125: Heavenly Creatures: The Murder of Honorah (Rieper) Parker

This episode explores the chilling true story that inspired Heavenly Creatures, the 1997 film based on the infamous case of Pauline Parker and Juliette Hulme.In 1950s Christchurch, New Zealand, two teenage girls formed an intense and obsessive friendship after bonding over illness, isolation, and a shared love of fantasy. Together, they created an elaborate imaginary world where they ruled as powerful figures, blurring the line between imagination and reality. As their relationship deepened, they became increasingly detached from the outside world. Sources:Anne Perry The Murder of the Century - by Peter Graham https://parkerhulme.wordpress.com/2016/08/13/the-relationship/https://www.adamabrams.com/hc/faq2/Section_7/7.4.3.htmlhttps://heavenly-creatures.com/phc_people_pauline.phphttps://medium.com/crimes-by-mr-o/this-best-selling-crime-author-was-actually-a-convicted-teenage-killer-true-crime-ee63e98d03c7wiki
