The Murders...Explained




WHO ARE OUR VICTIMS?
​
TORI:
Tori has the optimism of someone who’s never opened a history book. If you hang around long enough, she’ll try to convince you that breathing deeply will solve all your problems.
MURDER:
Tori ​was found dead in her kitchen with her hand severed from her body. Three of her kitchen knives were bloody, laying beside her.
​
GEENA:
Geena has only failed PE two times, but has been concussed four. The insurance company loves her pockets and her wobbly knees.
MURDER:
Geena was found laying life-less under her high school's bleachers with a pack of Marlborough Golds in one hand, and a garrote around her neck.
​
APRIL:
Do you suffer from anxiety, or migraines? You may need a lobotomy. April claims "the needle didn't even hurt" – get your 'painless' lobotomy today!
MURDER:
April was murdered in her bed with a pair of nail scissors embedded between her eyebrows.
​
PENNY:
If the law of detachment was a human-being, it would be Penny – she'll produce the perfect hallucination, then run your heart (and pockets) dry.
MURDER:
Stuffed between two soiled mattresses laid Penny, dead in an empty motel room. Found on her body were fatal burn marks that resemble a taser, or the ends of a toy train track.
​
ELSBETH:
Elsbeth pirouettes with grace, but if you hear the click of her pointe shoes, it’s already too late—she’s choreographed your downfall.
MURDER:
With the ghost light on, Elsbeth was found center stage, lifeless and alone, surrounded by used bullets. ​
​
WESTON:
Weston's voice sounds like she gargles gravel for breakfast, and the only thing louder than her belt notes is her love for self-sabotage.
MURDER:
Weston was murdered by intoxication of a bottle of vodka filled with arsenic. She was found sunken in a manhole in St. Louis, MO.

​
MURDER FINDINGS:
​- All of the murders occurred within a 100 mile radius to LaRue Swamp in Wolf Lake, IL.
​
- Each victim was coincidently traced back to visiting LaRue Swamp within the month before their individual murders.
- None of the murders were executed with the same technique...
​
- All of the murders were lazily disguised as possible self-induced killings, or accidents
​
- There was no suspect DNA found at any of the scenes implying that the murderer was wearing gloves.
​
- Each murder was in a location that the victims spent a lot of time at; the murderer had to have been watching, and analyzing each victim's daily routines. ​
