Whilst I take a break for Christmas, I wanted to R&R (rewind and repeat) one of the most horrific cases I covered.
Have a lovely Christmas - New Year period, and your next new episode will be in your feed one New Year's day!
Imagine trusting the local candy store owner, only to discover he’s one of the most sadistic serial killers in history. Dean Corll, the man they called 'The Candy Man,' lured innocent teens into a nightmare beyond belief. What drove him to commit some of the most chilling murders in Texas history? You won’t believe how deep this darkness goes...
Listener discretion is advised.
Towards the end of this episode, I also reference the Ruthie Mae McCoy case:
