You forgot the Bender Family who also lived in Kansas.

Not the same as Raider but still a pretty brutal killer “family”.

I’ll take the bender family and raise you the Car bothers. What’s interesting about the Midwest is that the citizens here think nothing so abominable could happen here. Then when perverse personality’s commit such atrocities, the masses are shocked. But horror can happen anywhere at anytime…

As a serial killer/cult/true crime fanatic for 24 years, it’s amazing how often you hear “they don’t look like a serial killer” and what does a serial killer look like? Seriously.

Have you ever seen Murder Comes to Town? It’s a show on investigation discovery about murder in small town usa. It’s a good show.

Exactly, just like Hannibal Lecter, although I know it’s fiction, but he was an esteem doctor and artist, but also a blood sucking murder who ate human flesh! When both dualities of beauty and horror come together in human beings fellow man becomes stunned by another’s acts, but also become deeply fanatical about atrocity. (Read JG Ballards novel “crash” and you’ll know what I mean).

You’re looking for someone like Dr Harold Shipman. It’s believed he killed over 200 people. He’s an English case but there’s other cases of “angels of death” (not including Josef Mengle)
