In this bone-chilling episode of Among Monsters, host Damien Vale takes you deep into the shadowed alleys of Vancouver to reveal the horrifying tale of Gilbert Paul Jordan—infamously known as the “Boozing Barber.” Behind the disarming smile of this local barber was a calculated killer who weaponized alcohol to prey on the most vulnerable.
From the 1960s through the 1980s, Jordan lured Indigenous women and those struggling with addiction into a deadly trap. His method was as sinister as it was deceptive: encourage excessive drinking, push his victims beyond their limits, and watch as they silently slipped away. What appeared to be accidental deaths were soon revealed to be the calling card of a serial predator hiding in plain sight.
But what turns a seemingly average man into a manipulative murderer? Was Gilbert Paul Jordan always a monster—or did his cruelty grow with each life he consumed in his deadly ritual? Join Damien Vale as he explores Jordan’s psychological descent, his disturbing legacy, and the fight for justice in one of Canada’s most overlooked serial killer cases.
