EP 141. Dennis Nilsen aka "The British Jeffrey Dahmer": Part 1
A secret desire turned fatal obsession. A charming loner in London, his predatory urges hidden beneath polite conversation. Until the night he drags a young man home and everything unravels.
In late 1970s London, Dennis Andrew Nilsen was a reserved Scotsman grappling with his queerness and desire—lured at least twelve young men and boys into his flat under offers of companionship, shelter, or a drink. This queer‑tinged true crime podcast episode delves into a chilling gay murder case fused with necrophilia, exposing how Nilsen's internalized homophobia and complex queer identity fueled one of Britain’s most disturbing unsolved LGBTQ+ mysteries. We trace the cultural shadows of homophobia, police indifference, and the lonely desperation that spiraled into ritualized killing. Each twist reminding us why revisiting queer history still holds urgent truth today.
