Episode description
In May of 2010, a 23-year-old woman went missing after meeting at a client’s house on Long Island. Her last known interaction can be heard on a strange and eerie 911 call that was over 20 minutes long. The woman’s body was discovered 19 months after she disappeared on a beach in the neighborhood from which she vanished. But she was not alone. Also buried on the beach were ten other bodies, all of which are believed to have been claimed by the prolific Long Island Serial Killer. This is the story of Shannan Gilbert.
