On Among Monsters, Damien Vale dives into the chilling case of Heriberto Seda, the "Zodiac Copycat Killer," a man who terrorized 1990s New York City, choosing victims by their astrological signs.

Tonight, unravel the profoundly fractured mind of Heriberto Seda, a Brooklyn recluse who mimicked California's infamous Zodiac Killer, seeking infamy through a twisted cosmic mission. Explore how Seda, fueled by an obsession with astrology and homemade zip guns, targeted and attacked residents of NYC based solely on their star signs, leaving cryptic notes and ciphers.

Damien Vale recounts the terror that gripped the city from 1990-1993, and the dramatic police standoff in 1996 that finally led to Seda's capture and the discovery of his chilling, self-documented descent into madness. Learn about his unrepentant belief that he was a "chosen instrument of cosmic justice" and the profound narcissism that drove his crimes.

This isn't just a true crime story; it's a deep dive into copycat killers, astrology's dark side, urban serial murder, and the psychology of a manipulative predator. A crucial listen for fans of Zodiac lore, cold cases, and anyone seeking to understand how twisted belief can become deadly.
