Abstract

This article addresses the phenomenon known as the "Maníaco do Parque" in São Paulo. A record-holder for love letters received in prison, this criminal inspired the creation of this article due to the simple fact that most women attracted to this type of serial killer do not care about what he might do to them. Similar to Ted Bundy, he continues to attract a legion of women infatuated with his modus operandi.
