What's up you guys, I'm Haley, and I'm Andrea, and this is Inhuman, a true crampot guest.

All right, welcome back everybody. Again, it feels so freaking good to be back. And again, as my case on Thursday, in case you don't listen to that one, I did read.

I did research for this case before I had a baby. And I don't remember most of the research. So yeah, our plan was that we were going to pre-record a bunch of episodes. So Haley could enjoy at least a month maternity leave. And then, you know how babies are there on their own time. And he decided he was going to come a week early.

Yep, yep. I literally texted Andrea the day that I went into labor. I didn't tell anyone I was like in labor or anything for a little while. And then once it was confirmed that like, yes, I'm in labor. I'm staying at the hospital. I texted her. And I think I just said like, so I don't think I can record this weekend. And I said her like a picture of me in the hospital.

Yeah. So I was like, yep, no, yeah. So this was one that we were going to record that weekend that never happened. So worked out though. We were able to move some things around. And yeah, it worked out well. It's been a month. And we're back. But I will be discovering this story with you guys as I tell it. So this is a Newsy, right. It is a doozy. And it's one that has been highly requested. And we both kind of been avoiding it because it is a rough one.

But I finally decided back when I was doing research for this that I wanted to learn more about this case, because I really didn't know much about it aside from like the main gory detail.

Right.

So I started reading up on it. And I was like, you know what, I'll put it into notes and I'll share this with you guys.

So this is the acid bath murders. And like I said, and as you can probably guess from the title, this is a rough one. Very gruesome.

Very. I won't go too much into details, but I will share some of the details, but I'll all kind of give you a warning when that's going to happen. So you can skip ahead a little bit if you want to miss some of those details.

So we're going to start out with John George Hague, who was born on July 24th, 1909 in Stanford, Lincolnshire, England. And I am so sorry if I miss pronounced that. I looked it up, but I think that's right.

Lincolnshire Lincolnshire.

I think the way that Americans would say it, but that's not the right way. Yeah, exactly. That's what I was going to say.

Okay. So that's where he was born.

He was born to John Robert and Emily Hague. He was raised in a religious household as his family were members of a conservative Protestant church.

And he would later claim that he suffered from quote recurring religious nightmares during childhood.

So don't know exactly what that means, but I was like, is that a thing? I mean, I guess it could be if you're in like any kind of extreme fundamentalist.

Yeah, I think that's found out what nightmares. I mean, that's kind of what he meant. But again, this is what he claims. So take it with grain of salt. Okay.

He would also later say that his parents were very strict. They wouldn't let him bring friends over and that they even built a seven foot fence around the house to prevent others from getting in.

I mean,

again, what he says, but, you know, I would definitely build a seven foot fence around my yard to keep my children safe. But like, I would too.

I feel like it nowadays, that's like normal, but maybe back then it wasn't really like the standard. You just had like short little white picket fences, not like large fences.
