    The Linda White Case: Secrets Beneath the Surface

    In this episode of Terrified, we examine the unsettling and complex case of Linda White — a story that shook her community and raised disturbing questions about trust, secrecy, and what can hide behind closed doors. When Linda White was found dead, the circumstances surrounding her death quickly unravelled into something far more complicated than anyone initially expected. What followed was an investigation marked by suspicion, conflicting accounts, and the slow emergence of truths that many found hard to believe. We break down the timeline, explore the key players, and look at the evidence that ultimately shaped the outcome of the case. Was this a crime driven by passion, calculation, or something even darker? And how did those closest to Linda respond as the case unfolded? Join us as we carefully unpack the facts, examine the psychology behind the events, and reflect on the lasting impact this case had on family, investigators, and the wider public.

    The Mask of Innocence: Inside the Mind of Mitchell Quy

    In December 1998, Lynsey Quy vanished without a trace. Her husband, Mitchell Quy, became the public face of the search — appearing on television, making emotional appeals, and insisting she had simply walked away. But nearly two years later, a grim discovery would unravel the narrative he had carefully constructed. In this episode of Terrified, we examine the psychology behind the performance — the calm exterior, the public pleas, and the mindset of a man convicted of murdering the very person he claimed to be searching for. #truecrime #truecrimepodcast

    Terrified | Vanished: The Lynsey Quy Case

    In December 1998, Lynsey Quy disappeared without a trace. Her husband, Mitchell Quy, claimed she had simply walked out on their marriage. He protested his innocence from the very beginning — even appearing on television to plead for his wife’s return. But behind the public appeals and calm denials, investigators were uncovering a far darker truth. In January 2001, Mitchell Quy was convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment for Lynsey’s murder. In this episode of Terrified, we examine the unsettling psychology of a man who insisted on his innocence, the contradictions in his story, and the disturbing behaviours that ultimately led to his conviction. This is a case about control, deception, and the chilling performance of grief — and how sometimes, the loudest pleas can hide the darkest secrets. #truecrimepodcast #truecrime

    Ed Kemper: The Co-Ed Killer Who Explained Himself

    Edward Kemper was intelligent, articulate, and terrifyingly self-aware. Known as the Co-Ed Killer, Kemper murdered six young women in 1970s California after being released from a psychiatric hospital for killing his grandparents as a teenager. In this episode of Terrified, we explore Kemper’s deeply disturbing upbringing, his calculated crimes, and the chilling calm with which he later confessed — and cooperated with the FBI. Was he a product of abuse, a master manipulator, or something far darker? A story not just of violence, but of a killer who wanted to be understood. #truecrime #truecrimepodcast

    The Grindr Killer: How Stephen Port Went Undetected

    Stephen Port didn’t look like a serial killer.Quiet, unremarkable, and largely ignored, he was able to hide in plain sight — even as men around him began to die. Between 2014 and 2015, Port used dating apps to lure victims to his London flat, drugging and murdering them before leaving their bodies in public places. Despite striking similarities between the deaths, repeated warnings from families, and multiple missed opportunities to intervene, authorities failed to connect the crimes — allowing Port to continue killing. In this episode of Terrified, we examine how Stephen Port was able to evade detection for so long. We explore the warning signs that were overlooked, the investigative failures that proved fatal, and the devastating consequences of not taking victims and their families seriously. This is a disturbing story of manipulation, systemic failure, and lives that should have been saved. Listener discretion is advised. #truecrime #truecrimepodcast

    The Murder of Anne Maguire | A Classroom Killing That Shocked Britain

    In 2014, a quiet classroom in Leeds became the scene of one of the most shocking crimes in UK history. This episode of Terrified investigates the murder of Anne Maguire, a beloved Spanish teacher who had dedicated more than 40 years of her life to education. In an unthinkable act of violence, Anne was stabbed seven times by one of her own students during a lesson — marking the first time a teacher in the UK was murdered in a classroom by a pupil. The killer, 15-year-old William Cornick, was described as intelligent, well-behaved, and unremarkable to those around him. But beneath the surface, he harboured a growing and dangerous resentment toward his teacher. For months, Cornick fantasised about the attack, openly discussing his intentions online and even warning classmates on the day of the murder — warnings that were tragically dismissed as jokes. This episode explores the psychological warning signs, the failures that allowed the attack to happen, and the devastating impact of a crime that forever changed the conversation around school safety in Britain. Listener discretion is strongly advised. #truecrime #truecrimepodcast

From the investigation that gripped the nation to the forensic evidence that sealed his fate, we explore how an unassuming man hid one of Britain’s most chilling secrets.

    The Death of Paula Poolton

    In December 2015, 41-year-old Paula Poolton was found dead inside her Teesside home. At first glance, it appeared to be a tragic suicide — a woman alone, struggling, and overlooked. But as investigators took a closer look, unsettling details began to emerge. The scene didn’t quite add up. Witness statements conflicted. And questions lingered about who had really been with Paula in her final hours. In this episode of Terrified, we unravel the disturbing circumstances surrounding Paula Poolton’s death — a case marked by missed warning signs, shifting stories, and a justice system slow to react. Was this a woman failed by those meant to protect her, or something far more sinister? Listener discretion is advised. #truecrime #truecrimepodcast
