S2E8: Watch it Burn

In the 8th episode of Season 2 of True Crime Horror Story, your host JD Horror brings you tales about killers who had a love for fire.

Case #1: Thanks for the Ride, Lady - Joe Elton Nixon had a rough start in life. From an early age, he had a fascination with fire. This obsession would lead to an unspeakable act targeting one of the only people to ever show him kindness in his unfortunate existence (J. Nixon, Tallahassee, Florida) Research - Lana McCall, Writing - JD

Case #2: Gone in Flames - On Christmas Ever of 1945, the Sodder family home burned to the ground. However, no human remains were found at the scene. So where did the Sodder Children go? (The Sodder Children Disappearance, Fayetteville, WY) Research - Lana McCall, Writing - JD

Case #3: Inferno - The Upstairs Lounge was a safe haven for the gay community of New Orleans during the 1970's, where bigotry and hatred were abundant. However, the perpetrator of the worst case of deadly arson in Louisiana history was an unlikely suspect. (The Upstairs Lounge Fire, New Orleans, Louisiana) Research - Jessica Shannon, Writing - JD
