The Soul Destroyer: The Story of Serial Killer Mikhasevich

The story of the most dangerous serial killer in the USSR, written by a criminal psychologist. Gennady Mikhasevich is rightfully considered one of the most terrifying serial killers in the world. His victims were not united by age, build, or clothing. Sometimes he strangled them with his hands, but sometimes he used rope or a scarf. No one could imagine that a single person could be behind this case—it was impossible to create a criminal profile.

The killer’s life resulted in 36 women and 14 innocent convicted men.

What made him who he was? What did he feel at the moment of killing? How did his disorder develop, and why did his consciousness begin to fade? Why did the investigation allow so many mistakes?

Read about it in a new documentary thriller based on materials from interrogations and interviews with the killer.
