8 People That Seemed Innocent That Were Actually Monsters

4. Tamara Samsonova

  • Don’t let her looks deceive you; this old Russian lady is straight up no good. 68 year old Tamara Samsonova’s first victim was her husband, who she reported missing a decade before her arrest.
  • Police believe her victim count is 10 at least. Her MO was to drug her victims and then hack them up. It’s not known when she started eating them though. Her bizarre journal details how she loves eating the lungs of her victims. Maybe they took her breath away, so she returned the favour. Tamara was finally caught when CCTV footage showed her ferrying around a giant stew pot that had the victim’s head in it.
  • So when a little, old Russian woman offers you stew, you say hell to the no. Actually maybe that’s too harsh, Cannibals are people too, but they’re also fed up with people. Get it? Fed up. Oh that’s terrible, who writes this stuff?

3. Amelia Dyer

1

  • Amelia Dyer convinced a horde of single mothers that she was a homely motherly type that couldn’t have children, but was just dying to adopt.
  • Because being a single mother was a social no-no in the 1800s, lots of nurses made an easy living by finding adoptive families for babes of unwed mothers. But then a bunch of them figured out they could make even more money if they didn’t bother to feed the babies, or find homes for them at all.
  • In the early years Amelia would let the babies die by starvation and neglect. It wasn’t until later that she graduated to full blown baby-murder. Throughout her career it’s estimated Amelia killed as many as 400 infants. She pleaded insanity but was found sane and super evil. The little old lady was hanged for her crimes in 1896.

2. Donald Harvey

  • Yet another medical practitioner in the list is Donald Harvey, former nurse and all around not-so-nice guy.
  • Donald says he started offing patients to ease their pain, then it became just because they pissed him off. After the first few victims, he discovered how easy it was to kill indiscriminately without drawing attention to himself, or arousing suspicion because the patients were already unwell. The more they annoyed him the more sadistic he would be. One victim got a coat hanger in his catheter. Youch…
  • Some victims were smothered, but most were poisoned with arsenic or cyanide in their food or IV. Donald claims to have murdered 87 people, but police could only confirm it was anywhere between 37 and 87 but they’ll never know the true extent of his crimes because he went undetected for so long. He eventually pleaded guilty to avoid the death sentence and will be in prison the rest of his life.
  1. Ted Bundy

1

  • When one young man was arrested, his friends and co-workers all assumed it was some huge mistake.
  • In school teachers loved him; he was charming, well behaved and courteous. He wore slacks and collared shirts, sometimes with a tie, when his fellow students were rocking jeans and t-shirts. This guy was going places. This was Ted Bundy; Serial killer, necrophiliac extraordinaire that brutally murdered more than 30 women.
  • While studying psychology he worked at a suicide hotline convincing people not to kill themselves and he even saved a toddler from drowning. When Bundy’s name came up as a possible suspect, police ruled him out straight away; “a clean-cut, all American student, no way.” But this clean-cut committing 30 murders but admitted there were more.
