It’s official… the UK has become obsessed with serial killers thanks to the multitude of Netflix documentaries and TV shows giving the public an insight into their lives and gruesome crimes. People have taken this obsession and put it to the test, researching everything they possibly can to find out more on these notorious killers.

Off the back of this obsession, we have created an interactive map of the UK showing some of Britain’s most famous serial killer’s homes; from Jack the Ripper and Peter Sutcliffe, through to Fred & Rose West and Ian Brady & Myra Hindley.

First off; we know you want to know if any of your neighbours might be serial killers. Well, they might, but what we found was that you’re likely to live within just 113 miles from the UK’s next serial killer. We figured this out by looking at the average distance between the UK’s worst serial killers and, well, there you have it. 113 miles.

Not only does our interactive map ‘Serial Killer Homes’ highlight where in the UK the worst of the worst once lived, it also looks at the average house price in the area right now (some are expensive areas; not what you’d expect for a serial killer) but you can also click through to Google Street View, allowing you to virtually walk the steps that these dangerous killers might have taken on a daily basis.
