What turns a perfectly ordinary person into a killer?
A mother who killed all five of her children.
A 13 year old who stabbed her best friend 27 times.
A disturbed man who murdered his wife, his mother and then seventeen strangers.
Their stories, along with many just as haunting.
Killers Next Door offers a psychological deep-dive into some of the most chilling real-life murderers. Were they evil or casualties of their own fractured minds?
How do morality, justice and responsibility work when free will is compromised?
Drawing from criminal psychology, neuroscience, philosophy, and true crime, it takes you inside the psychological makeup of those who kill, not to excuse their actions, but to understand them. From courtroom dilemmas to the biology of intent, it examines whether murder is ever a product of free choice, or a result of trauma, brain chemistry, and broken systems.
You may never look at crime the same way again. Because the most terrifying killers… aren't hiding in the shadows. They're living next door.
