Ep 13: The Man in Black - Peter Moore

In the mid-1990s, North Wales felt safe — small towns, quiet roads, and coastal pubs that shut before midnight. But behind the flicker of old cinema screens, one man was turning his obsession with horror into something real.
Peter Moore was known as “The Man in Black” — a sharp-dressed showman who owned small picture houses across the region. By night, he roamed the same roads his audiences drove home on. Between September and December 1995, four men were murdered in a campaign of violence that shocked Wales to its core.
This episode traces how a local businessman became one of Britain’s most chilling serial killers — from the façade of respectability to the darkness that hid beneath it.
