    26: EPISODE 26 // The Dexter Killer: Mark Twitchell
    Nov 23 2023
    In this episode, we’re doing a deep dive into the twisted fate of Mark Twitchell, aka ‘The Dexter Killer’. late 20th century, the chilling phenomenon of copy-cat killers gained popularity, referring to disturbed individuals replicating the methods of infamous criminals. This twisted trend took a sinister turn in Edmonton, Canada, where a 29-year-old filmmaker, Mark Twitchell, plunged into an eerie obsession with Dexter Morgan, a fictional character from the TV series "Dexter." Twitchell, fueled by a macabre desire for notoriety, envisioned himself as a real-life vigilante serial killer. His gruesome plan unfolded as he lured innocent and unsuspecting men by using online personas, leading them to a meticulously prepared 'kill room.' Twitchell's dark ambitions were documented in a haunting manuscript as he aimed to translate his horrifying experiences into a blockbuster horror film, with the goal of catapulting himself into a world of fame and fortune. However, his plan was abruptly halted after his first murder, putting an end to his dangerous quest for fame and fortune.

    In this episode, we discuss the innocent man who fell victim to Twitchell’s plan, Johnny Altinger, as well as a separate man who would later come forward as a survivor. We touch on the element of men’s safety and the shame associated with them being victimized.

    25: EPISODE 25 // Luka Magnotta
    Aug 23 2023
    In May of 2012, friends of Chinese university student, Jun Lin, reported him missing from Montreal, Canada. Days later, rumors of a real-life murder video were circulating online. The friend that reported Jun Lin missing happened to click on the video, and a wave of terror came over him when he realized the victim in the snuff film was his missing friend.


    Jun Lin’s torso was found in a suitcase swarming with flies, and his dismembered hands and feet were mailed to elementary schools and Canadian political parties. The perpetrator would soon be identified as Luka Rocco Magnotta, and a worldwide manhunt was on.


    Join us on Episode 25 as we dig into who Luka Magnotta was, his horrific pattern of animal abuse, and posting disturbing and upsetting videos of himself committing the most unspeakable acts online. Luka was narcissistic, psychopathic, fame-starved, and an absolutely disgusting, pathetic excuse of a human.

    24: EPISODE 24 // The Murder of Holly Jones
    Jul 13 2023
    In Toronto, on a spring evening in 2003, ten year old Holly Jones walked her friend home after they had a playdate at her house. Holly spoke with her friend’s mother before heading back to her family home, which was in the same neighbourhood, but she didn’t make it there. This was completely out of character for Holly and her family was frantic. Her disappearance, which happened in broad daylight, led to the issuing of Ontario’s first amber alert. News stations, billboards and radios around the province spoke of the missing girl and a massive search began. Hundreds of community members and investigators began helping in the search to find Holly, and eventually to find the man that Holly’s mother refers to as “The monster”.

    The case of the murder of Holly Jones will be live in the coming days. It is a truly heartbreaking story that involves a loving family, a dedicated police force and a community coming together.
