Speaker 1: Please welcome to the stage, Ed Hedges.
Speaker 2: My name is Ed. Everyone said hello. Ed from a
Speaker 2: very rural background myself. My dad is a farmer and
Speaker 2: my mom is a cousin. So like it's not like
Speaker 2: not loads going on.
Speaker 1: Ed Hedges, a slender, floppy haired up and comer stands
Speaker 1: on the stage. He was captivating and quirky and had
Speaker 1: the audience eating out of his hand. And then the
Speaker 1: whole night took a turn.
Speaker 2: On the twenty second of July twenty fifteen, I woke
Speaker 2: up to that noise coming from my front door. That
Speaker 2: was the loudest thing I've ever heard in my life.
Speaker 2: And at the end of my bed, staring out of
Speaker 2: my window, there is someone standing. She is terrified, and
Speaker 2: she says, whatever you do, do not turn on the lights.
Speaker 1: Questioned the death of a woman and a man.
Speaker 2: The lifeless body slumped on the sofa and covered in
Speaker 2: her own congealed.
Speaker 3: Also repeatedly stabbed and caused a fatal head injury at
Speaker 3: least day forty one stab wounds to the head, neck
Speaker 3: and torso plus fourteen blunt force injuries and defensive wounds.
Speaker 2: Well twenty second of July twenty fifteen, between eleven and
Speaker 2: twelve o'clock at night. Twenty three year old man had
Speaker 2: killed his family and then he came to my house.
Speaker 1: I was shocked, and so was the audience. This can't
Speaker 1: be true, but I had to find out more. The
Speaker 1: mystery would take me to a small village outside of
Speaker 1: London and the murders. They didn't stop there.

Speaker 2: it's a story and it's about the scariest night of
