On 18 January 1982, Imelda Marcos walked up a red carpet in peacock feathers to open the first Manila International Film Festival. Hollywood stars were there. Champagne flowed. The Greek-style temple on Manila Bay was supposed to make the city the Cannes of the East.

Two months earlier, in the middle of the night, part of the building had collapsed on the workers racing to finish it. Rescuers weren't allowed in for nine hours. Some say well over a hundred men died, and that some were never recovered. The architect said seven. Nobody has ever published a list of names.<...

A 63 year old starts on a 100 mile charity bike ride through the Highlands of Scotland. It was a big undertaking but Tony Parsons had done epic charity events before having walked Hadrian's Wall and the West Highland Way.

Somewhere between the Bridge of Orchy hotel and Tyndrum he vanishes, no sign of him or his bike or any evidence that Tony was even there.Three years go by and there is nothing. Then in 2020 a meeting on Tinder would unravel the whole case.

A case I swore I would never do because it's just so awful but when you visit Illinois on a tour of the US States by true crime and paranormal cases it's sort of hard to avoid. 

This episode comes with all the trigger warnings though I do try to avoid the gory detail it is not for the fainthearted - for lack of a better word, there is no judgement that comes with having to skip this episode.

In 1990, a convicted murderer walked out of an Austrian prison to a hero's welcome — celebrated by novelists, praised by a future Nobel laureate, held up as proof that even a killer could be remade into an artist. Five months later, women started disappearing again.

This episode traces the double life of Jack Unterweger: the "Poet of Death" who charmed Austria's literary elite, worked as a journalist covering the very murders he was committing, and left a trail of victims across four countries before a single, distinctive knot finally connected all of it back to him. We're telling this on...

For over fifty years, if someone was going to be hanged in Britain, chances were it would be a Pierrepoint holding the lever.

Henry, Thomas and Albert Pierrepoint were Britain's most extraordinary family of state executioners — three generations who between them hanged approximately nine hundred people, including Nazi war criminals, British traitors, serial killers, and at least one man who was almost certainly innocent. Albert alone carried out between 435 and 600 executions, perfecting a method so precise he could complete a hanging in under twelve seconds.

He hanged thirteen Nazi SS guards in a single day at Ha...

On the night of 27th January 1963, five people were shot across the suburbs of Perth, Western Australia. Four attacks. One night. No apparent connection.It would take months before police understood what they were dealing with. Years before the full truth came out. And decades before two innocent men — wrongfully convicted of crimes committed by the same killer — finally had their names cleared.

This is the story of Eric Edgar Cooke. Known as The Night Caller. Australia's last serial killer to be executed. A man whose crimes didn't just take lives — they destroyed them, long after he was gone.I...

On the morning of the 24th of January 2006, 24-year-old Jennifer Kesse left her Orlando condominium for work and seemingly vanished without a trace.Jennifer was ambitious, successful and excited about the future.

She had recently returned from a holiday with her boyfriend, was thriving in her career and had just purchased her first home. Then, in the space of a single morning, everything changed.Two days later, her car was discovered abandoned less than a mile from her apartment.

Security cameras captured an unknown person parking the vehicle before calmly walking away. Yet in one of...

In this episode, I explore the dark and fascinating history of digitalis, the powerful toxin derived from the foxglove plant. For centuries, foxglove has been admired for its beauty, growing wild across the British countryside and in cottage gardens, but hidden within its distinctive purple flowers is a substance capable of disrupting the human heart and causing death.

From its discovery as a revolutionary heart medication to its reputation as the perfect murder weapon, digitalis occupies a unique place in both medical history and true crime. I examine how the poison works, why it became so attractive to...

In this episode I explore the murder of Mia Zapata — lead singer of Seattle punk band The Gits — and one of the most haunting crimes connected to the 1990s grunge music scene.

In July 1993, Seattle was becoming the centre of the music world. Grunge had exploded into mainstream culture, underground clubs were packed every night and bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Soundgarden were transforming the city into a global phenomenon. But beneath the neon lights, cigarette smoke and distorted guitar sounds was a darker reality.

After a night out with friends, Mia Zapata disappeared while walk...

A boy goes out for a walk and never comes home. Horrible for the family but maybe he had gone to start a new life, follow his dream of playing music. Or perhaps he had perished in the woods around his home in Colorado. For seven years his family were in a state of 'grieving on hold'.

But then a body is discovered in a cabin just 2 blocks from the family home, and the story becomes so strange that it is remains unsolved to this day.

In this episode we explore the terrifying mystery known as the Great Basin Murders — a series of killings connected to isolated highways stretching across Nevada, Utah, Wyoming and Idaho during the 1980s and 1990s.

Women began disappearing along remote truck routes and desert highways before their bodies were discovered in abandoned terrain miles away from civilisation. Investigators initially believed a single serial killer was responsible, but over time the case became far more complicated.

The Great Basin Murders remain one of the most chilling unsolved serial killer mysteries in American true crime history. This episode contains di...

A young man jumps off a balcony in London. Tragic but not unsually in a country where men make up 75% of all suicides. But the story of why Zac Brettler was on the balcony in November 2019 and who he was with makes it apparent that he did not go there intending to end his life.

Often the problem with murder cases is the lack of evidence but when a family is murdered in their home on the 30th of December 2000 the opposite is true. Over 15,000 pieces of evidence are gathered and still we are no closer to knowing who committed this horrendous crime.
