The Wednesday Strangler

May 27, 2026 · 32 min

Show notes

In previous episodes, we have explored cases in which alleged serial killers were never identified, nor convicted of the horrific crimes they were believed to have committed. The same would prove true in the case of a modern-day murderer thought to have been responsible for the deaths of at least seven female victims in rural Japan. A killer whose disturbing and highly distinctive methods would ultimately earn him the chilling nickname, ‘The Wednesday Strangler’.
