the man they called Caligula. In the four years that he was in power Gaius Caesar (his real name) was responsible for the murder of an undetermined number of political enemies, was married to four different women, a cross dresser and a psychotic who enjoyed chewing on the testicles of his victims. He forced families to come to the court to watch as their relatives were murdered.

Zimbabwe’s Mugabe; Mass Killer Of Thousands
Robert Mugabe was the late president of Zimbabwe, Africa. He held high office in that country since elected as prime minister in 1980 then President from 1987 until retiring in 2017. His history as a Zimbabwean revolutionary included the "ethnic cleansing" of over 20,000 members of the Ndebele tribe between 1982 and 1985. In spite of his terrible deeds, Mugabe is generally considered a hero among the people of Zimbabwe. This is because he fought in the Rhodesian Bush War against the conservative white minority government in Rhodesia.

Bloody Mary Of England
During her brief five-year reign, from 1553 to 1558, Queen Mary I restored Catholicism to England after her father, King Henry VIII battled with the Vatican and eventually declared himself head of the Church of England. Queen Mary executed so many Protestants during that brief reign that she earned the nickname "Bloody Mary." She clamped down so hard on Protestantism that hundreds of thousands of Protestants were forced to flee England.

The Sadistic Elizabeth Bathory
Because she was born into royalty and wealth, Countess Elizabeth Bathory succeeded in getting away with high crimes of torture and murder for much of her life in Transylvania. Some people even thought of her as the first vampire in history. Bathory was born in 1560 in a family linked with kings, cardinals, knights and judges. But her linage did not erase her interest in the dark arts. By the time she married Count Nadasdy at the age of 15, she had been a student in sadomasochism and Satanism. When they moved into Csejthe Castle, the count built a special torture chamber for Bathory’s pleasure.

Pinochet: Strongman Of Chile
General Augusto Pinochet took command of the government of Chile when he staged a coup in 1973, throwing socialist Salvador Allende out of office. His years of power, from 1973 to 1990 were marked by inflation, extreme poverty and the ruthless murder and repression of opposition leaders. Pinochet also was involved in Operation Condor, a cooperative movement by several South American governments to dispose of leftist opposition leaders. The number of people who died at the hand of Pinochet was estimated in the thousands.

Truman A-Bombed Japan
Of all the mass killers chosen for this site, the selection of President Harry S. Truman has been among the hardest for us to post. Because of President Roosevelt’s death in office, Truman inherited the final months of World War II which included the fierce combat occurring between Allied forces and the Japanese. He also inherited the atomic bomb which was given to him as a weapon of war during those key months leading up to the end of that war. Thus it became his decision whether to use the bomb on the Japanese people or not. Truman ordered the bombings. They incinerated the two cities, killing thousands of civilian men, women and children where they stood. Thousands more were left crippled and mutilated. The casualty count in the two cities has been estimated at over 200,000 people.

Attila The Hun
Attila was the First Century leader of a nomadic barbarian people known as the Huns. He was the feared ruler of what was known as the Hunnic Empire from the year 434 until his death in 453. During those brief years his army held territory stretching from the Ural River to the Rhine River and from the Danube River to the Baltic Sea. Details of his life and just who Attila was are fragmented, and are found in the writings of about three major Sixth Century historians; Priscus, Procopius and Jordanes. From those sketchy writings we know that Attila and his warriors ravaged the countryside on horseback, plundering everything as they invaded territories into Eastern Europe and south into the Roman Empire. To some he was known as Attila the Hun. To others he was the Scourge of God.

Iraq’s Bloody Dictator Saddam Hussein
It has been estimated that Saddam Hussein was responsible for the deaths of 2 million Iraqis during his reign of power from 1979 to 2003. The numbers, which include the civilians in both Iraq and Iran killed during the eight years of war that went on between those two countries, and the Iraq invasion of Kuwait may have been much higher.

Columbus – World Navigator, Slaver And Mass Killer
For years the American history books gave Christopher Columbus the credit of "discovering America" and proclaimed him to be a hero for daring to sail his frail craft across the Atlantic when European scholars believed the world was flat. They even named cities and highways and created a national holiday in his name. But now that the real story of what Columbus did, and how he treated the natives he found on the various Caribbean Islands, the truth has thrown a pall of shame over the very name.

Andrew Jackson’s Trails of Tears
Looking back in American history, no one can say President Andrew Jackson was the sole instigator of the Indian Removal Act and its deadly effect on the five Native American tribes living in the Southeastern Territories, but his name was clearly inscribed on the branding iron. The Indian Removal Act of 1830 and the forced relocation of an estimated 125,000 Choctaw, Chickasaw, Seminole, Creek and Cherokee people from their homes in Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, North Carolina and Florida to "Indian Territory" west of the Mississippi, now known as the State of Oklahoma, is a dark and bloody blot in the nation’s history.

