The Most Notorious Psychopaths in History
by List of people who are known for their cruel and violence behavior.
Psychopaths are people with chronic immoral behavior who gain satisfaction through antisocial actions. They have uncontrollable aggressive impulses. Psychopathy does not always lead to criminal behavior. However when psychopathy is accompanied with low social cognition, it will usually lead to pathological narcissism. This narcissism drives violence behavior towards others and triggers failure in relationship and in keeping an occupation. A psychopath never feels remorse for their actions.
Albert Hamilton Fish
He was a pedophile, sadomasochists, a cannibal and a vampire. He liked to torture before killing his victims. His character was personified as Hannibal Lechter in a famous movie “Silence of the Lambs”. Because of his cruelty, he was called the Gray Man, the Werewolf of Wysteria, and the Brooklyn Vampire.
He grew up in foster home, a place where he first experienced violence. He became a homosexual in the age of 12. He murdered his first victim in 1910. He mostly attacked mentally retarded or Afro-American children. He confessed to have tortured, molested and mutilated his victims. He drank the victim’s blood and would cook and ate the bodies. He boasted to have molested more than 100 children. He was sentenced to death and executed in electric chair in 1936. He was 65 years old when executed.
Aileen “Lee” Carol Wuornos
Her story was the inspiration of the movie “Monster” starring Charlize Theron as Lee and Christina Ricci as Shelby, Lee’s lover. The media called her as “American First Female Serial Killer”, although she was in fact not the first. She murdered seven truck drivers in Florida Highway. She robbed her victims and shot them to death.
Born as Aileen Carol Pitman, she experienced domestic violence since childhood. After her mother left her, she lived with her abusive grandfather and ended being raped by her father’s friend. She earned her living by becoming a street prostitute at age 13. At 15, she gave birth to a son, who was soon taken away from her.

It’s a sad truth that some people seem to be born without any conciousness of right or wrong.It must be that some brains are malformed while in the womb.Either that or something so horrible happens to these young children that it causes the brain to malform.
ML Sheldon

Very good article… extremely interesting. I always wonder how it is that people come to be that way. Is it an animal instinct? It’s like wolves that are born and raised in captivity… they’re still wild.
I wonder if the same thing applies to adjusting to society.
Pete Macinta
On February 18, 2009 at 9:36 pm
Per the Bible, everyone has a conscious. However, some consciouses are seared. IMO, a lot of demon activity with this bunch you have listed. I will quickly add that though there is demon activity, these people were still accountable for what they did. God will handle them.
With that, it is comforting to know that the Word of God indicates that Christ will one day return. It is then that the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord.
Even better than that is the promise of Revelation 21-22.
God bless,
Pete

I noticed that most of them are either neglected or abused as a child. Not that this means that they can do what ever they feel like, but it says a lot. People need to stop and think before they mis use a child, they might produce a monster.

Wow.. what a scary monsters these ******** are! It is so dangerous to let children out these days.
Execution in electric chair isn’t common across the world. Good writeup

Everyone, I have something to tell you, if you think these individuals are monster, there are other monsters out there that is destroying humanity. These monsters are responsible for the epidmec crime of gangstalking. Your same agencies such as FBI, CIA, NSA, have psychopaths that are destroying human beings through gangstalking. If we are to put a stop to this, all of us need to unite, and get the word out about these monsters.

Such evil people have walked earth..they needed to be put down like a sickly animal you hunt.
Either way not all psychopaths are serial killers, its just a common trait they have..also a pyschopath tends to kill more organized while a sociopath will not..just to clear that up a little..although, there are always exceptions.

On December 6, 2009 at 10:57 pm
Ugh *shiver*. These guys were terrible. What’s even worse is that 1% the world’s population (66,920,303 people as of 2008) are also psychopaths, and although not all of them kill or commit grisly crimes, all of them are umempathetic, feel no guilt, and consequently and don’t give a darn if their actions are right or wrong, as long as they serve them. What’s even worse is that these people are really good at hiding themselves, making themselves seem like normal people.
However, I, like most everyone here, also have a fascination with the macabre. It’s fascinating to study cases like these and attempt to construe how anyone could do anything so heinous.
I would hypothesize that this fascination is really a survival instinct instilled within all humans so that we could learn more about it in order to better defend ourselves from it, but then I would just be making excuses.
Anyway, this was, on the whole, a most horrifying yet fascinating read that has inspired me to do a little research of my own on these types of people. Thank you!

Very informative! I think the driving force why they become like that is how they raised by their parents or worst when they were abandoned when they were still very young and also their environment is another factor.
Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed reading this. I am only familiar with Charles Manson, Albert Fish and Ted Bundy.

An interesting list. Pyschopaths abound unfortunately. Look up Countess Bathry and Doctor Kovorkian as well.

What about good old Jack the Ripper and Ivan the Terrible? Oh and who can not consider Vlad III or Vlad the Impaler- The arguable first vampire. I guess it would be too hard to include all the historical psychopaths….Though I think our definition over time has changed because I can think of many a few political leaders of the past that can be said to be psychopathic….

On December 21, 2011 at 10:41 pm
putting Charles Manson in this list is ridiculous. he did not kill anyone personally. And you are missing the 2 biggest ones: Ivan the Terrible and Vlad Tepes.

On January 1, 2012 at 9:48 pm
@it I agree 100 procent..
And what about djengis khan?? he was worse than most of the above put together..
Someone mentioned that about 1 percent of the population are psychopaths…that’s the worst bullshit I’ve ever read.
There are estimated 1 psychopath for every million people.
There’s a lot of people amongst us with some sort of mental disorder, that can cover everything from antisocial behaviour to wankers in public toilets and narcissisme etc… but true psychopaths are rare..thank god for that:-)

@michael
your wrong, to my understanding, psychopaths do compose about 1% of the population. Mostly in big cities, politics and businesses,
psychopaths usually have a combination of anti-social personality disorder and narcissistic personality disorder.
If god had anything to do with it, one would thing he would not have made psychopaths in the first place. Instead of thanking god for the limited number of psychopaths, I would ask why there are any.
