    execute General Zaroff. Perhaps the most obvious piece of evidence states "Good God‚ General Zaroff‚ what you speak of is murder‚"(lines 381-382). To spice it up‚ instead of hunting animals‚ General Zaroff hunts humans‚ and chases them. Rainsford thinks that it is a joke.

    General Zaroff in the story “The Most Dangerous Game” by Richard Connell is a narcissistic-psychopathic devil.
