  • Ep 42 - The Kindly Killer, Dennis Nilsen PT II (Half-Caf!)
    Sep 24 2024
    Welcome back, Spooky Squad, to Scream and Sugar, your true crime coffee hour. In today's episode, we are covering the first part of The UK's most prolific serial killer, Dennis Nilsen.

    Few serial killers in British history have left a legacy as chilling as Dennis Nilsen, a man whose calm demeanor hid the unspeakable horrors lurking beneath. Dubbed the ‘Muswell Hill Murderer,’ or the 'Kindly Killer', Nilsen preyed on young men in London during the late 1970s and early 1980s, luring them to his flat where he brutally killed them, often without any apparent motive beyond his own twisted desires. He would then engage in the eerie ritual of bathing and posing their bodies, as if prolonging his control over them even after death.
    His capture in 1983, after human remains clogged his drains. Hang with us as we sip on some caffeine from our local Starbucks and dive into this shocking and tragic tale of murder.

    And remember to stay spooky!

  • Ep 40 - Sea of Grief - Story of a Sea Orphan
    Sep 11 2024
    Welcome back to another episode of Scream and Sugar, your true crime coffee hour. Hang with us today as Candace takes us through the incredible story of the Bluebelle ship.
    In November 1961, the Bluebelle, a chartered vacation yacht, set sail from Florida for a holiday voyage, carrying Captain Julian Harvey, his wife Mary Dene, and the Duperrault family who hired him. Tragedy struck when the vessel mysteriously sank in the middle of the Caribbean. Julian Harvey was found days later, claiming that a sudden storm had destroyed the yacht and drowned everyone else. However, suspicion grew as his version of events seemed inconsistent with the conditions reported at sea.
    The real twist came when 11-year-old Terry Jo Duperrault, thought to be among the victims, was discovered floating alone on a cork raft after four days adrift. Terry Jo's survival story contradicted Harvey’s claims, revealing a chilling truth. Terry Jo’s miraculous survival unraveled one of the most shocking crimes at sea, leaving the world stunned by the lengths Harvey went to conceal his crimes.
    Today's episode sends all its love to Tahoe Lake's favorite, Heidi's Restaurant!
    Remember to stay spooky, ya'll!
