Now that you mention it, I can think of one person I've encountered over the years who was like your "Mass Murderer." He was unfailingly polite and an adequate dancer, but there was something about him that set off alarm bells in my head. Loudly. If I couldn't avoid dancing with him, I always felt compelled to go wash my hands immediately after.
If he was at an event, I always lined up a partner in advance to avoid him. Of course, that didn't guarantee he wouldn't be my corner, but it was the best I could do.
