Creepy Artifacts

John Wayne Gacy's clown paintings, Ted Bundy's autographed Christmas cards, the Zodiac Cipher, the ladder used in the Lindbergh baby kidnapping, the false teeth of a female serial killer from 1908, the documented confession of Elizabeth Short's killer, the shotgun used to shoot the Cutter family, and many other items that once belonged to famous killers or were somehow connected to their crimes.
In a time when police hadn't yet figured out how to cordon off crime scenes, hunters for "souvenirs" would gather at the sites of brutal murders, taking with them every piece of potentially important evidence. For example, after the Deering family murders, "a man hastily knelt down on a pile of straw and dung, found a bloody straw, carefully wrapped it in paper, and even more carefully placed it in his vest pocket."
