S1.E74 - The Killer Nurse Who Turned a Retirement Home into a Morgue: The Amy Archer-Gilligan Case

The Pandemonium team is back, and this time, we’re talking about one of history’s OG black widows - a sweet little lady who loved taking care of the elderly… right up until they mysteriously dropped dead. Amy Archer-Gilligan ran a cozy little "rest home" in Connecticut, where the elderly could live out their golden years in peace. The only problem? They didn’t last long. With an alarming number of residents dying suspiciously fast (and right after signing over their life savings), people started asking questions - like why Amy was buying arsenic by the bucket.Join Rachel, Cat, and Em as they dive into this twisted tale of poison, greed, and one seriously shady business model. Did Amy love money more than morals?How did she manage to keep the bodies piling up for years without getting caught?How did her crimes inspire one of Broadway’s most famous dark comedies? Warning: If you have a grandma who loves baking and mysteriously mentions life insurance, you may want to double-check that tea she just poured you.
