Fatal Attraction: The Serial Killer in American Popular Culture If a single figure can be said to exemplify American popular culture’s apparent fascination with violence, it is the enigmatic serial murderer. The mythos that has sprung up around the serial killer is both potent and ubiquitous; representations occur in various forms of media, including fiction, true crime, film and television, music, and graphic novels. So iconic is this figure, that one can even purchase serial killer action figures, trading cards and murderabilia.1 Notably, this is not an entirely niche market; CDs of Charles Manson’s music can be purchased from Barnes & Noble and, in 2010, Dexter action figures were available to purchase in Toys R Us. Indeed, the polysemic serial killer holds such a unique place in the cultural imaginary that he or she has in some ways come to be seen as emblematic of America itself.

"Dearly Devoted Dexter" (Reviewed by Eleanor Bukowsky JUL 15, 2005) “And so I had learned how to dress neatly and smile and brush my teeth. I had become a perfect fake human, saying all the stupid and pointless things that humans say to each other all day long. No one suspected what crouched behind my perfect imitation smile.” Dearly Devoted Dexter , Jeff Lindsay’s second novel, again features Dexter Morgan, a serial killer with a heart of gold. By day, Dexter is a blood spatter analyst with the Miami police department. Under the light of the moon, Dexter listens to his inner voice, which he calls the “Dark Passenger,” as it impels him to track down people who commit terrible crimes without fear of punishment. Dexter happily takes upon himself the triple roles of judge, jury, and executioner. He gleefully dismembers his victims, as well. However, Dexter is distracted when another monster, who makes Dexter look like Mother Teresa, takes center stage. This individual, known by the nickname of Dr. Danco, literally takes his victims apart, one limb at a time. However, he does not kill his victims.
