Spend a deliciously chilling evening with renowned criminologist and serial killer expert, Dr. Scott Bonn, as he takes you inside the minds of the world’s most savage and prolific murderers.
In this thrilling 90-minute show, Dr. Bonn reveals the insatiable, psychological hungers that drive people like Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer to K*ll – repeatedly, with impunity, and without remorse. He explains why most serial killers are either psychopaths or sociopaths, how the two differ, and the powerful influences of nature and nurture on the development of fledgling serial killers. Dr. Bonn reveals that every serial killer is compelled by a unique fantasy need, and he also explains how/why serial killers are able to successfully avoid apprehension, blend into a crowd, and essentially become “invisible.”
Dr. Bonn is a best-selling author, professor, public speaker, and he has interacted with such notorious serial killers as Dennis Rader (“BTK”) and David Berkowitz (“Son of Sam”). He shares shocking tales from his actual experiences with these merciless murderers. Dr. Bonn will also speak about the profile he developed on the “Long Island Serial Killer” - which was written more than a decade before his arrest – and matches the alleged perpetrator, Rex Heuermann, to a T. Dr. Bonn will elaborate on the secrets of how he was able to predict the psychological and behavioral makeup of the Long Island Serial Killer with such incredible precision.
Over the course of the event, Dr. Bonn will help explain our culture’s curious and morbid fascination with serial killers and true crime. Finally, audience members will be allowed to ask anything they’ve ever wanted to know about serial killers – in a dynamic, live Q&A session with Dr. Bonn. Don’t miss out on this exciting event.
