Between The Madness - Episode 8 - Where Evil Hides - The Geneva Street Murders

Author: Grip Tape April 16, 2026 Duration: 21:05

On an October night in Aurora, Colorado, a young mother called 911 after finding something in her home that should not have been there. Her ex-boyfriend’s clothes. His keys. Signs that he may have come back.

What began as a desperate search through a dark house turned into something far worse. By the time police arrived, four people were dead, and the man they believed was responsible had vanished.
