I think that my topic on Serial Killers is a fairly easy topic to argue. I want to research the reasons behind what makes a serial killer. Is it nature vs. nurture? I will start by identifying the theories behind what makes up a serial killer. I will also identify 4 main serial killers that have made history and what if anything do they have in common. I think I would need to nerrow it just a bit in order to focuse on the argument. I will start by researching indivduals and find there common factor.

Research topic

The topic I have chosen to research is on the psychological aspect on what creates a Serial Killer. I have chosen this topic because I believe something in our lives helps us to become what we are. This is also a fascinating topic to me and I would like to learn more. When I started reading books on and about Serial Killers is when I got interested in them.
Everyday individuals walk around; go to work, and many other things. However, it would be hard to know if there was a stalker or Serial Killer walking right be side you. To be honest there is not a whole lot I know about what makes a killer. I can only figure there was something that happened in that person’s life they could not let go of. When trying to understand where a serial killer comes from you must understand their past.
I am hoping to learn more about what makes killing so exciting to serial killers. Also, what do each killer have in common along with what are the different techniques and why. Mainly I want to learn more on the psychological thinking of serial killers.
