Welcome to the very beginning of Deadly Ever After !
In our inaugural episode, we cover the infamous story that has enthralled and bewitched true crime fans worldwide for the last twenty years. It’s the story of Michael & Kathleen Peterson, better known as The Staircase.
On a warm summer’s night, Michael Peterson found his wife Kathleen, unconscious and bleeding profusely, at the bottom of a staircase in their sprawling North Carolina mansion. He frantically dialed 911 but when police arrived, the crime scene presented endless questions, a growing number of which Michael Peterson couldn’t answer.
The Peterson’s story devolved into a tangled web of lies. Was it a murder or an accident? Did Michael murder his wife? There was no shortage of motives: life insurance, sex, war, politics, debt and a decades-long international mystery…
We also meet our hosts, Harry and Elizabeth and get a taste of what their relationship is like.
