Is it normal to have extreme violent thoughts?

So I have extremely violent urges and thoughts. Like I want to kill someone just for the thrill of it, to see their fear and to see them struggle for their lives. I think all the time about different ways to kill and how I would get away with it. The thrill of seeing life fade strikes me as beautifull and an amazing thing. Creepy. I know. :( I am fascinated with violence, torture, and murder. It is almost an obsession.

I could never act on these urges(I am a pacifist and a wimp) and am not concerned with whether I would kill someone and am a very sweet person, normally(I've never been in a fight in my life). But it is a nagging obsessive desire.

    you kinda sound like me, except i don't really obsess over it. but i think like that when i'm really mad at someone. the only reason i don't act on it is because i couldn't handle going to jail.

    so yeah, if you don't want to get in serious trouble, i'd sugguest not acting on those thoughts.

    i'd say that as long as you have the perspective to know that acting on it would nOT be normal, then thinking about it is fine. everybody thinks about some off-colour stuff that they wouldn't like the world to know!
    i would try not to obsess about it though, dont spend too much time thinking about it, just very occasionally indulge in these thoughts.
