Andras Pandy, one of Belgium's worst serial killers dubbed the "Devil's Pastor", died overnight in a jail in northwestern Bruges aged 86, the Belga news agency reported Monday.
Described by psychiatrists as an "asocial paranoid", the preacher of Hungarian origin was sentenced to life in prison in 2002.
He was convicted of killing his two wives, two sons and two step-daughters, and of raping three of his natural or adopted daughters, in a string of attacks in the late 1980s.
The trial heard how some of the victims' remains had been dissolved in acid baths while others had been chopped up and left in gutters.
His daughter Agnes was also found guilty of five of the six murders and was jailed for 21 years. She was a key witness against her father.
The pair were only arrested in 1997 following the Marc Dutroux paedophile scandal which stunned Belgium and prompted police to reopen inquiries into several other unsolved disappearances.
Agnes was released on parole in 2010.
