Background: On June 3, 1928, ten-year-old Grace Budd was abducted from her Manhattan home by serial killer Albert Fish—operating under the alias "Frank Howard"—marking one of the most haunting cases in American criminal history. Dubbed by the press as "The Boogey Man," the "Gray Man," the "Brooklyn Vampire," and the "Werewolf of Wysteria" (referencing the Westchester site where he committed the horrific murder), Fish slipped under police radar for six years due to his unassuming, grandfatherly appearance. The turning point occurred in 1934 when he sent an anonymous, graphic confession letter to Grace’s mother, allowing Detective William King to trace the envelope's stationery emblem directly to Fish's rooming house.
