Hi, Park enthusiasts. I'm your host, Dilya Deambre. Can you believe we're nearing the

end of season 3 already? I hope the stories I've shared with you this summer have honored

the victims, while at the same time reminding us how dangerous the elements and people lurking

in the great outdoors can be. There's one more episode next week, but after that I'll

be taking a break for a few months. Don't worry though, I'll return with new episodes.

Before I took the time away though, I knew I needed to tell you today's wild story. It's

sites of the towering pine trees. He was busy burying bodies, at least seven of them,

and authorities now believe possibly more. This is Park Predators.

In December 29, 1989, Pat Everest was at her home in the suburbs of Melbourne, Australia,

when her phone rang. On the other end of the line was her 19-year-old

daughter, Deborah. Deborah was calling to let her mom know that she and her boyfriend,
