- When it comes to serial child killer Albert Fish, the adjectives to describe his inhumanity hardy seem strong enough - depraved, perverted, deviant, degenerate - he was all that and more. The crimes he committed fill the heart with rage, while the taunting letters he sent the victim’s families make you wonder how a human being could be so cruel. In this week’s Biographics, we venture in the sordid life of Albert Fish - and it ain’t pretty!

The wife leaving him make sense the wife leaving the children with him makes no sense.
Valer The Right right AND she left him with no possessions
My mom explained in those days if a woman left her husband she in most cases due to the times and law the woman had to leave the children with the father.
@@aryiastark4698, I always thought it was the opposite; that the woman would have custody of the children. I'll have to look that up.
@@aryiastark4698 boy it's sure not like that now. Men have close to no rights when it comes to the children.
Unlike now, the children had to stay with the father back then. Nowadays the father loses the money AND the kids.
This dude makes Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer look like choir boys
But all are pure scum, that is what they have in common
Yes
Definitely!
Can't disagree. The things this guy did are so depraved and disturbing, I am literally to uncomfortable to bring up his name.
@Lady Sneakles How do you torment someone who's gonna enjoy it?
Before he died, he entrusted his attorney with every gruesome detail of his crimes. The attorney was horrified and took those secrets to his grave, finding them too sickening to talk about.
I shutter to think what that sick f*ck wrote in the letter.
I'd like to hear them ngl.
Imagine being Fish's attorney and having to defend that man 😖
I don't blame him that man is a demon
@@smiel__ Same tbh. But only a written account, no images pls.
The more I hear about this Albert fish character, the less I care for him. He seemed like a real jerk.
Aren't you an old chunk of coal
Thank God Albert Fish passed away.. or has he ??
@@bxbyjxke6389 I didn’t know he was sick?
@@bxbyjxke6389 he was executed
Jerk is an understatement. Seeing this comment kind of offends me like wtf is actually wrong with you? He is one of the worst products of humanity.
Glad that the fish fried
they did, in a chair not a pan tho, fried fish the smell of justice
That was the headline "Fish Fries!".
Carlos!
I would've rather he had been executed in such a manner that would allow his brain to be preserved for scientific research.
He should have been battered before the frying.
I mean, this Albert Fish guy...he was a real jerk!
Now don't laugh at this next part
I love these videos and would’ve clicked the link anyway, but I clicked and just looked straight to this comment.
What a dirty dog !
NORM!
I was waiting for it! Literally the 2nd comment! Proud of you dude.
Genuinely! 🤣
This is the only serial killer I’ve literally been physically sick at, I can usually handle reading about serial killers but god reading about him was just so unsettling and sickening
likewise
@@beautifulgoddess2687?
I agree. I wish I had never looked up his name
Same. I physically recoiled when he kept describing this man's letters. I felt like vomiting.
You were actually sick? Was it in the basin or you get to the toilet on time?
Suddenly I’m very thankful to my parents teaching me to never talk to strangers under any circumstances no matter what they say. I wasn’t approached by anyone, but I’m still hella grateful.
I was approached by a serial pedophile as a yoingster. Delivered news papers at about 5.30 and this old dude was always out walking by himself. Proper dodgy guy, got arrested for severe pedophilia charges a couple of years ago
But just like Fish, a stranger can eventually become a "friend". Don't trust anyone, and sometimes you can't even trust those that are close to you, actually, those are the ones you gotta worry about the most.
Crazy the parents just let her walk away with a total stranger
My parents told me "A stranger is just a friend you haven't met yet" and then abandoned me in a supermarket. When I made it home the following day having walked back the 30-odd miles they said "Great, that's Christmas dinner ruined... happy birthday"
"that's right Scoob, we're dealing with one sick son-of-a-b1tch!"
Ian Colquhoun you should have said “son of a fish” noooo you had one job
Something fishy about that guy.
Nice pun 👏
Definitely left a bad taste in my mouth
Bad.
Funny, but bad. lol!
BOB! Praise His Sweet Name!
Bless your sweet soul, fellow punster
I’m more shocked that the parents of grace let her go with fish it should have been major red flags after he was calling a 8 year old “ pretty “
A lot of people call babies pretty, though.
That is not a red flag to me personally.....but I would not have let my child go with him
Biden regularly calls little girls "pretty" and other odd things. People tend to ignore what is in plain sight until they can no longer ignore it.
Also have to take the context of the time period into account here. Majority of people didn't even lock their doors back then
Things were different where saying a little girl was pretty kinda felt like they were their kid or were really kind to kids. Really they probably saw him as a nice grampa
Dude, I just wanted to add, that he was shocked three times, executioners were shocked that he didn't die on the first and second shocks. Then it was later on discovered on his xrays, that he had pins on his ass, thats why he didn't get shocked during the first and second try.
hope he suffers
@@animefan2454 well he was a masochist so I hope he doesn’t suffer
@@absolutelyshmooie7086 oh there's many ways to make someone suffer without pain
@@animefan2454 true, I just hope he feels discomfort in a way he doesn’t like.
Bollocks. He may have had needles inserted into his groin, scrotum and as you say "on his ass" when the execution took place, however it is commonly reported that he died within the normal range of "shocks" given to a death row inmate at that time.
I'm rarely affected by serial killer stories but this one was just unsettling
achiando raymond You should look up Edward Kemper if you already haven’t. Lived and killed in the Santa Cruz, California area.

