85 Peter Kurten: The Vampire of Dusseldorf Part One
Merry Thanksgiving, everyone! We decided to to release this one a little early!
Yeah, we wet there with this guy. Peter Kurten is one of the worst.
Todd is taking some time off, so filling in for him is Matthew Brockmeyer of Murder Coaster, which is a great podcast. Plus, Bill has a nasty cold, but he powers through it.
Peter Kurten was born in 1883, the oldest of 13 kids in a 1 bedroom apartment, with a super abusive prick for a father. He would force his kids to watch him abuse and rape their mother, then he began abusing the kids, especially Peter.
Peter killed 2 of his classmates, and was taken in by a creepy dog catcher who molested him, and taught him how to torture animal
His father then escalated to raping Peter's younger sister. His mom caught him in the act, and he was arrested. Peter picked up where his father left off, also raping his sister. His mother caught him, and he bolted.
He began breaking and entering, and raping women, but was caught. He wound up joining the army but deserted. He then began killing women, and would do prison time again.
After that, he went back to his sister, who reluctantly took him because her husband insisted. He then met a woman with a checkered past that he could relate to, and they were then married.
Part 2 gets really brutal.
