September 08, 2023 OTC Presents: Murders on Lovers’ Lane Chapter 5 - The Widower
Episode 5: The Widower
Another three weeks pass with no new Lovers' Lane murders. A couple in Nebraska, brought together by the eerily similar tragedies that have shaped their lives, takes an automobile ride one summer Sunday night and never returns.
The strange clues found at the murder scene raise more questions than they answer. And the town's recent rash of robberies might mean that the killer has been lurking for a while.

Chapter 4: The Foursome
Two weeks after the Illinois attacks that left Ivan Blake dead and Frances Shuster wounded, a group of young adults are out for a carefree summer night in Denver when everything goes horrifically awry.
The case takes strange twists and turns over the years, with unexpected witnesses and odd tales that don't line up. Does it fit with the other cases, or is this an entirely new murderer stalking Lovers' Lane?

Part 1: Katherine Herbers and Howard Fisher
Fort Wayne, Indiana. May 6, 1925
A young couple is out for a drive one lovely spring night. The abrupt end to their evening is only the beginning of the terror that will snake across the Midwest in the Jazz Age, only to disappear and return with starting violence in the big city at the start of the Great Depression.
