Serial Killers Identified by Their Handwriting

A Look at 10 of the Worst

By: John Racher

About the Book Serial killers have fascinated the public for decades, sparking a myriad of discussions on their psychological make up, but rarely do we see the subject of handwriting come into the conversation. In this book, certified graphologist John Racher takes a deep dive into the handwriting of the world’s most notorious serial killers and makes illuminating observations into the connection between handwriting and certain personality traits that predispose violence. Possessing these traits, such as a high level of anger and resentment, does not necessarily make one a killer, but as Racher’s research will show, the key to a killer’s personality lies in their handwriting. About the Author John Racher became a certified graphologist (IGAS) in 1983 and has published a number of articles in The Graphologist, the journal of the British Institute of Graphologists. He was born and raised in Southern Ontario, Canada, has an Honors BSc (Microbiology) from the University of Guelph and an MBA from Laurier University, Waterloo, Ontario. He also has advanced certification in medical laboratory technology. As a medical laboratory management specialist, John has worked as a consultant across Canada and in the USA, England, Qatar and Kuwait. Since his retirement from medical laboratory management, he has developed a handwriting analysis service specializing in the detection and assessment of untrustworthy and anti-social behavioral traits. John is married and lives in Cambridge, Ontario with his wife Cindy Lou and their two golden retrievers, Ruby and Lewis.

100 Stories: The Lesser Known History of Humanity

By: John Hinson

Although recorded human history is relatively small compared to the existence of earth, there are so many great stories that are consistently left out of the history books. John Hinson has spent countless hours researching and unearthing some of humanity's best and long lost stories. If you think present day is weird, you might find comfort in knowing it's always been weird.

Welcome to Black Cat Weekly #14. Over the next few issues, you will note a number of changes coming to Black Cat Weekly. We have been expanding our staff of editors, and this issue Michael Brachen brings us his first selection, “A Ship Called Pandora,” by Melodie Campbell—which fits neatly in both the science fiction and mystery genres!

Of course, we also have several mystery novels—a Mr. Pinkerton puzzler by Zenith Brown and a classic Nick Carter detective story. And don’t miss this issue’s Solve-It-Yourself mystery by Hal Charles.

(No, you’re not suffering from deja vu. I’m just repeating myself.) New acquiring editor Darrell Schweitzer makes his first selection for BCW with Tom Purdom’s “Madame Pompadour’s Blade,” which combines French history and magic. (Next issue we hope to have a selection from Cynthia M. Ward, another new acquiring editor who is joining th staff.) Plus we have a classic short by Henry Kutttner, a modern short storoy by the late Larry Tritten, a short novel Edmond Hamilton, and I’ve snuck in a fantasy of my own, “Dreamtime in Adjaphon.” Here’s the complete lineup: Mysteries / Suspense “Saving Downtown Abbey,” by Hal Charles [Solve-It-Yourself Mystery] Two Against Scotland Yard, by Zenith Brown [novel] “Whose Wine Is It Anyway?” by Barb Goffman [short story] A Cigarette Clue, by Nicholas Carter [novel] “A Ship Called Pandora,” by Melodie Campbell [short story] Science Fiction & Fantasy “A Ship Called Pandora,” by Melodie Campbell [short story] “Dreamtime In Adjaphon,” by John Gregory Betancourt [short story] “Hydra,” by Henry Kuttner [short story] “Madame Pompadour’s Blade,” by Tom Purdom [short story] “The Dead Woods,” by Larry Tritten [short story] Battle For The Stars, by Edmond Hamilton [short novel]

Secrets of the Old Biloxi Cemetery

By: John Cuevas

The countryside between Mobile and New Orleans teems with memorials, but few historic spots occasion pause for reflection like the Old Biloxi Cemetery. Burials go back to the eighteenth-century French settlement, when Biloxi was the planned capital of the Louisiana territory. Secrets abound in the old cemetery--not exactly buried, since many prominent inhabitants sealed unsolved mysteries with their final remains in the aboveground tombs developed here. Author John Cuevas explores the fascinating history of the cemetery, including the massive restoration of the iconic resting place of his ancestor Juan de Cuevas, great-grandfather to more than nine thousand Gulf Coast families.