He is so terrifying you’d think there would be more documentaries on him.
There's a movie about him called "The Gray Man" made in 2007.
IPA300 is it any good?
Brendan Joyce I don’t know
Chances are most folks were simply too sickened to do any in-depth research on him. Can you blame them?
The less documentary about him the more depraved and sick you will realize he truly was.
Hitler: no one is more gruesome than me!!
Albert Fish: *_HOLD MY VICTIM'S ARM_*
Hitler wasn't even that bad. In fact he was a saint compared to others of his time. All the hype of him is exaggerated in my opinion.
Jaimee he didn't personally kill them though and wasn't the mastermind behind it (Eichmann was). He just gave the thumbs up.
@@tieup5567 It's still pretty bad. Just because he didn't kill them personally shouldn't disqualify him. The Pot guy who murder millions of his own people was pretty bad though.
@@tieup5567 By that logic, Stalin would not be so bad either because he also didn't kill people personally, it was mostly the NKVD that did the killing. To me this kind of logic seems stupid because both Hitler and Stalin agreed to or ordered these deaths.
@@sussus3288 I didn't say Hitler was an angel. I just said he wasn't as bad as people like to believe. He initially just wanted to deport the Jews, and he wasn't the mastermind behind the Holocaust. As for his invading other nations, I don't see it being any worst than what other leaders around the world were doing such as war, Jim Crow, human zoos, and colonization.
He was grey... in both appearances and demeanor...
Also, this guy was a real jerk!

Jerk is an understatement. This dude is practically satan

@@callixvision6481 shut it down
His name was actually Hamilton Howard. He wanted to be called “Albert Fish” after the death of a sibling, who died to escape the nickname “Green Eggs & Ham” .
Junko Enoshima I think there’s a book or movie by the name Green Eggs and Ham written by Dr. Seuss. It’s probably just a coincidence though,
cocoagalaxies V2 there is a movie and book. I really hope it’s a coincidence.
@@cindersnowsMORE
*PFTTTTT 😂*
Green Eggs and Ham was published in 1960. For Albert Fish it was just Ham and Eggs.
this guy was really sick. How is this even real?!
Ayiz A yeah, a real jerk.
The world can be really sick
DopeAnimeMind and a real jerk.
Truth is stranger than fiction, they say. Unfortunately it can also be a whole lot darker & more demonic.
You must be new to the world of serial killers.
Never heard of this guy before.
Now I wish I'd stayed blissfully ignorant.
Plinkitee me too.
I came from the comment section of a vocaloid bruh
i love oliver but i wish i never discovered his song
That's how I feel about you.
well just imagine finding out about this from playing geometry dash in 5th grade and learning the true meaning of the creepy song
The guy was already batshit crazy as a kid. This is one of the more gruesome serial killer stories that really made me sick.
my heart goes out to all the victims 💔
Dose his kind make You Angry
Albert Fish solidified his reputation as the most vicious child slayer in criminal history. Though barely literate, Fish wrote taunting letters to the parents of his victims, gruesomely detailing, how he slayed, butchered, cooked and then with great enjoyment dined on their offspring. He would inevitably declare that a child’s roasted rump was the most TOOTHSOME dish in all of gastro...nomy, gastronomy! Additionally Fish was a masochist, get this, he would insert wool with lighter fluid into his own anus and set it alight for his own enjoyment. Fish was finally arrested and immediately began confessing to killing 700 children.. and he was dizzingly happy about it and smiled as he described the grizzly details of the tortures and murders, appearing to the detective as the devil himself. I mean this Albert Fish guy.. I mean this guy was a real jerk.
Now don’t laugh at this next bit
@@lukeism2and african americans
I was gonna say he murdered more than two, he used to target the poor areas where they let kids just play by the water, or orphans, lots went missing but no one could find out who killed these kids just his description

He was Satan himself
he was exited to go in the electric chair.

