Trick question ?

Read this question and see if you can come up with an answer. It's not a trick question. The question is exactly as it reads. No one I know has managed to get it right.

A woman, while at the funeral of her own mother, met a guy whom she did not know. She thought this guy was amazing. She believed him to be her dream guy - so much so that she fell in love with him right there and then but never asked for his number and could not find him. A few days later she killed her own sister.

Question: What is her motive for killing her sister?

[Edit...] Question has been answered - so think about it yourself, before reading the replies.... :lol:

No - but if you'd have been asked the question for real, you'd have passed the test too...!

Re: Trick question ?

Yes you have, chmanish!! I'm glad you owned up and told us that you've heard the question before... :D

Actually, it's a psychometric test that's used to determine whether a suspected serial killer is really a serial killer or whether their crime was a one off.

The answer is that she wants to create another funeral (her sister's) hoping that the man will show up again.

Apparently, almost all serial killers guess the answer correctly - whereas most people can't make any sense out of the situation.

Well...I would say this might be a coincidence, however, isn't this just a logical question as they are being asked with every IQ test as well?

In other words...thinking logically, you might get the answer without being the next serial killer... ;)
