179. [Georgia] The Killings at Corpsewood Manor

About this episode

The episode explores the infamous killings at Corpsewood Manor in Georgia, involving Dr. Charles Scudder and Joseph Odom.

In the late 1970's, Dr. Charles Scudder and his partner, Joseph Odom, moved to the remote Georgia woods to build their dream home. It would be a castle type home with no electricity and no running water, they would decorate it with all things satanic. Included on the property was the notorious "Pink Room", a pleasure chamber for the couple and their guests. But one evening, a trusted friend would turn on the couple and the night would become one of legend and lore for years to come in Georgia.
