Alone in the Woods | Gary Hilton

About this episode

The episode explores the crimes of Gary Hilton, known as The National Forest Serial Killer, who operated in the early to mid-2000s.

Gary Hilton, AKA The National Forest Serial Killer was a man who stalked the national forests in the Carolina's and Florida in the early - mid 2000's. He was convicted of killing four people, however the number is suspected to higher as he was caught in his 60's. It's very unlikely that somebody like him started killing so late in life, and given the nature of his crimes, and the location of his hunting grounds, it would be very difficult to determine his exact kill count.
