Diary of a Serial Killer [In Progress]

To You Who Finds This

My name is Joshua Forsythe and while it probably isn't the smartest thing to do I am going to keep a journal of what I do. If anyone should read this please know that the Urge is not something that I can control, not all the time. Sometimes I can push it down and quiet it for a while, but it always comes out. This journal will document who I am and what I do. I can't give you a why I do it, because I do not know why.

If you are reading this you are probably wondering what it is I do exactly, what will I be documenting. I am a serial killer. These pages you hold in your hands are a roadmap to all the people I choose to kill and where and how I will. If you are reading this now, I have either been caught or killed. These pages will lead you to the bodies if you have not yet found them because the journal entries will tell you everything.

The entries will tell you how I picked each victim, where I choose each victim, how I got each victim, how I killed each victim and where their remains are.

The first question you have is probably the same I had when I felt the urge to kill someone. Why didn't I get help? Why didn't I turn myself in? How could I do the things I have done and did I ever consider how these actions would impact the families of the people I have killed?

I have asked myself every one of these questions and while some I have answers to, others I do not. The urge doesn't afford me a reason, it doesn't give me an explanation as to why I feel the way I do. Also, I can't live without doing what I am doing. I either give in to the urge or take my own life and while it may eventually come to that, I do not want to die – not yet. Nor do I want to spend what little bit of life I have locked up like a caged animal.

So, if you have the stomach to spend time in my world, read on – if not, I suggest you put this journal down and move on to something a little less from the darkest side of who I am.
