S1.E64 - The House of Horrors, Part One: Funk, Thorn, and the Unforgivable Crimes of the Wests

The Pandemonium team is back with their normally scheduled feralness, bringing you a case so vile, we had to split the horror into two parts just to survive it. This episode is packed with gasps, disgust, and one of the most stomach-turning stories we've ever covered.Join Cat and Rachel as we dive into the nightmarish crimes of Funk and Thorn - better known as Fred and Rose West, the monstrous British couple who terrorized England throughout the 1970s and ‘80s. We’re talking multiple arrests with zero consequences, child abuse, kidnappings, the prostitution of minors, and a level of cruelty that left even our unshakable hosts shaken.Rachel was too stunned to speak.Cat had to emotionally disassociate.Yet somehow, we still managed to talk about it.Content note: This episode contains graphic discussion of child abuse, sexual violence, and extreme violence. Listener discretion is not just advised - it’s mandatory.Links We Used - Fred and Rose West: ⁠https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_West⁠⁠https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rose_West⁠⁠https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-gloucestershire-57182844⁠⁠https://www.gloucestershire.police.uk/SysSiteAssets/media/downloads/force-content/gloucestershire/campaigns/cromwell-street-inquiry-timeline-victim-information-faq⁠⁠https://www.oxygen.com/crime-news/how-serial-killer-couple-fred-and-rosemary-west-were-caught⁠
