Description

Friendly neighbor. Serial killer. Welcome to the Houston Mass Murders.

Meet Dean Corll — the "Candy Man" of Houston, whose friendly smile hid one of the most disturbing crime sprees in U.S. history. With teenage accomplices Elmer Wayne Henley and David Brooks, Corll lured neighborhood boys to their deaths, burying dozens in boat sheds, lakes, and beaches.

This episode dives into the shocking murders, the night Henley turned on Corll, and the investigation that uncovered the Houston Mass Murders — a case so horrifying it changed the way America thought about serial killers forever.
