Definitely going with sabot rounds from an Abrams MBT. And the signiture would be leaving a tread trail to no where considering IT CAN FLY :D

I would choose my victims in the reverse order of the genealogy of Jesus in the gospel of Luke, with the singular exception of Amminadab. For example, the first victim would be named Joseph, the second would be named Eli, the third Matthew, the fourth Levi, and so forth...

At every murder scene I would leave the words IM A BAD MAN written somewhere - on the wall, the floor, the ceiling, carved into the body, something like that...with that phrase actually being an anagram of the aforementioned skipped-over name.

My reason, if the pattern were ever discovered, would be "by unmaking the line of Jesus, I recommit humanity to the damnation it so rightfully deserves for its crimes."

(I wrote this as the motivation and pattern for a killer in a detective story I was working on at one point...)
its a nice backround...mind if i borrow it for an in-school writing assignment?

Only attention starving idiots leave a signature. Why make the cop's work any easier? In fact, if I went on a serial killing spree, I'd change MO, victim type, "hunting ground" and fake "signature" every time. Tying that with random targets and careful consideration of forensic evidence (i.e.: leaving as little or nothing behind) you're virtually untraceable.

That said, assuming I absolutely had a reason to leave a signature, and I knew I wasn't going to get caught (or didn't care about it)... Probably leave the body nailed to the wall with kitchen knives.
wouldn't changing your signature every time be a form of signature? not trying to be an ass but...being one anyway, I guess

recently, for school I did a report on the human mind, specificaly that of the serial killer, a man or woman who, forever reason feels a compulsion to kill and leave a signature (not really, but fits the question of this thread pretty well.) and this got me thinking.

"what would my signature be?"

in the end i gave my presentation to the class, but the question nagged on.

so, I now turn the question over to you, the escapist forum community to deliver yoiu signature and cause of death (how you killed your victim)

for me, since i always wear a red hoodie, no exeptions, and since lots of the kids at my school call me 'emo' ever since word got out that i take anti depression meds, my cause of death would be blood loss from multiple lacerations on the forearms (mocking those who stereotype emos as people who cut themselves) and my signature would be a cut-off sleeve from a red hoodie on the victim's left arm.

edit: it has occured to me that it might be useful to post the FBI's main...info...thing...paper on serial murders

Having a set 'style' is a quick way to get caught.

...and going through and explaining my style is a good way of getting caught. Moving on now...

Precisely one week before I killed someone, I would mail them the head of my previous victim. (I don't know what I'd mail to my FIRST victim, though...)
What you do, is you take a picture of someone holding up a manakin's head. And you photoshop vic #1s face onto it. And send them that.

I wouldn't have a style mainly because i don't want to become a serial killer and think the whole idea of deciding on a 'signature' to leave is rather tasteless.

serial killers who suffer from lack of attention will almost always have a style.
PRETEND that you suffer from lack of attention

hmm well off the top of my head i'd have to say i'd kill them by stringing them up with barbed wire, stabing very long needles into there body, then conect the needles with wire and run a circut through them thus bloodrocuting them....my sig. would be red rose petals spread on the floor, but thats just off the top of my head.

I'm not sure. I'd do whatever it takes to get the media to dub me the 'disco nasty killer' just because it sounds pleasing to my ear.

i actualy profucely thought about this and came up with a few things putting coins on the eyes like the ancient greeks writting positive scripture on the back planting a rare flower in the torn open rib cage but what i finally desided on was carving " i am finally at free of you people" all over the body and then burying the corpse with the arm sticking out holding the shovel

I guess so - I don't plan on going back to the story at any foreseeable point in the future.

This is a REALLY morbid topic, and kind of depressing, but I've always been fascinated by serial killers; if nothing, it would make good cinema.

However, I also realize that this is simply a what-if scenario, so here's my answer.

My method: I would follow a complete stranger to his house (or apartment complex, whatever the case may be), and follow him inside the house by picking the lock on his door after about five or so minutes of waiting for him to get comfortable. I'd have to act quickly, lest he scream for help, so I would quickly silence him with a sharp blow to the head, tying him to his bed and waiting for him to wake, gagged and blinded. Once he awakens, I would inform him of his impending and very humane death, injecting him with Windex using one of those syringes diabetics use.

My Signature: I would make a mask of cloth strips glued together and molded to my victim's face. The mask would be plain white and would be attached to his face. Afterwards, I would leave a small note on his nightstand, with type saying; "He was a statistic, like the rest of us."

It kind of creeps me out that I would go into all this thought about it, but you asked what it would be for us. answer to your question, my brain came up with two solutions; a violent solution and a non-violent solution. This is the non-violent solution.
