I’ll be updating soon featuring a post about a visit I took to the National Musuem of Crime & Punishment in DC. I’ll try to get the post up this week!

I came across this interesting Wikipedia page that lists serial killers by country. It’s not very detailed and really just provides names and a short description of the crime(s) but here are a few samples. Australia: Backpacker Murders (Ivan Milat) – killed at least seven tourists in Belanglo State Forest Truro murders (James Miller and [...]

I came across this article and thought it was rather interesting. I can’t wait to see the information once the database is complete and released. I just hope he doesn’t think that he coined the terms “black widow” or “blue beards” because those have been around for decades. Serial-killers database created Radford professor’s list contains [...]

I’ve seen some comments asking if “Helen Remus” was an actual victim of The Green River Killer and she was not. This is from an article discussing the Made For TV movie about the case.

I’ll make posts like these every now and then based on kill counts. Just like with the “By State” posts, I’m going to try and list those that aren’t every day names. David J. Carpenter: In 1961, at age thirty-three, David started demonstrating his psychotic tendencies when he attacked a woman with a hammer. In [...]

Seeing how more people are becoming interested in serial killers and how they work, more colleges are offering serial killer related classes. Most of these classes are part of the colleges Criminal Justice Programs. Southern Oregon University is one of these schools. They offer a class called “Serial Killers.” According to the school website: This [...]

I’ve come across two different “Top 10″ lists featuring serial killers. I’m sure more are out there but these are the first two I came across. The first list is called Top 10 Serial Killers You May Have Missed. Some of the people featured on this list include Andrei Chikatilo from Russia who has murdered [...]
