About two thirds of the way through the story, you could have the main character just deflate after yet another person finds out about the money but soon gathers themselves up to do what needs done.

Every so often when the list of people gets to big, there could be a "Killing Spree" of different secondary characters killing each other off. You don't need specifics, just show someone tossing dirt.

I do think that somewhere close to the end, the main character is seen digging a grave but so many people have been murdered thus far that they uncover a grave from someone else's kill. Or make the ending scene of the main character digging and uncovering the final grave then pulling back to show hundreds of mounds of dirt out in the country side. Kind of like running out of room?

Ways for murder
Stabbings
Shootings
Poison
Blunt force trauma
Torture
Characters getting revenge
Put a little Salem Witch Trials stuff going on
Make references to other great writings

It would be cool to have a wife nag the husband to death, you know he just couldn't take it anymore and kills himself in a creative and gruesome way. Maybe have him tie a rope around his neck, handcuff his hands behind his back, put his forehead on a closet door and his heels back against the closet wall. As the wife is walking through the house nagging and just ragging on her husband, she opens the closet door making the husband fall forward out of the closet, the rope tightens and snaps his neck.

You know a really good movie I liked a lot was "7 Psychopaths". If you haven't seen it, check it out, it's good.

If I think of more stuff, I share it if you want. If my ideas suck just say, "Neb, your ideas suck, go away!"

Call it a thousand.
