The Psychology of Serial Killers

The FirstOntario Performing Arts Centre presents The Psychology of Serial Killers in St. Catharines Tuesday, October 29.

The Psychology of Serial Killers features a touring masterclass, diving deep into the darkest and most thought provoking of subjects. Recommended for ages 13 and up.

Who are these notorious killers? How does an ordinary neighbour become a mass murderer? During this 90 minute thrilling experience, Dr. Rachel Toles, true crime’s preeminent Psychologist, seeks to help us understand these burning questions:

  • What makes a serial killer?
  • Why do they commit such horrific crimes?
  • What drives them to murder?
  • Do they share common traits that trigger mass-killings?
  • What motivates them to kill over and over again?
  • How do they chose their victims? Is it random or something more sinister?
  • Why do some women fall in love with these convicted killers?
  • And perhaps the most important question of all … why are we so fascinated by serial killers and true crime?
