Finally, we reach the Killer Clown. John Wayne Gacy murdered at least 33 young, teenaged boys during his reign on terror. As a beloved member of his community, an active member in several community groups and a bonafide clown named Pogo, no one could have known that he was spending most of his time luring, raping and murdering young boys. Part 1 will cover Gacy's life up until his first 2 murders.

I wanted to name this episode "Leigh Whannell" but alas, I went a different path. Tonight in this special bonus episode, we talk about The Invisible Man with the always funny and always beautiful Johnny and Tyler from the That's Spooky podcast! It's quarantine, so why not just do alllll the content!
*******WARNING: Skip to around the 16 minute mark to skip over banter/discussion of RuPaul's Drag Race/Us discovering our drag identities. Your loss but we will understand if you just want to get to the meat of the episode! This was so much fun and we think you guys will love a little fun with the spooky! Enjoy!
