Eleonora fan you di the Sandra Layne case, she is a old lady that killed her grandson
yessir
Please start labelling your multiparty episodes the same thing then part 1/2 etc, I often find a video of yours that is part two and I can't find part one or I find the first and can't find the second, also I can't click the icard or whatever you call it on my tablet which is where I watch these
Just got Nord VPN to support myself and the queen 👑 (aka Eleanor)…..or maybe so I can watch UK soaps from the US 😁
The story of Pauline especially breaks my heart because how they met sounds like the beginning of the sweetest love story. She’s stood up, he swoops in and saves her night, they talk for hours and fall in love. It would be so romantic, something you tell the grandkids some day, but he makes it horrendous and evil. It’s so sad.
thats exactly what i was thinking :( its so heartbreaking
Except she was trying to cheat on her husband to begin with 😂
@@D0ntTickleMe Oh snap. 🤣 I must have missed that part. Ms. Pauline is naughty out here in these streets.
@@D0ntTickleMe oh shit she was?? lmao
I agree, it's so sad. She probably felt terrible and the someone comes along and makes the situation better and cheers you up. So sad.
Imagine getting stood up and thinking “this is the worst way this night could have gone” and then getting murdered
that’s so sad :(
Lmao why did I laugh at that
@@Nazz3zan lol so did I and thought the same !! Probably because she was saying I her head as she’s sitting alone in a pub “ my night couldn’t get any worse !!!!
@@Victoria_Watts89 Fr lmaooo like the coincidence is just funny
talk about being unlucky haha
imagine how confused those women would've felt after this man was so kind to them before killing them. it's honestly heartbreaking
Yeah I agree.
So sad, I can’t imagine. Talk about a monster.
It must have been the same thing with Ted Bundy. Good looking, friendly and debonair.. So sad that these women trusted them..
@@celeestura4416 bundy wasn’t good looking, he was an average white guy. he “charmed” women by pretending to he disabled to gain their sympathy
She was literally trying to kiss him, can’t even imagine what she was thinking in her final moments
Ngl Eleanor keeps saying this guy is a bodybuilder and real buff but his pictures make him look like a cheeky 15 year old.
THIS! I was so confused every time I saw his picture 😂 it just doesn't go together in my brain
No steroids in the 1940s
@@darragh9837 lol
The baby face does throw you off. Perhaps it's partly why his victims trusted him and allowed him to walk them home despite knowing a killer was on the loose.
His baby face made him seem softer and like less of a threat than he actually was.
Who’s the idol in your profile pic
It’s terrifying how all you have to do is be in the wrong place at the wrong time to run into someone like Eddie
And that’s why I’m always vigilant!
I cant believe they buried him with all the other veterans like he was deserving of being mourned, like bro he literally murdered 3 innocent people.
I mean I'm sure there were many soldiers that did vile things in the war, but because they were the 'enemy', and they were german women, it was never noted. This is only recognised as the victims were the allies (rightly so, but my point is that there would have been more than just him that weren't 'deserving' of being mourned)
I agree with Becky... Who knows the "training" we put our soldiers through could have been the final straw that pushed his sanity over the edge. Plus all the American soldiers that raped whilst over there fighting the war.
@@DT-nb6ke not an excuse.
@@breestraker1094 i don’t think anyone’s making excuses. from the behavior displayed all throughout this case, you’re telling me you think this man is mentally sound? what he did wasn’t right whatsoever, but i think they should’ve looked into his mental health a lot more. rape is just as bad as murder, because the victim has to live with that for the rest of their life. but there’s a lot of soldiers that get/got away with vile shit, this was just one of them that’s been caught.
@@bjh107 that still doesnt disprove their point, thats just proving that we should pay attention to who we celebrate WAY MORE.
