Can anyone name a famous murder - real or fictional - who murdered his sister? | ||

If memory serves me correctly, the narrator of 'By Bizarre Hands' by Joe R. Lansdale. There is actually a book of crime stories about girls who slew their brothers. It was written and self-published by Lisa Simpson. | ||

The reason I ask is that - in my play wot we're rehearsing at the moment it ends where one of the characters blackmails another character into murdering his own brother - the play as written ends with the line "I've got a new game -it's called Cain and Abel" - At this point the brother walks in - "It starts now." The evil manipulative twat then walks off stage leaving the brothers together... Unfortunately, due to an actor dropping out and a possible replacement being female, I may need to change the line to indicate murdering a sister instead. I did think of changing the line to "I've got a new game -It's called the family butcher" but it just doesn't have the same subtlety. Help! | ||

Michael Myers famously murders his sister in the original HALLOWEEN, but I'm not sure that helps you much. | ||

Haha. Cain and Mabel. This needs some thought. Bundy was probably killing his sister when he killed all those women. His sister actually being his mother; something he didn't find out about till later. | ||

I've decided to stick with the Cain and Abel but appended the line, Abel was Cain's brother, but you know what I'm saying..." | ||

"I guess neither history nor literature hasn't provided us with *my* kind of evil, eh?" |
