Talk:Copycat killers

I know this articles title is already thrown around a bit on the wiki, but should we rename this article to just "Copycat Killers"? Stoic Sigma 2 (talk) 20:19, 27 March 2026 (UTC)

uh

Sebas was an Elliot Rodger copycat according to herself, but shes not in Misogynist terrorism because shes an Foid, same thing for Natalie Rupnow, do i just add them in this article or what? Mercifulfag (talk) 16:16, 29 March 2026 (UTC)

Same goes for the non-Brazilian Suzano wannabes. - Paul in the Mall (talk) 12:57, 30 March 2026 (UTC)

Fictional characters

Should this list include people who copy fictional killers? People like Mark Twitchell and Brian Draper & Torey Adamcik. — PooF9 (Talk | Contribs) 16:03, 9 April 2026 (UTC)

idk, I think that shouldgo in parasocial syndrome or fandom killers, I know for a fact it doesn't belong in here doe Mercifulfag (talk) 16:11, 9 April 2026 (UTC)

I don't think they should go in parasocial syndrome unless they feel as if they had a connection to the fictional killer. They should go in fandom killers, but I think they should also go here aswell. Copycat crime can also be about somebody copying something fictional. — PooF9 (Talk | Contribs) 18:04, 9 April 2026 (UTC)

I don't understand what you're saying, but Brian and Torey were copying Scream. — PooF9 (Talk | Contribs) 18:04, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
