We are off to the county of Norfolk, on the east coast of the UK, and back to the mid 1980's, to hear two accounts of absolute horror this time on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast.

When you've heard them, I'm sure you'll see why they made the cut for this series "Monsters Of" episode. No other word will suffice. 

The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events, involving offences of a sexual nature involving children, and with descriptions of injury detail, that some listeners may find disturbing, and or distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening.

Remembering Chantel, and her family.

 Nothing is as terrifying as the sounds we hear in the dark. The slow creak of a door opening late at night... or a whisper in a room when you thought you were alone... or a distant scream in the wind. One noise at the wrong time or place can scare us for days.
 
 Each episode of I HEAR FEAR plunges the listener into a tale inspired by real events, from a deadly dance party to a cursed film set. Join host and two-time Oscar nominee Carey Mulligan for six immersive stories designed to jangle your nerves and haunt your dreams.
 
 Listen – if you dare. Only on Amazon Music.

Remembering Jason, Barry, Mark, and all of the other boys.

The penultimate part of The Lost Boys comes here this time around, and following the terrible crimes we've heard of, the lost boys that we've come to know, and the tireless and remarkable investigations you've heard me recount to bring some semblance of justice for Jason, Barry, and Mark - I started last episode bringing you the monsters behind the tale.

And whilst all offenders involved throughout the tale truly deserve the moniker "Monster" - I did save the two most deserving of it, I think, for this time around, for last.

The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events, involving children, involving injury detail, and involving descriptions of a sexual nature involving children, that some listeners may find offensive, disturbing, and or very highly distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening.
