The Big Book of Serial Killers: 150 Serial Killer Files of the World’s Worst Murderers (An Encyclopedia of Serial Killers 1)
There is little more terrifying than those who hunt, stalk and snatch their prey under the cloak of darkness. These hunters search not for animals, but for the touch, taste, and empowerment of human flesh. They are cannibals, vampires and monsters, and they walk among us. These serial killers are not mythical beasts with horns
There is little more terrifying than those who hunt, stalk and snatch their prey under the cloak of darkness. These hunters search not for animals, but for the touch, taste, and empowerment of human flesh. They are cannibals, vampires and monsters, and they walk among us.
These serial killers are not mythical beasts with horns and shaggy hair. They are people living among society, going about their day to day activities until nightfall. They are the Dennis Rader’s, the fathers, husbands, church going members of the community.
This A-Z encyclopedia of 150 serial killers is the ideal reference book. Included are the most famous true crime serial killers, like Jeffrey Dahmer, John Wayne Gacy, and Richard Ramirez, and not to mention the women who kill, such as Aileen Wuornos and Martha Rendell. There are also lesser known serial killers, covering many countries around the world, so the range is broad.
Each of the serial killer files includes information on when and how they killed the victims, the background of each killer, or the suspects in some cases such as the Zodiac killer, their trials and punishments. For some there are chilling quotes by the killers themselves. The Big Book of Serial Killers is an easy to follow collection of information on the world’s most heinous murderers.

Edge of your seat reading. Iâve read quite a few of Jack Rosewoodâs true crime books-these are primarily shorter works: He has a series in which each volume focuses on one killer and he also has a series of true crime anthologies each examining about fifteen different murderers. This volume is a BIG, big book, a much larger project. Here we have an encyclopaedia of serial killers detailing a huge one hundred and fifty of the most famous perpetrators. The worst of the worst. This has an easy to follow structure with a…
Chock full of facts and so well researched 10/10! Iâve recommended this to all my blog followers, Instagram followers, twitter followers and friends and family that love true crime. Itâs a thick book chock full of information. As a true crime lover, blogger and forensic psychology student I also found this so helpful.
Ok If you just want a list of serial killers, with dates and victims, then this is good. (Think pub quiz info). However it lists the victims on each one at the beginning of each chapter and then again at the end. Doesn’t give much insight into the killers mind and the grammar is similar to what’s expected at high school level. Much repetition within chapters but no consistency on structure throughout.
