English children have different fascinations and Little Graham Young was no exception...he loved to play with poison. In fact, he spent more time with his chemistry set than with people.
By the age of 14, he killed his stepmother and had poisoned many who were close to him. Placed in a psychiatric hospital, he secretly studied toxicology for seven years but was considered "cured" of his obsessions. As a free man, he went on to seek revenge for every year he was imprisoned and began quietly lacing teacups with poison. He is one of London's most notorious serial killers and is in Madame Tussauds Chamber of Horrors.
