Abstract:This paper analyses the relationship between serial killing and public travel and tourism associated with such criminal activity. The general pattern of public response to serial murder includes reduced shopping and tourism behaviour, due to fear. However, serial murder also stimulates public interest in visiting serial crime sites, and numerous causes of such travel and tourism have been caused by serial murder. Typical serial murder tourism activity includes travel, sightseeing, entertainment, diningm refreshments, lodging, photo-opportunities, and the acquisition of souvenirs.
