And Dulwich is correct also, if you assume that the 34 people are not in the bedroom that you entered.

Could you not think of a riddle that was not about killing?

At least it was just a riddle. What I don't understand is why people post ghastly stories like the man killing children. What's the point of spreading that horror?

@RoughDraft 

Makes sense to me.

I'm not seeing the explanation....

Somewhere a person kills thirty people and leaves four alive. The person goes into a bedroom so the answer is one person.

You enter a bedroom.

There are 34 people.

You kill 30.

How many people are in the bedroom?

You did not specify whether "You" is a part of the 34 people or not.  If "You" is a part, then there are 34 people. If "You is separate from the "34 people, then there are 35 people. You also never said wheth the "There are 34 people" means that there are 34 people in the room. You only said that "there are 34 people. These people could be anywhere since you never said where they were. Then you said, "You kill 30." You never said whether the 30 "you kill" are a part of the "There are 34 people."
