The show is based on Keeneās 2010 memoir, In with the Devil, which recounts his very real experience with Hall, a man who may be responsible for more than 40 murders.
But just who is Larry Hall? Unlike other serial killers like Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer, the exact details of Hallās life and crimes havenāt been widely publicized despite the fact that he may be one of the most prolific serial killers in American history.
Although Hall admitted to killing dozens of women and girls throughout the 1980s and ā90s, he immediately recanted his confession. He was sentenced to life in prison for kidnapping a 15-year-old in 1993, but he was never charged with her murder ā or the murders of any of his other potential victims.
Still, the details about Larry Hallās life that have been made public paint a picture of a highly disturbed man capable of committing some of the most heinous acts imaginable.
Larry Dewayne Hall and his twin brother Gary were born on Dec. 11, 1962, in Wabash, Indiana. The two boys were monochorionic twins, meaning they shared a placenta. Unfortunately for Hall, his brother received the majority of the nutrients and oxygen in the womb, so newborn Larry was rushed to the neonatal intensive care unit soon after he was born.
Because of the medical issues surrounding his development and birth, Larry Hall suffered from cognitive delays.
His peers made fun of him for his speech impediment and the fact that he wet his bed well into childhood.
