Dark Topic

From the late ’70s, through the ’80s, and all the way to the early ’90s, horror movie fanatic and humble highway mechanic John Ackroyd cruised up and down the 20 chewing Fireballs. Patrolling the central Oregon woods. Occasionally hunting deer, but preferably poaching a girl.

The Arkansas Hitchhike Killer, James Waybern “Red” Hall, was such a hothead that his hair seemed to be ablaze.

London, Ontario, Canada had the highest concentration of serial murder back in the seventies… though I doubt many people know that.

Archibald Thomson Hall, eventually known as Roy Fontaine, changed his name to better suit the world of butlery—which was a touch odd… given that “Archibald” sounds far more like a butler’s name than “Roy.” Then again, making a mess of things was exactly what the “Monster Butler” was best at.
