Harvey Glatman, one of America’s earliest known serial killers and sadomasochists, was as calculated and twisted as he was intelligent. Under the pretense of being a professional photographer, he placed ads seeking pinup models for so-called “crime scene reenactments”—photoshoots he claimed were for detective magazines, a popular genre at the time.

This elaborate ruse allowed Glatman to lure unsuspecting women straight into his trap, where he indulged his perverse obsession with control and dominance. Once isolated, he would bind, assault, and ultimately murder his victims, capturing their terror on film before disposing of their bodies. His chilling method—blending deception, manipulation, and sadism—would later make him a blueprint for future serial killers, demonstrating just how terrifyingly effective charm and calculated deceit could be.

Disturbing topics of sexual assault, murder, and suicide are discussed – please listen with caution.
