98. The Vampire of Paris and Gangster Chow Hayes

The Vampire of Paris and Gangster Chow Hayes...

Nicolas Claux was a blood-drinking, cannibalistic hospital worker whose hobbies included desecrating graves and worshipping Satan. Nicknamed "The Vampire of Paris," this death-obsessed ghoul decided to kill someone, because…well it fit his image.

Chow Hayes was a violent, sadistic standover man, and murderer. In 1930, Chow became the first Australian criminal to be described by police as a "gangster". He would graduate from child thug to celebrity criminal by the age of 23 and wreaked havoc on the streets of Sydney for over five decades.
