A serial killer is an individual who commits a series of murders over a period of time, typically with a cooling-off period between each crime. Serial killers are characterized by their repetitive patterns and motives, often driven by psychological or emotional gratification obtained from the act of killing.Serial killers tend to choose their victims carefully, often targeting individuals who fit a certain profile or have specific characteristics that fulfill their fantasies or desires.

They may have preferred victim types, such as women, children, or individuals of a certain ethnicity or occupation.The motivations behind serial killings can vary widely, and it is important to note that not all serial killers have the same motives. Some common motives include power and control, sexual gratification, a desire for dominance or to exert authority over others, a need for attention or notoriety, or even a deep-seated hatred or resentment towards a particular group.Serial killers often display certain behavioral patterns and rituals that are characteristic of their crimes.

They may carefully plan their killings, stalking their victims and selecting specific locations where they feel they can operate undetected. Some killers have been known to keep souvenirs or mementos from their victims as trophies, reliving the experience through these items.Profiling and understanding the psychology of serial killers is an ongoing area of study for criminologists and psychologists. Various typologies have been proposed to classify and categorize different types of serial killers based on their motivations, behavior, and other characteristics. These classifications include organized vs. disorganized killers, motive-based typologies, and more.
