1. Ted Bundy

Ted Bundy’s MO evolved and got more organised over time. Early on, it comprised of late-night forcible entry then he attacked the victim with a blunt object. Some of the victims were sexually assaulted. Over time, this merciless killer started deploying multiple ruses to lure his victims to his vehicle where he would hit them with a weapon, usually a crowbar.

2. Jeffrey Dahmer

Dahmer or as he was called, the ‘Milwaukee Cannibal’, killed and sexually assaulted men he would pick up from gay bars. He would lure his victims with the promise of money or sex, photographed them, and drugged their drinks. In his interview, he confessed that he would sometimes feel guilty for killing these people. His motivation was to find the perfect partner in a ‘zombie sex slave’.

He drilled holes in their brains and injected them with hydrochloric acid. But his experiments always failed. In order to get rid of the bodies, sometimes he would eat the carcass or dissolved it in acid. Some of the body parts he refrigerated or preserved as keepsakes to get the feeling that the victim is still ‘a part of him’.
