Hello, campers. Grab your marshmallows and gather around the true crime campfire.

We're your camp counselors. I'm Katie and I'm Whitney.

And we're here to tell you a true story that is way stranger than fiction.

We're roasting murderers and marshmallows around the

true crime campfire.

Nords are usually pretty harmless. We know because we are nerds. More often than not, we're just smart people who are passionate about our interests. Gaming or comics or sci-fi or putting on cool costumes and going to cons.

Most of us don't want any trouble. But once in a great while, as we've seen on the show once before, you get yourself a bad nerd.

This is when nerds attack, the murder of Leith von Stein. So, campers, we're in the picturesque little town of Little Washington, North Carolina, July 25th, 1988.

A nice place, about two hours outside of Raleigh.

A pig farmer was driving home from loading some livestock into a truck at about 4 o'clock in the morning.

They do that at night in the summer because it's too hot during the day, and he suddenly came

upon a fire by the side of the road.

Now this guy was a volunteer firefighter and he could tell from the smell that this was a set accelerated fire.

He could smell the kerosene and the whole scene as you can imagine gave him an eerie feeling.

Just to come up on a fire suddenly like

that in the darkness creepy and it had rained that day and the ground was wet so

he knew there wasn't any real danger of the fire spreading so he went home and called the police from there.

About 20 minutes later, a call came in to the dispatcher's office in Little Washington.

The voice on the other end was a woman's and it was so faint and

tiny that the operator could barely hear it, but she heard her say, I need help.

So the dispatcher said, I'm sorry I need you to speak up and the woman said,

my husband and I have been beaten and stabbed.
