Florida State University witnessed the unspeakable crimes of Ted Bundy in 1978. Just 12 years later, the University of Florida would mourn the loss of five students at the hands of its very own serial killer - the Gainesville Ripper. This week, we'll travel back to Elise's Alma Mater and discover the lasting impact such tragedy had on her college town. Sonja Larson, Christina Powell, Christa Hoyt, Tracy Paules and Manny Taboada were savagely murdered in their apartments during the summer of 1990 over the course of three days. The killer's identity would take months to discover, but a string of crimes would lead detectives to their man. Tune in to learn what a group of horses is called (hint: it's not a gaggle) and enjoy the soothing sounds of a crying baby as the coven's newest listener gives her opinion on this sordid tale. Spoiler alert : she doesn't like it. Happy Haunting!
