The nonfiction book explores serious crime, deception, terrorism, prejudice, power, control, and human behavior under extreme conditions through a criminological perspective.
New York City, NY, September 30, 2026 — Kenneth Passan has released Where Monsters Dwell: A Criminological Perspective, a nonfiction book examining serious crime, destructive behavior, and the factors that may contribute to violence, deception, prejudice, and the pursuit of power and control.
The book covers a range of criminal and behavioral subjects, including violent crime, home invasions, hate crimes, racism, terrorism, manipulation, and other forms of harmful conduct. Rather than concentrating on a single category of offense, Passan considers how different motivations and circumstances may appear across varied forms of criminal behavior.
Where Monsters Dwell: A Criminological Perspective also discusses criminal cases involving severe violence and examines the behavioral, social, and situational factors surrounding them. The book encourages readers to consider broader questions about why destructive behavior occurs and how it can affect individuals and communities.
In addition to criminological topics, the book includes unconventional subjects such as spiritualism, witchcraft, hauntings, and possession. These themes are presented within the broader context of Passan’s interest in fear, belief, storytelling, and unusual aspects of human experience.
The book also considers terrorism and large-scale social disruption, including a hypothetical global catastrophic event. Through these scenarios, Passan explores how individuals and societies might respond when established systems, institutions, and social structures are placed under extreme pressure.
Passan’s approach brings criminological themes together with his interest in horror, storytelling, and paranormal subject matter. This combination broadens the scope of the book while maintaining its focus on questions surrounding violence, fear, manipulation, power, and social instability.
The book is intended for adult readers interested in criminology, serious crime, human behavior, terrorism, social breakdown, and unconventional subject matter.
Through its examination of criminal cases and broader behavioral questions, Where Monsters Dwell: A Criminological Perspective considers how power, control, prejudice, deception, and fear can influence destructive conduct across different circumstances.
