    In early 1970s Houston, Texas, businessman Dean Corll used free candy, a party-ready apartment, and a carefully cultivated reputation as a community pillar to lure teenage boys to their deaths. But behind his friendly facade, Corll was systematically grooming victims... and recruiting young accomplices to help him carry out increasingly brutal crimes. This episode traces his childhood, his escalating predatory behavior, and the first chapter of a murder spree that would claim dozens of lives.

It is these lesser known cases that makes this podcast stand out. The resident psychologist also has some very insightful thoughts and information on the cases. The only thing I'm not a fan of is the hosts almost 'monotone' telling of these stories and the disjointed partnership of her and her Psychologist co-host. Good but could be better.

A good podcast about some lesser known serial Killers
