Description: A person who commits more than three murders with the killings often separated by long periods of inactivity. Luring victims to their death, they act out extreme sadistic urges and lack any ability to empathise with the suffering of their victims. Serial killers are dark stars of modern culture. Their faces are familiar. We know what the Yorkshire Ripper and Ed Gein did... and how they did it. But what made them act that way? What was the path they took from their childhood to adulthood? Each of the best-known serial murderers has been closely scrutinised by psychologists seeking some clue to what prompted their awful crimes. They provide fascinating testimony about the early years, and reveal whether there is a common pattern in their development. As well as finding out about their past and the details of the horrific crimes that they committed, each programme will takes an in-depth look at the psychology of each killer to try to get an understanding of what drove them down the path to murder? Was it madness? Or was it the culmination of a series of traumatising events in their early lives? Contains actual crime scene footage, high level themes and violence based on true story serial killers.
