All this talk that I slept with the dead ones or had sex with dead bodies, there is no truth to any of that.

I lived in the mortuary, yes, but not in the embalming room.

I mean, they make it sound like, you know, I slept in the crypts with them.

And I never climbed into a coffin or anything like that.

That is so damn ridiculous.

And besides, the dead won't bother you.

It's the living you gotta worry about.

Ten-minute murder contains depictions of actual crimes.

What you are about to hear is real and violent in nature.

Discretion is advised.

This is ten-minute murder. Welcome to the brief and binge Welcome to the brief and bingeable true crime podcast, 10-minute murder.

I'm Joe, and thanks for being here, this extra creepy Halloween special edition of the podcast.

The 10-minute part of 10-minute murder is going to be a fib today.

It's going to be much longer than 10 minutes.

Kind of a deep dive.

And today, the focus is on a serial killer that scares me more than any other in the history of ever.

I've avoided talking about him.

I've had legit nightmares about him.

And I don't know why I'm even talking about it now because it isn't going to end well for my sleep.

And yeah, we're breaking with normal rules of sticking to 10 minutes.

So if you're wondering why I'm still talking longer than I normally do, that's why.

Before we get going, take a second to subscribe to 10-minute murder if you haven't already.