@@olliered9924 he loved pain
Mr. Fish makes Jeffrey Dahmer, Ed Gein & John Wayne Gacy look like Boy Scouts

THIS GUY IS FUCKING WORSE THAN...... uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....
This dude is on par with people like Josef Mengele. Even Satan himself probably fears them.
well well well
If you ended these 17 minutes by saying "I mean this guy was a real jerk", it would have been perfection.
The kind of evil that even the devil would be terrified of
@Tom Tom ♾
Tom Tom Satan was created by God. And everything God does is good. So Satan must serve a purpose. If Satan is all evil then God created something evil. Satan has no free-will. We do. This dude is definitely worse than the devil.
@Caleb Mayfield Free-Will, according to the Bible, does not exist -- everything, including us as well as Satan, can only do what God allows -- that is, of course, if you believe in the Bible.
@Tom Tom but Satan is the one who punishes the evil, so why are you calling him evil?
That’s the kind of evil the devil would love to torture for all eternity.
I regret watching this.
@deenman23 That's just it, I don't want to watch more videos like this.
@saganist I cant ever,EVER read or watch anything about Junko again.. my God,
I'm interested in reading about serial killers, murders, but jesus, his parents actually saw her and did nothing🤷♀️
I don't. This just brings my attention to the fact that no matter how old they are, a stranger is a stranger and you shouldn't let your child go with said stranger for any reason. "Looks can be deceiving" they say
Simon's warning at the start of this video, that it was "not pretty" is the understatement of the century.
Horrifying serial killer aside, the detective work that brought him down was seriously good.
i came from a vocaloid song called "the secret of wysteria"
dude.

Why did I choose to eat while listening to this? Obviously there are no disturbing images... but listening to his letter while eating made me feel sick.
🤢
Well, at least we know we will never eat ass quite like him.
I guess I’m just odd that stuff like this doesn’t kill my appetite.
Kimberly Haines nope I’m fine
I had no problem eating while watching this
if his children turned out ok then it's a miracle after being around that while growing up
One of my earliest memories in life (it was 1981, and I was 3) is the tragic story of Adam Walsh... His disappearance, and subsequently, the discovery of his body. The news footage showing the lake of which he was found, is unfortunately etched in my mind forever. Even at a young age I'll never forget the pain that I felt caused his family, in particularly, his father.
My parents had just moved to Florida when that happened. That case is the main reason my mom was a helicopter parent. 😒
Wow, that was one evil man. If you ask me I said he got off light, but if they would have beat him and tortured him he would have just got aroused.
Nah. You just gotta do it right. Slow and steady wins the pain race
Aaron B nah that doesn’t work
Not if he was into sadomasochism. Frankly, no death would have been enough...not even torture.
@J purple ramen that is a good point. Isolation, especially for someone who's already mentally fucked up would really hammer the point home (hopefully)
@Bradley Taft he wouldve died to orgasm
Imagine being one of those kids. My stomach is churning wow
Hannah
He normally goes after children below 6. A 10 year old should be able to strangle him.
Took 9 days for him to finish gracie
@@mgsgamer8340 nah i dont think so A 10 year old is still too weak to fight a grown man
Apparently they hated him. His poor wife.
so is a 16 year old or even an 18 year old. depends how frail the elderly man is. 70s and 80s easily overpowered
He's a living cannibal corpse song
Albert Fish: *Enters Hell*
Satan: *Sweats nervously*
This guy is probably what Satan is scared of at night.
No, Satan has nothing to worry about, considering Fish likes little kids
Albert Fish wrote nasty letters to women in personal ads.

I went from the otaku killer and then in the comment section someone said this guys like a dumbed down version of Albert fish and now I’m here and I hate them both 😂
I read and watched so many documentaries about famous serial killers yet NONE of them made me for sick and needing to lay down than Albert Fish. The fact that Grace's parents believed that he wasn't going to hurt their child is INSANE! This man was so manipulative that he deceived the parents of many children. Lord just typing it makes me sick so my stomach.
Killing children... I can not even begin to comprehend. How is it possible that one can not feel compassion for a suffering innocent child.
Some people lack feelings and empathy.
@@notsureiL Sadly yes. Some people don't have any empathy. That's just upsetting to me.
I wonder why this guy isn’t more well known.
I always thought I was just to grusemome
People would love to not know this
he is. He's known as the boogey man
He doesnt deserve attention.
He's very well known.

