Synopsis

They arrive alive. They leave dead. But first, they give me their confessions.These are the deathbed confessions of my patients.This one you're about to listen to is for PATIENT #974. He's known on my ward as Ken (his partner was Barbie)and they're the Asylum's very own Bonny and Clyde.Fans of Stephen King, Joe Hill and like to read books like The Bird Box, The Haunting and can't get enough stories about serial killers are going to enjoy reading the deathbed confessions from The Asylum.My name is Jack Steen and for those who arrive on my 'death' ward at the Asylum, I'm the last face many will see before they die. I am the night nurse at the Asylum for the Criminally Insane.  Most of my patients are serial killers and mass murderers and they know me as the Angel of Death. When they come onto my floor, I offer a deal: tell me their story, their 'untold' story that hasn't been read about in the news, sensationalized by media or cataloged in a ridiculous number of academic papers. I want the real story - the one they haven't old anyone. Some of these killers have never confessed to their crimes, some kept certain information to themselves...those are the stories I want.If they give them to me, I'll make their death...easier. They're already dying, that's why they're now my patients. If they play nice, I can make their death less painful. But only if they play nice and tell me their confessions.The majority of these killers are expert manipulators. I realize they could be playing me and messing with my head. It's a chance I'm willing to take.And now...they might just be playing with yours too.
Note: these are individual confessions found in The Asylum Confession books.
