They Took 90 Photos in the Dark... The Disappearance of Kris Kremers and Lisanne Froon

The Man Who Wanted to Hunt the Homeless

In December 2025, a disturbing Reddit post began circulating in Louisville, Kentucky, warning that a serial killer may have been targeting unhoused people near Interstate 65. Days later, a man named Michael Howard was found dead in a homeless encampment. His body had been mutilated, and investigators would later link the killing to a suspect who allegedly expressed a violent fascination with serial killers and a desire to “hunt homeless people.” According to Louisville Metro Police, 21-year-old Michael Hristov was identified as the primary suspect in the case. Investigators allege he also posted online about ongoing attacks before they were publicly confirmed, effectively inserting himself into the narrative as fear spread through the city. Authorities later stated they found forensic evidence linking Hristov to the crime scene, including DNA evidence and digital material recovered during the investigation. Police also reported that Hristov died during a standoff with law enforcement in May 2026 after allegedly opening fire during an attempted arrest.
