I was watching Criminal Minds last night and the episode was about some crazy guy that kidnapped 3 girls, held them in his basement and then made them choose 1 of the 3 to kill. He then dropped hammers down for the 2 to kill the 1. Obviously, I know, this is TV. My question is, has anything like this ever happened? Or like the Saw movies, where there is some psycho that kidnaps and holds people and does weird stuff or makes them kill each other? Anything along those lines ever happen in real life? Just curious because we always this kind of killer on TV, just wondering if it has ever really happened. Thanks, links are great.

Elizabeth Bathory
Jeffery Dahmer
Both come to mind.
Most victims "just" get raped before they die, but torture is common.
Then there is the German Internet Cannibal.Armin Meiwes. which is the most twisted cause his victim was willing.
But the most disturbing is Albert Fish's letter to the victim's family:
Dear Mrs. Budd. In 1894 a friend of mine shipped as a deck hand on the Steamer Tacoma, Capt. John Davis. They sailed from San Francisco for Hong Kong, China. On arriving there he and two others went ashore and got drunk. When they returned the boat was gone. At that time there was famine in China. Meat of any kind was from $1-3 per pound. So great was the suffering among the very poor that all children under 12 were sold for food in order to keep others from starving. A boy or girl under 14 was not safe in the street. You could go in any shop and ask for steak—chops—or stew meat. Part of the naked body of a boy or girl would be brought out and just what you wanted cut from it. A boy or girl's behind which is the sweetest part of the body and sold as veal cutlet brought the highest price. John staid [sic] there so long he acquired a taste for human flesh. On his return to N.Y. he stole two boys, one 7 and one 11. Took them to his home stripped them naked tied them in a closet. Then burned everything they had on. Several times every day and night he spanked them — tortured them — to make their meat good and tender. First he killed the 11 year old boy, because he had the fattest *** and of course the most meat on it. Every part of his body was cooked and eaten except the head—bones and guts. He was roasted in the oven (all of his ***), boiled, broiled, fried and stewed. The little boy was next, went the same way. At that time, I was living at 409 E 100 St. near—right side. He told me so often how good human flesh was I made up my mind to taste it.
On Sunday June the 3, 1928 I called on you at 406 W 15 St. Brought you pot cheese—strawberries. We had lunch. Grace sat in my lap and kissed me. I made up my mind to eat her. On the pretense of taking her to a party. You said yes she could go. I took her to an empty house in Westchester I had already picked out. When we got there, I told her to remain outside. She picked wildflowers. I went upstairs and stripped all my clothes off. I knew if I did not I would get her blood on them. When all was ready I went to the window and called her. Then I hid in a closet until she was in the room. When she saw me all naked she began to cry and tried to run down the stairs. I grabbed her and she said she would tell her mamma. First I stripped her naked. How she did kick — bite and scratch. I choked her to death, then cut her in small pieces so I could take my meat to my rooms. Cook and eat it. How sweet and tender her little *** was roasted in the oven. It took me 9 days to eat her entire body. I did not **** her tho I could of had I wished. She died a virgin.

Not that I am aware of, but there was this really crazy guy who was an extreme sadist who locked women up in his "toybox" and brainwashed then into being sex slaves and then murdered them, he even convinced one of them to continue his work when he wasnt there, he left her instructions on how to "break" them. His victims were tortured very badly

MOST T.V SHOWS, ESPECIALLY CRIMINAL MINDS, CSI TC, ARE BASED UPON ACTUAL CASES.
GO TO SERIAL KILLERS AND SEE HOW CLOSE YOU EPISODE RUNS TO THE SHOW.
I CANNOT THINK ABOUT WHO IT WAS RIGHT NOW BUT HE WAS A VERY RICH PERSON WHO DID THIS SAME TYPE OF SENARIO? 1980'S
