On Halloween night in 1984, a pregnant woman named Doreen Erbert heard a knock on her door. It was the Big Bad Wolf. That night one of the most vicious crimes to ever hit San Jose, CA would occur. Who was that masked intruder that tore a loving family apart? This week on Residue I will tell the scariest, most heartbreaking Halloween true story that you’ve ever heard. Never answer the door for a stranger. Even on Halloween.
