The first diabolical character who intruded himself on my peaceful youth (as I called to mind that day at Dullborough), was a certain Captain Murderer. This wretch must have been an off-shoot of the Blue Beard family, but I had no suspicion of the consanguinity in those times.

Captain Murderer's mission was matrimony, and the gratification of a cannibal appetite with tender brides.
Charles Dickens
