David & Maureen Smith, 1965 C)(C

Ian Brady had been grooming the younger David Smith, whom he saw as a potential accomplice to assist with bank robberies and murder. Brady and girlfriend Myra Hindley had already killed four children and buried their bodies in the Yorkshire Moors. After Smith married Myra’s younger sister, Maureen, the four became tight.

On the evening of 6 October 1965, Brady brings 17 year old Edward Evans home “for a drink” (translation: To rape and murder him)

Mid-murder, Brady asks Myra to call Dave and get him over. He arrives shortly after with a bottle of red wine. He would soon become the prime witness in the Moors Murders case.

Brady, a depraved psychopath had invited Smith over to watch him kill. He wanted to impress him but also needed help cleaning up the mess. A hatchet to the head was followed by strangulation with electrical cord. The attack was brutal. Brady sprained his own ankle from the physical force it took to kill Evans, who was much older than previous victims. When Brady asks Smith to help dispose the body, Smith agrees, but would later call police from a public telephone booth.

Although Mr and Mrs Smith were fully exonerated, they became the target of much public abuse. They were physically attacked regularly and evicted from their homes. After stabbing another man during a fight, in an attack he claimed was triggered by the abuse he had suffered since the trial, Smith was sentenced to three years in prison in 1969.

In 1990, the couple would be immortalised on the album cover ‘Goo’, by American band Sonic Youth.

I played chess with Graham Young virtually every day. He beat me in some individual games, but never in a series. He chose the black pieces, likening their power to the Nazi SS. He was psychotic rather than Phychopathic. We used to laugh until the tears rolled down our cheeks. Graham dropped dead in his cell one morning. I suspected that he had given himself an undetectable poison. Nothing was found at the post mortem.

He called me some crude things after I tossed the gun aside — a 'worthless cunt' — and said he'd put me on the moors with Pauline if I kept acting out of line. I felt rotten about it, thinking of that dark place and the beastliness of lying there forever, but there was the softest flame inside me, too. Because I had him. In that second and for all time, I had him.

What Happened to the Most Infamous Murder Houses in the UK?

The stories behind the real-life ‘Houses of Horrors’ in 20th century England— and what has become of them since.

Pictured above are the infamous homes in which some of Britain's most notorious killers lived and committed their heinous murders. They are recognised to this day as the real-life 'Houses of Horrors' which were, in the second half of the 20th century, plastered across the front covers of global newspapers from the 1950s through to the 1990s.

In true crime books, podcasts and documentaries, the buildings above are still frequently named in association with the crimes that took place within their walls - these crimes being some of the worst the UK has ever seen.

John Reginald Christie killed and buried eight women at 10 Rillington Place, Ian Brady and Myra Hindley killed two out of five child victims at 16 Wardle Brook Avenue, Fred and Rose West killed at least nine young girls and women at 25 Cromwell Street, and Dennis Nilsen killed three of at least twelve young boys and men in his apartment at 23D Cranley Gardens.

This post details the gruesome history of the houses and also what has become of them since their era of notoriety. The full article is available to read here.

Ian Brady: Literary Indulgences

All men are divided into ‘ordinary’ and ‘extraordinary.’ Ordinary men live in submission and don't have the right to transgress the law, because, don’t you see, they are ordinary. But extraordinary men have a right to commit any crime and to transgress the law in any way, just because they are extraordinary

)c(

There are certain persons who can... that is, not precisely are able to, but have a perfect right to commit breaches of morality and crimes, and that the law is not for them.

)c(

but never try to answer for what is between a husband and his wife, or a lover and his mistress. There is always one little corner which remains hidden from all the world, and is known only to the two of them. Crime and Punishment Fyodor Dostoevsky

Ian Brady's childhood was one of loss and instability. His birth was eclipsed by the death of his father which left his mother unable to care for him. She worked as a waitress for hours a day, but couldn't afford a babysitter to watch her new born. This meant she'd be forced to leave Ian home alone, and after several months she decided to give her son away. With the truth of his identity protected by lies, young Ian struggled to trust authority and had no respect for the rules. He was nicknamed Dracula, for his solemn appearance and love of horror movies. His praise of Hitler didn't win him any friends and he'd learn to survive as an outsider. He despised weak people and loved power. He looked down on society and called them all maggots. Ian became his own god and would create his own kingdom. Without the restraint of common law or morality, Brady was free to act on all his sordid desires.

The discovery of Brady's photography, literature and music provided an insight into his sadistic world. There seemed to be a code between the two killers. Photos of Myra posing on the moors, led police to the burial sites of 3 victims. Were they taken as trophy pics to gloat of their conquests or markers for murder locations ?

Before each murder, Brady would buy Myra a new pop record. This was his way of telling her, he had the urge to kill again.

Somehow relating that quote from Stockholm, Pennsylvania, “I saved you from ever being left behind, from ever being anything but mine”  to when Myra Hindley, the female half of the child-killing lovers wrote “It was as if there was a part of me that didn’t belong to me, that hadn’t been there before and wasn’t there afterwards.”
