#44. Sons of Cain Part 1: ‘Serial Killing: From the Cave to Whitechapel’ w/ Dr. Peter Vronsky (Dive Bar) - a podcast by Lee Mellor

Proposing our primitive ancestors were genocidal rapists and cannibals, Dr. Vronsky draws parallels with the story of Cain and Abel, and discusses the surge in serial killings from 1450-1650 related to institutional witchhunts and werewolf trials. We end with a look at the 19th-century trend of murdering multiple servant girls and prostitutes in Europe and the USA.

He is an investigative historian, author, filmmaker and new media designer. His new book, Sons of Cain is available anywhere you buy books!
