Buffalo Bill, a character from Thomas Harris's novel "The Silence of the Lambs," exhibits traits consistent with several psychopathological diagnoses. He displays characteristics of gender dysphoria, as he seeks to transform into a woman, and shows signs of antisocial personality disorder through his violent and manipulative behavior. Additionally, his actions suggest elements of a paraphilic disorder, specifically sexual sadism, given his gruesome acts of murder and the desire to exert control over his victims. However, as a fictional character, his diagnosis may not fit neatly into clinical categories.
