138. Halloween 1984: Machete Murder of Doreen Erbert

Author: Paige Elmore October 31, 2022 Duration: 57:37
In San Jose, California, William Michael Dennis was holding a grudge against his ex-wife, Doreen Rae Hitchens-Erbert, and he had been for years. Michael blamed the 1980 accidental drowning death of their little boy on her. He felt she needed to be punished. A lawsuit against Doreen and her new husband, Charles Erbert, didn’t work. Therefore, he hatched an evil plan to punish Doreen, who was 8 months pregnant, himself on October 31st, 1984.

Hosted by Paige Elmore, Reverie True Crime explores the unsettling space between quiet thought and grim reality. The title itself is a deliberate contrast-a reverie is often a peaceful daydream, but our minds don't always wander to safe places. This podcast delves into those shadowy corners of curiosity about the darkest human acts. Each episode is built on a foundation of thorough research, examining not just the facts of a case but the profound cultural and societal ripples that follow. You’ll hear detailed narratives of long-forgotten mysteries and contemporary injustices, always with an ear for the human stories at their core. Paige guides listeners through these complex tales with a measured and thoughtful approach, focusing on the lasting impacts on victims, families, and communities. The show sits at the intersection of several genres, offering news-worthy updates, cultural analysis, and deep societal reflection, all through the lens of true crime. It’s for anyone who has ever wondered about the how and why behind the headlines, seeking understanding rather than sensationalism. In this podcast, the aim is to satisfy that haunting curiosity with respect and depth, transforming a simple daydream into a meaningful examination of the world's harder truths.
