Today’s dark tale is not just about murder.  It is about a quiet street in Glost-ter, England, that hid unimaginable evil behind ordinary brick walls.  It is about a couple who, from the outside, looked like everyone else, but were actually one of the most horrifying criminal partnerships in modern British history.  

So, get out your panic buttons, my spooky friends.  Today, you will be hearing about a serial killing couple, but before we get started, I want to give you all a heads-up.  Today, you will be hearing about incest, sexual assault, bestiality, severe child abuse, suicidal ideation, murder and pretty much everything else bad.  Listener discretion is advised.

Los Angeles is often regarded as a city of dreams, with bright lights and a promise of fame and fortune.  But behind the glamour lives darkness.  Between 2001 and 2008, a man who appeared to his neighbours to be calm, unassuming, and ordinary walked the city streets.  What they didn’t know was that he was a monster.

So, turn down the lights, my spooky friends.  You are about to hear the tale of a serial killer who was brought to justice with the help of a television show and a famous actor.  But before we get started, I want to give all of you a little heads up.  Today, we will be talking about graphic murders, mutilation and child abuse.  Listener discretion is advised.

Many people’s childhoods were filled with Disney movies.  In these films, there usually is a downtrodden girl who, against all odds, becomes the heroine.  But Disney did not come up with the premise of many of their animated films.  They borrowed the idea from many classic works.

In those versions, the princess does not necessarily meet their Prince Charming and live happily ever after.  

So, snuggle in, my spooky friends.  It’s story time.

In 1879, there was a murder so grisly that newspapers continuously reported on it since readers were fascinated by it.  The crime itself was horrifying, but the aftermath was just as shocking.  It was a tale of class, gender, rumour, and the strange hunger of a society for the lurid details of domestic violence.  

So, put on your aprons, my spooky friends.  You are about to hear a tale about an employer/employee relationship breakdown of epic proportions, but before we start, I want to give you all a heads-up.  Today, we will be talking about an extremely graphic murder.  Listener discretion is advised.

There is a place in California where redwood trees tower, and people disappear.  Five young adults came to Humboldt County in search of money, dreams, and escape.  None of them ever came back.  

Locals call it  Murder Mountain, a land ruled not by law, but by silence.  It is where secrets are buried deep, and the forest watches every step you take.  It is a mountain that chooses who leaves, and who stays forever.  

So, get out your hiking boots, my spooky friends.  You are about to hear about a place where five individuals disappeared without a trace.
