In this chapter, the author compares female serial killers (FSKs) and male serial killers (MSKs) and describes crime location differences as well as victim differences. Most MSKs targeted at least one stranger, whereas only a small percentage of FSKs did. In contrast, most FSKs killed someone they knew or were related to, whereas less than half of MSKs killed someone they knew, and only a few killed someone to whom they were related by blood or marriage. MSKs were 18 times more likely to stalk victims. FSKs most frequently killed males and females, but MSKs most frequently killed females. Serial killers did not commonly target only their same gender. FSKs’ most frequent method of killing was poisoning, whereas MSKs’ most frequent method was asphyxiation. There were some murder method commonalities. The author discusses her general observations of FSKs vs. MSKs and provides preliminary new data comparing serial killer taking of crime trophies. The cases of MSKs Robert Yates and Jerome Brudos illustrate stark differences in MSK crimes compared to FSK crimes and illustrate psychological concepts.

This unit presents the use of direct object pronouns, in combination with the affirmative familiar imperative and with personal ’a’. Students learn to express preferences when giving or following instructions and when eating out or ordering food. They are also introduced to expressions with the verb tener to indicate states of body and mind. Alternative structures to the passive are described and practised. Finally, Spanish expressions of duration and continuity in time are contrasted with their English equivalents.

This chapter drills into the parish records of Little and Great Clacton to reveal new information about the Selles family, accused of witchcraft as tensions around child-rearing and illegitimacy reached a peak in a second village.

This chapter ranges over the St Osyth lndscape, mapping its haunted spots and the location of key encounters with familiar spirits, particularly those said to belong to Elizabeth Bennet, Margerie Sammon, Ales Hunt and Joan Pechey.

It argues that the history and features of a landscape can tell us much about the origin of local witchcraft fears.
