13 Serial Killers Later – Our 600th Episode - Serial Killer Retrospective

Author: Hosted by Shannon and Cathy | Horror Both Real and Fictional July 31, 2025 Duration: 34:59

Welcome to our 600th episode! 🎉 In this milestone edition of Terror Talk Podcast, we look back on 7 seasons of true crime deep dives featuring some of the most disturbing and infamous names in criminal history. From the manipulative charm of Ted Bundy to the terrifying depravity of Albert Fish, we've spent years diving into the dark minds of murderers—and today, we reflect on it all.

Over the years, we’ve covered:

  • Lizzie Borden, with insights from The Trial of Lizzie Borden by Carla Robertson

  • The cultish terror of Charles Manson

  • Jeffrey Dahmer, the “Milwaukee Cannibal”

  • Richard Kuklinski, aka The Iceman

  • The night-stalking horror of Richard Ramirez, including Night Stalker by Philip Carlo

  • The chilling crimes of The Toy Box Killer

  • The twisted clown persona of John Wayne Gacy

  • The cult leader turned killer, Jim Jones

  • The calculating BTK killer, Dennis Rader

  • The spree killer charm of John Paul Knowles

  • The Happy Face Killer, Keith Jesperson

  • And finally, the monstrous acts of Albert Fish

This episode is all about reflection—what we’ve learned, which episodes shook us most, and a few of our favorites to record. It’s also a celebration of how far we’ve come in exploring the psychology of serial killers, media portrayals, and the dark fascination that keeps true crime fans coming back for more.

🧠 Expect some psychological insights, memorable quotes, fun behind-the-scenes anecdotes, and a little bit of our signature dark humor to balance it all out.

🚨 Trigger Warning: This episode includes conversations about murder, gore, and disturbing criminal behavior. Listener discretion is advised.
