On December 10 1973, a young man lured two underage hitchhikers into his car and drove them to the outskirts of town. What the man didn’t know is that he picked the wrong two girls to attack that fall evening. The victims fought viciously with the man. Frustrated, the man took out his gun and fired. Shocked and thrown off guard when the gun misfired, the girls made a run for it and escaped. The woman went straight to the police to tell them what happened. They not only gave police a description of the man and his car, but they also had one other piece of information about this stranger. We never want to think our loved one could be evil but as we all know, there is real evil out there and sometimes it is your brother or son. Sometimes the person you love grows up to be a monster you never knew.

Join Jen and Cam on Day 5 of the 12 Nightmares Before Christmas as we discuss ‘The Monster You Never Knew: Bernard Eugene Giles.’

Hear that jingle jangle? It’s the amazing Edward October from @octoberpodVHS who does our very special holiday listener discretion.
