True crime fans in Carlisle will be able to get their fix as the increasingly popular serial killer talks are returning once again – this time, with an all-new talk about the childhoods of the most notorious serial killers.
Serial killer expert Cheish Merryweather (as seen and heard on BBC) will help explain how an innocent child can grow into a cold-blooded killer.
Taking place at The Tullie House Museum and Art Gallery, on Friday, April 29; this two-hour talk will look at the childhoods, adolescent years and shocking crimes of Ed Kemper, Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, Aileen Wuornos, Richard Ramirez, John Wayne Gacy, the Yorkshire Ripper Peter Sutcliffe, Richard Kuklinski and Fred and Rose West.
There will also be live psychological games to play to help the audience find out if they have the mind of a serial killer.
Cheish said: “Our talks have become so popular and the one question that is asked more than others is: ‘Are serial killers born or made?’ This nature vs nurture debate is one we hope to finally find an answer to on this evening.
“Nobody is born evil. We will look at the childhoods, adolescent years and shocking crimes of the following serial killers to determine exactly what went wrong along the way. Revealing the shocking truth of what really took place behind closed doors.”
