- True Crime
We live in a society obsessed with monsters. Monsters are real, and human beings can be the scariest of them all. It’s an unfortunate fact that real life is sometimes even more twisted than the worst horror writer can imagine. Nowhere is this seen more than when discussing these slayers. There are people who genuinely believe that killers are a strictly contemporary phenomenon, a symptom of something horribly amiss in the moral fabric of modern society. Killers have always existed.

Episode 3 - Painkiller & The Story of Tiffany Hall
Tamperproof packaging, of course, is a fact of modern life. In an era when all manner of crazies believe they have a cause worth killing for, where manufacturers face massive lawsuits should their products cause harm, you just can’t get around it. But there was a more innocent time not that long ago when such measures did not exist. Back in those days you could pluck a bottle of painkillers from the shelf, screw off the top, and find no more protection than a wad of cotton wool.
Jealousy is a natural human emotion. It is, however, when emotions run high that all rational thinking is lost and situations among friends and acquaintances can become a chain reaction of out-of-control decisions that ultimately lead to the death of innocent people.

Episode 1 - The Girl in the Basement
It is one of the most horrendous crimes in the annals of American history, the systematic abuse, torture, and eventual murder of an innocent 16-year-old, whose only crime was that she provoked the ire of the woman tasked with caring for her. And yet the horrific abuse that Sylvia Likens endured only tells part of the story. What makes this crime even more appalling is that the torture was carried out by at least a dozen neighbourhood children, some as young as ten.
