It has been a week and I'm halfway done. I haven't found anything on The Rose, but I have found almost half a dozen other killers that terrorised our town like,

The Soul Scratcher
Sex: Male
Name and Surname: Thomas Dickens

Birthplace: London, St. Saintsbury

Gravedigger
Sex: Female
Name and Surname: Maya Hindler
Birthplace: North Virginia, Lakewood
Birthdate: 29 October 1967

Famous for burying her victims alive with only a certain amount of oxygen and demands money for the location of the victim, but after she gets the money she sends two locations at the time where there is only half an hour of oxygen left. In most cases the victim dies anyway. She also stabs her victims before she buries them.

Christopher Pelant
Sex: Male
Name and Surname: Christopher Pelant

Highly intelligent. Pelant had no consistent method in his crimes, though his crimes were usually very complex and involved severely mutilating the victims, sometimes in order to implant messages into their remains.

Status: Deceased
Cause of Death: Slit throat, drained of blood

Gormogon
Sex: Male
Name and Surname: Jason Harkness
Birthplace: North Virgina, Lakewood
Birthdate: 19 April 1949

Gormogon was a cannibal, eating his victims after he murdered them. His victims would be carefully selected to complete his skeleton. He would take phalanges ( finger bones) of a skilled pianist or the humerus ( upper arm bone) of a good tennis player. He took the canines of his victims and made himself a new pair of teeth.

Status: Deceased
Cause Of Death: Slit throat, drained of blood

The Cutter
Sex: Male
Name and Surname: Jake Lindon
Birthplace: North Virginia, Lakewood
Birthdate: 3 December 1943

Lindon gave his victims sedatives to incapacitate them and would then proceed in cutting them. He would let the wound heal and then he would start all over.

Status: Currently serving his sentence in The Waverly Hills Sanatorium
Living relatives: Madeline Lindon (daughter), Caroline Lindon (granddaughter)

This is strange, all the killers died in a way The Rose killed his victims, all, except for Jake Lindon. I'm sure he will know something about the asshole who killed my parents and destroyed my childhood. You see he has a signature. A few days before the murder he sends a bouquet of roses, usually white, to his victim. He slits the victim's throat and hangs them upside down until all the blood is drained from the body. He then places two roses on the victim's chest.

"Hey, Captain. Can I ask you something?" I say while walking to him. He is sitting at his desk typing on his computer.

"Sure, what about? I told you, you can call me Joseph."
