About the show

Join expert forensics lecturer Jennifer Rees to explore one of forensic psychology’s most troubling topics - the serial killer.

Using case studies, discover how serial killers are classified, the differences between male and female ones, and the phenomenon of killer couples such as Fred and Rose West, and Ian Brady and Myra Hindley, as well as exploring the Folie à deux syndrome, a.k.a ‘shared psychosis’.

Why do women fall in love with known serial killers? Why do they gain admirers, fan mail, and even spouses in light of their atrocious crimes?

The Psychology of Serial Killers will give even the most dedicated true crime fan new insights into the phenomenon of serial homicide.

Suitable for: ages 14 and over