Albert Kligman’s Agent Orange Experiments
When he died in 2010 Dr. Albert Kligman was lauded in obituary accounts as a dermatologist who co-invented the acne medication, Retin-A. But the former prisoners at Philadelphia’s Holmesburg Prison and their families remember him as the evil scientist who injected them with dioxin, the main ingredient in Agent Orange, to study the effect the chemical had on their bodies, and many other chemicals. The prisoners selected for the dioxin experiment were mostly black men, all of them objects of the experiment funded by Dow Chemical, Johnson & Johnson and the U. S. Army. The experiments were conducted between 1965 and 1966. The prisoners were injected with massive doses of dioxin, and the results were horrible. The subjects suffered from severe acne, blackheads, cysts, pustules and other outbreaks on the face, armpits and groin. They continued to suffer from the effects of the chemical for years afterward.

Black Widow Belle Gunness
Belle Gunness, believed to have killed two husbands, six children and an estimated 40 to 180 potential suitors between 1884 and 1908, has remained one of America’s great unsolved mysteries. She is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as among the worst female serial killers in history. After a fatal fire that destroyed her farm home near La Porte, Indiana in 1908, Belle absconded with about a quarter of a million dollars from insurance payments and her victims, and was never caught.

English Serial Killer Mary Ann Cotton
Among the annuals of the world’s most evil people lies the name of Mary Ann Cotton, an English woman who was hung in 1873 after being found guilty of poisoning three husbands, two lovers, her mother, at least eight of her own children and probably more than the 21 known other victims. She holds the distinction of being the world’s first known serial killer. Her motive? Cotton apparently did it for insurance money. Many of the children may have been killed just because they were a personal burden. It was said she killed them all with arsenic.

Australian Terror Katherine Mary Knight
A twin born out of wedlock, Katherine Mary Knight was a relatively good student but she displayed a fierce temper that threw her into murderous rages. She assaulted at least one boy and a teacher before dropping out of school at the age of 15. Research into Knight’s life revealed that she and her mother had both been sexually abused regularly by family members during the years she was growing up. Knight’s mother’s open affairs with co-workers Jack Roughan and Ken Knight was a scandal in the town of Moree, where they lived. She began the first of a series of violent affairs with men when she married co-worker David Kellett in 1974.

"Big Ed" Kemper The Coed Killer
When Edmund Kemper called the police in Santa Cruz, California in April, 1973 and confessed to being the infamous "Coed Killer" officers who knew him well had a hard time believing his story. Kemper, who was affectionately known to the local police as "Big Ed," was closely associated with the Santa Cruz police department. Having been turned down as a candidate for the California State Police because of his massive size, he spent time hanging around the local police department. At the same time, Kemper was picking up college girls from Fresno State College and taking them on one-way rides into rural areas where he was shooting, strangling and stabbing them, having sex with their bodies and then cutting the corpses into pieces.

Osama bin Laden; Islamic Terrorist
Even though many conspiracy theorists dispute it, Osama bin Laden publically claimed in a video-taped message in 2004 that he and his Islamic terrorist organization al-Qaeda were responsible for the 9-11 attacks on the United States in 2001 that killed an estimated 3,000 civilians. Bin Laden was, for several years, declared public enemy number one on the FBI’s Most Wanted list. Former President George W. Bush made him a major target in his declared "War on Terror" and the FBI placed a $25 million bounty on him. He was reportedly shot and killed at the age of 54 by a U.S. Naval Special Warfare Development Group and Central Intelligence Agency commandos in Pakistan on May 2, 2011.

Enriqueta Marti; Child Killer Of Barcelona
Enrigueta Marti was born in Sant Feliu de Llobregat, Spain, sometime before the turn of the century. As a young girl she moved to Barcelona where she worked as a maidservant and nanny before discovering that prostitution was a more lucrative business. It was in this environment that Enrigueta Marti found her niche for gaining wealth and social status in what many called the "city of death." It was said that she lived a double life. By day she dressed as a beggar, literally begging for charity on the streets and seeking out abandoned children. She took in the children, at first prostituting them, and later murdering them.

David Berkowitz; Son of Sam
Even though it happened nearly 44 years ago, during the summer of 1976 and spilling over into 1977, residents of New York still vividly remember the fear-filled days when the serial killer known as "Son of Sam" was randomly shooting people without cause. While the manhunt was going on, the media first dubbed him the ".44 Caliber Killer" because he was using a .44 caliber revolver to shoot his victims. Before it was over, six New Yorkers were murdered and seven others seriously injured. The killer, David Berkowitz, achieved the nickname "Son of Sam" because of mocking letters he sent to the police, daring them to catch him and promising further killings. He claimed to be obeying the orders of a demon, manifested in a dog named Harvey and owned by a man named Sam.

Vlad Dracula – "The Impailer"
There really was a man named Dracula. Forget the Hollywood version though. He wasn’t a vampire but his evil deeds in his native Transylvania were the inspiration for the contemporary vampire stories. It was rumored that Vlad Dracula sometimes drank the blood of the people he killed. He earned a nickname as "Vlad the Impaler" because impalement was his favorite way of murdering people. He would have a horse attached to each of his victim’s legs and a dull stake forced up through the body, from the anus to the mouth. It was probably the most painful type of death because the victims didn’t die right away. They sometimes suffered for hours and even days. If the stories were true, Vlad Dracula was perhaps the most twisted and wicked person who ever lived.

