I doubt there is an exact origin to it , just one of those expressions to get passed down through generations , probably in England . I remember my mother using the expression when i was younger to describe a situation when someone was screaming in an over dramatic fashion for the purpose of attention . For example ; " That kid in wal-mart was just screaming bloody murder when his mother took that toy away . " I have also heard another simular expression , usually out of anger : " Screaming bloody Jesus ! "
