Welcome to the 26th episode of Wild Society!

In this weeks murder case we discuss the infamous serial killer, Rodney Alcala. Nicknamed the “Dating Game Killer,” because of his time on the show, Rodney Alcala scoured the country hunting young women. Alcala used his unique charm to convince them he was a photographer and ultimately tortured, raped, strangled, and killed them. He was convicted of 8 murders but is believed to have killed many more. Officials are still trying to find information on possible victims today through photographs found in Alcala’s possession.
In 1920 a series of photos captured the attention of the world. The photos, taken by two young girls, Frances Griffith and Elsie Wright, were taken while playing in the garden of Elsie’s Cottingley village home in West Yorkshire. The subject of these photos baffled everyone from photographic experts to spiritualists and became the most widely recognized photos in the world.
