Episode 12: The Twilight Zone And Yet Another Unsympathetic Character
Crow and Fern's Guide to Weird Fiction, Folklore, Mythology, and Everything in Between - A podcast by Dr. Crow and Ms. Fern
You are about to enter another dimension. A dimension of serial kill glorification, bad marriages, and *drum roll, please* another unsympathetic character! Thought Crow was done talking about characters we so love to hate? Think again! In today's episode, she takes us back to the past, to a wax museum exhibit crafted by Jerry Sohl and Charles Beaumont. We borrow the eyes of Martin Lombard Senescu, the curator of the Murderers Row in Ferguson's Wax Museum. Martin introduces his to his bestest buddies of all time Albert W. Hicks, Burke and Hare, Henri Desire Landru, and everyone's favorite serial killer bud--Jack the Ripper. "To murder," He says "To take a life with your hands again and again and not be able to stop oneself--can you begin to imagine the horror of that?". Well, Martin, why imagine when you can have yourself a go at the real thing?
