Los Angeles is often regarded as a city of dreams, with bright lights and a promise of fame and fortune. But behind the glamour lives darkness. Between 2001 and 2008, a man who appeared to his neighbours to be calm, unassuming, and ordinary walked the city streets. What they didn’t know was that he was a monster.

So, turn down the lights, my spooky friends. You are about to hear the tale of a serial killer who was brought to justice with the help of a television show and a famous actor. But before we get started, I want to give all of you a little heads up. Today, we will be talking about graphic murders, mutilation and child abuse. Listener discretion is advised.

Many people’s childhoods were filled with Disney movies. In these films, there usually is a downtrodden girl who, against all odds, becomes the heroine. But Disney did not come up with the premise of many of their animated films. They borrowed the idea from many classic works.

In those versions, the princess does not necessarily meet their Prince Charming and live happily ever after.

So, snuggle in, my spooky friends. It’s story time.

Imagine that you and your family set off for the trip of a lifetime, but soon your dream vacation turns into a nightmare when your child goes missing. She was never found, but over the next twenty-eight years, there have been credible sightings that suggest she is still alive and is being held captive.

So, put on your sunscreen, my spooky friends. You are about to hear a tale about a young woman who boarded a cruise ship and was never seen by her loved ones again.
