While searching the web for some information on murder and serial killers for a research that I was doing I came across a site that had everything I wanted or needed to know and much more. The name of this site is Serial Killer Central. Today I will be talking to Joe the owner and administrator of this site. First I would like to thank you for taking the time to speak with me about your site SKC.

Joe this is the first site that I have found that has all this information on so many serial killers,

What was your inspiration for this site and how hard was it to build this from a idea or dream to a reality?

In 1997 I started writing to a few killers. A friend of mine named Kyle, who's passed away now, said I should make a site and show the things I've gotten from the killers. I told him I'd do the content if he made the images for the site. With that, SKC was born. For about 7 years it was a basic Angelfire website, then I bought a domain name and changed the format of the site to a more user interactive site...comments, submissions, forums...Since then the site has gotten bigger and bigger and given me more inspiration to work on it.

So have you dug up all this info or do you allow members and visitors contribute to the site as well? If so how do you find time to keep up with it all?

Both. A lot of the stuff is original stuff that I've put online from documents I've gotten through trades or bought from other people. A lot of time members will submit news articles, photos, and biographers to post, I try to read through them before adding them though.

Who are some of the serial killers that you have written and if you don't mind letting us know what did they send you ?

In the past 10 years I've corresponded with around 300 different serial killers, mass murderers, or other notorious killers. One of the strangest items is from Jeremy Jones...it's a tracing of his dick on a sheet of paper, covered in semen.

Who has been the most insightful sk that you have written and can some of the letters, poems and art be viewed on the site?
