Distorted psyche and respectable lifestyle, cold-blooded cruelty and unremarkable appearance, extreme sadism and the ability to charm people. Each serial killer is unique, but they share common traits that evoke horror and curiosity in us.
Richard Estep explores the profiles of...
notorious maniacs to examine the similarities and differences in their motives, behaviors, and methods of committing crimes. His goal is to understand the deep mechanisms of the human psyche and the circumstances that shape the future serial killer. The stories of Jack the Ripper, Jeffrey Dahmer, Killer Clown John Wayne Gacy, Andrei Chikatilo, and other infamous figures underscore the universality of factors contributing to the making of a killer: an innate tendency toward cruelty, experienced trauma, social isolation, and self-hatred and hatred of others.
This is both a frightening and captivating read, based on detailed research and archival materials, intended for those interested in forensic science, psychology, and the motivations of serial killers.
