In reply to LauraElle. I wondered that myself! There has to be more to her story than just suddenly killing for her kid. Thanks for stopping by.

In reply to Stacy Green. What I want to know about the old lady is what led up to her killing humans? I'll bet she started on animals first.

In reply to August McLaughlin.

Thanks, August. It was a fun one to do, even though it’s very dark and creepy, lol. Yes, I think trusting our instincts are so key. They’re usually spot on, and there are scary people out there. I’m glad your ex wasn’t a killer either, lol.

Thanks for stopping by.

Terrific post, Stacy. Knowing psychopathic killers are out there can at least motivate us to learn to trust and act safely upon our instincts. I’m pretty sure I’ve come across a few psychopaths, including a boyfriend who shall remain nameless! Fortunately, he wasn’t a killer. *whew*

In reply to Pat Bertram. That's a really good point, and there are certainly more of them than the ones that choose to kill. That would be a case study I would love to read. Thanks for commenting!

The sociopaths who fascinate me are the non-killing ones. Who knows who they are and why they do the odd, almost robotic things they do? Could be your mother-in-law, even.

In reply to Natalie Hartford.

Yep, pretty much. It is very creepy, but fascinating as well. She’s definitely the story of the day, isn’t she? I may have to do a bigger post on her some time.

Thanks!

Creepy!! There could be psychopaths all around us. Eeeekeee…and that soap makers story and the chilling and detached way in which she recounted the murders. Seriously creepy!
Chilling!!!

In reply to Cynthia Robertson.

Yeah, she is. I get her losing it over her son, but there had to be more to it than her just freaking out over the possibility of his getting killed. Jumping to human sacrifice is a big step. And you’re so right. It is difficult for anyone to make that call, and their skill at hiding – and manipulating – is terrifying.

Totally agree about Hannibal:) Thanks!
