Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Night falls and the rivers of blood flow forth once more. For what are murderers if not creatures of the dark? Hiding in plain sight as the average neighbor, co-worker or even employer, just waiting for the moment to unleash their murderous urges. Whether they are sadistic in their methods or not does not change the common trait that they all share: the presence of evil. These crimes shock us to the core, leading us to wonder just what is going on in their minds that leads them to take lives without any feeling of remorse...yet deep down we're actually intrigued by their crimes. Fascinated, even. In truth, these killers bring forth a dark curiosity that keeps us reading chapter after chapter, book after book, and once we're done we begin to reflect on how interesting the psychology behind these characters can be. It is precisely because of this wondrous fascination that we have compiled a fresh set of three True Crime Stories books, following the success of our first collection, this time with the bestselling volumes 4-6. 36 tales of bloodshed and terror, police investigation and the background of each and every killer await you, with each subject varying from serial killer to mass murderer, ruthless monster to seemingly harmless member of the community. No two killers are the same and no two murders are committed for the same reason - this much you are about to find out. Reader, you are about to embark on a road of horror, death and cruelty...are you ready to walk the blood-chilling path into the mind of a killer?

Download or read book Far Worse Than Fiction Book 4 written by Chuck Manning and published by . This book was released on 2021-06-10 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Monsters are real, and they live among us. True crime can be far worse than anything that Hollywood could dream up. Sometimes your quiet by-the-book dentist could actually be a hitman who has operated under the radar for decades. Or, it could be the nice guy who is the son of the candy store owner with the creepy nickname. All of the stories in Far Worse Than Fiction - Book 3 are true, even if we don't want them to be. In a society that craves a motive and reason why some do what they do, sometimes we'll never know. In this book... ◆ Hitman DDS: Many individuals involved with crime-solving have said the best place to hide is in plain sight. The notion of a creep who only comes out at night to strike victims before scurrying away to a hidden layer to live as a hermit makes good fairy tales, but the reality is most successful mass killers are right in front of you. The "always seemed like a nice guy" cliche shows up almost every time a next-door neighbor has a microphone shoved in their face trying to come to grips with what just happened a few dozen feet away from their front door. The Far Worse Than Fiction series includes true stories about a bakery shop owner, a few farmers, and a doctor so far. Now a dentist. ◆ I-5 Strangler: A lady dropped off some friends in Sacramento, California. She wasn't familiar with the area, so before leaving, her friends gave her directions on how to get back to her home. Part of those directions included Interstate 5. Upon arriving at the Interstate, she went in the wrong direction heading south rather than north as her friends had instructed. Her friends would be the last people who cared about her to see her alive. ◆ Climbing the Walls: The death of a woman left behind a grieving husband and two teenage daughters. It was devastating for the girls, and they would begin to try anything they could to get in contact with her one last time. These attempts would play into one of the most bizarre crimes in modern history. ◆ Ghosts from the Past: Opportunistic serial killers kill those who are around them during a natural progression through their lives. These are often family members. It's a natural human instinct that tells us we don't want to believe a loved one would kill another loved one, which makes investigating these killings more difficult. Unfortunately, it takes a body count before anyone takes notice. ◆ Father or Son: An assailant murdered a person in their own home in Papakura, New Zealand. An ex-boyfriend is the first one to be named as a perpetrator. However, the boyfriend will make a claim that will jeopardize the entire case. ◆ The Candy Man: Someone reported a fatal shooting outside of Houston, Texas. When police arrived, they discovered the body of a man shot six times. Hardened veterans of law enforcement would find themselves horrified with the story that ultimately unfolds. For everyone involved, this would be the most significant murder case of their careers. * The names of the victims and investigators have been changed. Only the names of the guilty are real.

Yet you will be unable to stop reading, turning page after page. Each true crime anthology in this collection will leave you to ponder whether the perpetrators of these crimes were really monsters. When you learn of the background of these killers, the age-old question of whether a serial killer is born to kill will be at the forefront of your mind.

Feel for the victims, their families, and the investigators who had to deal with each case. And don't be surprised if you have to sleep with the light on.
