Three infamous killers. Two decades of terror. One dark journey through Hollywood's deadliest crimes. From Wondery, the makers of the acclaimed Hollywood & Crime podcast series comes a chilling descent into the cases that shattered Los Angeles from 1969 to 1981.

Journey deep into Charles Manson's early years to learn how a troubled boy became the charismatic cult leader behind one of America's most infamous killing sprees. Then follow the disturbing saga of Rodney Alcala, who charmed his way onto a popular dating show while hiding his brutal secret life as a serial killer. Finally, step into the drug-fueled underworld of early 80s Los Angeles with the Wonderland Murders, where adult film legend John Holmes became entangled in a bloody massacre that rocked Laurel Canyon.

Based on extensive research, including police records and court transcripts, Hollywood & Crime: LA's Most Notorious Killers presents an unflinching look at these haunting crimes. For the first time ever, these three infamous stories are available together in a single audio collection—perfect for true crime aficionados and Hollywood history buffs alike. Please note: This collection includes content that has been released in the podcast series.
