About this episode
Alaina brings us the tale of Holly K Dunn who survived a brutal attack at the hands of an evil, deranged man. Holly’s survival tale is incredibly inspiring but also heartbreaking because through it she lost an amazing boyfriend, Chris Maier. Chris Maier and Holly had recently begun dating and were just enjoying an evening stroll by a set of railroad tracks when a man came out of the dark in front of them and attacked them. What Holly didn’t find out for two years was that this man was one of the most notorious serial killers.
