The actress Wyn Reed had that powerful combination of charisma, beauty and smarts. She was such a talent that a team of movie producers couldn’t believe it when the 28 year-old Wyn agreed to play the lead — a killer—in their upcoming, small-budget, horror movie. What the filmmakers didn’t know, as they got on location, was that Wyn wasn’t really Wyn. That was all make believe. But the killer part? That was real. This original podcast series from Keith Morrison and Dateline NBC tells a story even Hollywood couldn’t have imagined.

If we're going to pay for premium content you should be giving us shows that we haven't aired on dateline. These are all just shows that I've been broken down into episodes that dateline fans probably have already seen or heard.
Every character aside from the fathers and younger brother are despicable.

What a greedy, mentally ill tribe of well educated but worthless grifters. All have educations and advanced degrees from prestigious universities and seemingly talent in writing and acting. Yet, rather than continuing to use their talents and education, they are fighting for the old lady’s property before she’s dead and as she is used and played by her daughter, older son, and granddaughter. Instead of working, they are living off of the old lady and fighting over a modest inheritance. A bunch of drug abusers, grifters, and narcissists. Kelly and her daughter, Tucker, certainly have borderline personality disorders. Awful and unlikable grifters. I hope the old lady burns thru the money and no one inherits a dime.
Love it 😍
