When Kala Brown was discovered chained inside a shipping container on a rural property in South Carolina in 2016, police had no idea they were about to uncover one of the most chilling serial killer cases in modern American history.

Todd Kohlhepp, a respected real estate agent and seemingly successful businessman, had been hiding a dark and deadly double life. As investigators dug deeper, they found multiple graves on his property and a trail of cold-blooded murders stretching back more than a decade. He had been killing under everyone’s noses — maintaining a public life of property sales, smiling client photos, and local charm, all while burying his victims behind his house.

In this deeply researched episode of Crime at Bedtime, we follow the entire timeline — beginning with the shocking discovery of Kala Brown, through Kohlhepp’s twisted childhood and early violent crimes, to the moment the full scale of his serial killing spree was revealed. We explore his manipulative nature, the calculated façade he maintained, and the psychological profile of a man who lived a lie so convincingly, no one saw the monster behind the smile.

This is the story of how a predator hid in plain sight — and how one woman’s survival brought his empire of horror crashing down.
