The Fox Hollow Murders: Playground of a Serial Killer

This show is an interesting mix of factual information and woo-hoo nonsense. The parts of the program that covered actual factual events, the victims, their families, the killer(s), and the lack of engagement from law enforcement were interesting to any true crime fan. However, the show dips into alleged psychics, bad energy, ghosts, and whoo-hoo nonsense far too often. True crime does not mix well with this kind of nonsense and it throws off the throw of the show to the point I could not finish all the episodes and instead just fast-forwarded through the bull-slingers and their monetized nonsense. This includes the new owner of the property and the weirdos who pretend they are ghost hunting. I recommend you do the same.

I'm unsure why it's three total episodes- there's so many people who only add ridiculous amounts of nothing, adding nothing, frustrating maddening, frivolous excuses, and it goes absolutely nowhere.

I do feel badly for the families with no answers, but this does nothing to get them any closer to answers; they're used only as a means to an end, filling time.

The coroner and his endeavor to put names to remains is admirable, but between law enforcement and the prosecutors who did absolutely nothing close to resembling arresting this monster, despite mountains of evidence, and couldn't even be bothered to watch him, much less gain an arrest warrant to haul him in, allowed this demonstrably horrific criminal to escape to another country and end his own life, on his own terms. The entire county of Hamilton completely dropped the ball and yet, no one was reprimanded, not a single person was held to account.

There's almost an entire episode of what I can only describe as childish scribbling on the wall- the new homeowner seems like quite the insane attention seeker, and brings in psychics, priests, people who can supposedly speak with the deceased, and the whole episode was nothing but fast-forwarding through all of it.

Mark Goodyear was absolutely an accomplice, if not also culpable for the crimes committed. He was in that home numerous times, and somehow law enforcement just let him walk away, despite him being able to just go home.

This is so frustratingly bad, so poorly scripted, so horrendous and hard to watch. Skip it for sure.

If you'd like to see an in-depth series concentrating on a serial killer and his crimes.....keep looking. The actual content dealing with the killer and his crimes is limited. But you'll get great content like clips from low-rent "paranormal researcher" shows that have filmed at the house in question. Because, you know, some people totally talk to ghosts (collective eyeroll). Or if you'd like a lot of information on the people who own the house now, you are in luck. Find out all about the new owner, who happens to be named Robin Graves, because of course you care about that guy, right? Anyway, it isn't good.

Meaning why are they meaningfully discussing an alt offender named by the actual killer, when said killer was obviously attempting to obfuscate and retain his reputation by stating that, rather than his impending arrest, it was his failing business that was the impetus of his demise - and this documentary is problematic when you understand it's TWO independent documentaries conflated into one 4 episode show - and the woman who is producing the second doc, pretends she just learned about certain developments when we know chronologically she had prior knowledge - we KNOW that - which means this is 'produced' for effect - sadly that's unacceptable unless this is entertainment and NOT a 'true crime documentary'

I for one am disappointed but sadly not surprised.

Please don't get me wrong, the alt suspect, definitely was an accessory however that doesn't assuage or negate any culpability from the lead suspect -

Probably the worst true crime series that I have seen in quite a while.

There is absolutely no reason for this thing to run on for four episodes. It is tedious, with minimal information.

I am surprised that ABC News would produce this, or at least provide a home.

Most excruciating is the "screen time" they give to the Goodyear guy. He is obviously, completely unhinged. Yet they allow him to drone on for quite a while.

This series covers ANOTHER documentary film crew, as a large source of the material presented. That is just lame.

It is clear that the local authorities botched the original investigation, but none of those people agree to be interviewed. So we are left with secondhand material.

This is a true crime series to skip. Just Google "Fox Hollow Farm," and save yourself a few hours.
