Ted Bundy

Born in November 1946, Theodore Robert Bundy, or more commonly known as Ted Bundy, was one of the most prolific serial killers in American History. He was a extremely handsome man and use his good looks to lure victims to kill. He confessed to 36 murders, but nobody really knows how many had been committed or when he began his legacy of horror; he had gone to his grave without confessing the actual total.

In 1967, while attending as a student at the University of Washington, he met a girl that had the most effect on his life. Ted fell deeply in love with Stephanie Brooks. She didn’t respond with as much passion, however, and when she graduated in 1968 she ended their relationship. This was the fuel that caused him to start killing.  Brooks was a very attractive girl with brown hair always parted down the middle. He never adnmited to it, but the majority of his victims represented Brooks in some way, shape, or form.

A few years later, Ted hooked up with Brooks again, and their relationship took off. They fell in love. Just as they  began to believe that the relationship might lead to marriage, Bundy cut off all contact with her suddenly, the same way she did to him six years before. This revenge brought Bundy little comfort; however but the rage left with him was what sublimated into numberous brutal attacks on women. 

Ted's victims were usually young attractive females with dark hair parted down the middle. His technique was to approach his victim wearing a cast, introduce himself as Ted, and ask the girl to help carry his books. He made it look like he was having trouble managing because of his broken arm. With his great looks and charming personality, the girls could not resist.When he finally had them alone, he would knock them on the head with a crowbar, stuff their bodies into his car, strangle them while they were unconscious and then commit necrophilic rape. He would then leave the naked body in a wooded area, like Taylor Mountain where most of thge bodies were discovered.

Bundy’s  tactics finally came to an end on 24 January 1989, and he was executed at 7 am, taking the secret of his actual victim count with him. His body was cremated and his ashes were spread over the same Washington State mountain area that he used to dump his vicitms.
