Podcasts about strangler

If you came here to hear us talk about the awesome 1972 TV movie "The Night Strangler", I totally understand, but be prepared to not hear us talk much about it. It is awesome though.

Man this was a fun and intense spooky season episode.  First, we are joined by CJ from the Rainbow Crimes podcast and then Arthur covers a few things ranging from recent mental health struggles and to his gaming addiction to Dandy's World.  All four of us dig into the case of Herb Baumeister.  Herb is a possibly (and likely) gay man himself who hunted other gay men whom he brought back to his home to murder.  In addition, authorities in Indiana and Ohio believe him to also be the I-70 Strangler and victims of both series of murders were found on his farm.  To date over 1pppp bone fragments have been discovered there.  We cover Herb's family, his somewhat creepy early life, his eventual marriage to Juliana Saiter and their relationship and so very much more.  We talk about the murders, the victims we know about and we talk about the hauntings that seem to go on to this very day in this special spooky season episode of the Family Plot Podcast.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/family-plot--4670465/support.

SEASON 3 FINALE!

On night 4 of our #31DaysToHalloween the Mister joins me in reviewing THE STRANGLER (1964), from director Burt Topper, from a screenplay by Bill S. Ballinger.  Victor Buono stars as Leo Kroll, a lonely, mother-fixated hospital lab technician who secretly harbors a deep-seated rage against women, which he acts out by serially murdering young nurses and leaving broken dolls at his crime scenes. Kroll's overbearing mother (Ellen Corby), who is a hospital patient, constantly belittles him and convinces him that no woman could ever love him, fueling his dark impulses and his need to kill those he finds attractive and unattainable. After his mother dies and the rejection of a young woman he admires pushes him over the edge, the police finally track him down, leading to a violent confrontation where Kroll plunges to his death.  The film clocks in at 1 h and 29 m, is rated Approved. We caught the film on TCM but it is streaming on Fawesome and Tubi and to buy/rent on Prime Video.  Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.#TheStrangler #BurtTopper #BillSBallinger #VictorBuono #LeoKroll #DavidMcLean #LtFrankBenson #DianeSayer #BarbaraWells #DaveyDavison #TallyRaymond #BaynesBarron #SgtMackClyde #EllenCorby #MrsKroll #SeletteCole #Helen #PsychologicalThriller #SerialKiller #Crime #Drama #Horror  @tcm  @FawesomeTv  @Tubi  ⁠@PrimeVideo ⁠ ⁠#31DaysToHalloween #SpookySeason #Day4  #FridayFamilyFilmNightOpening intro music: GOAT by Wayne Jones, courtesy of YouTube Audio

Episode 386: In the last episode, we explored the origins of Herbert Baumeister and the early days at Fox Hollow, tracing the stories of early disappearances of gay men around Indiana. The disappearances beginning in the late 1980s and into the 1990s signalled the start of a wave of heartbreak that swept through Indianapolis's gay community, leaving families and friends desperate for answers.  In this episode, we turn our focus to the other lives forever altered by Herb Baumeister's crimes. We'll share what's known about the final days of Baumeister's other victims. Among them were Jeffrey Allan Jones, Roger Alan Goodlet, Michael Frederick Keirn, Steven Spurlin Hale, Richard Douglas Hamilton Jr., Johnny Bayer, Allen Wayne Broussard, and Daniel Thomas Halloran. As their stories unfold, we'll follow the determined police investigation, the pressure that began to close in on Baumeister, and his frantic flight from justice. This case, originating in quiet Indiana neighbourhoods, fades out across the border—coming to a haunting end here in Canada. Episode Sources: Who Was Herb Baumeister?

In a case that captured national attention in 1929, a beautiful young schoolteacher went missing one Friday afternoon. Her husband was ill and in bed all day, at least according to him. This week we cover the scandal that spurred legend, lore, and facination for the past century in York County.

Episode 385: The killings at Fox Hollow Farm are one of Indiana's darkest chapters. In the early 1990s, Herb Baumeister, a husband, father, and thrift store owner, lived a double life in the upscale suburb of Westfield. Behind the facade of Fox Hollow Farm, he is believed to have lured young men, mostly from local gay bars, to his home, where police later uncovered the remains of at least 25 victims scattered across the estate. Hundreds of burned and crushed bones were found by investigators, revealing years of concealed brutality. As the net closed in, Baumeister fled to Canada and took his own life at Pinery Provincial Park, leaving unanswered questions and devastated families in his wake. Sources: Who Was Herb Baumeister?

They called it Fox Hollow Farm, a quiet estate tucked away in the Indiana woods. By day, its owner, Herb Baumeister, was a family man, a businessman, someone who seemed perfectly ordinary. But at night, shadows lengthened, and secrets began to stir. Men vanished, whispers grew louder, and a chilling pattern emerged—one that would forever stain the ground where the farmhouse stood. What lay hidden beneath the surface was far darker than anyone could have imagined. As investigators began to connect the dots, they uncovered a chilling story that would leave a community shaken and questioning how well we ever truly know the people living next door.SOURCES: 1) UPI Focus: Sheriffs link 9 deaths to Indiana man2) Cold cases: Lyons homicide not only unsolved investigation3) Bone found during Sunday search of Herbert Baumeister property4) Remains found on serial killer's Indiana estate identified as man missing since 19935) While Julie Was Away6) The Hunter of Fox Hollow: Part One7) 'Several Tragedies' Still Left in Fox Hollow Farm Serial Killer Case, Coroner Says8) 10th victim identified in Fox Hollow Farm serial killer case in Indiana9) Encyclopedia of Indianapolis: Herbert R.

