The Righteous Killer

Write a story about a serial killer who believes they are committing murders for a higher purpose.

Such a premise prompts exploration into the killer’s warped belief system. Why do they believe their actions are justified? Do they see themselves as a divine instrument or as a savior? How do they react when they are pursued or questioned? This theme provides rich possibilities for psychological storytelling and exploring morality, survival, and ends versus means.
