Über diesen Titel

Not every love story has a happy ending. In fact, some unravel in the most unexpected and unsettling ways. "Echoes" is a podcast that explores the fascinating and often heartbreaking stories of human connections gone wrong. We go beyond the sensational headlines to understand the complex dynamics that lead to shattered friendships, bitter divorces, and, sometimes, even criminal acts.

Each week, we'll guide you through a new story of betrayal and conflict. One week, you might hear about a friendship torn apart by a devastating lie. The next, we might unravel the intricate web of a marriage that ends in a courtroom battle. And sometimes, we'll delve into those chilling cases where love, jealousy, or obsession culminates in a crime.

    Nov 4 2025

    In the dead of night, 17-year-old Benjamin Elliott made a frantic 911 call with a chilling confession: "I just killed my sister." His next words would create a mystery that baffled investigators and tore a family apart: "I thought it was a dream." This is the tragic and perplexing story of Benjamin and Meghan Elliott, inseparable twins whose bond was shattered by an act of unimaginable violence. With no motive, no history of conflict, and a family left reeling, Benjamin's defense presented one of the rarest arguments in legal history: homicidal sleepwalking. They claimed a sleep disorder called parasomnia caused him to commit a horrific act while completely unconscious. Was Benjamin Elliott a cold-blooded killer with a convenient excuse, or was he the victim of a profound mental malfunction—a nightmare that bled into reality?

  • The Fourth World: Inside the Deadly Fantasy of Parker and Hulme
    Oct 10 2025

    Juliet Hulme, shared an intense and imaginative friendship.1 They created their own elaborate fantasy world, a paradise they called "The Fourth World," complete with its own religion and moral code.2 But when their parents threatened to separate them, this fantasy world collided with reality in the most brutal way imaginable.

    On June 22, 1954, the girls lured Pauline's mother, Honorah Rieper, to a secluded path in Victoria Park and bludgeoned her to death with a brick wrapped in a stocking.3 The crime was not a spontaneous act of rage but a premeditated murder, planned to remove the one person they saw as an obstacle to their life together.

    Join us as we delve into the sensational case that shocked a nation. We'll explore the girls' complex relationship, which some at the time speculated was a lesbian romance, a factor that fueled the media frenzy. We will examine the contents of Pauline's diary, which provided a chilling account of their plans and motivations. We'll also discuss the trial, where the defense argued insanity, claiming the girls were suffering from a shared delusion or "folie à deux."

    Finally, we will uncover the surprising second acts of their lives. After serving just five years in prison, both women were released, changed their names, and disappeared from the public eye.3 One became a reclusive horse-riding instructor, while the other, under the name Anne Perry, became a world-renowned, best-selling author of crime novels.
