Next, the reason I brought up the name was because the part about the devil with the hat was used as a title when it had borderline no relevance to the actual story and felt kind of clunky. It's like if Smile Dog was named "Photograph of Evil Dog". It simply doesn't fit as well.

There's a difference between having your brain violently and forcibly scooped out versus being born with extreme brain abnormalities, and there's also the issue of his victim bleeding between the time where our antagonist takes the victim from the street to where he kills his victim.

First off, even if he kills with a purpose and rarely kills, the way he kills is still highly risky for him to get caught. Second, we DO know why Ted Bundy killed people: sexual pleasure.

Finally, if you're trying to write a creepypasta and you're NOT trying to make it scary, you've already failed. Not always, I've read something about a universe where they found God and he died, something about a universe where God is a interstellar mass of "monster" that devours everything and so on and so on. While we are trying to make horror fiction, we do shave some of the realism. By the way have you heard of Synthetic Marijuana? that's like the most inovative drug in Israel, every time they get busted, they simply add another chemical or change one of the components and thus it becomes "legal" again - horrible thing to the body though.

I'll take your point for the name

The brain scoping part, I took it from "Hannibal", just like Lecter gently cut off bits and parts of Krendler's brains so did my character. The vision was this "none" harsh way of scraping it away slowly. As for the bleeding part, again, you do have some point here - if the character I envision has medical background, I should mention it to the readers :)

Sure, you base that statment on Bundy's final interview or something else? cause I'd say domination or some sort of other gratification could come out of his deeds too. Also, I'm asking out of curiousity here too.

Finally, the thing is, here, to say that if you did enjoy this story, you're a "blood craving" son of gun. Mostly should make oneself feel "bad' for reading this. Doesn't work for everyone but some people buy into that.
