What Drives Serial Killer Minds

By Marissa Velazquez


Unbelievably, three out of four serial killers live in the United States and the majority of those can be found in California. These brutal criminals do not look any different than the average citizen and because of that people want to know what goes on in serial killer minds. The facts show that these killers will not stop until they are apprehended and incarcerated or killed themselves.

There are four types of personalities that dominate this class of murderer. The visionary is the one that hears instructions from some higher authority to kill. Generally there will be a specific target that is chosen and the director is usually God or the devil. Mothers and fathers are also sometimes the voice that they hear and these instructions will come from the grave.

Mission oriented motive usually is reported as doing a good thing by ridding society of undesirables. These individuals may single out specific segments of society deemed unclean or unwanted in society. The groups may be prostitutes, gays, a religious sect or ethnicity.

Hedonistic killers are split into three classes. They enjoy killing and inflicting pain for their own amusement. Their groups are lust, thrill killers, and comfort killers.

The lust driven individual enjoys the fear and pain he subjects his victim to and receives sexual gratification from his actions. This person will generally be drawn to taking prostitutes because they willingly get into vehicles with strangers. Most of the pleasure they get is from having complete power over their victims and the amount of pain they can inflict on them for long periods of time. They will usually use a weapon that allows them to be very close for the kill such as their hands.

The thrill killers are driven by the adrenalin rush they get from the fear they can generate when torturing and killing their victims. These kills are usually quick and the person attacked is a stranger. This perpetrator can go for long periods between kills and sometimes works to perfect his technique and commit the perfect crime.

Money and security drive the comfort killers. They prey on their families to gain money and property. The weapon of choice here is usually a poison like arsenic. Some comfort killers have been known to substitute boarders or people they have been hired to care for in order to ensure their personal security.

The fourth group is called media killers because they blame the violent content of movies, games and television for their behavior. The blame theme can be seen in many of the stories told by convicted killers. They blame their parents for not paying enough attention or for being cruel and abusive to them. No one really knows why the serial killer minds have none of the moral stops that most people have. They are psychopathic by nature and do not have the ability to feel empathy for their fellow human being. There is no easy answer for them or society.
