We're coming at your this week with another old list/new list! We've done murdered on vacation stories before, but it's such a good topic, we figured we should do it again (also, 'tis the season!) These cases are frustrating and weird, and of course very, veyr sad. But they are also a warning to be careful while vacationing, especially if doing so …

This week, we are turning once again to the wild world of the romantic, and looking at first dates that went horribly horribly wrong. It’s very dangerous, it seems, to be a person trying to date! These tales of horror from the dating world include a suspicious accident on the freeway, two dates who were terrifyingly uncaring, and a date that would …

We're back this week with a classic topic, and one we've covered before. Sadlly, there are so many cases under this topic that we decided to cover it again - and we'll likely do it again sometime! These are cases of people murdered (or, as you'll see, murdered?) On a first date. These tales are mostly of sucky dudes behaving as such, and the horrif…

This week, we’re turning to a subject relatable to anyone who regularly braves our roads and highways - road rage murders!

This week, we turn to the fascinating and frustrating topic of false confessions. It’s hard to imagine confessing to a murder you didn’t commit, and incredibly infuriating to follow how corrupt investigators build entire cases based on these shaky statements.

This week, dear listeners, we're diving into a topic that is the epitome of pathetic - killers who can't even murder in an original way. That's right, these horrible humans are not only totally evil, they are also completely uncreative and have to steal the murderous MO's of other killers, riding their horrific coattails into infamy. The only redee…

This week, Twisted Listeners, we take a look at a few infuriating cases of false confessions. Of all the topics we've covered, few have had so many stories to choose from, which was both fun for research, and upsetting to know so many people got to prison for no reason at all, sometimes for their entire lives. These cases range from vindicating to …

Sometimes, Twisted Listers, on top of being murderous evil doers, certain killers are also absolutely the biggest dorks on the planet. This week, we celebrate that by covering cases of murderers with horrible, silly, sad, and weird manifestos.

After a week away, we’re back with an iconic true crime topic: serial killer truckers. It’s no secret that the trucking occupation lends itself to murdering and making a quick escape on the highway, so these itinerant drivers make up a good chunk of the gnarliest serial killers around. Featuring a brutal killer who stalked the Pacific Northwest, a …

We're back this week, dear twisted listeners, with a classic topic we are shocked we've never covered: killer truckers! This profession is a favorite among serial killers, and with good reason - it's hard to track them, they can pray on the vulnerable, and they have plenty of time alone, where nobody can say they weren't working. It's a pretty scar…

This week, we’ve turned to the haunting and fascinating topic of murder convictions with no body - a circumstance so rare that it used to be legally prohibited in some places.

This week, we're covering cases involving a striking lack of evidence: murders without bodies! These cases all end in what we would call a satisfying conclusion, with the bad guy behind bars, but the interesting part is how these people came to be convicted of a murder that couldn't fully be proven. How can you be sure a murder took place if there'…

The second half of this list is so much worse than the first, mostly because both victims are truly innocent and somehow ended up as part of a weird web of lies and jealousy. In both cases, we have an abusive husband, wife without a way out, and an unsuspecting 'lover' who doesn't even realize they're about to pay the ultimate price simply for look…

This week, we’re getting in the romantic Valentine’s season, but with a dark and sinister twist - murders motivated by unrequited love. While the strange feelings that some of these killers embody can hardly be called “love,” it definitely led them to feel broken-hearted in their own sick, stupid ways. Featuring a deadly love triangle, a family mas…

This week, we're getting themey again with murder inspired by the Valentine's Day holiday.

This week we delve into cases from around the world, lest we forget that terrible tales exist outside of the US. These stories are not only horrifying, but so often preventable, and really show the lack of action by those meant to protect us, not only here, but also abroad.
