Ep 13 - Black Magic & The Philadelphia Poison Ring

We're heading to Depression-era Philadelphia to expose the terrible deeds and mystical dealings of The Philadelphia Poison Ring, a murderous gang responsible for at least 30 deaths in the 1930s. What black magic did these criminals weave, why did they love sandbags so much and did they prove that love really is the greatest poison of them all?

This week's secret ingredient was....LOVE of course!

We also have a promo from the gorgeous team at Old Timey Crimey.

This week's sources were many and include Though Catalog (article by Jim Goad), Murderpedia (including pieces by David Lohr via TrueTV and Michael Newton's An Encyclopedia of Modern Serial Killers) and Wiki.
