In the era of some of the most heinous serial killers of all time, one murderous family went curiously unnoticed: The McCrarys.

@@WonderyMedia in your last episode, you were talking about Leora Looney. She lived with her parents, brothers and sisters, in the house behind my parents and me. She was one of my best friends ..... I'm still in contact with her sister.....

I am surprised that this didn’t get optioned for a film production. It was so well done. I’m proud of the way they honored the victims and their memories. It was done with respect and compassion. My appreciation to Allan for his professionalism and dedication on this series. ❤

The experts explain this family so eloquently!! But short and sweet These people are a different breed simple. We’d all like to believe all humans have some basic humanity somewhere sadly it’s not the case.

They remind me of my neighbor's son. He's not a killer, but has stayed in trouble since he was a kid and now he's in jail again and 43. If he has $20, he has to spend every penny. If you ask him why, he will get a blank look because he can't tell you. He lives in the garage which is full of useless junk that he collects. If he has 10 computer monitors and you have one you don't need, he wants it. His thought processes are just strange. Things are never his fault, he's always the victim. He's had substance abuse issues as long as I know him.
