12 Psychopaths: The Most Famous Maniacs Among Each Zodiac Sign

Every person has a dark and a light side. The planet under which you were born determines the set of characteristics of your personality or, in modern language, sets the basic settings. But how they will be used and in what proportions they will be with each other depends on a lot of factors. Prenatal development, family, upbringing, climate, food, school - there are countless.

As a result, by the age of 18, a ready-made personality is obtained, which either uses the qualities laid down by the zodiac for the benefit of itself and other people, or lives at the expense of negative manifestations of the same characteristics.

In most cases, the ratio of light and darkness in one person is more or less balanced. Today we can behave unethically and ugly, but at breakfast we will repent and ask for forgiveness. Darkness begins when negative attitudes capture a person (the reasons in this case do not interest us) and he begins to do things that make normal people's blood run cold.

Today we will look at people whose zodiac sign showed itself in all the power of the “dark side”.

Why do we need this?

We must remember that there is a monster in each of us. Look at examples of what you should not be and try your best to control the maniac inside you, put the psychopath on a chain and know that you should not relax.

Both the harmless Cancer and the charismatic Gemini can become a terrible monster, a non-human.

1. Aries - Hitler

Aries are distinguished by their irrepressible energy and dichotomous thinking. Namely, the inability to choose a middle position and look at the situation from the outside, i.e. for them there is only “black” and “white”, “bad” and “good”. Add to this a high intellect, psychological traumas of childhood and you get a loud mixture.

Hitler is an example of an Aries obsessed with an idea, whose energy helps him achieve seemingly impossible results. The trouble with Aries is that they are used as a battering ram by other people to solve their needs. Hitler was no exception. But this does not change the fact that this maniac is responsible for the lives of millions of people.

2. Taurus - H.H. Holmes

"The Chicago Beast" H.H. Holmes, armed with the patience and hard work of a Taurus, built a house that was designed exclusively for murder and tormenting people. Underground passages and secret rooms, a gas chamber and a torture room. Also, the super power of a Taurus was used, namely, unbreakable stubbornness. If a Taurus decides on something, then no amount of pleading or persuasion will make him change his mind.

During the World's Fair in Chicago in 1893, this maniac killed 27 people. And these are only the murders that were proven. According to some versions, the number of victims could reach 200 people.

Unlike Libra, Taurus is considered one of the most psychopathic signs of the zodiac.

3. Twins - Jeffrey Dahmer

Known as the "Milwaukee Cannibal," Jeffrey Dahmer demonstrated the Gemini's ability to shapeshift and duplicity at its darkest, managing to live the life of an upstanding citizen from 1978 to 1991 while simultaneously committing horrific crimes.

Dahmer was a necrophile, rapist, cannibal and murderer. The police managed to prove 17 episodes of murder.

The ability to feign empathy and good looks while hiding sinister secrets is further evidence of the dark side of Gemini.

4. Cancer - John Christie

Cancers are known for their vulnerability and deep emotionality. It is also believed that Cancers are one of the most harmless signs of the Zodiac. Meanwhile, it is not accepted to say that Cancer is sweet and kind, only until you piss him off. Cancer in anger is a terrible monster. In this case, vulnerability and emotionality turn into their opposites - cold-bloodedness and ruthlessness.

An example of this is the story of the "Monster of Rillington Place" by John Christie. Having survived two world wars, Christie went mad and began to kill people in cold blood. The first was his wife in 1948. Between the late 40s and 1953, Christie killed at least 8 people. A feature of his handwriting was that he hid the bodies of his victims in different places in his house. Again, a striking feature of Cancer, for whom home is everything.

5. Leo - Elizabeth Bathory

It is interesting that the bright representative of maniacs among Leos is a woman. Leos are known for their obsession and fixation on their own personality. Everything goes well as long as you stroke Leo's fur and do not openly doubt his exclusivity.

The story of the "Blood Countess" Elizabeth Bathory shows what happens when Leo's egoism reaches the extreme degree of perversion. In this case, Leo will see no limits. The Hungarian noblewoman Countess Bathory tortured and killed exclusively young girls. Her story includes blood baths and magical rituals, all for one purpose - to preserve youth. The exact number of victims is unknown. It is believed that we are talking about hundreds of killed.

