Episode 42: Germany: Peter Kurten-The Vampire of Dusseldorf May 07, 2023

Show notes

This week we're going to Germany. We are talking about serial killer Peter Kurten. Trigger warning for all the things, Peter was absolute garbage who hurt, animals, his own family, and children. At least he was caught and punished for his crimes.

Episode 41: Cuba: The Life & Death of Alberto Yarini the Pimp Who Would be President Apr 19, 2023

Show notes

This week we're off to Cuba. We're taking a look at the life & death of Alberto Yarini. Alberto had every advantage growing up and yet he decided to commit crimes and take advantage of others to make it in the world. The sad part is, his exploits worked and he was loved by most of the country. In fact, had his life not been cut short, he may have been elected president.

Episode 40: Murder on the High Seas: The Incredible Survival Story of Terry Jo Duperrault Apr 11, 2023

Show notes

Arthur Duperrault simply wanted to take his family of five on a sailing adventure of a lifetime. Unfortunately, they got much more than they bargained for in the skipper, Julian Harvey. Julian was a piece of garbage posing as a human but the joke was on him because 11-year-old Terry Jo Duperrault survived despite his best efforts.

Episode 38: Scotland: The Flannan Island Mystery Feb 27, 2023

Show notes

The Flannan Islands are a mysterious set of islands off the northwest coast of Scotland. In 1900, 3 light keepers simply disappeared without a trace. What happened to them? Was is weather, the evil spirits of the island, or cold-blooded murder? Theories have abounded for years but we may never fully know what happened on that island.

Episode 37: Nepal: The Murders of Hemanta & Anjali Shrestha Feb 20, 2023

Show notes

In 2002 Hemanta and Anjali Shrestha lived in a rented apartment with their 4-year-old daughter. Two teenagers, Manraj Gurung and Pramesh Chauhan, barged in one morning and killed the innocent couple. Despite leaving evidence and a witness behind, it took over a decade to see justice in this case. Despite the killers being in jail, there are still unanswered questions and there is at least one other guilty person out there who has escaped justice.

Episode 36: Denmark: Hypnosis Murders Feb 12, 2023

Show notes

This week we're off to Denmark. This case is a doozy. It starts as a straightforward robbery and double murder until it wasn't. Was the perpetrator actually a man who wasn't even in town at the time of the crime? Was the killer a liar or a horribly abused man. Many theories exist but unfortunately we may never know what really happened between 2 men in their prison cell (that sounded way more porn-y than it was meant to).

Episode 35: Namibia: The B1 Butcher Feb 06, 2023

Show notes

This week we are going to the southern African country of Namibia to look at the B1 Butcher. This animal killed at least 5 women, leaving various pieces of them all along the B1 highway. While this case is technically unsolved, we probably have a good idea who did it.

This week we're going to Asia and learning about how a small insult at a party resulted in 2 people's deaths. As if the killings weren't bad enough, the attempted cover up afterward is somehow worse.
