An Eye for a Killing

Barker Barracks was closed down in 2019, but I looked online after Alex contacted me and found an army chat forum full of stories from soldiers who had served there. Tales of strange noises, figures appearing in bedrooms and even exorcisms. One comment said that when it rained, old German graffiti would become visible on the Barracks. It translated as, the walls have gears. This is a new five-part drama from Radio 4 called An Eye for a Killing. The true story of Scotland's most notorious serial killers, Burke and Hare. They didn't dig up a single body - they simply murdered for cash.