6. Virgo - Ed Gein

The Virgo zodiac sign is characterized by a desire for perfectionism, meticulous attention to detail and criticism of those who do not live up to the ideal. Virgos can turn a hobby into a real passion and do what they love with the persistence of a maniac. It is good when Virgo's energy goes into a positive direction.

The same cannot be said for the "Plainfield Butcher" Ed Gein. He got his nickname because he dismembered his victims and made objects from their skin and bones. Gein also robbed graves and created souvenirs from the bones and skin.

7. Libra - Andrei Chikatilo

The main characteristic feature of Libra is the ability to weigh all the pros and cons, to consider different options and choose the one that promises the maximum benefit. For this reason, there are few known criminals among Libra. How could it be otherwise. After all, if you seriously think about it, it will become clear that the criminal path always ends in punishment.

Chikatilo, in this sense, is an exceptional Libra. Psychopathic passion has overcome the rationality and indecisiveness of Libra. More precisely, he put rationality at the service of his crimes. As a result, 53 victims and the confusion of the police in catching the elusive criminal.

8. Scorpio - Vlad Tepes (Count Dracula)

The Hungarian Count is perhaps the most vivid embodiment of the essence of the dark side of Scorpio. On the one hand, incredible charisma. You had to be a very charming person to have films made about you hundreds of years later and to portray your image as tragic and attractive. Yes, Scorpios know how to charm.

On the other hand, again, incredible cruelty, and not just cruelty, but perverted cruelty, what is called “with a twist.”

Selling your soul to the devil because of tragic love is very Scorpio. Being able to build multi-step plans of revenge, creating a mystical aura around yourself, is also a bright dark feature of Scorpio.

Whether Dracula was a vampire or not is a debatable story, but one thing is for sure - Dracula killed people with pleasure. A real maniac.

put to the service of his crimes. As a result, 53 victims and confusion of the police in catching the elusive criminal.

9. Sagittarius - Ted Bundy

Sagittarius is the zodiac traveler, known for his love of freedom and fearlessness. This sign does not tolerate obligations and cannot live without love. However, love in the interpretation of Sagittarius usually has an extravagant character.

The Sagittarius personality archetype, in its darkest interpretation, is represented by Ted Bundy, the “Woman Killer.” Bundy, an American serial killer, kidnapper, rapist, and necrophile, confessed to killing 30 young women in the 1970s. He used his charming personality and good looks to gain the trust of his female victims. The nickname “Woman Killer” has a double meaning, reflecting both his outward charm and his brutality.

Bundy's death-inducing journey across the states embodies Sagittarius' twisted desire to explore and push boundaries.

10. Capricorn - Joe Ball

Capricorn is a sign that is characterized by a disciplined, practical and structured life. Capricorns are good at achieving their goals and often take painstaking steps to achieve success.

These traits are perversely embodied by Joe Ball, the "Alligator Man." He was an American serial killer active in the early 20th century.

Joe Bill ran a tavern in Elmendorf, Texas, that had an unusual attraction: a large alligator pit where he disposed of human bodies.

During the investigation, it was proven that he killed at least two women, although there are rumors that he could have killed up to twenty.

11. Aquarius - Robert Hansen

Aquarius is a sign that is famous for its individuality and creativity. Aquariuses always think outside the box and want to leave their mark, standing out from the crowd. And they also do not know how to obey and follow other people's advice. All this leads to the fact that life with Aquarius sometimes becomes unbearable.

Twisted creativity was evident in Robert Hansen, or “The Butcher Baker.” Hansen was an American serial killer who preyed on women in Anchorage, Alaska, in the 1970s and early 1980s. Hansen would kidnap people, drive them into the wilderness, and then hunt them down with a gun or knife. Those creative Aquarians.

12. Pisces - John Wayne Gacy

Pisces are known for their empathy, thoughtful nature, and tendency to escape from life into imaginary worlds. At times, Pisces can invent very dark worlds for themselves and imagine that in these spaces they are gods who can decide the fate of people.

Escape into a nightmarish fantasy is represented in the person of John Wayne Gacy. Known as the Killer Clown, Gacy was an American serial killer and sex offender who murdered at least 33 people.

Gacy frequently performed at children's hospitals and charity events as "Pogo the Clown," a character he created.
