...There is a fine line between genius and insanity, in the case of Dr Hannibal Lector, this line is frequently obscured and even abolished completely. An elusive sociopath with an IQ of 160 and an odious diet, which frequently includes human organs, Lector enhances the standards in which serial killers are kept. Despite his being a psychologist, Lector is incapable of seeing his flaws and multiple mental disorders, some of which include Bipolar Disorder, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and Codependency. In an instant Lecter can transition from a sophisticated intellectual to a carnivorous killer with a fierce hunger for those he deems rude or morally unjust. This rapid progression of mood testifies to his having manic depression and is shown...

...The story begins with introducing Hannibal Lecter as a kid with her sister Misha. In that time, there was an ongoing war between Germany and other countries, most commonly known as World War II. The Lecter family moved into their safe house located in the middle of the woods in order to survive the ongoing war. One day, rebels or fugitives that go against the Germans saw the Lecter rest house but the German plane saw them too so it fired against them. The family of Hannibal except him and his sister died during this encounter. One night, the two siblings were caught by group of rebels. They chained their necks and arms like dogs. Then there came the time where the food is scarce. No one has a choice so the bad men decide to eat Misha and they force Hannibal to eat as well. This event hunted him until he grew up.

...Red Dragon by Thomas Harris: A Look Inside The Serial Killer’s Mind Red Dragon by Thomas Harris is a dark piece of psychological fiction that was published in 1981. The novel is the first in a trilogy featuring the infamous character Dr. Hannibal Lecter, a brilliant psychiatrist and psychopathic serial killer. However, Lecter is not a main character in this novel. Rather, the antagonist and killer is Francis Dolarhyde, whom the police jokingly refer to as the Tooth Fairy because of the bite marks he leaves on female victims. Harris does a masterful job of creating background on the killer that delves into the makings of a serial killer. Thomas Harris gives the reader an understanding of Dolarhyde’s mindset when committing his horrific crimes by detailing the abuses the killer suffered as a child (Sexton). Harris takes the reader from the infant born with a cleft palate so disfiguring he was left to die through the cruelty of a childhood that included abandonment, a mean and mentally unstable grandmother, and taunts from his stepsiblings. In doing so, the author provides significance to some of the killer’s actions (Cowley). This research paper will examine the underlying psychopathology of serial killers that often stems from abuse in childhood, turning the human into the monster. Red Dragon begins with the FBI and the police on a desperate hunt for a serial killer whom police have nicknamed the Tooth Fairy because of bite marks left on victims. The public is duly alarmed as the...

...Hannibal Rising James V Davis American Intercontinental University Abstract This analysis of the fictional character, Hannibal Lecter, from the movie Hannibal Rising, describes the actions taken by Hannibal used to reveal his nature. The author describes scenes in which to inform the reader about the nature of the character. Some dialogue from the movie is used to reveal the nature of the character and his motives. Other characters say things about Hannibal and portray his traits as a character. These are depicted as well. At the end of the movie, more information about Hannibal is unveiled and changes his whole perspective, or perhaps intensifies it. Hannibal Rising The movie starts with the scene in which Hannibal is but a boy. The land in which his parent’s castle is occupied is under attack. They move to a close by shelter; maybe a guest house. A Russian tank comes through the forest and crushes some of their house. The men occupying the tank force everyone out but have the children stay inside. Hannibal’s father is shot. A plan comes crashing down, explodes on the tank and kills everyone but Hannibal and his sister, Misha. The Russians rob them of their valuables. A battle continues while the children take cover inside the house. Hannibal loves is sister so much. He feeds her and tries his best to protect her, even as a young boy. The Russians come back and torment Hannibal and Misha. {8 years later} Hannibal lives in the people’s orphanage. He doesn’t speak...

...Thomas Harris – The silence of the lambs Hannibal Lecter – psychiatrist, psychopath, purveyor of ghastly canapés – is an ambiguous presence in Thomas Harris’s Red Dragon (1981) and its sequels. Rarely the outright villain, he tends to play the role of a genteel monster with whom the reader is, scandalously, invited to sympathise. In The Silence of the Lambs, the best of Harris’s novels, the FBI requires Lecter’s insight in order to catch serial killer Buffalo Bill, who enjoys parading about in the flayed skins of his victims. Clarice Starling, a pretty trainee agent, is sent to visit Lecter in prison and charm him into offering help. Clarice Starling, still doing her years at the training academy and a part of the Bureau's behavioural sciences unit, is called upon to participate in one of the goriest, strangest cases the Bureau has ever seen. She is sent to talk to Hannibal Lecter, an ex-psychologist who is currently residing in a high security mental asylum. Lecter, having been sentenced to a whole life in an asylum due to his cannibalistic tendencies, establishes an odd sort of relationship with Starling. They work together, to track the movements and the thoughts of a fast-moving psychopath. A strange partnership emerges as secrets from Starling's past are revealed. It isn't the fact that there's a man capable of murder on the loose that scares her, it's the man who's safe behind bars that does. There's your run-of-the-mill crime novels, and then there's The Silence...
