Albert Fish is a monster who some believe to be the “most deranged killer in American history” (Rampo Catskill Library system, Biography resource center, Albert Fish ). The character Hannibal Lector in the movie Silence of the Lambs is partially based on him. Murder was not the only thing that Albert Fish indulged in. He also dabbed in cannibalism, fetishism, pedophilia, voyeurism, exhibitionism, and masochism.
