**We’re on a break this week, so we thought we’d pick out a few of our personal favorite episodes. Here’s Kara’s favorite full episode, The Acid Bath Murders, originally published on July 23, 2021.**

John Haigh was raised in a super restrictive religious cult setting. He wasn’t allowed to have friends, could only read bible stories for entertainment, and believed that if he sinned, a blue mark would appear on his forehead. If you think this turned him into a deranged murderer, well, you’re correct.
