9. Joe Ball – Eaten Alive
Joel Ball was born late 1890 and he was known by several names including “The Alligator Man”, “Butcher of Elmendorf” and the “Bluebeard of South Texas”. Although it is unknown how many women he killed that figure could be as high as twenty. After World War I ended, Bell opened a bar called Sociable Inn in Elmendorf, Texas. Here he had built a pond which contained live alligators and he would often charge people to watch them feed on dogs and cats.
Soon after the opening of the bar many women went missing from the town including barmaids he had hired. In 1938, a sheriff went into the bar to question him about the missing persons but Ball pulled out a hidden handgun and shot himself through the heart. A local man, Clifford Wheeler, was questioned after Ball’s suicide and he admitted to helping with the disposal of two bodies which were fed to the alligators. Wheeler estimated that Ball could have killed as many as twenty women.
Eaten Alive was a 1977 movie was loosely based on the crimes of Ball. Many objected to it’s release labelling it “too gruesome” for release.
