Crisp air, shorter days, Halloween around the corner… indeed, there’s no better time to curl up with a gripping true crime podcast than during the fall. Here are three great options to add to your fall listening list. We promise they’re just as gripping as a good Netflix binge.
Criminal
Hosted by Phoebe Judge, Criminal takes a unique approach to true crime storytelling. Rather than focusing solely on gory details, this podcast explores the human element behind crimes. It delves into stories of people who’ve done wrong, been wronged, or found themselves caught in the middle.
In The Dark
If you’re looking for in-depth investigative journalism, In The Dark is a must-listen. Hosted by Madeleine Baran, this award-winning podcast has tackled some of the most complex and controversial cases in recent history. Its first season investigated the mysterious abduction of Jacob Wetterling, while the second examined the case of Curtis Flowers, who was tried six times for the same crime. A thought-provoking listening experience.

For those who prefer their true crime straight and unembellished, Casefile True Crime delivers. This podcast prides itself on presenting facts in a clear, concise manner, allowing the often chilling details of each case to speak for themselves.
