Hello, delicious friends, and welcome back to Who Did What Now, the History Podcast that is not

your history class with me, your host, Katie Charlwood, History Horror and Reader of Books.

And this is part two of the Texarkana Moonlight Murders.

When in 1946, over a span of 10 weeks, a killer or killers,

stalked lovers lanes spreading fear and panic throughout the region,

which of course was spurred on, unsurprisingly, by the press.

Now, this again is part two, so if you haven't listened to part one, you're gonna want to go do that

because that gives us our context and the first attacks.

Now, again, this is our blanket, blanket warning. It's just best to do it again. Your

blanket trigger warning. This is a series of attacks and murders from 1946. I am going to be as

clinical as possible when discussing attacks and injuries. However,

if you feel uncomfortable, if you feel like this is going to cause you any distress whatsoever

with the discussion of murder, violence against men, women, children, sexual assault and suicide, These are all going to be discussed in this episode

and if this is going to cause you any issues, I'm going to suggest gently that you exit

stage left and we'll catch you next time. That being said, this is a series on 1940s

crime that we are covering this month because

what better way to start the new year than with 1940s crime specifically, mainly so I can

do this voice, and a few other reasons. There's actually considerably less gibber-jabber in this

episode, specifically because, specifically

because I have a lot to get through. This is information dense. So get a snack, get a blanket,

curl up. If you've got a task that's going to require an hour or more to do, then on up because this is this is um this is gonna be a lot okay so

without further ado i know katie quit your knot jibble jubble and fact fact you, I will, because all the sources are listed in the previous episode.
