WARNING: THIS EPISODE IS NOT FOR EVERYONE. THIS IS A SERIOUS MESSAGE- LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE WITH CAUTION. We go into GRAPHIC detail in this episode and it really is disturbing.In the early 1900's, a mysterious killer stalked the streets of New York City. He was given many nicknames by the press, "The Boogeyman", "The Werewolf of Wisteria", "The Brooklyn Vampire"... but even these names do not describe accurately how horrific the crimes of Albert Fish were.
