The podcast delves into the origins of serial murder in the western mind, exploring the life of Giles De Rais, a hero and perhaps the most cruel of all serial killers. It also discusses Peter Stubbe, the 'werewolf of bedburg'. The chapters touch on the comparison between werewolves and vampires as archetypes for serial killers, the dark psychology of serial killers, the rise of werewolf cases, disturbing crimes of Gilles de Rais, accounts of the werewolf's capture, and the tale of Guernier involving witchcraft and cannibalism.
