The Story Of Kendall Francois, A Serial Killer Who Terrorized A Small New York Town, Is Truly Frightening
In the first few months of 1997, young women began disappearing from the Hudson Valley region. All of the girls who vanished were small-framed white women with brown hair. Within just a few months, multiple women who shared a physical resemblance were missing and police began to suspect a serial killer. With no bodies or crime scene found, it was a difficult case to solve. By the time the monster was caught, eight women had tragically lost their lives.
Poughkeepsie is a small city in the Hudson Valley region. It has a population of around 30,000. The beautiful area is popular with tourists, but some truly terrifying things have happened here.
In September of 1998, a young woman escaped from a home near Vassar College. She claimed she had been abducted and strangled, only just escaping with her life.
Francois lived in the home with his family, but the house was filthy inside and filled with trash. Apparently, the trash was so plentiful that it hid the odors of the decaying bodies!
