So grab a flashlight, get close to the fire, and don’t wander off into the trees… because today, we’re exploring what happens when the wild turns deadly—and the campground becomes the crime scene. ...

The original “Florida Man” was likely a prolific serial killer. Edgar Watson killed multiple people and even a famous female outlaw. He was active from the late 1800s until 1910 and left a trail of bodies from Oklahoma to the Everglades. He used the swamps of Florida to cover up his murders and largely got away with it.
