Did you know that 90% of people believe they can get away with murder – are you one of them? There will be a live psychopath test on the night to find out!
Cheish Merryweather, the founder of Crime Viral and a celebrated figure on BBC TV and radio, is a leading voice in psychology and psychopathy. Her work continues to attract a vast following, making Crime Viral one of the fastest-growing true crime communities online. With over 350,000 followers, Cheish is at the forefront of exploring modern crime trends, including the troubling impact of the 'CSI effect'.
The ‘CSI effect’ has created a new type of killer – one that is forensically aware and is out to mislead an investigation. The evening will explore the lies embedded in crime scenes and share the expertise from those who dig deep for the truth. You will investigate the six types of stagers: The Planner, The Creator, The Cleaner, The Concealer, The Fabricator and The Inflictor.
Featuring forensics, reconstructed real-life crime scene walk-throughs and a deep dive into cases that have not been seen on stage live before. This is an unmissable evening for any true crime fan.
Tickets are priced from £16.96.
