A woman reinvestigates the murders that defined her high school years in the 1980s, murders that appear to be happening all over again with a new round of unexplainable, bizarre, and violent deaths. Is it just a stroke of bad luck for this charming small town, or is it a dark curse that refuses to be buried? Inspired by a true story where the coming-of-age drama of John Hughes movies meets the nostalgia-laced chills of Stranger Things. This is THE MURDER YEARS.

Customer Reviews
Random
The podcast descriptions imply an overarching story of some sort, but so far it’s just a lot of random murders that are solved immediately. There is no sense of suspense or mystery or connection that something connects these murders or of an overarching explanation for why the town experienced this. Well-produced and decently acted (with some way overacting by some), but getting repetitive and boring at episode four.
Great!!!!
This was great and if it was real let’s be thankful that it was solved… why do we want unsolved cases I rather know it that it can be done but this was a great story though high school to adult hood keep it going!!
The Worst Scooby Doo Ever
Are you interested in a series of murders over decades that don’t have anything in common or a story that connects them all together? Then buckle yourself in for hours of wasted listening with this series. Each episode is marginally interesting but the series horribly fails to deliver on promise.
