Alan Anderson

Alan Anderson is a serial killer and occasional serial rapist who appeared in Mr. & Mrs. Anderson.

Background
Little is known about Alan's background, other than he worked as a tow-truck driver and first started killing women in 1989, which was presumably the time he met his future wife Judith, who likely became his partner by that time. The two married in 1994 and began killing more frequently, murdering a total of ten women by 2010. However, during that sixteen-year span, Alan felt emasculated by Judith, who was demanding, and this prompted him to kill other victims outside of Pennsylvania. During one such murder, Alan raped a woman named Holly Franklin and apparently tried to kill her, but she escaped. In 2010, Alan tested positive for a sexually-transmitted disease, which caused him and Judith to stop killing together, although he continued to kill without her. Their relationship became even more strained, and they eventually started seeing multiple marriage counselors; by 2014, they were seeing Kathleen Benedict, who specialized in insight therapy, which caused them to rediscover their love of killing together, thus motivating them to start killing again.

Modus Operandi
When he killed with Judith, Alan would usually pick up runaway women from bus stops or gas stations. He would then take them to a motel he and Judith were staying at, where the two would shelter them and get them to take a shower. Once they emerged from the shower, Alan would then strangle them to death with a belt. Afterwards, he and Judith would have sex. In the case of Johnny Matthews, his sole male victim, he allowed Judith to pick the victim. When he killed alone, Alan would rape the victims and stab them.
