Son of Sam killer David Berkowitz looks to Anne Frank for inspiration, views himself as ‘father figure’ to other inmates

A demonic dog inspired him to kill, but now he’s driven by a diary.

Son of Sam serial killer David Berkowitz compared his decades behind bars to Anne Frank’s “inspirational” writings — days before the self-proclaimed “father figure” is set to face the parole board.

“My favorite book is the Holy Bible. But the most inspirational book for me throughout my years of incarceration is ‘Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl,’” Berkowitz told The Post this week.

“Young Anne wrote her diary while in captivity. She shared her heart within its pages,” the 70-year-old wrote from the maximum-security Shawangunk Correctional Facility in Wallkill.

“Little did she know the influence her life and her writings would have in the future,” Berkowitz added about the Jewish teen author, whose dairies detailing life hiding from the Nazis were published around the globe after her death during the Holocaust.

“She impacted the lives of millions,” Berkowitz said. “Little Anne changed the world with a pen. So I ask myself, what can I do with my trusty typewriter? Maybe I can change lives, too, with my message of hope in God?”
