The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast

Alfred Hitchcock's 1954 classic Dial M For Murder is a celebrated work that has been remade for both the big and small screen, and the stage, and which concerns the tale of a cheating wife, a scheming husband, and an elaborate murder plot.In 2007, a court in South Wales was to hear it's very own version, and just how life imitated art...The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events, including descriptions of a sexual nature, that some listeners may find disturbing and or distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening.

There are countless memorials to the brave personnel of the Armed Forces scattered around the UK, but one of these, in Surrey, contains the names of several service personnel whose military service is overshadowed by one thing - the execution each faced for the heinous crimes they committed, not as an act of war, but as a case of murder. This time around, I bring you the tales of two of these. The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events that some listeners may find disturbing and or distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening. There is also a racial slur used within the episode, and it should be stated categorically that the use of this does not reflect the views of myself or the show, it is featured merely because it is relevant to the tale in question.

Concluding the horrifying and tragic story of 10 year old Ursula Herrmann this time around on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, the girl snatched whilst cycling home in Germany in 1981, only to be found 17 days later in the most nightmarish of circumstances. Though it was to take almost 27 years, in 2008 the wheels of justice finally began to turn for Ursula and her family.Except that once they had, the case became perhaps more controversial than it was before - with no one feeling this more strongly than Ursula's family. Concluding a tale you'll never forget. The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events, involving a child, and including a description of animal cruelty, that some listeners may find disturbing and or distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening.Music used in this episode: "The Descent" by Kevin Macleod.

Hitchhiking brings with it countless dangers, as we have seen on screen countless times and with the exploits of killers such as the West's, but for many years it was a commonplace thing to do, the dangers not thought about, merely the destination.In the winter of 1995, one such hitcher, a 19 year old French student named Celine Figard, accepted a ride that she was sadly, never to finish.Her last ride. The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events, involving descriptions of injury detail, that some listeners may find disturbing and or distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening.Music used in this episode: "The Descent" by Kevin Macleod.

All families have squabbles from time to time - it's human nature. But sometimes, a squabble exists only in the mind of one family member, and when they become obsessed that they are right, wild horses cannot change their mind - sometimes, it borders on paranoia.The tale this time around on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, a horrific tale from Manchester back in 2016, shows just what horrific consequenses paranoia can bring. The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events, involving  descriptions of injury detail, that some listeners may find disturbing and or distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening.Music used in this episode: "The Descent" by Kevin Macleod.
