About Forensic Darkness
Dedicated to informing victims with help and resources while exploring the psychology of serial killers and violent crime through research-backed education.
Our Mission
Serial killers don't just hatch overnight—they are the product of years of circumstances and thought processes which makes killing the one thing that drives them forward. This site provides information about the many mental illnesses and personality disorders common among these offenders, as well as help for victims and families.
We as a community need to know our enemy in order to educate our children on how to stay safe. This subject may not be the easiest to digest, but awareness is the first step toward protection.
What is Forensic Darkness?
Forensic darkness is the trauma caused to victims—the shadow that violent crime casts over survivors and their families. Through education and awareness, we aim to bring light to these dark corners of human experience while providing practical resources for those affected.
