Bloody Shed Lounge

Murderers have a lot of bad mojo. It's only a matter of time before the Law finds them. But sometimes, another killer finds them first! Other times, serial killers underestimate their victims' self-defense.  Jeffrey Dahmer teased the wrong inmate in prison. Neal Falls was dumb enough to put down his gun for a moment. Richard Heaton should've searched his victim better. Dean Corll's own murder-assistant did him in. Join us as we share tales of murdered murderers.

A leftover story about a headless man in Golden Gate Park, plus a few crude outtakes from our early attempts at podcasting – back when we thought alcohol was necessary before recording conversations. This is very Not Safe For Work material - please don't be offended!

We all like to get a little freaky at times. Some people take it too far. We explore the stories of murder and mayhem in the darker corners of kink, from pyrophilliac Thomas Sweatt to Phillip Bondy's botched leg amputation fetish, at the hands of a legendary hack, Dr. John Brown. We even throw in an unfortunate death by carrot.

Holiday meals are a dangerous thing. That turkey might have some buddies. And they might want revenge. Here are a few terrible turkey tales to make you tremble at the thought of Christmas dinner!

Let's talk real vampires! Renfield Syndrome, clinical vampirism and the growing vampire community that has had to struggle for a respectable identity under the stories of murderous legends like the Atlas vampire, Richard Chase and Nicolas Claux.

This time we serve up the story of Armin Meiwes, the German who advertised for someone to allow him to eat them, and got a taker! Then we dig into the story of the Mignonette and poor Richard Parker, a story of survival cannibalism that changed legal precedent in a world where eating someone... isn't techinically illegal!

The last 60 years has been a renaissance in Cannibalism research. Anthropology has found numerous examples in history. Medicine has benefited from the discovery of prions and Kuru. The Anasazi might not have been so peaceful... and Christopher Columbus was a jerk.

Informant, rat, turncoat, Stool Pigeon... Snitch!! Vulgar language to a criminal. Salvatore "Sammy the Bull" Gravano is famous for turning informant to save his hide. Charles Becker is the first (and only?) cop in the U.S. put to death for killing Herman Rosenthal. And why do so many people snitch today? What are the risks? What if the evidence is faked? It's happened before!

Hollywood's had a share of villains—some, off-screen! Thomas Edison sued Hollywood into existence. Harry Cohn's iron fist ruled all. Spade Cooley the singing cowboy became a forgotten murderer. Lawrence Tierney, a beloved crook of Film Noir and Reservoir dogs... drank gallons and punched anything that moved!

Between Murph the Surf and the Book Bandit, was anything safe?! We talk about a famous theft of the Star of India sapphire by Jack Murphy, who went on to commit murder... and become a motivational speaker. Then tour the world of book theft, with the tale of Stephen Blumberg - the most prolific book thief of the 20th century. Hell! He could be the most prolific doorknob thief, too!
