The Dating Game Killer Was TV's Creepiest Game Show Contestant

Back in the 1970s, a serial killer named Rodney Alcala managed to charm his way onto the hit show "The Dating Game" and even WON, but his creepy behavior off-camera raised a ton of red flags. Perhaps surprisingly, Alcala's not the only serial killer to go on a national syndicated game show. We ask why society's most notorious murderers willingly parade their identity for all to see, and get inside the psychology of Alcala and his twisted contemporaries.

Leave us a review -- it helps the show! :)
