10 most evil people in the world

Here are some of the most evil people known to have walked the Earth..

10. Katherine Mary Knight

A woman of Australian origin, Katherine had an abusive childhood. She was aware of her abusive father raping her mother upto 10 times a day.  Katherine herself was a victim of sexual abuse, raped by many of her family members till she was about 11 years old. The psychiatrists have confirmed this as the origin of her psychopathic behavior.

Knight is known to have loved “slicing and dicing” men. She nearly killed her first husband by smashing his jaw and almost strangling him on the first night after marriage. She threw her newborn baby girl around in a pram, then left her on the railway tracks just minutes before the train arrived. Katherine used to sleep with her boning knives next to her, and the last man in her life, John Charles Thomas Price became a victim of this fascination of hers. She stabbed him 37 times in the back and in the chest, with many jabs passing through his vital organs. The infamous “suit” of a man’s skin was Price’s, when Knight skinned his body and hung the “suit” in her drawing room. She then cut up his body, boiled the head in a soup, baked his buttocks, and served the “meal” to his own children.

9. Joseph Mengele

More commonly known as the “Angel of Death”, Joseph was a doctor and incharge of selecting and sending Jews to Hitler’s concentration camp at Auschwitz. He conducted many experiments, the most famous one being on twins. To see if the human body could be manipulated, he studied the genetic differences among twins. Then, as the experiment progressed, he committed various barbaric acts such as pouring chemicals into the children’s eyes to see if this changed their eye color, inducing parents to kill their own children, and attempting to change the sex of the children. Once, to see if this method produced co-joined twins, Mengele sewed the children together. Other instances include torturing people and many a times, personally beating the prisoners at the camp to death.

8. Gaius Caesar

A member of the Julio- Claudian dynasty, Gaius- commonly known as Caligula- was a Roman emperor from 37 AD to 41 AD. His hunger for sexual adventures was huge, and a brain fever had left him feeling that he was God. For him, murder was a fun activity. More than 150,000 animals were butchered for his amusement, early in his rule. He also ordered the murder of countless people, and made it compulsory for the victim’s family members to be audience to the murder. Caligula was a psychotic, and liked chewing the testicles of his victims. He had sexual relations with numerous women, including his own sisters. He forced men to send their wives to him for sexual pleasure. Under his rule, many people died of starvation.

7. Tracey Wigginton

Also known as the “Lesbian Vampire Killer”, Wigginton is a self-claimed “human vampire”. She had an insatiable thirst for blood, and herself told the court that she survived on pig and cow blood which she would obtain from her local butcher. Her most cold-blooded murder was that of a man named, Edward Baldock, whom Tracy, her lesbian lover and two more of their female friends lured into their car on promising sexual pleasure, when the man was drunk. Tracy’s friends claim to have killed the man so that she could drink his blood. Wigginton stabbed the man countless times in the back and at the back of his neck, till he was nearly beheaded. She then drank his blood as it sprouted out of his body. Wigginton’s lesbian lover, Lisa Ptaschinski has told the court that she often used to slit her wrists so that Tracy could drink her blood.

6. Elizabeth Bathory

Another blood-crazy lady, 650 young women were reportedly killed during her reign, as Bathory had them beaten, pierced, killed and drained their blood, in which she would take a bath as she felt it made her skin softer and made her younger. Some of her most horrid acts include burning the faces of her servants with hot irons when they failed to work up to her expectation, freezing young women to death by stripping them naked on cold winter mornings and having ice-cold water poured on them, and piercing her victims with needles. Bathory used to bite the flesh of her victims, biting their faces, hands, and even private parts. Some of her victims were even forced to eat their own flesh. It is not a confirmed fact, but Bathory may have also eaten up some of her servants.

5. Ivan

Czar of Russia from 1533 to 1584, Ivan has been called one of the most evil men in history.  Known to be aggressive right from childhood, he liked beating up, torturing and killing both animals and people alike. He ordered the murder of many children and forced their parents to watch the murder. He was brutal in his style and often had his victims strangled, beheaded, blinded, stabbed, hanged, buried alive, and even boiled and fried. There exist records stating that he pulled out people’s ribs using red hot pinchers. Once, in a fit of rage, he murdered his own son.

4. Saloth Sar

More commonly known as Pol Pot. Prime Minister of Cambodia from 1976 to 1979, he is the only man in history known to have ordered  a genocide against the entire country, killing about 3 million Cambodians in his rule of four years. He and his group, Khmer Rouge, took it upon him to bring ‘civilization’ to Cambodia. They shut down almost all the schools and ordered an evacuation. During his tenure, Pol has been credited with ordering the people, no matter what age, gender, class, and even pregnant women, to work in fields during the rainy the rainy season, standing in neck-deep water. As a result, their hands and feet would swell-up and bleed. People had no right to eat, and of found eating, they were flogged and even beaten to death. Pol had numerous babies killed, many of them literally “torn limb-by-limb”. Prisoners were forced to drink human urine. To top it all, Pol liked keeping the skulls of his victims, and their lives were of no value at all to him.

3. Vlad Dracula

Also known as “Dracula the Impaler”, he was the prince of Wallacha. His favorite method of torturing his victims was through impalement. He would have his victims tied up, and then impale (or insert) a blunt rod through an orifice (opening) in the body. The orifice was sometimes the stomach or abdomen, and many times, the buttocks. Vlad would order that a long rod be impaled into the buttocks of the victims, and kept being pushed in till it emerged out of the victim’s mouth. This completely damaged all internal organs and many of the people- be it men, women, or even babies- would suffer for hours or even days, and finally, bleed to death. One condition laid out by Vlad was that the rods be blunt, because if they were sharp, they would penetrate more, and the victim would die sooner and suffer lesser. He also had his wife killed and her vital organs cut off.

2. Adolf Hitler

Probably the most common image of “evil” in the common man’s mind. Leader of the Nazi party and Germany’s Fuhrer, he ordered propaganda against the Jews in Germany. All the Jews were sent to his infamous concentration camps, which were gas chambers with showerheads emitting hydrogen cyanide. But all Jews were not killed just in these gas chambers- a lot of them also perished to forced labor, starvation, poisoning, lethal injections, disease, execution and medical experiments. Hitler also had in place, a “breeding program”- any child who did not match his definition of Nazi perfection, was executed.

1. Joseph Stalin

The most evil person to have walked this Earth till date is the Soviet dictator, Joseph Stalin. An assassin and bank robber in young adulthood, Stalin was ruler from 1922 to 1953. To overcome the debt on the Soviet Union and see it emerge as the sole economic superpower, Stalin pushed his people into forced labor. Under his rule, many people were beaten to death, thousands of them gassed using mustard gas, and a lot of them killed with ice picks. Stalin even refused to trade for his son’s life, who later died in a Nazi concentration camp. His sole aim to bring the Soviet at par with the US made him care nothing for his people’s lives. He killed between 20 and 60 million people. His own wife committed suicide because of his cruel and evil practices.
