Homocidal Tendency: A Queer True Crime Podcast
Welcome to Homocidal Tendency, a podcast dedicated to the grit, the gore, and the forgotten ghosts of queer history.
We bridge the gap between the visceral horror of serial murder and the cold reality of life on the streets.
Whether it's a high-profile manhunt for a community predator or a quiet, back-alley tragedy that never made the nightly news, we’re digging up the truth that’s been buried under decades of apathy.
