What happens if your favorite character jumps off the page and starts a podcast? That’s Crime Adjacent, the never-ending true crime thriller told weekly.
With the help of devoted listeners and true crime fans, the international #1 smash hit podcast team has already captured the Bay Area's Rest Stop Killer in 2023, stopped the Mercy Street Butcher in 2019, and exposed the AmaniCorp conspiracy in 2024.
But the darkest chapter awaits. In the latest season, host and serial killer survivor Chase Patrick investigates the Michigan Nightstalker, who in September 2024 broke into the cabins of single, vacationing women late at night to rub their feet. Creepy, yes. But it soon escalated into a murder spree that spanned the entire state.
Crime Adjacent is a fully immersive, scripted podcast with sumptuous sound design and cases that blur the lines between reality and conspiracy. And unlike traditional audio drama, Crime Adjacent doesn’t stop.
It’s an ongoing true crime thriller, unfolding week by week, chapter by chapter. It’s part investigative drama, part social commentary, and part meditation on why we are drawn to darkness. Think Sharp Objects meets I'll Be Gone in the Dark meets Serial—except here, the story never ends, as Chase Patrick travels the country to uncover the nation's deadliest secrets.

Thirty years ago, someone began snatching men from a small Bay Area town and dumping their bodies in a quiet lovers’ lane just off Interstate 80.
But just as quickly as the killings began, they suddenly stopped. The killer simply vanished. No suspects. No arrests. No headlines. These men and their murderer were forgotten, overshadowed by other notorious serial killers prowling the same Bay Area roads.
In this season of Crime Adjacent, host and serial killer survivor Chase Patrick returns home to Ridgewood to answer the question once and for all: “How could the most prolific serial murderer in American history slip under the radar for so long?”
Crime Adjacent is the never-ending true crime story told weekly. New season debuts June 4, 2025, wherever you listen to podcasts, with new episodes every Wednesday.
