Best Answer

A serial killer is one who commits a number of murders over a long period of time, with the killings separated by often long periods of apparent normalcy. A mass murderer, on the other hand, is an individual who kills several people in a single event. A spree killer kills in a series of closely connected events. There is presumably no "cooling-off" period in most mass murders, which means there is usually not a high level of preconceived planning for escaping but there is some planning, which can be days, weeks, or months in advance. In serial killers is the opposite most likely in fact that the killers seek escape and murdering again in some other time with no calculating timing for the deed.

Being said so; all killers are danger to society. They make families suffer from the lost of a innocent person. They make calamities happen.

Have serial killers increased?

Since the beginning of civilization there have always been been people missing a few too many brain cells, and become a parasite to society. Feeding on the pain and misery of innocent human prey. there are six kinds of serial killers: The "sadistic lust killer" (like Randy Kraft and Ted Bundy) "gets the most attention and adores the feelings of power and control that killing gives him." "Thrill killers" enjoy terrorizing the community and lashing back at society. The "greed killer" wants money, like the landlady who murders her renters and then cashes their checks. "pedophiliac killers" murder the children they have sex with, usually young boys, to get rid of the witnesses. Then they grow to enjoy killing as much as sex, as "freeway killer" William Bonin did. "Black widow serial killers" are often women who use poison to murder husbands or children, often for control or money. The Unabomber is an example of a "missionary serial killer" who murders for what he believes is a holy cause. The 1980s had seen an increase in serial murders across the country, especially those that involved uniquely gruesome details. From Night Stalker Richard Ramirez, with his penchant for Satanism, to Robert Berdella's torture of imprisoned men, the 1980s seemed to inspire killers to realize their worst fantasies. In 2010 there are serial killers operating in many states and the number are increasing.

What are the potential dangers in society of mass murders and serial killers?

Beside the obvious reason of murder being abhorrent and unspeakably evil, there is the consideration of it's effect on the communities where the crimes occur. Eroding away at neighborhoods, families and individuals as news of the discovery of another body is announced. A very real example of this is the Atlanta Child Murders in and around Atlanta, Georgia, from the years 1979 to 1981, finally ending with the arrest of Wayne Williams. Dispite the FBI's behavioral profile stating the murderer would be an African American, the racial tension mounted as residents became more frightened and desparate, pointing the guilty finger at any white man who was unlucky enough to catch their attention.
