RetailSHE DEVILS AROUND THE WORLD In this fascinating book best selling author and historian Sylvia Perrini takes us on a journey looking at female serial killers around the world. Serial Killers have always existed but it is only in the last twenty years however, that the term has been widely used. People have always been fascinated and simultaneously horrified by them. They want every last gruesome detail, preferably with accompanying graphics. But it is the female serial killer who horrifies us most of all. Women are after all meant to be the gentler sex, the nurturers of life. Yet, as we read through the various profiles in this book it becomes very evident that this is not always the case. Female serial killers rarely torture although as can be seen in the story of ERZSEBET BATHORY, DARYA NIKOLAYEVNA SALTYKOV and ELIZABETH BROWNRIGG that is not always the case. Female serial killers tend to prefer weapons such as poison, or fatal injections or ‘accidents’. Women serial killers unlike male serial killers, normally attack people that they know such as husbands, children, relatives or neighbors. But again there are always exceptions as in the case of ENRIQUETA MARTI --The Vampire of Barcelona. A truly shocking story. WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF FEMALE SERIAL KILLERS. Views: 19
