Well we don't have serial killers as such, but in the nineteeth century there was a killing so brutal that an expression based on it is still in common usage.
"Sweet Fanny adams" is a replacement word for nothing, but came from sailors usage for unsightly meat rations, and here is where it came from.

Quote:They found Fanny's body in the hop field, horribly butchered. Her head and legs had been severed and her eyes removed. Her eyes had been thrown into the River Wey. Her torso was dismembered and the entire contents of her chest and pelvis had been torn out and scattered across the hop field, with some internal organs found further slashed or mutilated. Her remains were taken to and put back together in a nearby doctor's surgery at 16 Amery Street.
