In this spine-chilling episode we explore the dark and intertwined histories of David Berkowitz, the notorious "Son of Sam," and the widespread hysteria of the Satanic Panic. We begin by delving into the terrifying spree of murders committed by Berkowitz in the 1970s, unraveling the twisted mind of a killer who claimed to be driven by demonic forces.
