A text which explores the serial killer as an American cultural icon. Tithecott considers the ways in which the American media has dealt with examples of real and fictional serial killers, and argues that the serial killer we construct for ourselves is a figure both repulsive and attractive who fulfils dreams of masculinity, purity, and violence.
