Stephen Haver
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stephen Haver is a fictional character in the television soap opera One Life To Live, portrayed by Matthew Ashford. He is a serial killer known as the Music Box Killer, who strangles his victims (all female college students) with a red leotard and leaves a music box by their bodies.
Haver is a psychology professor at Llanview University (whose female students he chose as victims) who specializes in human sexuality and researches serial killers and sexual predators. Ironically, the police consult with him on the so-called "Music Box Murders" that he himself commits.
Haver blackmails several of his female students, demanding sex in return for a passing grade. When one such student complains to a friend, student reporter Jessica Buchanan, Jessica decides to investigate.
Haver also committed another series of murders, earning him the nickname "the White Rose Killer," whom new Chief of Detectives John McBain was investigating during his tenure in the FBI. McBain called the White Rose Killer out in a press conference. Haver responded by murdering McBain's fiancée Caitlin in her bed while she was sleeping next to McBain. This gave McBain a personal vendetta against all serial killers, which further intensified after Haver was exposed as both the Music Box Killer, and the man who murdered Caitlin.
