Due to the graphic nature of this killer's crimes, listener discretion is advised.

This episode includes discussions of murder and assault that some people may find offensive.

We advise extreme caution for children under 13.

Ed Kemper detested his mother.

She belittled him and mocked him.

She refused to show him affection because she didn't want him to behave effeminently.

She drove away his father. She drank heavily. She forced him to sleep in a dark basement away from the rest of the family.

Ed's hatred for his mother consumed his every waking thought.

He dreamed about beating her, stabbing her, killing her.

He even dreamt about defiling her corpse.

For years, his anger festered, it grew into a monster that controlled Ed's every waking thought.

And like all monsters, Ed's hid in the darkness,

in the space under the bed, just waiting for his victims to fall asleep. Hi, I'm Greg Polson, and this is Serial Killers.
