A mass murderer it usually means someone like a dictator rarely gets their hands dirty and has some ultimate goal to achieve, usually to rule all the other people, they want to rule and have people on their knees at their behest and never want it to end and they kill large numbers of people, over 100 or thereabouts.
A serial killer enjoys killing specific groups of people, for personal reasons, they are hands on, have an modus operandi, which means a specific way of killing, aka a signature and usually want to be caught down the line and has killed more than 3 people
AnswerOne of the distinct differences between a serial killer and a mass murder is the 'cool down period'.
A mass murder will kill large groups of people at the SAME time. Examples of mass murders: Columbine High School Massacre, Virginia Tech Massacre and the Amish School Shooting. Mass murderers unlike serial killers, rarely have a sexual motive for their killings.
A serial killer will kill, experience a cool down period, and sometime later (days, weeks, months) kill again. Examples of serial killers: David Berkowitz (Son of Sam), Ted Bundy, and Dennis Rader (BTK Killer).
AnswerOver 20% of serial killers are black, the rest are mostly white. Often a serial killer will go after particularly prostitutes (easy prey) such as the Pickton Murders in Port Coquitlam, B.C., Canada where well over 50 prostitutes were murdered. Serial killers will stock their victims and will kill several in a month, while others will kill missing a month or so, then kill again, stop (possibly for a year or more and sometimes up to 5 - 10 years), and some disappear. The Green River Killer was such a person and was not caught until years later. Serial killers generally have no prior record of a sex offence if arrested (they are still considered potential serial killers because of psychological testing they go through). If the particular killer is caught he will admit he will kill again. Many serial killers actually detest women for one reason or another and enjoy the sense of power they have over each victim instilling as much fear and suffering as they possibly can. Most of these women seem to be a powerless group of society who tend not to have much prestige (this statement is by a psychiatrist on serial killers). They often will pick on women who live alone. There is no age limit for most serial killers and they generally will kill women in their late teens even up to woman of the age of 80 or more. It is also said that the serial killer has had some traumatic event in early childhood, but some psychiatrists disagree and feel that serial killers were born without much of conscience. There is definitely a rise of serial killers and especially in the U.S., simply because there is a loss of sense of community (people move to towns or cities and don't know anyone) or people tend to make strangers of one another. Serial killers do not have a rage to lash out; are generally married with a wife and children and could be the good guy next door. They are normal around others, go to work, have a social life, but have what they consider a 'task' to do when the urge appeals to them.
Mass Murders have no conscience and most are young (many in their teens.) An example is Columbine. A student (or 2 - 3 students) angry at the teacher and their classmates will open fire on a full classroom. There had been an outbreak in the U.S. and Canada during the 1980s of a rise in Postal Workers (disgruntled) opening fire inside the Post Office and killing several people at random. They hate and they want to get even. They are sociopaths in nature. They are generally 'different' from the rest of society, loners and tend to have a quiet demeanor about them. There is no warning when a Mass Murderer decides to kill. Mass Murderers can also kill their own family members without remorse, whereas Serial Killers do feel some remorse and guilt, but can't seem to help themselves. Mass Murderers premeditate their actions and actually plan what they are going to do out of sheer hate. A serial killer takes their time choosing a victim, follows them for a several days or even weeks before killing them.
A serial killer is a person who murders three or more people over a period of more than 30 days, with a 'cooling off' period between each murder.
AnswerMass murderers kill in one location over a short period of time. Typically, most mass murderers use guns to murder their prey, but in some cases, like the massacre of eight student nurses in 1966 by Richard Speck, the murderers also use knives. Single acts of terrorism are also considered mass murder, like the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing and the 2001 World Trade Center attacks. Other notorious mass murders include the 1964 Cologne school massacre, 1984 San Diego McDonald's massacre, 1986 Edmond U.S. Post Office massacre, 1989 Standard Gravure shooting, 1989 Ecole Polytechnique massacre, 1991 Killeen Luby's massacre, 1991 Strathfield Shopping Mall massacre, 1993 101 California Street shootings, 1993 Long Island Rail Road massacre, 1994 Cave of the Patriarchs massacre, 1996 Dunblane Primary School massacre, 1999 Columbine High School massacre, 2001 Nepalese royal massacre, 2002 Erfurt school massacre, 2007 Jokela school shooting, 2008 Kauhajoki school shooting, 2008 Covina massacre, and the 2009 Fort Hood shooting.

What are the Psychological Phases a serial killer goes through?
