The Tales We Tell

Ep. 172: The Gilgo Beach Murders

If you’ve been watching/reading the news, you’ve heard of the Gilgo Beach murders, and the decade long search for the killer. This week, Hannah tells Katy the whole story before catching her up on the latest developments. There’s a lot to cover, from the missing woman that started it all (Shannon Gilbert), to the families of the Gilgo Bach Four, to the still unidentified remains discovered along the beach. Check out the podcast LISK: Long Island Serial Killer for a waaaaaaaay more detailed dive.

But in the meantime, pour the drinks, cut a piece of cake (it’s birthday cake time over here!) and join us for this (soon to be solved?) unsolved mystery.
