12 Disturbing True Crime Stories of Murder and Mayhem

Volume 17 of the True Crime Case Histories Series

*** This series can be listened to in any order ***

Journey into the darkest corners of the human psyche with twelve meticulously researched accounts of unspeakable crimes that shocked communities and challenged our understanding of evil.

From sprawling estates to quiet small towns, these cases reveal how murderous intent can hide behind the most ordinary facades—sometimes in places we least expect.

A sampling of the stories includes:

The Butcher of Aberdeen–In a quiet Australian town, a troubled woman with a history of violence transforms from slaughterhouse worker to something far more sinister. When her partner tries to leave, she commits an act so grotesque that even veteran police officers are left traumatized.

The House on Langworthy Road–A desperate teenage girl seeking acceptance finds herself at the mercy of a group of sadistic tormentors. For seven horrifying days, they subject her to unimaginable suffering before their final act of cruelty on a remote hillside.

The REDRUM Murder–When a bizarre homicide rocks a Pennsylvania community, the crime scene reveals a chilling message written in blood—a reference to a famous horror film that transformed a robbery gone wrong into something far more disturbing.

Child of Chaos–England's youngest female double murderer wasn't born evil—she was shaped by a world of squalor and addiction. By fifteen, she had committed crimes so brutal that they shocked a nation and forced a reckoning with how society fails its most vulnerable.

Plus, eight more shocking true crime stories, including a bonus thirteenth chapter at the end.

These cases expose the depths of human depravity—glimpses into the abyss of pure evil. While we may never fully comprehend what drives killers to commit such heinous acts, studying these histories provides valuable insights into the darkest capabilities of the human mind.