I was literally saying to myself “Hm. Eleanor hasn’t posted part 3 yet. I wonder when that’ll be out?” And BOOM you post
Sameeeeeeeeeeee
Samee
i literally just commented on part 2 asking for it
crazy
You and I both!!
i love that eleanor thinks a werewolf is a wolf that turns into a bigger wolf hdjdjdj
Thank u for saying this i was thinking the same thing dbjsjdksks
So innocent lmao
Wtf that's new about a werewolf even different from the people who think I'm walking 2 werewolves when I'm walking down the street with my huskies
Lol
The most precious freaking thing I’ve ever heard. 🥰
It's so sad and disturbing how all of the pictures of him are him with this huge, genuine smile on his face. It creeps me out
He looks genuinely happy too. Like some sort of clown
it’s making me forget what he did like every time his face comes up i start to feel sorry for him then i quickly have to remind myself that he’s a serial killer
@@libbygreaves5472 If I didn't know his story, I'd see this picture of him smiling and think he was a heroic soldier who died for his country. Scary as appearances can be deceiving.
@@libbygreaves5472you always think “well I don’t think I would be manipulated by a serial killer that easily”, but things like that really demonstrate how easily manipulators can do rhat
@@EnderPanReignsthis is so true and it makes it even more scarier to think they are still people out there like him
it’s really sad that none of his victims got the coverage they deserved because of the war but HE got to be in the front page
Right :/
i have short term memory loss so i always forget i’m waiting for another part
but it’s a nice suprise :)
Same gurl same
Woah i don't know why when i find out one TH-camr i love watches another TH-camr i love it's always such a pleasant surprise, but it makes me happy too
Omg hello!
Howwww I check like 10 times a day🤣🤣🤣
I can’t do that; drives me CRAZY!! So I just hold off until both parts (or all three in this case) are ready for a binge watch! I love me a good binge watch!! 🥰
At that time, there was a stigma against reporting being attacked. The thinking was that no "modest woman" is ever bothered by men; she must have "done something", even if it was just being out at night. My mother was almost raped by a soldier, and never thought of reporting it
I say "at that time", but there are still many people who; have similar attitudes, if not as extreme as then.
I’m so sorry to hear about your mother’s experience
It's mostly because of victim blaming which still happens in a few countries sadly because of which even now many cases go unreported.
My heart broke a little when I read this comment. So true
@@NFKhan-eu3ff happens in every country, tbh. plus men of power (usually the cops that this would be reported to) will find fault with the victim's actions, esp if it's a woman but honestly even a man victimized by someone perceived societally to be weaker, before they condemn the perpetrator for their actions.
@@registeredjopper victim blaming is the reason why rapists don't get any punishments. Because victims aren't able to report their cases.
It's ironic, for lack of a better term, that he ended up dying from being choked by a noose when he choked his victims. I hope those woman's souls are at rest now.
But he wasn't choked, his neck was broken. He should've been dancing at the end of the rope for it to be the same as what he did to those women.
He didn’t die from being choked. His neck was broken.
It's neck trauma, good enough
I was looking for this comment.
My teenage daughter had a sleepover for her birthday last night, there was 4 of them. I came downstairs where they where sleeping and they were all huddled together watching your video about the moors murderers, when I told them it wasn't too far from us they shit theirselves 🤣🤣
Love this!
aww hahaha
Eleanor giving a brief explanation of werewolves was so cute. Brought a smile to my face, but in my mind I’m thinking, “No.. That’s not how it works Eleanor.”
I was enthralled with the fact she used this reference. It was so cute
"He said shit all the time" idk if I've ever heard or at least noticed Eleanor swear 😂 love it
Ik i love it tooo
I had the same exact thought
She swears in almost every video now
Same I thought it was cute
its kinda like hearing someone like iHasCupquake swear or hearing jacksepticeye stop swearing-
I feel like the woman's voice was somehow him pretending he had his mom to comfort him maybe 😕 🤔
That certainly is a very possible theory, makes sense
So then why kill her 😐🧐
@@rondazug9967 was thinking about the same thing, maybe it's because even tho he was trying to pretend in his head it's her, he knew that it's not her. and since he had no respect for women....
He killed them because he didn’t want them to leave like his mom left
I'm so interested in criminal Psychology but idk if I could handle knowing all the terrifying minds of murderers
As someone who works in corrections, you'd be surprised at how likable a lot of the people are who have committed the most horrendous crimes. It's not uncommon for officers to become friendly with people over the course of their incarceration. I wouldn't say that "friendships" develop, but you do get to know the inmates and have good conversations with them. It's a very interesting dynamic.