Long before a serial killer kills for the first time, he has been satisfied with violent fantasies. When those fantasies can no longer satisfy him he needs to find a victim and kill for real. After the kill he will have a period of relative calm. At this point he may relive the kill with any trophies have may have taken from the victim. But as time goes on the need to kill begins to build again and the hunt starts again. This process will continue until he is incarcerated, whether in prison or mental hospital, he dies or he loses the need to kill as he ages.More information.Psychologist Joel Norris in wrote the Psychological Phases in 1988. There are hundreds of papers in the internet describing this:1. Aura PhaseThe to-be-killer begins with an aura phase, in which there is a withdrawal from reality and a heightening of the senses. It means that the killer distances him/herself from social interactions. Nevertheless, friends, family and those who encounter this person, may not be able to detect this person's change in personality. The killer becomes antisocial and life no longer has meaning to him. This phase may last anywhere from several moments to several months and can begin as a prolonged fantasy, which may have been active for a short time or for years. These fantasies often include sadistic sexual and other violent acts which possibly derive from early childhood experiences. The killer may attempt to medicate himself with alcohol or drugs which often lead to an intensification of the fantasies. After a while they have the urge to be acted upon.2. Trolling PhaseThis leads into the second stage, which is the called the trolling phase. In this phase, the killer tries to find a victim. Most serial killers will search for a victim in places he is familiar with or where he feels comfortable (the so-called comfort zone may be around the killer's neighborhood, in a certain district or area). They will also look for a particular discreet location to perform the murder and to a perfect place to dump the bodies. They usually tend to look in school yards or lovers lanes or even red light districts. This might go on for hours days and sometimes even months, until the perfect victim will be found. In the trolling phase the serial killer often follows a behavior pattern used to identify and stalk his victim. Norris described how Ted Bundy strapped his arm in a sling and asked for help with books, packages, or even the hull of a sailboat to lure the victim into his car. Some victims escaped and said he never seemed out of control until the moment he actually attacked them.3. Wooing PhaseIn the wooing phase the killer tries to win the confidence of a victim before luring it into a trap. This phase is only done by the organized killers who are much more confident, more daring, and has better social skills than disorganized killers. The killer tries to socialize with the victim and - as stated before - tries to gain his victim's trust. This is a very important phase because the organized killer often seems to only proceed to kill those who allow him to gain their trust. "When homicide detectives finally begin to uncover a pattern of serial murder, one of the first things they notice is that the victims rarely seem to have struggle against their killers" (Norris 29). Once the trust is received, the killer will then lure the victim into quiet and secluded area where the killer uncover his/her mask and moved on to the next phase.4. Capture PhaseThe fourth phase is the capture phase. This is where the killer reveals what he is. The capture of the victim can be as swiftly as snapping a handcuff on the victim's wrists, or a blow that renders the victim helpless. The killer may draw his victim into his car which has no door handle one could use as an escape. He usually savors this moment. It is disturbingly fun for him and is included in his sadistic needs. The victim may be taken to a new location, far out from people and help. Once the killer is sure that there's no way for the victim to escape, he move to the climax phase of the cycle, the murder.5. Murder PhaseNorris described the murder phase as the ritual reenactment of the disastrous experiences of the killer's childhood, but this time he reverses the roles. The killer may decides to kill his victim instantaneously, but sometimes he will torture his victim to death, tries to revive it on the brink of death and continue with the torture (Scott). A disorganized killer is more likely to kill the victim instantaneously by a powerful attack or a quick strangulation. It is likely that the corpse is heavily "depersonalized" by mutilations of face and body (Vronsky). Any violent acts such as rape are often taken place after the victim is dead (necrophilia). The organized killer commits a much slower and more painful murder act. The victim is most likely to be tortured and raped before death. In his case the act of killing is delayed because the murder itself it often not the motive of the crime; rather, it is the torturing that the killer enjoys most. This is especially true in the sadistic killers, the most organized of all killers. This type of killers will keep their victims alive as long as possible - sometimes revive them from injuries, keeping them just alive enough to feel the pain from the tortures. The sexual sadistic killers will resources to different equipment's, such as electrical wire that they brought with them to the crime site. "The most prevalent forms of sexual acts inflicted on the victim, in order of case frequency, are anal rape, forced fellatio, vaginal rape, and foreign object penetration" (Vronsky 314). Eventually, when the killer finished with the tortures, he proceeds to kill.6. Totem PhaseThe next phase Norris described is the totem phase. After the kill, the excitement of the killer suddenly drops and he wakes up from his fantasy. He is likely to sink into a depression, which is why some serial killers develop a ritual to preserve their fantasy. They may collect their victim's possessions such as clothes and save news clippings about their crimes. Some serial killer cut off their victim's body parts to preserve and/or consume them. Others take pictures or videotape the crime. The trophy is meant to give the murderer the same feelings of power he experienced at the time of the kill and to remind him/her that the fantasy is real, and he/she really did fulfill it.7. Depression PhaseThe last phase before the serial killer starts over again is phase seven, the depression phase. There is a great emotional letdown for the killer. The depression phase can last for days, weeks, or even months. They may even become so depressed as to attempt suicide. A victim, now killed, no longer represents what the killer thought he or she represented, and the memory of the individual that tortured the murderer in the past is still there. Ressler compares the murder to a television serial with no satisfactory ending because the serial killer experiences the tension of a fantasy incompletely fulfilled. In each subsequent murder, he attempts to make the scene of the crime equal to the fantasy. Norris notes that there is an absence of the killer's sense of self and, during this phase, the killer may confess to the police before the fantasies start once more. However, because victims are not seen as people, recollections of murders may be vague or viewed as the killer having watched someone else. Eventually, the killers will fall back into their fantasies and proceed to the murder again. Each time after the murder, the fantasy will become more real and the murder will become more brutal, the cycle continues on and on until the pattern gets interrupted. The killer's interruption included getting caught, or simply the killer is "burnt out." When the killer is "burnt out," he/she withdraws from killing, and possibly commits suicide. This is one of the reason there are many unsolved serial murder cases. However, the chances are that the killers will not stop killing on his/her own. Serial killing is an addiction, and the killing patterns will be continued.
