  • Episode 94: The Candy Man Dean Corll
    Mar 12 2025

    Prepare yourselves for a descent into darkness as we cover one of the very first modern serial killers: the Candy Man, Dean Corll.

    A sadist and sexual psychopath who lurked in the shadows of Houston Texas for years, abducting, torturing and killing, the most prolific killer in the United States at that time. A case made even darker by the strange underground ties he had with other sociopaths and killers, including John Wayne Gacy, the infamous killer clown.

    Discretion is advised.
