Kilyle: Can't recall the book, but one of the many books on writing I've enjoyed suggested The Avenging Angel as a plot, wherein a stranger (often supernatural) comes to town, kills all the immoral townsfolk, and leaves. I don't watch horror myself, but I understand this to be one possible version of the Slasher Story, and therefore would like to see it added to this page, if indeed it fits.
