They say a man is often measured by the way he treats and takes care of his family. In the Season 4 Finale of True Crime Horror Story, your host JD Horror tells the story of three cases of Family Annihilators. Some called them dad... some called them brother... some called them son... but in the end the world would call them by their true name: Monsters.

Case #1: Poor Little Rich Boy - The Van Breda family lived in a ritzy gated community in South Africa. The kind of place you would feel safe to raise a family in. That was until 20 year old Henri placed a call to emergency services with the shocking claim that invaders had hacked his family to death with an axe, but the truth was much more disturbing. (Henri Van Breda, Stellenbosch, South Africa)

Case #2: The Mockingbird Hill Massacre - Ronald Gene Simmons' wife and children lived under the constant threat of his abuse. When his wife Becky finally decided that she had enough, all she wanted was one last family Christmas before fleeing his iron hand. Unfortunately, it would lead to the deaths of the entire Simmons family. (Ronald Gene Simmons, Arkansas, USA)

Case #3: Deadly Deception - Jean Claude Romand build his extravagant life on a series of lies, but his castles in the sky would eventually come crashing down not just for him but for his entire family. (Jean Claude Romand, France)
