Summary
For ten years, Once Upon a Crime has explored some of the world’s most haunting true crime stories. Uncovering secrets, examining criminal investigations, and telling the stories of victims, survivors, investigators, and killers whose lives were forever changed by crime. But now, for the first time, host Esther Ludlow is ready to tell her own story. In this deeply personal teaser for Season 11, Esther reveals that her fascination with true crime began with an experience that profoundly shaped how she sees justice, trauma, and the ripple effects crime leaves behind. After a decade of telling other people’s stories, she’s finally ready to share the one story she’s never fully told before. Season Eleven of Once Upon a Crime marks a dramatic new chapter for the podcast. One that promises new storytelling, deeper personal connections, and a journey unlike anything listeners have heard before. Everything is about to change.
