The Killer in Me by Keith Julius

I love to kill people.

Now that I have your attention, allow me to add some information to the previous disclaimer. Within the pages of the stories I write, I love to kill people. It’s a feeling of extreme power, this ability to control people’s destinies. I enjoy many aspects of writing, but what draws me in more than anything else is the ability to manipulate lives. I take this ultimate authority I hold very seriously. Once I have created the characters that people my novels, endowed them with attributes and abilities and beliefs and all the many traits that make us who we are, I try my best not to force them into situations that don’t ring true.

Interview with the devil is a psychological horror about Victor, a serial killer and the reasons why he became such a person. The story vibrantly explains his harsh upbringing and all of the abuse he went through in detail. It is obvious that there are severe mental issues associating with the protagonist and the story does not sway shy from descriptively inviting the reader into the serial killer’s mind.
