In the early 1900's, amidst the idyllic landscapes of the American Midwest, a dark tale of deception and murder unfolded, centered around one woman.  Behind her charming facade lurked a sinister killer. This woman had a dark side that compelled her to do gruesome and violent acts. Her appetite for money and murder was insatiable, earning her the title of Americas most notorious female serial killer. Poisoning, drugging, beheading, dismembering, and feeding her victims remains to her pigs is just one part of her notoriety. This woman was dubbed the Black Widow and the Indiana Ogress once her gruesome farm graveyard was unearthed but she's never answered for a single crime to which there are many. This is what nightmares are made of.      Source info . . . . . . .
