In this episode, we dive into the disturbing story of Earle Leonard Nelson, infamously known as The Gorilla Killer. Operating during the 1920s, Nelson left a trail of terror across the United States and Canada, committing at least 22 murders—primarily targeting landladies through boarding house ads. We explore his troubled early life, the psychological factors that may have shaped his violent impulses, the gruesome nature of his crimes, and how his trail eventually led to one of the first cross-border serial killer manhunts in North American history.
