They called him the Candyman. But what he gave wasn’t sweet—it was death.
Between 1970 and 1973, nearly thirty boys vanished from the streets of Houston, Texas. Most were never reported missing. Others were dismissed as runaways. Behind it all was Dean Corll—a man known for passing out candy to neighborhood kids. But inside his quiet home, he was building one of the most horrifying crime scenes in American history.
With help from two teenage accomplices, Corll lured, tortured, and murdered dozens of boys in a spree so gruesome, even seasoned detectives struggled to comprehend it. When the killings finally ended, it wasn’t law enforcement that stopped him—it was one of his own.
The Candyman Killer: The True Story Behind Dean Corll and the Houston Mass Murders peels back the curtain on a case the city tried to forget. Drawing on court records, first-hand interviews, and newly uncovered details, author Kyle Cindelshade delivers an unflinching account of how evil hides in plain sight—and how justice came far too late for too many.
Raw. Disturbing. Necessary. This is not just a story about a serial killer. It’s a warning. A reckoning. And a tribute to the boys the world forgot.
