Hulu is rolling out two true crime docuseries in the next few weeks, and one of the series involves one of the most prolific serial killers in the United States: Theodore Robert Bundy. There have been many movies and documentaries made about Ted Bundy, but this one is a bit different.
Ted Bundy: Dialogue with the Devil takes us back to 1984, when Ted Bundy had already been behind bars for six years. Investigator Robert Keppel was one of the people assigned to the Green River Task Force, a group of investigators who were hard at work trying to identify the Green River Killer.
As part of their investigation, Keppel and his fellow Task Force member Dave Reichert interviewed Bundy in prison several times, and he gave them his input on the motivations of the unknown killer. Bundy expressed his belief that the killer would have returned to the dump sites of the bodies of his victims to sexually assault them, and that turned out to be true.
In Ted Bundy: Dialogue with the Devil, we will get to hear the audiotaped interviews that were made during this time. Keppel continued to talk to Bundy right up until his execution in January of 1989. Bundy was confirmed to have killed 20 women in California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Utah, Colorado, and Florida between the years of 1973 and 1978. Many believe he may have actually killed 30 or more.
Ted Bundy: Dialogue with the Devil will begin streaming on Hulu on August 7.
Mr. and Mrs. Murder dives into the twisted tale of two Florida couples who were best friends for years. Kathy and Brian Winchester had been friends with Mike and Denise Williams since they were all kids.
The four did almost everything together, including attend church, and planning out the births of their children to be only months apart, but everything changed on December 16, 2000. That’s the day 31-year-old Mike went duck hunting alone on Lake Seminole, on the junction of Florida, Georgia and Alabama. Mike never returned home from that trip. Most people believed he had drowned or been killed by alligators, though his body was never found.
Kathy first began to feel suspicious when Denise had her husband declared legally dead only six months after he disappeared – and those suspicions became stronger when Denise and Brian began an affair, which led to Kathy and Brian eventually divorcing. Brian later married Denise , and Kathy continued to do her own investigation into Mike’s disappearance for the next 13 years, becoming an informant and eventually testifying on the witness stand.
Mr. and Mrs. Murder will debut on Hulu July 30
