Francisco de Assis Pereira: The Park Maniac Who Turned Dreams Into Death

In this chilling 26-minute episode of Among Monsters, host Damien Vale delves into the horrifying crimes of Francisco de Assis Pereira, a seemingly charming man who lured young women with promises of modeling careers—only to lead them into the woods of São Paulo’s Parque do Estado and brutally murder them. Known as The Park Maniac, Pereira used deceit, control, and sadistic violence to trap his victims, ultimately confessing to the rape and murder of at least eleven women. This episode explores how ambition and trust became tools of a predator, the chilling investigation that uncovered a serial killer’s graveyard, and how his manipulative persona masked a calculating sadist. A haunting look at how one man weaponized fantasy… and left only silence behind.