Buonopalooza rages on with Victor Buono front and center in The Strangler (1964). One of his rare leading roles, Buono embodies Leo Kroll, a smothered man-child whose repressed rage against women spills into murder. Loosely modeled on the Boston police department's profile of the Boston Strangler—and hitting theaters mere months after Albert DeSalvo's confession—the film walks a fine line between crime drama and exploitation, delivering Buono at his creepiest.

If you think about the 1920s in the United States, a few things might come to mind—jazz, prohibition, Babe Ruth, and, right at the end, the Wall Street Crash. And if you think of crime, you probably think of Al Capone, bootlegging, and fast-talking wise guys with Tommy guns. But the 1920s were also in some ways the nation's introduction to crimes that could shock and horrify the entire country. Leopold and Loeb's thrill killing, the kidnapping and murder of the Lindbergh baby, the utter horror of child-killer and cannibal Albert Fish. And possibly the most prolific killer of the decade was a man whose strange desires sent him on a trail of murder all across a continent.Join Katie and Whitney, plus the hosts of Last Podcast on the Left, Sinisterhood, and Scared to Death, on the very first CRIMEWAVE true crime cruise!

This week, Matt and Britt travelled to Huntington to celebrate WV Day weekend. They stopped at Camden Corner for donuts, but this cozy convenience store has plenty of other delicious food to try, featuring a full deli and hot bar. Nicest people, most adorable donut box ever. Located 3002 Piedmont Rd, Huntington, WV. Open Mon-Fri 6:30 AM-9:00 PM, Sat-Sun 7:00 AM-9:00 PM. Here's what we tried:Donuts: Strawberry jam and cream "hotdog", chocolate glazed buttercream filled, glazed, glazed cream filled, apple filled, lemon filled. Cream horn was eaten prior to recording...Then, Kelsey covers the story of a woman in Anchorage, Alaska who had stolen an sd card from the console of a vehicle while on a supposed date. Years later, it would be used as evidence in the trial of Brian Steven Smith, who was on trial and recently sentenced for multiple murders. The card was filled with horrid photos and video of Smith and his victims. This episode is graphic in detail, discretion advised.Also, Matt lacks his usual zhuzh. He missed his opportunities to zhuzh when it mattered and he blew it. He makes up for it by covering other things to do in Huntington, including driving around to find the locations used in the 60's movie that was filmed there - Teen-age Strangler!

What makes a serial killer? Why are we interested in knowing?We cannot predict whether someone will become a psychopath, but when someone is discovered to be a psychopathic killer, you can often trace it back to their childhood.The case of the Boston Stranger predates the so-called golden age of the serial killer and still confounds us today.In the early 1960s, a rash of murders terrified the city of Boston. Women were being found brutally killed across the city, and the region. There was no clear pattern though, some shared the same hallmarks.The Boston Strangler case gripped the city of Boston between 1962 and 1964, when 13 women aged 19 to 85 were murdered in their homes. Most were sexually assaulted and strangled, often with their own clothing, and the killer left no signs of forced entry—suggesting the victims may have willingly let him in. The crimes were initially believed to be the work of a single person, and the two intripid female reporters began to connect the cases, dubbing this unknown assailant “The Boston Strangler.” Public fear surged, and women were arming themselves for protection.In 1965, Albert DeSalvo, a man already in custody for unrelated attacks on women, confessed to the murders. Why he confessed, whether for notoriety or something else, like immunity from prosecution in those crimes, his guilt was in dispute for decades. It has been a long held belief by investigators and case experts that not all of the 13 victims were killed by the same person. Because of the varying ages and circumstances of each victim, the patterns in each case didn't quite add up. Even some of the surviving assault victims did not believe Desalvo did not believe he was their attacker, Though never formally charged with the killings, his confession and knowledge of crime scene details led many to believe he was the one responsible. However, doubts lingered for decades due to inconsistencies in his statements and lack of physical evidence.A player in another high profile case has a connection to the Strangler case. The Boston Police Sergeant and Surveillance Expert who followed nephew, Tim Desalvo, to his worksite and retrieved an item for DNA would help break the case of Mary's murder, Boston Police Sergeant Brian Albert, of the Alberts who formerly resided at 34 Fairview Rd in Canton, Massachusetts.It was due to this where, in 2013, that nephew's DNA was insturmental in definitively linking DeSalvo to the final victim, a 19-year-old woman new to the city from Cape Cod. While many had ruled out Mary Sullivan as an actual Strangler victim, DNA evidence came back with a match, providing the strongest forensic tie to the case. Still, some experts believe multiple killers may have been involved, leaving the truth of the Boston Strangler murders a mystery. Mary Sullivan's case is the only case of the Boston Strangler investigation with a forensic conclusion.

True Crime Tuesday presents: The Crack City Strangler: The Homicides of Serial Killer Benjamin Atkins  with Researcher/Journalist/Author, B.R. Bates! Benjamin "Tony" Atkins' reign of terror in Detroit spanned less than a year in the early 1990s. Known for targeting vulnerable women in Detroit's most dangerous neighborhoods, Atkins attacked at least 13 women along a mile-and-a-half stretch of Woodward Avenue, one of the city's most iconic streets. Known as "the nation's fastest serial killer," Atkins' crimes were brutal and relentless, leaving victims abandoned in the dark corners of the Cass Corridor and Highland Park. Only when the lone survivor of his horrific spree came forward did law enforcement begin to connect the dots and ultimately capture the monster behind the killings. On today's TCT, B.R. Bates joins the show to talk about the specifics of the case, What motivated Benjamin Aktins to attack and strangle sex workers, and we answer the question, "Would Benjamin had become a serial killer if he had a fighting chance at life to begin with?" This story will make you feel conflicted as to whether you can truly hate a serial killer!
