This was a short but interesting story about a serial killer I was not aware of.

Good quick read
I am so into this Bloodlands collection. I was not even sure who this Pied Piper was, but then realized who it was about. I had seen some parts of an old cheesy movie years ago, and quickly realized by the beer cans in the boots, it was also based on this same character. For some reason, I am interested in real life murder stories lately. I cannot wait to read the rest of the stories in this series.

Intriguing true story I'd never heard before; however, the audiobook was rather dry and had a few mispronunciations that drew my attention away from the story (i.e. "adorably" instead of "adoringly").

Pied Piper – 1950’s killer. This story didn’t have an enormous amount of background info but just was interesting in the peculiarities of the murder and his garish obsession with his appearance/make-up.
Bloodlands collection – 6 books The Pirate, Little Slaughterhouse on the Prairie, Brick Slayer, Panic, Pied Piper, Rampage
Crime stories, whether in movies, TV or books always reflect the morality and mortality of humans – as cautionary tales to warn us…me especially. The bigger the human flaws or outsized characters; the villain(s) or defenseless victim(s), the press (broadsheet & tabloid), psychiatrists, police, and/or lawyers the more I gawk...
Note: all the ebooks were tricked out with Kindle in motion special effects. Bumped up the ante to the sensationalism...can’t tell if that’s a shot at the press or not…

Fall 2018:
This was part of a historical horror series released by Amazon for checkout on special. I ended up listening through all of them, and being both fascinated and horrified by the things within. The questions that are left, and the points about how certain authors and certain novels headtip to these things was quite interesting.

Um texto muito difícil de ler, mas sem dúvida bastante interessante. Pode um psicopata ser um poeta, ou um poeta ser psicopata? Como é não ficção, que sempre supera a ficção em muitos aspectos, fiquei meio angustiada ao final da leitura. Sempre cabe a pergunta: onde reside nossa humanidade? Ou isso é apenas uma ilusão, e somos todos seres lobos maus disfarçados de ovelhas? Fica a reflexão.