Just wanted to add a thing about Of Mice and Men!! In the book, Lenny actually killing Curly’s wife was a complete accident. She liked him and let him pet her hair since it was so soft, and he accidentally hurt her. She started yelling and he got super scared and tried to quite her down, but because he was so unaware of his own strength he accidentally snapped her neck :(
I love how Eleanor is able to completely paint a visual picture for us when talking about each case.
I’ve never seen any other true crime creator who can do this so well; she literally makes you feel like you’re in the environment as the crime is taking place!
Such an incredible storyteller! 👏🏻
'he referred to his future hanging as a face lift' im sorry but i cackled 💀
Yeah that was kinda funny 💀💀

Exactly!😭😭
Cry about femmie
Would you ever consider handling the case of Marc Detroux? He was a horrible man who ended up killing several young girls in Belgium. In the country, the story is well known and a bit sensitive as it didn't happen that long ago. It is however very interesting as it also deals with the failure of the police force, the largest protest in Belgium ever and reforms that followed. The way his and his wife imprisonment is/was handled is also full of stories worth talking about. I don't see it spoken about often but think you would do great as you are always very respectful and handle the cases with tact.
Joshua miles did this case if ur interested
NO! NO! NO! Many people say I am sick in the head. NOOOO!!!! I don't believe them. But there are so many people commenting this stuff on my videos, that I have 1% doubt. So I have to ask you right now: Do you think I am sick in the head? Thanks for helping, my dear em

_"If there was a Serial Killer in 2021 and all the police made friends with him that would be Cancel worthy"_

Imagine being a soldier and dying trying to protect the Australian people only to be buried alongside another soldier who murdered 3 of the people y’all were supposed to protect 🙃
Well there were likely much more bodies than Eddie that had dark secrets. Being a soldier doesn't change what someone is on the inside. Some of them probably didn't kill women but soldier rape was very common.
@@skittlekitty7264 True. Didn’t help that rape cases then were often more dismissed than they are today
You know that all soldiers murder people right?
@@idek7438 I’m aware, I just think its wrong that they buried him in an “honorable” way just because he was a soldier
@@skittlekitty7264that doesn't make it ok. & a lot of the messed up stuff soldiers do overseas- that's part of war (DEF not ok) but taking out random innocent civilians at HOME? What everyone's supposedly fighting to protect?
While Eddie may have been a big tough guy for his time, judging by the photos of him in Australia he looks fairly small by today's standards.
Those were my thoughts too
I think he just has a baby face. But if he could walk on his hands for a long time, he must have had a lot of upper body strength
Bruce Lee was a small guy, like 130 lbs, but crazy strong. It happens.
At that times there were not many pictures ..so the picture they showed here is probably when he was a young teenager..not a fully grown adult man
I mean this was during the Holocaust and they were rationing food so they weren’t exactly gym bros back then.
This case at first I was like oh Eddy is such a horrible person, but now I feel bad. He clearly was suffering from mental illness, shock, and trauma. What he did was horrible, but it's still sad.
maybe he was or maybe he wasn’t of sound mind at the moment of the killings, but he sure as heck was sound enough to know he’d done something horrendous, and sound enough to repeatedly go out of his way to elude the cops, and sound enough to refuse to turn himself in despite understanding he’d done something horrendous.
no, no sympathy from me.
This is exactly what I was thinking. An incompetent person wouldn't have tried to lie and get away. He knew what he was doing was wrong. Poor women.
Would you consider numbering your series plz??? So often you upload a video and I can't tell whether it's a second part or not without getting into bits of the video. So if this was just labelled '*case name* #3' I think it'd just be super helpful?
