1.     The Trick or Treat Murder

It was Hallowen Wisconsin in 1911, Madison residents were outraged by the abduction and murder of seven-year-old Annie Lemberger. In 1982, the brutal sexual asult and murder of Paula McCormik age nine, prompted some in the Madison community to call for the release of suspect Roger Lange so street justice could deal with him.

A similar case occurred in 1973 in Fond Lu Lac, Nine-year-old Lisa French put on black felt hat and green parka. She put tape on her blue jeans before going outside. It was Hallowen night and Lisa had decided to go trick-or-treating as a hobo. Lisa made her way alone through the neighborhood, going up and down each block and collecting her bag of treats.

Not far from where Lisa was trick-or-treating, a woman, Arlene Penn to pick up her live-in boyfriend, Gerald Turner. She was supposed to go with her boyfriend to her mother’s house for dinner. However, when Penn got home, Turner said he wasn’t feeling well and that she should go to her mother’s without him. Penn drove over and when she got there, she realized that her mother wouldn’t be home for another hour, so she returned to her home where she snuggled and watched TV with Turner and then left again for dinner. When she arrived, Turner was dressed in a bathrobe. She noticed their green bedspreas was on the floor of the laundry room and asked him about it. He said he has thrown up on it. 

Lisa French chose to go to the wrong house while trick-or-treating. She knocked on Turner’s door, but instead of giving her candy, Turner somehow lured Lisa into the bedroom he shared with Penn. Once there, he assaulted Lisa before strangling her to death. Her body was found dumped along a roadside three days later.

Nine months later, Gerald Turner was convicted of second-degree murder and was eventually released from prison. However, he violated his parole and is now behind bars. To this day, the town of Fond Du Lac has a strict trick-or-treating curfew. Children are only allowed to make their rounds between 3:30 and 5:30pm.

2.     The Lucky Roomate

Halloween 2004, a woman named Lauren living in Napa, California, saw her security light turn on and heard her dog bark. She just assumed that it was the cat that belonged to her roommate Adriane Insogna and went back to sleep. A short time later, Lauren heard someone come into the house. Lauren assumed it was her other roommate’s, Leslie Mazzara, boyfriend, and she again fell back asleep.

A blood curdling scream awoke Lauren next. It came from upstairs, where both of her roommates slept. Lauren stepped out of the bedroom and was suddenly frozen with fear. That’s when a man came barreling down the stairs. Lauren ran out the backdoor, but the problem was that the backyard was surrounded by a 6 foot fence and there wasn’t any way to get out, so she hid until everything went quiet.

Lauren didn’t know, if the intruder was in the house or not, but she ventured back in. She tried to use the phone, but found that the line had been cut. She then ventured upstairs and in one of the bedrooms, it looked like a scene straight out of a horror movie. Both bedrooms were covered in blood, and Mazzara was dead, while Insogna was slowly bleeding to death. Lauren called 9-1-1, but sadly, it was too late for Insogna and she died at the hospital.

Eleven months later, The police were able to trace the distinct cigarette brand found at the scene to Eric Copple, the husband of Adrianne’s close friend. Copple was reportedly jealous of the friendship between his wife and Adrianne, which is why he killed her. Unfortunately for Leslie, she just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. Copple admitted to the crime and is currently serving a life sentence.

3.     Grisly Halloween Decoration

In October 2015, in the town of Chillicothe, Ohio, people in one neighborhood noticed a grotesque Halloween decoration hanging from a chain link fence. It looked like the body of a dead woman, but the face was unrecognizable because it was all bloody. Everyone thought it was a sick joke, but no one actually went near it until about 8:30 a.m. on the following day. A construction crew went to move the prop and they discovered that was a real body.

The police were called, and the body was identified as Rebecca Cade, 31. On the day she was killed, Cade had gotten into a fight with her boyfriend, Donnie Cochenour Jr., 27. She tried to run away, but she fell into the fence and Cochenour hit her with a rock. He then proceeded to beat her to death, disfiguring her face enough to make it look like a Halloween prop. Cochenour was arrested and is currently awaiting trial. 

4.     The Candy Man

People purposely poisoning strangers’ Halloween candy is mostly the stuff of urban legend, but this 1974 case in Deer Park, TX. The father, Ronald Clark O’Bryan, had fallen deeply into debt, so he decided to claw his way out of his self-inflicted money hole by murdering his son. He handed his children Pixy Stix and soon after his son Timothy ingested the powdered candy, he began vomiting and convulsing uncontrollably. He was taken to the hospital and he was pronounced dead. 

After the police investigated the death, they concluded that Ronald was actually the one who put the cyanide in the Pixy Stix. Ronald, who had a history of insurance fraud, had taken out a $20,000 life insurance policy on both of his children. He poisoned The Pixy Stix to kill both his children for the money, and then, he wanted to poison other children to hide his crimes. He was arrested, convicted, and executed for the murder of his son in March 1984.


5. The Tool Box Killer

Lawrence Bittaker and Roy Norris were known as the “Tool Box Killers” because they routinely employed implements such as pliers and hammers in their unconscionably vicious series of kidnap/rape/torture/murders of five teenage California girls in 1979.

The last of these murders happen on October 31, 1979, sixteen year old Shirley Ledford was hitchhiking home from a Halloween party in a suburb of Los Angeles. Ledford made the unfortunate mistake of accepting a ride from two men, Lawrence Bittaker and Roy Norris.

Bittaker and Norris were deeply disturbed individuals with a shared love of sexual violence and misogyny. Over the course of several hours Bittaker and Norris drove around in their van brutally torturing Ledford with toolbox appliances, sexually assaulting her, and beating and strangling her to death—which was all recorded by the deranged psychopath’s on a recording device. The pair became known as the “Tool Box Killers” for their choice of attack, and both are currently on death row.

During the course of Ledford’s murder, they tape-recorded themselves taunting her while she screamed for mercy. Norris was later quoted as saying:

We’ve all heard women scream in horror films … still, we know that no one is really screaming. Why? Simply because an actress can’t produce some sounds that convince us that something vile and heinous is happening. If you ever heard that tape, there is just no possible way that you’d not begin crying and trembling. I doubt you could listen to more than a full sixty seconds of it.
