Born to Kill? Class of Evil

Series 1

Killing Spree

In 2014 TwoFour Productions started a new show named Killing Spree with the same crew and narrator. The show followed the same pattern as Born to Kill? by looking at their childhood and the police investigation after them. The only difference that they examine cases of spree and rampage killers rather than serial killers. The show lasted two seasons.