She's the only crime youtuber who labels them this way and it gets me every time. I'll look at her uploads and wonder which is part of a series. I'll tell you this, and it's pretty smart, most people like to wait for a complete series to be out. It's impatience. I'd rather wait a week for all 3 parts rather than waiting a day or 2 between parts. I forget what all was in the first or second part. So, it's brilliant actually that she does this. I get hooked on the first part and then wait for the others and sometimes I'll rewatch the first but others click on the most recent video and are told it's part of a series. She's making that money.
I wonder too if it has to do with the algorithm so her videos get more attention. Maybe people are more willing to click if it looks like it’s an entire case in one video?
@@Lucia-yc9zj I think she mentioned on her Twitter once (I’m not fully sure tho so don’t quote me on this) that it’s because TH-cam will categorise it as spam if she adds #1, #2, #3, etc which makes them recommend it to less ppl
I usually immediately click away when she says it's a multi parter because I like watching it all in one go when it's complete.
Not sure why TH-cam would consider it spam if she added some form of "part 1", I've seen others do it, but who knows?
@@miaivanov7024 THIS!! Istg people are still bugging her for this, yall dumb just look at the order of the videos releasing
can we appreciate how pretty eleanor is and how her hair is always perfect 😫
y’all say this under every video so shallow. she’s talking abt women being murdered it’s rly not the time.
I agree
@@okidgaf7643 It’s just a compliment chill out 😩
@Sydney Primeau I hardly think she needs validation from strangers, she is more likely to care about the story she's telling instead of what you think of her makeup, hair or outfit, and she's said as much

I always stand by 'drunk words are sober thoughts' so if someone tells me something questionable while they're drunk you best believe I'm keeping an eye on them
“I’ve been WAITING FOR THIS THIS ONE… TURN IT UP”
Case suggestion: Pamela Hastie. Unsolved murder of a teenage girl from my town (Johnstone, Renfrewshire, Scotland) from the 80s. There was a man wrongly imprisoned for a long time but he was released so it's back to being unsolved. Peter Tobin's name has even been brought up (he was born here) although that's pretty far fetched.
Wow, his ending, his demeanor. It really does make me feel as if there was something undiagnosed there. It's incredibly sad how a tragic childhood could make an adult who thinks he's well adjusted into a murderer. The comparison to Of Mice and Men makes it sad. I feel sorrow for the women, they didn't deserve that. I also feel sorrow for Eddie, who could've lived a great life had he not murdered or even had the proper resources to cope with trauma instead of having him think that he needed to find it on his on thru murder. This case is a perfect example of what the world is: just when you think everything can be black and white, the world will show you that it isn't. Wow. Great coverage, Eleanor, hats off to your ability to capture so many conflicting emotions. Just wow.
Interesting fact about Eddie Leonski
My great uncle worked at the Pentridge prison where Leonski was being held. My great uncle told my nanna about an experience he had with Leonski. At the time jam wasn’t kept in glasses they were kept in tin cans which they gave to the prisoners. My uncle witnessed Leonski crushing these full jam tins as if it was nothing since he had such an insane amount of strength in his hands.
I think that the creepiest thing about Eddie is that he looks so normal. He doesn't look creepy or anything.
Agreed, very creepy and scary
All the scariest serial killers do.
I know we will never truly be able to understand the mind of such a killer. But, I do wonder if Eddie knew when he sat and started talking to Pauline... if he was going to kill her? Or if he decided this as the night went on?
I think he probably did know, but idk if it’s like that for u but if I for example hear that person A died and I have no idea who that is it kinda doesn’t seem as real as when for example person B who I know just a little backstory does. So it’s weird I mean he just sees a woman in a shop, says hi and kills her, but when he has been talking for hours with a woman and knows her backstory and her family, what she does, her life how can he bring himself to take it?
@@katarinapivnicki254 Comes down to motive. He was probably mentally ill and his desperation to keep ahold of their voices, which reminded him of his mother most likely, led to him squeezing the area the noise came from as if desperately trying to hold onto it. It’s about mindset, a person can kill someone they know for a few reasons naturally, moments of extreme unbridled anger is the most common. Maybe a situation in which it’s their life or yours or someone you care about more. I don’t think his killings were simply to kill and take the women away from their families. His motives were completely different from a normal reason to kill so understanding it in a empathetic way is probably impossible
It's crazy how such severe trauma was repressed in Eddie's mind for so long. he was a 'normal' child all through the time when these severe and traumatic events were happening directly at home. Yet, later in life, he snapped and gave in to the long term effect of these events. The singing from his mother, his only comfort, became his only coping method, yet also his driving force to replace her and kill. He wanted to 'keep' their voices forever and return to that state of comfort he once had when with his mother.
