Interview With a Serial Killer

In the dim, sterile confines of a prison visiting room, I sat across from a man whose notoriety was as chilling as the steel bars surrounding us. He was calm, almost disarmingly so, as if the tales of his gruesome crimes were nothing more than exaggerated whispers. His eyes, though, held a flicker of something dark and predatory, a glimpse into the abyss that resided within him. As I delved into his psyche, I felt an inexplicable pull towards the macabre, a fascination with the mind that could conceive such heinous acts. Yet, beneath the morbid curiosity, there was an overwhelming sense of sorrow, for I knew that the man before me was a shattered vessel, a soul lost to the darkness he had created.
