Homocidal Tendency: A True Crime Podcast
Welcome to Homocidal Tendency, a podcast dedicated to the grit, the gore, and the forgotten ghosts of queer history.
We bridge the gap between the visceral horror of serial murder and the cold reality of life on the streets.
Whether it's a high-profile manhunt for a community predator or a quiet, back-alley tragedy that never made the nightly news, we’re digging up the truth that’s been buried under decades of apathy.

Part 2
He was the most popular Santa in the city. Parents stood in line for hours just so their children could sit on his lap. But while Bruce McArthur was checking his 'Naughty or Nice' list, he was hiding a graveyard in the gardens of Toronto’s elite.
How does a man hide eight murders in plain sight for nearly a decade? The answer isn't found in the shadows, but in the most trusted places imaginable: a festive mall throne and a blooming flower planter.
In this episode, we deconstruct the terrifying double life of Bruce McArthur—the "grandfatherly" landscaper who weaponized his own kindness to become Canada’s most prolific serial killer. We’re peeling back the "Santa" mask to reveal a predator who calculated that the world wouldn't look for a killer who looked like Saint Nick.
