True Crime October

There are many haunting stories of murder, organized crime, and the unexplainable available across various platforms that have become popular among a wide range of listeners and readers. True crime may not be a scary story of vampires and werewolves, but it can be just as intense as any ghost story. October is a month full of the supernatural and horrifying that draws more and more people to listen to true crime stories that end with a twist or gratifying conclusion. Students and staff in each of the libraries on campus were asked what their favorite true crime podcasts were, and the UMU True Crime playlist was created on Spotify. Below you will see a code for the playlist that you can scan with your own Spotify account and listen to at any time but be warned some of the material can be explicit and most certainly terrifying. 

There are also a large number of true crime related books located on display in the UMU Library near the DWOC color copier, feel free to check them out during the month of October!
