"SERIAL KILLERS? Am I crazy? I feel like people want to be worried about serial killers. I can’t find any hard data to back up the idea that serial killers are actually “back,” but I do feel like I’m always hearing urban legends or suspicions that there’s an active serial killer somewhere. In Austin, in Chicago, now in North Hollywood. Something to bookmark for later, I guess."

Also - on this. As someone pretty interested in serial killers as well as the more-typical true crime fare like "Forensic Files" et al, I often wonder - are there serial killers out there now that have found new ways to avoid detection? So much is known about 'typical' serial killer behavior (like 'having a type' or preferred weaponry or 'hunting grounds'), then are there some out there going deliberately against that grain + extreme lengths to clean up evidence ... how would we know?

A particularly chilling example is Israel Keyes and his methods. Worth a google if you're interested in serial killers.
