Episode 72 - Loren Herzog & Wesley Shermantine

This week, Manda takes us deep into one of California’s most horrifying true-crime cases — the story of Loren Herzog and Wesley Shermantine, infamously known as the Speed Freak Killers. These two childhood friends turned partners-in-crime left behind a legacy of fear, violence, and unanswered questions that still haunt communities to this day. From their troubled upbringings to their twisted bond and the trail of victims tied to their rampage, Manda unpacks the dark history of their crimes, the shocking discoveries that followed, and how justice eventually caught up with them. ⚠️ Trigger Warning: This episode includes discussions of murder, sexual assault, and graphic violence. Please listen with care. And with this case, we’re wrapping up our time in California. Next week, we’ll be packing our bags and heading into the Rockies as we begin our deep dive into Colorado’s spine-chilling stories.For episodes like this and more check out our website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠www.spine-chillingchatspodcast.com⁠⁠⁠⁠If you have a paranormal experience, glitch in the matrix, alien abduction or late-night sexual encounter with the fae please send them in to us!