“He clearly loved children.”
Well that’s a sick line knowing what this man did
I was looking up Albert Einstein for my 5TH GRADE project and Albert Fish came up on the search bar
I ruined my childhood with ONE CLICK.
Im dead asf on that
very interesting. He was absolutely insane.
I feel like his early childhood messed him up bigtime. Defo should have seen a therapist
Ze Mad Donzo Yeah; his childhood was extremely messed up.
@@lopkobor6916 What was his childhood?
@@pizzachi Very clear his childhood created his sadism. Interesting to study how it evolved into such depravity
5:54 those lucky kids. If they didn’t decide to be little fighters they would have died.
They would have died in a very, very gruesome way... I'm happy for them, but feel so, so sorry for Albert's victims...
I've read and learned so much about so many of these killers that I actually put off watching most of these videos because I got tired of hearing them. Simon just retells the information and brings to light so many other facts and information that most youtubers won't cover. That's what makes his channel different from everyone else.
It's indescribably shameful the way society has and still does allow vulnerable children (& adults) to be abused by those purporting to care for them.
As a doctor, the case is really interesting.
It documents a possible diagnosis of syphilis, leading to Neurosyphilis.. This would explain the hallucinations post prison (since I assume he would have contracted it in prison through unprotected sex), dissociative and sudden change in behavior and personality, dissociative fugue (his visions of him being Christ and being talked to by the Apostles)
I must write though, that given the lack of testing and definitive evidence, this is merely conjecture (even if the symptoms coincide) and while it might have contributed to his deviant behavior, it wasn't an independent determinant.
It would be interesting to present this as a medical case which you guys can present at a later episode, if you let me gloss over your research on this, specifically his incarceration and immediate behavior post incarceration.
Let me know if you guys at the Biographics team would be interested.
To be honest I'd prefer such people get brutally punished and killed. I'm disturbed just by knowing his story I would rather not read any detailed thesis or other statements from him.
GUYS HUSH, A SMART PERSON IS TALKING-
*_I WANNA HEAR THE BIG WORDS-:0_*
Can someone simplify this to my brain size
I Just Thought That He Simply Had Schizophrenia And Psychopath.
OP is trying way too hard.
I looked this guy up on Wikipedia and I was very close to throwing up 🤢. Seriously, that man was sick in SO MANY WAYS.
Truly a fascinating tale, a haunting reminder of just how disturbed the human mind can really get in the right conditions.
This man is the worst of the worst in humanity. There's just no words invented yet to describe this man.
Man the more I hear about this Albert Fish guy, the less I like him.

@@Garrus1995 this video is more of a factoid

The fact that a person like this existed is shocking. It’s even more shocking that there are are more people out there who are like Fish.

“He looked like a corpse propped up in a chair” - I’ve seen quite a few people that fit that description and Mr Fish definitely fits it!
Jury: Why yes, we believe he's insane, but he still deserves the electric chair.... ahhhh the good old days.
That's not the good old days. They only acted when it struck home. Otherwise they were slow to respond to black kids and mentally ill men disappearing.
It was an era marked by brutality and lawless lynchings and Jim Crow. It wasnt good at all on balance. A decade after Fish died there would be Americans who celebrated the Nazis' ethnic cleansing and stuff, on par and one a wilder scale than any serial killer's crimes.
@@alexxa5584 It's funny how people assume that their particular moral stance in the here and now is the absolute 100% correct, unfailing moral stance that needs no introspective. 100 years from now do you honestly think that there will not be things about your worldview that will be morally reprehensible? There were things about life a long time ago that were better, and things that were worse. There are things now that are worse and some better, that's life. There are people on every side of every issue now, as there was then. Condemn an entire era and the entirety of the population of that era at your peril. May you not be judged by the moral failings your are willfully unaware of in a hundred years.

