In this episode a give you a free preview of some of the bonus Creeptastic content waiting for you at Patreon.com/Creeptastic! Today’s featured creep is Amelia Dyer, who was executed after being convicted of three counts of murder - and her victims were all under the age of two.  She was not just a killer, but a baby-killer; a predator of the worst kind who preyed on the most vulnerable possible victims she could find.  And unfortunately for countless mothers and their children, she lived in a time and place that allowed her sadism and greed to run rampant for over thirty years, with some historians and investigators estimating that her true death toll might be as high as 400.  How in hell could that be possible?  Because she happened to live in Victorian England, when the perfect storm of social conditions combined to enable women like Amelia Dyer to not only murder children, but to profit from it. Journey with me into the dark side of an age marked by high morals and hypocrisy in this episode of Creeptastic!
