when:
Keszthely’s Balaton Theatre is packing late winter with brain-tingling, conversation-sparking evenings—from a deep dive into the minds of serial killers to a free globe-trot through Central America, plus intimate talks with a folklorist and a parenting must-hear on teens. All events take place at 8360 Keszthely, Fő tér 3.
February 28, 7:00 p.m., Theatre Hall. Ticket: $14.90. “Emberi bestiák – Bepillantás a sorozatgyilkosok gondolkodásába” pairs former elite homicide chief investigator Péter Doszpot and consulting psychologist Gábor Antal for an exclusive night exploring the dark world of serial killers. With film clips and real case studies, they show how policing and psychology intertwine in infamous 20th-century and contemporary cases, both Hungarian and international. Do childhood traumas breed killers? How does a psychopath think—and can they be treated? What detective instincts crack the case? Do offenders slip up and help their own capture? Two experts, two viewpoints—one gripping evening.
