The Grandma Serial Killer
Have you ever wondered about the hidden stories behind seemingly ordinary houses? The kind you pass by every day without giving a second thought, until you learn what secrets they hold. In the latest episode of *The Mikey Podcast*, we’re about to take you on a bone-chilling journey into a world that’s as fascinating as it is horrifying.
Picture this: a cozy boarding house in the heart of Sacramento during the 1980s. It sounds inviting, almost like a scene from a charming period piece. But behind the quaint exterior of this seemingly welcoming establishment lies a spine-tingling tale of terror.
Dorothea Helen Puente was the mastermind behind this “special” boarding house. You may be accustomed to hosts who greet you with a smile and freshly baked cookies, but Dorothea had her unique brand of hospitality. She would accept vulnerable elderly and mentally disabled tenants. However, her idea of making them feel at home was a lot more sinister than you can imagine.
Not everyone who stayed at Dorothea’s boarding house left with their lives intact. Those who dared to question her practices soon vanished without a trace. Imagine cashing Social Security checks belonging to the tenants while they mysteriously disappeared, never to be seen again. A sinister twist on the “home away from home” concept, wouldn’t you say?