It just goes to show that trauma can have deep, deep effects on the brain even when it's not obvious.
“If your a good person you go to heaven, i dont know what eddie thought he was”😂
Pauline's death hits me so hard. Imagine being stood up and this attractive solider comes up and starts a conversation. You think maybe this night wasn't so bad after all ,yall are really hitting it off . Drunk also possibly thinking he's such a gentleman falling for him. He loves to hear you sing which seems very sweet and it just feels like it was a very good night and things ended up turning up better than you though. Then he viciously strangles and murders you. Her last thoughts before it and during was probably pure terror . Ugh so heart breaking.. what a horrible tragedy. I'm just glad he told somebody and was able to be locked away and they got justice.
Eddie: I can't let her go! I like her voice so much
also Eddie: * strangles woman *
Doesn't make any sense huh
thank you for always putting content warnings; even though I usually watch the videos, it's nice to be prepared for the more tragic events, so I appreciate them
it took me a minute to figure out why he was called the "of mice and men" killer and then i remembered the book and, quite frankly, they shouldn't have called him that. he was killing people on purpose, while the Lennie did it completely on accident. idk, i have feeling about that book and that just seems wrong to me.
edit: hey besties i appreciate y'all's interest in this but PLEASE stop trying to explain to me why they would call him that. i genuinely don't care, i wasn't asking for an explanation, i was saying why i don't like it and why it seemed wrong. they can call him whatever the hell they want- but comparing him to Lennie Small was inaccurate and a slander to a character who quite literally did not know better.
Lennie was disturbed and loved things so much he would kill them. Similarly, in the second video Eddie snapped when he heard a woman speak because of how much he loved the female voice. I understand where the ‘of Mice and Men’ reference comes from within this, but I also understand your point where Lennie was so mentally young he didn’t understand what he was doing, whereas there’s premeditation in many of Eddie’s crimes.
@@ellemelrose3409 I think Eddie just charmed a lot of people with his cheeky chappy act and I think we shouldn't continue to fall for it. The guy killed women in a premeditated, merciless fashion because he had absolutely no regard for them. And if we subscribe to his worldview, which some of these commenters do, and humanize him to this point - we forget and devalue his victims
@@intrepidtomato even though he was evil he is still human it’s important to remember that bad people are still humans
@@intrepidtomato right? Whether he was mentally ill or not, he murderer three women and tried killing others/ abused others. Lots of people, mentally ill people too, go through worse and yet don’t kill other human beings. He was deeply misogynistic and he CHOSE to murder women. Period.
Lennie was literally disabled and didn't understand what he was doing. Eddie knew what he had done and STILL didn't turn himself in
“That would be cancel-worthy” LMAO girl I love u
The fact I had to keep myself from smiling while listening about him joking and people liking him... It terrifies me so much. I have a huge sense of justice, if I can word it that way, I can hardly see a criminal such as a murderer redeemable, but this... It makes me so uncomofrtable.
The police nipping to his cell to c that with him. Smh
Him making so much out of his execution is narcissistic, not sad
Yep total narcissist, and these guys just fell for his cheeky chappy patter. Makes me sad for the women. Everybody is just looking for an explanation of what made him such a psycho to humanize this guy who had no regard for human life at all
Thank you both so much for those smart answers.
The Jekyll and Hyde comparison fits him so well.
"Drunk people say a lot of things"
Then when you call them out on it when they're sober they get mad at you for putting words in their mouth lol
I feel like he did have a mental illness, but it wouldn't have been enough to plead insanity. He had bloodlust and he knew about it and still put himself in situations that would trigger that bloodlust. He has a mental illness, but if he really did want to stop, he would make it so it was less likely for him to kill someone. And I think the death penalty wasn't a wrong decision, with that time period's psychology knowledge, they would have been able to maybe help a little, but his bloodlust would be there, and considering how strong he is, it would've been hard to keep him in check. I don't even know if modern psychology help would've taken care of the bloodlust.
