One of the most prolific female serial killers in U.S. history.

Nannie Doss - Her Childhood Years
Nannie Doss was born Nancy Hazle on Nov. 4, 1905, in Blue Mountain, Al., to James and Lou Hazle. Much of Doss ' childhood was spent avoiding the wrath of her father who ruled the family with an abusive iron fist. James gave little thought to pulling the children out of school if they were needed on the farm. With education being of little priority in the Hazle family, it is no wonder Nannie left school after only completing the sixth grade.
Childhood Trauma
At the age of seven Nannie was on a train that suddenly stopped causing her to fall forward and hit her head. After that incident she suffered for years with migraine headaches, blackouts and depression.
Teenage Years
From early on James Hazle refused to allow his daughters to do anything to enhance their appearance. Pretty dresses and makeup were not allowed along with friendships with boys. It wasn 't until Doss got her first job in 1921 that she had any real social interaction.
At the age of 16, instead of attending school and worrying about prom night, Doss was working in a linen factory and spending her spare time with her head buried in her favorite pastime - reading romance magazines, especially the lonely hearts club section.
