This is the frightening story that inspired the movie, "Scream"...

Ambitious, attractive, and full of potential, five young college students prepared for a new semester. They dreamed of pursuing careers and starting their own families. They had a lifetime of experiences in front of them. But death came without warning in the dark of the night.

Brutally ending five promising lives, leaving behind three gruesome crime scenes, the Gainesville Ripper terrorized the University of Florida and surrounding area, casting an ominous shadow across a terrified college town. And the five Gainesville murders were not his first. What evil lurked inside him? What demons drove him to kill? What made him A Monster of All Time?
