The Poughkeepsie Tapes Isn't What You Think—It's a Serial Killer's Trophy

The Poughkeepsie Tapes isn't a mockumentary. It's a confession. This theory has been floating around horror circles for years, but nobody's laid out the full case — until now. The evidence is hiding in plain sight: impossible access to the killer's private tapes, a victim interview that feels like a continuation of her captivity, a filmmaker who literally doesn't exist, and a voice match that's too close to be a coincidence. If this theory holds, The Poughkeepsie Tapes stops being a found-footage horror movie and becomes the highlight reel of a serial killer who got away with everything.
