In this episode, we examine the chilling story of the Bloody Benders, America’s infamous serial killer family. Set in 1870s Kansas, we recount the Bender family’s arrival in Labette County and the dark secrets concealed behind their seemingly ordinary inn on the Osage Trail. We explore the family’s unsettling behavior, the growing rumors about disappearances along the trail, and how the mysterious vanishing of Dr. William H. York became the key to exposing a horrifying truth. Join us as we reveal the eerie setup of the Benders’ inn and the wave of fear that pushed a community to seek justice.
