This week Deklan tells us about a brutal serial killer, John Haigh. He was motivated by greed and completed some petty crimes that landed him in jail for a few years before he committed his first murder. He disposed of his victims in a horrific manner, submerging them in barrels full of sulphuric acid. His true victim count is not known, He was convicted of 6 and he confessed to 3 more.

Jane tells us about two WW1 prisoners of war, EH Jones and CW Hill, who used a handmade Ouija board to fool their captors. Jones and Hill convinced everyone that they could speak with spirits of the dead who would lead them to buried treasure. When the plan fell apart they convinced the jailers that they were insane from speaking with the dead. It eventually led to their release.

We also enjoy the Escape from Alcatraz cocktail.
