Good Momu! This week we tackle a tale so terrible its gonna take two parts to cover the whole thing. First we learn the history of a monster and the details of the horrifying crime he committed on eight young nursing students. Let's raise a mug for our fellow Bean, Clo... and thank them for the nightmares. 

Hosted by Nicole Unger, Amanda Kraft, and Brenna Folger
