42 | Penny Dreadfuls: 3 True Crime Cases
In this episode, I’m bringing you a collection of short but grisly cases from the 1800s, which on their own would be too short for an episode, but they’re too intriguing not to share so I’ve put three of them together. Let’s go back in time for a whistle-stop tour of three crimes ranging from the brutal to the mysterious. If you’re looking for murders involving deceptions, an unscrupulous businessman who exterminated an entire family, an execution by guillotine, a strange letter, the death of a living scarecrow and more, this ‘Penny Dreadfuls’ episode has you covered with these bitesize blood-soaked crimes.Thanks for listening!

41 | John Martin Scripps: The Travelling Serial Killer
When a pair of legs washed up in Clifford Pier Harbour in Singapore, the police knew something was very wrong. That same week, a South African tourist who had travelled to the country to buy the latest electronics was reported missing. He would never make it home. Somehow, in a country with one of the lowest crime rates in the world and a draconian criminal justice system, he fell prey to British serial killer John Scripps, who travelled the world murdering unsuspecting tourists and butchering their bodies. Who was Scripps, and how did the police track him down?Thanks for listening!

40 | The Mysterious Axeman of New Orleans
What kind of killer could chisel out the panel of a door and creep inside without waking a soul? How was he so light on his feet that nobody heard him coming on the dark, moonless nights on which he struck? That’s what the people of New Orleans were asking themselves when their city was terrorised by a mysterious Axeman who targeted Italian grocers, leaving nothing behind but blood, fear, and a discarded weapon - and taking nothing with him except the secret of his identity. He came and went like a phantom, spreading a wave of brutality through the City of Festivals that would not easily be forgotten.

35 | Lynn Siddons : The Canal Towpath Murder
Why did it take so long for the killer of 16-year-old Lynn Siddons to be brought to justice? This case involved a man who was obsessed with Jack the Ripper and blamed his crimes on his stepson, and a police force who were woefully inefficient in tackling the case. Lynn’s tenacious grandmother was forced to fight for the truth, in an 18-year legal battle that no bereaved family should ever have to endure.Thanks for listening!

It should have been obvious that for school cleaner Vincent Stanford, spying on girls in the bathroom was just the beginning. When he began stalking a 12-year-old pupil and amassed hundreds of photos of her, it was only a matter of time before he escalated to rape and murder. His victim was dedicated teacher Stephanie Scott, whose life he cut short just days before her wedding, in a case that shocked a small New South Wales community.Thanks for listening!

32 | The Peak District Murders
A birdwatching getaway in the Peak District that should have been uneventful was the inspiration for this episode, with my wife and I accidentally choosing to stay just a few hundred yards from the scene of a notorious set of murders, which we learned about by chance. It seems that true crime follows me everywhere… (my wife still doesn’t believe that I really didn’t know when we booked it!)The lives of an escaped criminal and an unsuspecting family converge in a dramatic and bloody home invasion set against the cold, bleak, back-drop of Beeley Moor in 1977, a period which would become known as the ‘Year of the Knife’. This episode covers the Pottery Cottage murders and culminates in an explosive finale, while the next instalment will explore the Gunn Hill killings, which took place just a month later.************************************************************************************** Thanks for listening!

29 | Rosalyn Nolte : Murder in the Bush
It was Christmas of 1970, and Charles King and Christopher Lowery were watching a motorcycle race at Mack Park in Hamilton, Australia. Most 18-year-olds at the race that day were innocently chatting about bikes and beer. But Lowery and King were not most 18-year-olds, and they were talking about what it would be like to kill a girl. It was only a matter of time before they turned their thoughts into reality.Thanks for listening!

Catherine Eddowes was arrested for her own safety after being found drunk in the street, and ironically met her demise just 400 yards from the police station minutes after her release, her corpse mutilated in the most vicious and disgusting way that had yet been seen. ***Don’t forget to rate and review on your favourite Podcatcher***Thanks for listening!

23 | Jack The Ripper Part 3: The Murder Of Annie Chapman
We’re back for part 3 of this miniseries, so buckle up for a hair-raising, spine-chilling ride as the most famous serial killer of all time claims his second canonical victim… and for the first time, claims his name – Jack The Ripper. We’ll learn about Annie Chapman and tell her story, as we try to piece together the events of the Autumn of Terror. It’s not for the faint-hearted. ***Please don’t forget to rate and review on your favourite Podcatcher***Thanks for listening!
