Category:Serial Killers

Characters who happen to be serial killers. A serial killer is defined as someone who murders three or more people over a timeline of over a month and including a significant break (known as a "cooling off period") between them. These are usually committed to assuage some form of abnormal psychological gratification. Some sources, such as the FBI, disregard the "three or more" criterion and define the term as "a series of two or more murders, committed as separate events, usually, but not always, by one offender acting alone".