To me it seems like he might have some sort of mild autism. The self-soothing, asking to hold the lawyers hand, the childlike behavior, etc. I’m not a professional so don’t take my word for it, it that would be my guess
@@brenna_marie His behavior was most likely developed due to external factors such as how he grew up. The voice thing is very much connected to a soothing method his mother used while he was a kid. I’m no professional either but I really doubt autism is the diagnosis he would receive today. I’d imagine some type of personality disorder but not that. Also schizophrenia possibly as mentioned by Eleanor which uses a combination of things like genetics and external factors(his families history of mental illness and also his upbringing put together). Honestly idk any autism cases like this that causes such a reaction
I love how sensitive and careful and respectful you are with these cases. You put TWs, don't show pictures of the d34d bodies and seem like such a genuinely sweet person. I would love to have a friend like you
Great work on the story, all three parts! Slight correction thought. Yes, he was moved to Hawaii and buried in a military cemetery in Schofield Barracks, but he is buried in a section reserved for prisoners who died while in military custody.

I wish more women in the world had the strength to leave abusive relationships before their children get so mentally affected. Majority don't turn out to be murderers but we can't deny that domestic abuse messes so many children up in the head one way or another.
I did it! Yes! Hell yeah! Living my best life after yrs of a living hell. It's possible, not easy but possible. My kids deserve better and little did I know I deserve better 💕. To those still in it+Find your strength there's hope look at yourself and tell yourself "you got this" as much as you need to!
I think it is unfair to fall for that narrative. There's always so much that people make of the motivations of the killer, how he should have been treated better.... let's not feel sorry for these people who snuffed out other people's lives without mercy, for their own selfish reasons. Everybody feels hurt and has trauma in their lives, some more than others, true. But I hate that focus on the killer as a 'good guy really'
@@intrepidtomato He didn't. He just said majority doesn't. You can sympathize with the child.

I keep seeing the chair pillow as cat ears on Eleanor and I can’t unseen it. Lol
I really like this style of video for solved cases, the presenting it in the way the authorities found out, and in the perspective of the killer
Maybe eddie did go to the police about himself thats why the police got that strange tip about the hand walking??
i feel like that was probably his bestfriend who called police
I have been checking so many times a day for this video! I just think you are so incredibly beautiful, kind, and real. You are just one of those people that regardless of never having met you, you radiate kindness and a true genuine heart. Like you would be the best friend to have, but definitely wouldn’t want to get on your bad side! I’ve noticed when I’m having a hard mental health day or just hard day in general I’m more gravitated to your videos, thank you!
When Eleanor posts it just makes everyone’s day better 😊

I live in Melbourne and recently did a tour of the Old Melbourne Jail where Eddy was held. I can assure you those cells were tiny. Mostly taken up by a bed on the floor. Not much walking around room. The area where they hung prisoners is open and can be seen by cells in the upper floor. It's grim damp and cold. I think I remember reading about Eddy in the information boards they have in different cells.
I've been there too and that place gave me the creeps. Just imagining what happened there.
I only went there cause of Ned Kelly
With peace and love, I find it mildly confusing at times when the parts of a story series are titled differently. As always though, thank you for covering another case in such depth with such respect ♥️
35:36 I Love when we get to see the “raw and uncut” version. When the editor leaves in her “mistakes” 😫❤️
I always save Eleanor's vids for my chill sessions, which kinda brings the vibes of getting a new episode at the same time every week on TVA, old vibes that I have from the past- and it's always such a great breather. I love setting aside time after work for just me and catching up on a new vid. Cheers, love ya!
