I'd say seriel killers are bloodthirsty but their thirst is never quenched,
Like an addiction for them,
They keep looking for the next buzz,they might get more daring each time and one is never enough ,
They may think thete indestructible ,,invinsable ,what makes a seriel killer ,I'd say there are many reasons as to why one individual is predisposed to it.
The Minnesota Twin Study project originally led by Minnesota Professor of Psychology Thomas Joseph Bouchard, Jr., has shown that psychopathy is 60 percent heritable. This percentage indicates that psychopathic traits are due more to DNA than to upbringing. Recent genetic studies of twins indicate that identical twins may not be as genetically similar as hitherto assumed. Though only a couple of hundred mutations take place during early fetal development, the mutations likely multiply over the years, leading to vast genetic differences. This leaves open the possibility that psychopathic traits are largely genetically determined.
While the root causes of the psychopathology are unknown, they all share common traits, chief among them is a lack of empathy.

While I will put my hand up and confess to watching many us cop shows on serial killers ! Not certain about DNA but a very big mass murderer from Australia then Germany in the 1930s and 40's . Parents were reported to be uncle and niece . Does make you think !
And the experts think Serial killers get away with it because they blend in are charming people like them . Unlike p*dophile when u see them on the TV news they look slimy
Benny1518: We have heard of Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy and Jeffery Dammer. These guys were amongs the most infamous serial killers that ever walk the Earth. What cause them to become so evil.
I have 2 choices; 1-being born-killers 2-copy-cats
Benny1518: Galrad.. We don't know what spawn serial killers but the havoc they creates around the world is unbelievable evil
er, k, I agree .... which is probably why I added 'maybe' to my remarks about otherwise and natural born.... in addition to the trailer for Oliver Stone's vision and movie 'natural born killers'.
Bungallow.. On behalf of all CS member we wish you prosperity and long life and 5000 volt of electricity. No. that would be "cruel an unusual punishment." Make it 10,000 volts.
