The Deadly History of a Little Known Killer in Arkansas Faulkner County native Red Hall was a serial killer who confessed to murdering at least 24 people. Most of his victims were motorists who picked him up as he hitchhiked around the United States. In the closing months of World War II, he beat his wife to death and went on a killing spree across the state. His signature smile lured his victims to their doom, and even after his capture, he maintained a friendly manner, being described by one lawman as "a pleasant conversationalist." Author Janie Nesbitt Jones chronicles his life for the first time and explores reasons why he became Arkansas' Hitchhike Killer.
