Murder Coaster

Gary Heidnik, the inspiration behind Buffalo Bill in The Silence of the Lambs, was many things. The bishop of his own church. A savvy financial investor with a genius level IQ.  A cannibal and cult leader trying to create his own perfect race of humans, as well as a murderer and serial rapist and registered nurse. Strap in and prepare for a rough ride, listener discretion advised.   MURDER COASTER PODCAST Hosted by Christa Carmen and Matthew Brockmeyer Website: www.murdercoasterpodcast.com Facebook: Murder Coaster Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/murdercoasterpodcast/   Creepy Amusement Park theme by Brandon Fiechter and Derek Fiechter, used by permission and with many thanks.   FEATURING THE SONGS: “My Soul” by Mack Aroni courtesy of the Free Music Archive Deed - Attribution 4.0 International - Creative Commons   “Painless” and “Cry” by Sapio courtesy of the Free Music Archive.

Welcome back to part two of the story of Ed Gein the Mad Butcher of Plainfield. Last week we discussed the troubled relationship of Eddie’s parents George and Augusta, how his father died a drunken invalid, then the mysterious death of his brother, followed by the tragic death of his beloved mother Augusta, and how loneliness, grief and despair led him to begin exhuming bodies from their graves in search of a maternal presence. Buckle up, because today’s episode is going to be wild!   MURDER COASTER PODCAST Hosted by Christa Carmen and Matthew Brockmeyer Website: www.murdercoasterpodcast.com Facebook: Murder Coaster Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/murdercoasterpodcast/   Creepy Amusement Park theme by Brandon Fiechter and Derek Fiechter, used by permission and with many thanks.   References: Deviant: The Shocking True Story of Ed Gein, The Original "Psycho" by Harold Schechter. ‎Gallery Books‎ April 1, 2025.

There are realms of the internet so disturbing they defy comprehension, places literally dedicated to evil, that wish to accelerate the demise of humanity, and most disturbingly, they are often run by bored teenagers. Places like 764, which was created by a fifteen-year-old, high-school drop-out named Bradley Chance Cadenhead, a network so vile and horrendous that the FBI said it was one of the most disturbing things they’d ever seen and the Department of Justice classified it as a terrorist network. And violent theistic groups like Order of Nine Angles, Temple ov Blood and the Satanic Front, as well as accelerationist groups like the Maniacs Murder Cult, Sadistic Maniacs Cult, and No Lives Matter. If you are a parent, educator or guardian, we ask you to please listen to the following episode, for, although it is disturbing, it involves crimes going on right now, at this exact moment, both perpetrated by and targeting, children.   If you or someone you know is struggling, you are not alone. You can call or text 988 or use the webchat at 988lifeline.org to connect with the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline — available 24/7, free, and confidential.

Welcome back to our third and final episode on Ed and Lorraine Warren: demonologists, ghost hunters and freakshow carnival hucksters. Today we take a hard look at the many scandals that have rocked the Warren family, from the allegations of sexual abuse on a minor to fraud, and the troubling lineage which saw grandson Chris McKinnell, groomed by Ed from youth to be a paranormal investigator and exorcist, be usurped in favor of his stepfather Tony Spera and the very public estrangement that followed. We also delve into the modern fate of the Warren’s Occult Museum and home, the Devils on the Run tour featuring the real Annabelle Doll, and the bizarre death of Dan Rivera, as well as taking a look at the new owners, comedian Matt Rife and Elton Castee, who are currently renting the home and museum out for nightly stays. It is an epic, sometimes very disturbing, and truly American story, too wild to believe yet too crazy for fiction!!   MURDER COASTER PODCAST Hosted by Christa Carmen and Matthew Brockmeyer Website: www.murdercoasterpodcast.com Facebook: Murder Coaster Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/murdercoasterpodcast/   Creepy Amusement Park theme by Brandon Fiechter and Derek Fiechter, used by permission and with many thanks.   FEATURING THE SONGS: “The Werewolf Rock” and “Electric Girlfriend” by The Zombie Dandies courtesy of the Free Music Archive.
