Who was the Most Prolific Serial Killer of All Time?


Listen Later

In the pantheon of worst humans to ever human you will find no shortage

of bastions of awful. Hitler probably has the most collective conscious
panache, but at least he had the decency to bravely, and with no regard
for his personal safety, infiltrate the Hitler bunker and then put a
bullet through the cranium of Hitler. But individuals like Hitler did
their killing via proxy. As for those who were a little more hands on,
the Hitler of these was arguably a man by the name of Vasili Blokhin
who, as we’ve covered previously in our video Who Has Directly Murdered
the Most People By Their Own Hand?, personally killed, one at a time,
over 7,000 people in under one month alone, let alone countless others
he offed at other points in his career. Vasili and many others like him,
however, killed for their respective states. In contrast, within this
subset of individuals who killed by their own hand, we have a special
class that in recent decades has been given the moniker “serial killer”,
which brings us to the macabre topic of today- who was the most
prolific serial killer of all time?
