The North Bend Reaper likely began his first string of murders sometime in the late 1980s, and was confirmed to have claimed the lives of at least seventeen people by the time that it was finished. Near the end of this killing spree, he murdered a young woman who was related to a group of brothers named the Thompsons, and was chased into the woods shortly after the men discovered him taking photographs of her corpse in the basement of their home. However, the Thompsons' attempts to catch their sister's killer were ultimately unsuccessful, and The North Bend Reaper was never found or captured after a massive manhunt extending throughout a majority of the town took place. He would then lie low for an unspecified amount of time before he planned to begin another killing spree at the location of a summer camp, where an interactive murder mystery party based on his original unsolved killings was announced to be hosted.
