TTCEP Birthday Bonus - Devil In The Doll...

Always True Crime
About this episode
As voted for by members of the show's FB Discussion group, here is the Patreon episode available for all as it's the shows 3rd birthday. Thank you so much to every single one of you for making it happen - what a ride it's been, here's to many more - plenty more tales to come from the Enthusiast yet. 

So the voted for episode, Devil In The Doll's House, is one of the Bonus Patreon episodes that I released just back at the end of July this year. It features a truly horrendous case back from the 1980's, in the town of Morecambe - a case where we learn just how close to home evil can really lurk. 

The Bonus episode contains descriptions of crimes and events, including crimes against a child and descriptions of a sexual nature, that some listeners may find disturbing or upsetting, so discretion is advised whilst listening.
