Macabre : Dark History
A quiet boy with a curious mind, Graham Young’s fascination with chemistry would take a sinister turn. Known later as The Teacup Poisoner , his story is one of obsession, manipulation, and a chilling trail of mystery that left authorities—and victims—staggered. In this episode of MACABRE: A Dark History Podcast , we sip into the unnerving case of a killer who turned tea time into terror. Just how far can curiosity go before it becomes deadly?
