This week, Katy’s taking us back to 1987 for a case that blurs the line between horror and reality. It’s the story of Ruthie Mae McCoy — a woman who called 911 to say someone was breaking into her apartment through the bathroom mirror. Her brutal murder would later inspire the terrifying legend of Candyman. Join us as we uncover the real story behind the movie myth and the tragedy that haunted Chicago’s housing projects.
