This week on Twisted and Mysterious, we sink our teeth into the case of Tony Costa — the so-called “Cape Cod Vampire.” (Spoiler: he wasn’t actually biting necks.) We question where that nickname even came from, Sarah admits she thought Cape Cod was just a town and not an entire geographical feature, and we unpack the bizarre detail that Tony once babysat two little girls and… didn’t hurt them. Medal of honor? Not so much.
And then there’s the jaw-dropping loyalty of a mother who once said: “If our Tony chopped up those girls, he must have had a good reason.” Because nothing says mother’s love quite like justifying serial murder.
Creepy, twisted, and full of “wait, what?!” moments.
