Island Serial Killer: Tenerife, Spain

Why are so many people disappearing and turning up murdered on Tenerife, the popular vacation island?
Could a serial killer be responsible?
Since the start of 2024, at least 12 people have vanished from Tenerife and the nearby island of La Gomera. In total, 28 individuals have gone missing under mysterious circumstances on Tenerife since 2015 — many of them tourists.
Are these disappearances the result of unfortunate accidents in the island's rugged terrain, or is there something far more sinister at play?
Join us as we delve into the mystery surrounding Tenerife, uncovering the shadows that lurk beneath this picturesque paradise, and how to stay alive on vacation.