I wonder how the guy who stood up Pauline felt, knowing that it resulted in her murder...
you can’t really blame him for that
@@adriameadvin6466 its not blaming him but he could’ve prevented it
I'd feel horrible. Not sure if I've well. No matter that most of me knew that it's not my fault that tiny what is would eat me alive no joke
@@adriameadvin6466 no one is blaming him, but just imagine how bad he must have felt
He might have blamed himself a bit but we don’t know why he stood her up. Eleanor never mentioned if there was a serious and/or valid issue that prevented him being there. If he was there it’s likely she would have been alive but another woman could just as easily have been murdered.
I actually had tears in my eyes at the end. What a crazy story!
I loved how you linked his hands on their throats with taking their voices for himself. It's very symbolic. There was a deep meaning to it and what it meant to him, the force behind his actions, if you will. I was seeing that the entire time through the videos. You truly are honing in on your skills of investigating and understanding the minds of those criminals. Keep going on this path. You are AMAZING!!!!! Thanks so much for sharing all of these brilliant pieces. I admire you greatly!!

I was literally thinking about this because I was waiting for part 3.And boom the first thing I see after opening youtube is this and I'm excited to watch.Thanks for making my day better Eleanor!
I literally said to my partner "where's Eleanor?" Opened TH-cam and there she was. He was like wtf is Eleanor?
Yey! Been stalking her feed for days waiting for this. Im chilled out and relaxed ready for this 🥰
I absolutely loved the of mice and men book, im wondering why he's nicknamed the "Of Mice and Men Killer"? Can't wait to find out! 😀
i think its a reference to how Lennie grabbed Curly's wife by the neck and choked her to death, which is similar to how Eddie here carried out his murders
@@cabbyunn Yep! Thanks so much, she talks about it at 32:00 , poor Lennie, I still feel bad for him in the book 😥
@@randomfandom101 same. His death made me cry
Eleanor mentioned that he liked one of the victims bags because it was soft. In Of Mice and Men, Lennie is a really big and strong guy who likes soft things. In the books he likes finding mice so he can stroke their fur but he ends up accidentally crushing them to death because he is so strong. Eventually he even kills a woman as he snaps her neck while stroking her hair.
@@lauren6015 yeahhe does that to a puppy too, lennie is just a big kid and it was extremely heartbreaking at the end ;-; the older movie makes the scenes so emotional
'he realised it was a bit bait to take the handbag'
girl 🤣🤣
I don't understand how he can be so obsessed with women's voices but still decide he wants to silence them forever. It's like his love for their voices and his hatred of women raged a war inside him.
It's also so weird how he almost has this disconnect when he was drunk. He killed these women when he was wasted then felt guilt and shame when he was sober. So much so that he subconsciously wanted to be stopped.
He was an extremely confused person. The psychology of this man's brain would be fascinating to study.
Gallow (how do you spell it?) took his sweet bloody time turning Eddie in. Could have saved a life if he sucked it up and used some common sense
Can we just appreciate that Eleanor hasn’t changed het content over time to be ‘monetisation-friendly and had stayed true to the stories every time despite the issues with ads🥺a true crime queen
She needs a patreon tbh
@@ayabeevt she has one
Nvm she has channel members
It’s all about the $$$$ with Eleanor
Suggestion: keep the videos under the same name with part 1, part 2, etc. it’s way less confusing especially for people who are new or just came across one of your videos through suggestions but even for us who have already been here.
Eddie wouldn't have liked me. My voice is so deep, I've been confused for a man on the phone lol
The of Mice and men character killed the woman also by accident trying to keep her quiet when she screamed. He wasn't a monster. He wasn't all there mentally
I've waited for all the three parts to come out so then I can watch them all at once.. yeah I have no patient
Hahaha nice one
But you do have patience for waiting for a whole two weeks😁
*a bad day*
Eleanor: " So today's video"
Suhh
Absolutely love your videos! I lost someone this past week and your voice is so calming that I’ve been listening to your channel nonstop and it’s helped me stay level headed during this hectic week. Keep doing what ya do!!
i hope you’re okay!
