The 1980's was the peak of serial killings, according to experts. Here's a list of the most infamous. Some say that the '80s was the peak for serial killers and the public’s fascination with them. "It does seem the golden age of serial murderers is probably past," said Harold Schechter, a professor who studies crime at Queens College of the City University of New York in a Slate report. That article suggested that serial murders peaked in the '80s and have been declining ever since. Studies have shown that before the '60s, only a dozen or so serial killers were reported — although it's possible less communication and coordination by law enforcement between states resulted in reporting that wasn't as strong. The number of serial killers exceeded 200 in the '80s. By the '90s, the number of cases dropped to 141 and again to 61 by the 2000s. Here are 8 of the most lethal serial killings of the decade. donjazet Cultiatupdate (Awesome Guy really) 1 Like |

Larry Eyler Also known as the Highway Murderer and the Interstate Killer, Eyler is believed to have killed between 19 and 23 people from 1982 to 1984. He was convicted and sentenced to death in Illinois for the 1984 murder and dismemberment of a 15-year-old. Eyler confessed to 21 further homicides of young men and boys he had committed between 1982 and 1984 in five separate states before he died. After his death, Eyler’s defense attorney released his list of victims. The list revealed the 17 names whom Eyler had confessed to murdering. Four of them were murdered by an accomplice, later revealed to be Robert David Little, a college professor. A 1990 book Freed to Kill explored Eyler's possible connection to multiple murders and missing young men in Indiana and Illinois. The book influenced the re-opening of several missing person cases. 2 Likes 1 Share

This serial killer is one I hate. He is also known as the .22-Caliber Killer or the Midtown Slasher. He gained notoriety for a series of murders, estimated at a dozen, in the early 1980s. In addition to killing at least 12, he wounded numerous others. Almost all his victims were African-American. Lethal is definitely an adjective for this one! He killed a lot of people in very short period of times. Christopher’s killing spree began in September of 1980 when he committed four murders in the space of just 36 hours. Those four killings were committed with a .22 caliber sawed-off rifle, which led to the nickname .22-Caliber Killer. He committed two more murders the next month by bludgeoning his victims to death. After the bludgeoning, he cut out their hearts In December of 1980, Christopher stabbed four people to death in Manhattan. He then stabbed a man to death in Buffalo, New York and another in Rochester, NY, also both in December. Dispicable 1 Like

Richard Ramirez, known as the Night Stalker killed 14 people within a short span between 1984 and 1985. He used a variety of weapons to kill his victims that ranged from guns to knives to tire irons and hammers. Ramirez wasn’t picky about age or gender either. His victims ranged from age 9 to 79, and he killed both men and women. During his spree, he nearly paralyzed Los Angeles with fear. Ramirez often smiled for the cameras at his trial and when he was convicted, he was heard to say, “No big deal. Death always comes with the territory. I’ll see you in Disneyland.” He was the postal boy image of a serial killer , even signed his on autograph like Ted Bundy 2 Likes 1 Share
