Travelling is a way of life and a rite of passage for many of us, especially when we are young and carefree, and for most of us, the worst we will experience is running out of money or getting an upset stomach.... but what happens if what you encounter is worse than that? What happens if you what you encounter is pure evil?

Sadly for seven backpackers hitchiking around Australia, this worst case scenario came true when they crossed paths with Ivan Milat, the friendly man with the moustache who offered them a ride.

What happened to these young travellers shocked not only Australia but the world, and shone a light on one of Australia's worst serial killers.

So, grab your drink of choice, get caffeinated and settle in with Belinda as she discusses this true crime story that will leave you shaken.