Lots of strength and good vibes your way ❤️❤️
@@la-fd6em I will be, thank you ❤️
@@dragonflygirl6010 thank you so much 🙏
I’m pretty sure my coworkers are so tired of hearing “so today’s videooooo” 😂😂 you get me through my work nights ❤️
his obsession with their voices might also be able to be described as "cute agression" maybe? like he loved it so much he felt the urge to just kill y'know?
I'm sorry but surely if every time you got drunk you ended up killing someone you just... would try to stop drinking. If he really felt "guilty". But nope, he continues...
Edit: sorry I realise this is not taking the fact he is most likely an alcoholic/addict like his parents into consideration! I forgot about that.
true, but you can’t just “stop drinking” when you’re an alcoholic
i think it was some sort of addiction, like some people are addicted to drugs and porn together. it isn't an excuse tho
It's addiction. He needed help to stop.
yeah sorry good point!! I just feel so angry about all those women especially the one who got stood up 😭
@@lemon-parker no excuse but an explanation. I assume it looks something like he felt guilty or some other negative emotion, couldn't deal with it because he was already addicted drank and hoped for a different outcome, murdered, felt bad and so the circle goes
“Be honest who else is a few hours late”😂
Me 😉
A whole day
i’m 3days late 💀
WHY DO I FEEL BAD FOR THIS MAN HE IS A LITERAL SERIAL KILLER WHO THOUGHT NOTHING OF WOMEN I HATED HIM UNTIL THE BIT HE GOT ARRESTED WHY DOES THE DEATH PENALTY DO THIS TO MEEEEE
same here :(
Honestly why do u ? he knew exactly what he was doing, you realize that he has hated women all his life, tried rape and yet u feel this way.......
@@distressedwhore8797 i know i feel this way i absolutely despise people like this but i dont think we should sink to their level and murder them. I know people justify it as a life for a life but i dont think they should have killed him. He deserved to rot in a cell but he got the easy way out.
@@blakea22 though honestly, was he rotting? He made the best of the situation just after he got caught, when prior he didn't want to be caught at all and kept going until it was inevitable. 🤔
It sounds that a lot of them were worried about their husbands finding out they spent time with another man, even if it was just letting them walk them home
I absolutely love how you say “look after yourself “ that would make cute merch
Okay that is merch I would actually buy 😩
@@jewelxiat same
I've been waiting for the final installment! 🥰 Thank you for always covering these cases so well and respectfully.
Eleanor, thank you and your editor! I want you to know that we appreciate all the work you guys do. You both work so hard. Thanks for making my bad day better 💛💜
I’m not gonna lie.. referring to the hanging as a “face lift” made me chuckle 🤦🏽♀️
12:17 “ he also LYCANd it to a werewolf “ pls 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I was NEEDING this video! I woke up at 4 AM it’s almost 6 and I’m exhausted, I needed something simple to watch while I try go back to sleep, absolute perfect timing. Love you eleanor 💕💕 your videos are absolutely amazing
I had this happen this morning to, I hope you got some sleep ❤
@@katestravelvideos I did thank you hun, woke up to my birds screaming which was unpleasant LMAO
@@Riley-ow8ok omg Australia has so many birds that do this!!! I struggle with this as well🥰
@@katestravelvideos ahhh I own 10 birds ontop of that bahah- so many lorikeets and cockys around my house 😭😭
@@Riley-ow8ok omgggggg I would get no sleep 😆
I’d love to see your take on the Michaela Mcareavey case. As a Mauritian myself I’d like to see you include external factors such as the argument between the couple (found in the newspapers) and John trying to sink our tourism industry as opposed to the incredibly biased documentaries out there blaming people that have been found not guilty like Donald McIntyre. I feel like you’d give a less biased view
Hope she’ll cover this case 🙏🏽
That's so odd that'd he'd be allowed to be buried with actual war vets that actually fought and died in a WAR, not committed shitty crimes bc they had a weird fetish?
You’d be surprised how many “war veterans” have committed way worse crimes than this :/
Literally paused before even 5 minutes because I had to google "Gin & Orange." As it sounded like a fantastic drink I'd never heard of. I'm just sorry she shared such a drink with a serial killer.
Never have i been more thankful to have a naturally low and throaty voice
