About this episode
It's here. Alaina has been both anticipating and dreading this day since Morbid's conception. We all have those cases that have haunted us since we first read them, and this is one of those rare nightmares that will stay with you long after you hear it.
Today Alaina covers Part 1 of The Moors Murders. Tonight, we talk about Ian Brady and Myra Hindley's lives before they met each other, we look into their fateful meeting and their toxic relationship and we hate on them, hard. Part 2 and Part 3 will follow in succession. This case is a doozy.
