Keszthely’s Balaton Theater (Balaton Színház) rolls out a sharp lineup of knowledge-sharing evenings, tackling the darkest corners of the human mind, the sweep of Central American culture, intimate conversations with a folklorist, and the hard truths of raising teens. All events take place at 8360 Keszthely, Main Square (Fő tér) 3.
Date: 2026.02.28., 19:00. Venue: Balaton Theater, Main Theatre. Ticket: $15.30. Former top homicide detective Péter Doszpot and consulting psychologist Gábor Antal unpack who serial killers really are, what drives their brutal acts, and how psychopathy works—and whether it can be treated. They detail the investigative skills needed to catch them, where offenders slip up, and what protects the public. Through film clips and real case studies, they map how policing and psychology interlace across notorious Hungarian and international cases from the 20th century to today. Do childhood traumas make a serial killer? What does science say, and what do frontline lessons reveal? Two experts, two viewpoints—one unsettling, unmissable night.
