After years of chilling letters and taunting ciphers, the Zodiac Killer went silent in 1971, leaving a trail of unsolved murders and unanswered questions. But by 1974, he reemerged, sending a series of final letters to newspapers. From the ominous Albany threat to the infamous "Exorcist" letter, these communications continued to cast fear across California. Was the Zodiac back, or was he simply relishing in his past crimes from afar? In this episode, we explore the content of the Zodiac's last confirmed letters, the haunting threats, and the chilling games that concluded his public taunts. Join us as we try to decipher what the Zodiac’s final words tell us about this elusive killer.
