42 | Penny Dreadfuls: 3 True Crime Cases

Prash's Murder Map: True Crime Podcast

In this episode, I’m bringing you a collection of short but grisly cases from the 1800s, which on their own would be too short for an episode, but they’re too intriguing not to share so I’ve put three of them together. Let’s go back in time for a whistle-stop tour of three crimes ranging from the brutal to the mysterious. If you’re looking for murders involving deceptions, an unscrupulous businessman who exterminated an entire family, an execution by guillotine, a strange letter, the death of a living scarecrow and more, this ‘Penny Dreadfuls’ episode has you covered with these bitesize blood-soaked crimes.
