Albert Fish - The Boogeyman

Send us a text

Season 1, Episode 11 – Deadly Intent

This episode examines Albert Fish, a serial killer whose intent went beyond murder—he weaponized his victims' suffering through calculated psychological torture, sending horrific confession letters to families and fundamentally changing how America thinks about child safety and stranger danger. Through the lens of criminal intent, host Carman Carrion explores how Fish's systematic psychological warfare extended across decades and generations, why he needed the world to know exactly what he was capable of, and what his case reveals about the nature of evil itself. The episode also examines modern child safety research, debunking the "stranger danger" myth Fish helped create, and offers evidence-based guidance for protecting children without teaching them to fear the world.

Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of violence against children, psychological torture, and disturbing criminal behavior. Listener discretion is advised.
