About this episode

On this episode of They Walk Among America… In the 1970s, psychologist John Alan Lee created the color wheel theory of love. It is a love classification system based on Greek and Latin concepts. One of the three primary types is mania. This refers to a type of love that can turn “manic” or “obsessive”. This obsessive love can often involve a relationship that does not actually exist, a relationship that somebody has constructed in their mind. But what happens when this obsessive love turns deadly?…
