On this episode of MACABRE: A Dark History Podcast, we unravel the chilling story of the Clutter family massacre. A single lie, whispered behind prison walls, set a nightmarish plan into motion—one that would end in cold-blooded slaughter. Step inside the twisted minds of Richard “Dick” Hickock and Perry Smith, where greed and violence collided with fate. But the horror doesn’t end there. This episode also explores the eerie bond between Truman Capote and Perry Smith—a relationship forged in blood and obsession.
