To kick us off on our first episode of12 Nightmares Before Christmas, we are traveling to southern Florida-- Coconut Creek, to be exact, where the Broward County Sheriff’s dept has been called out to an abandoned car. It is January 9, 1990, and just after 1:30 in the morning. Officers arrive at the car and notice all the windows have been shot out. As they get closer, they see something slumped over in the back seat: a man with duct tape covering his mouth, and bullets riddle his body. Officers are careful to search the car for some ID and find it. The man is 42-year-old Christopher Morris. So begins a tale of deceit, betrayal, and murder.

Join Jen and Cam as we discuss “Lies that Bind: Christopher Morris” on Day 1 of the 12 Nightmares Before Christmas.

That mystical voice you hear at the top of the podcast is our friend Edward October from @octoberpodVHS

As always, our music is from Nico @wetalkofdreams. We liked him so much; we made him our executive producer.
