S1 Ep15: Jeffrey Dahmer, the Milwaukee Cannibal
Helen Anderson and Danni Howard travel back to 1990s America to learn about the horrific and infamous Milwaukee Cannibal, Jeffrey Dahmer. After his childhood obsession with animals took a very dark turn, Jeffrey channeled his love of gore and need for control to whole new levels in his one bedroom apartment on North 25th Street in Milwaukee. Expect serious grisly discoveries, a macabre shrine to his victims, and the kind of crimes you would only expect to hear in an actual horror movie.
Devils in The Dark contains graphic details of sexual assault, torture, and violence, including violence against animals, and is not intended for all audiences. Listener discretion is strongly advised.
