A Childhood Coma Birthed A Devout Serial Killer

In the 1920s, one man proved that the most dangerous monsters are the ones you invite into your home. Meet Earle Nelson, the Bible-toting drifter known as the "Gorilla Killer." To his victims, he was a polite, religious man looking for a room for rent. To the police, he was a ghost who left a trail of over 22 bodies across the United States and Canada. How did a "preacher" commit some of the most brutal crimes in history? Today, we’re looking at the terrifying true story of the Gorilla Killer, the first modern serial killer to trigger an international manhunt. From his bizarre brain injury to his final walk to the gallows, this is a deep dive into the mind of a predator who hid behind a Bible. 00:00 - The San Francisco Boarding House Murder 03:02 - The Making of Earle Nelson 04:02 - The Accident 09:07 - The "Room for Rent" Signature Emerges 11:43 - The Dark Strangler 18:41 - A Cross-Country Tour of Terror 22:30 - The Fingerprint Breakthrough 27:05 - Crossing the Border: The Winnipeg Tragedy 33:46 - The Great Escape and Final Capture 39:53 - Trial and Execution Narrated by: Josh Risser 🔔 Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE! 🔔 SUGGEST A TOPIC: https://bit.ly/suggest-an-infographic... 💬 Come chat with me:   / discord   🔖 MY SOCIAL PAGES TikTok ►   / theinfographicsshow   Facebook ►   / theinfographicsshow   📝 SOURCES: https://pastebin.com/hmYDPJGa All videos are based on publicly available information unless otherwise noted.
