What do you get when you cross a morgue attendant with a Satanist, a bad artist, and a 90s French internet hookup? A cannibal with a YouTube following, apparently.

Join Dee and Isla as we plunge fang-first into the gore-splattered legacy of Nicolas Claux, the Vampire of Paris, a convicted murderer, confessed cannibal, corpse desecrator, and, somehow, international curator.

It all started with a seemingly innocent visit to a Serial Killer Exhibition in London, until one donor’s name kept creeping up like a resurrected corpse.

Trigger warnings galore: corpses, cannibalism, blood-drinking, grave desecration, and very, very bad art. (Seriously. We Googled it. It’s awful.)

📣 CALL TO ACTION: Send us your tattoos for judgement for this week’s Ink-Quisition!

🖤 #TrueCrimeEthics #InkQuisition #VampireOfParis

Welcome to Season 5 — and say hello to your new co-host Isla from Criminally Good Books in York!

In this jam-packed first episode, Dee and Isla go full-blown true crime + emotional carnage as they cover the terrifying 1999 bombing spree that shook London to its core. But first, a few very important announcements:

🧡 Emma has stepped back from co-hosting (she’s still a Switchblade Sister for life and our legal consultant on speed dial)

📚 Isla from Criminally Good Books has officially joined the team, and frankly, it’s about time

🎄 Yes, Isla still has Christmas decorations up in June

🐷 Dee may or may not have tattooed a Guinea pig-adjacent animal from South Africa on her body

We dive into the horrifying attacks carried out by neo-Nazi David Copeland, who tried to start a race war using nail bombs left in Brixton, Brick Lane, and Soho, targeting Black communities, Bangladeshi Londoners, and the LGBTQ+ community in rapid succession. It’s grim, it’s infuriating, and it’s an important reminder of how easily hate spreads if left unchecked.

🔪 Bonus Segment: The Ink-Quisition We judge the Sugarbabes’ autographs, tattooed permanently on a heavy metal musician’s body.

Trigger Warnings: Bombings, neo-Nazism, racism, homophobia, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, and strong language (sorry Isla’s mum).

In this special bonus episode of the Switchblade Sisters Social Club, co-hosts Dee and Emma address Emma's departure from the podcast. As Emma takes a step back, they introduce Isla of Criminally Good Books, the new co-host for Season 5. But before Emma chips off, we discuss our visit to the Moholoholo Animal Rehab Center, their charitable donation, and their encounter with the infamous honey badger, Stoffel. We look into Stoffel's clever and relentless escapades, his history as an escape artist, and the challenges of containing such a determined animal.

A brand-new episode of Switchblade Sisters Social Club just dropped, and this one is extra twisted. This week, Dee and Emma are diving into the case of Dennis Rader, aka BTK – the serial killer whose ego was as big as his incompetence. If you’ve ever wondered how NOT to get away with murder (or how a family man can have a secret life that is way too secret), this one’s for you.

And because we can’t just talk about horrifying crimes, we’re also launching something fun for Season 5—a brand-new end segment called The Ink-Quisition! That’s right: you send in your tattoos, and we judge them mercilessly (or admire them, if you happen to have good taste). Whether it’s a regrettable ex’s name, a misspelled quote, or an absolute masterpiece, we want to see it. Send your ink our way, and we’ll give it the respect (or roast) it deserves.

Sister Mariam Soulakiotis’ Deadly Cult isnot your typical nun story. No warm-hearted singing in the Alps. No friendly penguin-waddling habits. Justpure, unholy terror.

This so-called “holy” woman took “blind faith” to a whole new level—and by that, we meanfraud, abuse, imprisonment, and murder.

If you thought convent life was all about peaceful prayer and fresh-baked bread, well…guess again.

Listen to the new episode now—if you dare. And maybe light a candle… but, like, not for her.

Stay Creepy,Dee & EmmaSwitchblade Sisters Social Club 💀🎙️

We hope you're emotionally stable today because…this one is ROUGH.

Our latest episode coversRichard Chase, the Vampire of Sacramento, and let’s just say if you were hoping for a cozy crime about an eccentric jewel thief,this ain’t it. It’s grim. It’s gruesome. It’s the kind of case that makes you reconsider drinking anything red for a while. Even wine.

🚨All. The. Trigger. Warnings. Apply. 🚨

If you’re the kind of person who listens to true crime and mutters “oh, that’s nottoo bad” … well, buckle up. This one will test your limits.

But don’t worry—we know how to bring you back from the abyss!

Introducing: The Ink-Quisition!

Season 5 will feature a brand-new,palette-cleansing end-segment where we judgeyour tattoos instead of society’s worst criminals.

✨Got a tattoo with a deep, profound meaning? We’ll still find a way to roast it. 🖤Got a tattoo you regret? We will validate your pain. 😬Got a tattoo with NO meaning? We’ll make one up for you.

Submit your inkNOW and secure your place in tattoo history (or infamy).

Listen to the new episode now—if you dare. And maybe keep a nightlight on afterward.

Stay creepy,Dee & Emma Switchblade Sisters Social Club 💀🎙️

P.S. If you have a vampire bite tattoo, we’re legally obligated to discuss it.

Ever wondered what would happen if Deadpool was real but way less charming and way more terrifying? Well, this week on Switchblade Sisters Social Club, we’re diving into the bizarre case of Wade Wilson, the Deadpool Killer—a guy who thought his supervillain nickname would make up for, you know, being a murderer. Spoiler: It didn’t.

In this episode, Dee and Emma break down Wilson’s messy crime spree.

Grab your crab cakes (or a less crime-associated snack), and hit play now.
