Externally, the serial killer may look perfectly ordinary man - a good worker, a sociable neighbor, a good citizen. But thoughts of his crazy fantasies of bloody.
You can be rest assured bath is perfectly safe... unless, of course, will not slip on the soap.
...excitement that erupted around the property of the infamous "black widow" Belle Gunness after the exposure of her misdeeds. Thousands of residents of the Midwest in vans, in cars and on special excursion train rushed to the farm, where they found a sad end to more than a dozen victims. Everyone could admire the excavated graves and decomposed remains are put on display in the barn. After seeing these "attractions," visitors had the opportunity to arrange a farm family picnic. And wishing to buy a souvenir were presented with a picture of the dismembered victims of Gunness. The local Sheriff, he happily commented: "I've never seen to people so have fun!"
...we can safely say: this is a terrible world.
If a child, barely learned to walk, give up a porcelain vase, it will break it up into small pieces. Just behave and serial killers. They like to break stuff. And human beings for them - it's just a breakable object, it is suitable to take it apart for fun.
...destruction is the meaning of life serial killer! A favorite target of his - the other man, but if there is not a suitable victim, it will fit perfectly and inanimate object. To set fire to a couple houses are a way for serial killers to satisfy the passion for destruction.
Why do some serial killers remain uncaught? We can assume that they just decide to stop, they haven't been caught. However, this is unlikely. After all, killers, maniacs accustomed to death as alcoholics to alcohol, and it is doubtful that any of them wanted to abandon this deadly game voluntarily. It is more likely that a serial killer one way or another are forced to stop. The killer may be in jail on another charge or get into a psychiatric hospital. Or (like any other mortal), he may suddenly leave this world (it is not excluded that on their own).
...sadly, some serial killers remain uncaught. And in such cases it often happens that the maniac continues to occupy the popular imagination that gives rise to various rumors, myths and even fairy tales.
The psychology of serial killers is a disgusting mix of mental disorders and the devil's cunning, so it is difficult to understand when their strange behavior in the court room due to a painful condition, and when they just pretend play.
It's not surprising that serial killers often commit suicide. Feelings of despair, hatred and disgust for themselves, they originate in childhood when their disgusting parents, constantly humiliating and insulting them, inspire them that they are garbage, rotten garbage.
Author caused a lot of criticism of the book "American psycho" Bret Easton Ellis is actually a very aptly that a serial killer is a symptom of the "spirit of time".
Some criminals attracted special attention in society because it reveal the darkest instincts and subconscious phenomena specific to people of a particular country at a particular time. Like any national hero or celebrity, they personifiziert "Zeitgeist".
We do not consider the interest of the Americans to the serial murders deviation from the norm. Rather, it is a modern manifestation of old-world properties of human nature. Moreover, this interest cannot be called unhealthy, because of the history, stories, jokes and films about the nightmarish things help people to get rid of suppressed fears. In America of the late twentieth century the serial killer has become the embodiment of extremely heavy, disturbing state of public morals - with the rampant crime and an increase in sexual violence. And if people are drawn to the figure of a psycho killer, this does not mean that they are mired in violence and sadism (although it is impossible to deny that the tendency inherent in the depths of the human psyche). Most likely, these people are like kids, and kids love to hear scary stories, read books and watch movies about serial killers to gain control over your fears.