UA-cam is going to cut this video into pieces and eat your ad revenue for this one. Just like Albert Fish.
Quite horribly fascinating: proving yet again, that there really are monsters, and those monsters are not supernatural in origin, but men. How about John Haigh, Neville Cleveley Heath or Gordon Cummins as a future Biography? All interesting, and all equally horrid.
Norm Macdonald brought me here and is a legend! R.I.P. thank you Norm for making all of our lives that much better
I always enjoy your videos, for the information and how you deliver it. May I suggest you ask "Did you find this video interesting?" since asking if it was enjoyed seems to distress you, and might seem callous to some people, tho enjoying learning about anything is human and normal.
I do enjoy this channel, and often watch something here before watching about the same subject on Causal Criminalist. It does help me swallow the horror sometimes presented by serial killers you cover at both channels. I like the more biographical leaning, filling in some blanks about their backgrounds and some movements before and between their crimes. Excellent work by Simon and the writers!
Boy, this guy was a real jerk.
lol came here to say the same thing
First class jerk lord creepy
Thank you I was looking for this comment.
He once killed a child by gouging their eyes out while the boy hung by his hands. This man was the truest sense of evil

He wasn’t just enjoying it... he was getting aroused by it!
There’s a song about this guy by steam pianist called “tales of Wysteria”
I think it's called "secrets of wysteria"
yeah its secrets
"He clearly loved children" and here folks we see the importance of context.
Fish's wife ran off and LEFT HIM WITH HER CHILDREN???? She's no better than he was!
I get what your saying.... Leaving them with him WAS really f♡k'd up!!!! Personally I could NEVER leave my kids when separating from their dad, They're mine and I'd do anything to keep them safe. Unfortunately.... Some people don't share that thought process and just aren't parent material, They don't care for their children And move on.... But to imply that she was as bad as him, Is wrong as there is no evidence to say she ever did anything like kidnapping, Sexually assault/Tortur, Murder or cannibalism.... It sounds likely she would've been oblivious to what he was actually doing until stuff was made public.
Separating from your husband and leaving your kids behind isn't exactly the same as murdering several other children....
Separating from your husband and leaving your kids behind isn't exactly the same as murdering several other children....
Kiri Twidle She probably had no idea, and this was at a time where it would have been near, if not impossible, to care for so many children on her own. It was pretty much practically illegal to divorce for most people at this time (even in cases when BOTH parties wanted it), and Fish probably would have been given custody and she figured there was no reason to fight if that was the outcome. And if he really didn’t, or minimally, abused their children she may not have feared their safety. Or if she did, she may have figured it was near impossible to convince the judicial system and law enforcement.
One must remember what legal rights, or lack thereof, women had at this time. FAR different from today. Very few jobs were available for women, which may have reduced her too begging and perhaps being homeless. How is she supposed to provide for children then? Not she isn’t worthy of some blame, but you guys seem to forget the full extent of what she was up against.
You guys don’t even know if she had a choice or not to keep her children.
I did research on him from hearing about him in a song. I will never forget this man.
It’s quite terrifying just how disturbed and malevolent some human beings can be.
Ever heard of secrets of wysteria?
the reversed one freaks me out
Theres a rumour that the electric chair shorted out because of the needles in his scrote. So they had to give him another jolt

I’m happy to see this video, as awareness to such events are important. However, there are some details missing.
Please do a casual criminalist episode on this 🙏🏼 I am curious to see how your writers and Jen could make an exposé on this.
What an absurdly depraved human. Big appreciation to the staff at Biographics for this one. This is some seriously thorough research done on a man who lived so long ago. Only recently came across this channel, but have already binged watched a ton of these in my spare time. You all do a great job of diversifying the subjects of your research, and Simon Whistler is doing an outstanding job with the narration. You get the sense that the Biographics team is organized, hard-working, and most importantly, passionate about the work being done here. Thank you!

I haven't watched a S.W. video in months, it's been FAR too long, I missed u Simon!
Fish's last words were "I don't even know why I'm here," apparently denoting that he either thought himself innocent of the crimes or that he was undeserving of such a fate
I hope there is a hell just for him. I'm glad he got caught and the jury acted so quickly.
Could you guys do Stanley Kubrick, Sergei Eisenstein or Andrei Tarkovsky please?
yeah Stanley Kubrick would be awesome.
"I've got you now". Okay, but that line was seriously awesome. Like something out of a movie.
I'll be honest this was a very difficult video to sit through. I've watched plenty of serial killer videos but this man's acts were so disgusting, vile and evil that I could not bare it and had to skip through the details on the later cases. I can't believe the level of perversion human beings are capable of. He's truly one of the worst serial killers, and that's really saying something.
This is chilling. I actually feel physically sick
asked for him a while back
aint gonna be a fun one
the thing that disturbed me the most about this case was listening and reading his letters that he sent to the parents
Just crazy to think that someone can be this
Evil to the core. A truly
Reprehensible human being.
Keeps you awake at night knowing these kind of monsters are out there.
