The Apocalypse Killer: Herbert Mullin 1

Crime House
About this episode

Serial killer Herbert Mullin suffered from the delusion that a terrible disaster was coming -- and the only way to avert it was to sacrifice as many people as he could. During the 1970s, he terrorized the region around Santa Cruz, California, murdering innocent people. But soon, his killing spree turned more personal -- and even more dangerous. Mind of a Serial Killer is a Crime House Original. Follow us on Instagram and TikTok @crimehouse for more true crime content.