Eugene Saenger – He Radiated Innocent Victims
When he died at the age of 90 in 2007, Dr. Eugene Saenger was lauded by the American media as a "pioneer in radiation research and nuclear medicine" and his 30-plus years as a professor at the University of Cincinnati. His accolades stemmed around Saenger’s government financed experiments with unwitting patients with radiation poisoning during the Cold War years. Between 1960 and 1971, after the development of the atomic bomb, the U. S. military wanted to find out how much radiation a human body could take, and whether the world could survive a nuclear catastrophe. Saenger, who headed the top-secret experiment, chose 88 cancer patients, all of them poor and most of them black, as his subjects. These people were told the testing might help them even though everyone in the medical profession knew even then that radiation exposure was not a valid treatment for cancer.

Wendell Johnson’s "Monster Study"
It was back in 1939 that Wendell Johnson, a professor at the University of Iowa, chose a graduate student, Mary Tudor, to assist in conducting a "stuttering" experiment on 22 orphan children in Davenport, Iowa. The experiment was so radical, and produced such terrible results, it became known as The Monster Study. Under Johnson’s direction, the children were divided into two groups, one was the experimental group and the other was a control group. Ten of the children in the study suffered from speech problems or stuttered at the beginning of the experiment. During the study, one group of children was given instruction and praise for the fluency of their speech. The other half of the children were given negative speech therapy. These children were belittled for every imperfection that showed up in their speaking ability. They all were told that they were stutterers. The experiment was a disaster for all of the children involved.

Oliver Wenger’s Syphilis "Experiment" On Black Men
It was called the Tuskegee Study and it was conducted by the venereal disease section of the U.S. Public Health Service for 40 terrible years, between 1932 and 1972. It bears the name of Tuskegee University, a well-known black college in Alabama, which helped sponsor this wicked study. It involved a team of researchers who watched the natural progression of untreated syphilis in rural African American men who were tricked into thinking they were receiving free health care from their government. The project quickly got out of control. Health Services Director Dr. Teliaferro Clark resigned after he learned that other participating medical people had no intention of ever treating the men who signed up for the study. Oliver C. Wenger, then director of the Health Service’s Venereal Disease Clinic at Hot Springs, Arkansas, replaced Clark as director of the Tuskegee Study and turned it into a long-term, no-treatment torture center for the illiterate blacks who thought they were getting free government help.

In the 1980s a gang of crack cocaine dealers emerged among a Mexican immigrant family headed by Maria "La Chata" Leon in a Los Angeles housing project located on Drew Street. The Drew Street gang, comprised mostly of Leon and her children, soon expanded their operations from drugs into extortion, gun trafficking and the smuggling of illegal immigrants who worked off their debt to the gang by selling crack. It developed into a deadly and malicious gang operation, considered one of the most notorious to have ever existed in L.A. Crime reporter Christine Pelisek once described the enterprise: "Maria Leon sat like the queen spider in a web spun across the border from north to south – head of a massive criminal enterprise of drug-dealing and murder."

John Cutler’s Guatemala Syphilis "Experiments"
There was an extension to the infamous Tuskegee syphilis experiments on black men that has yet to be told. It seems that while Oliver Wenger’s team was torturing male syphilis victims at Tuskegee University in Alabama, Dr. John Cutler was doing the same thing in Guatemala. There Cutler and his own team of U.S. Health Department workers "experimented" between 1946 and 1948 on an estimated 1,500 prison inmates, mental patients and soldiers who had no knowledge of what was being done to them.

Dr. Aubrey Levin: Castrator Of Homosexuals
During the apartheid-era years, between 1971 and 1989, homosexual soldiers in the South African military were cleverly "flushed out" from the other troops and sent to Ward 22 in a military hospital at Pretoria for forced sexual reassignment. Levin served as a Colonel in the South African Defence Force (SADF) and chief psychiatrist at the Voortrekkerhoogte military hospital. He was the attending psychiatrist at Greefswald, an isolated detention barracks where gay soldiers were supposed to have been "cured" of their vices. Levin became notorious as an "aversion therapist" that attempted to cure both gays and lesbians of homosexuality. Between 1971 and 1989 an estimated 900 drafted young men and women were subjected to chemical castrations and electric shock treatment. Men were surgically turned into women against their will and then cast out into the world without receiving help for dealing with their new sexual identities.

The Beast of Columbia: Luis Garavito
Luis Alfredo Garavito of Genova, Colombia, has probably earned the title of worst serial killer in history even if local authorities never finish identifying his victims. He has admitted to the rape, torture and murder of 147 boys, police have confirmed 138 killings, and if the maps of locations of their remains drawn from his prison cell are correct, the number may total more than 300. Police say that between 1992 and 1999, Garavito killed more than 200 young boys between the age of 8 and 13. The oldest of his victims was 16. Nearly all of them were homeless street children who were easy targets. According to reports, Garavito would lure his chosen targets into secluded places with promises of money for some easy work, or some other enticement, like drugs. Once he was alone with them, he tied up his victims, tortured and raped them, and then sliced their necks. Sometimes he went so far as to decapitate them. They were all buried in shallow graves.
