Friday the 13th Murders ////// 912 

Part 1 of 1 

www.TrueCrimeGarage.com

On Friday, July 13th, the quiet town of Panhandle, Texas, where life moved at a gentle pace, was about to be shattered by an event so violent it would be seared into the town's memory forever. This Friday the 13th, was a night that defied the very nature of this peaceful community. Evil didn’t come to the town of Panhandle, it was born there and on this Friday the 13th that evil was on a seek and destroy mission. The chaos began in the dead of night. It was a night filled with murder, mayhem, confusion, and chaos. A night that will forever live in infamy as the night that the curse and the evil of lore became real.
