The Monster With 21 Faces | Full Unsolved True Crime Documentary

The Monster With 21 Faces, the mysterious criminal group behind the infamous Glico-Morinaga case, terrorised Japan throughout the 1980s. In 1980s Japan, a group of unidentified criminals calling themselves “The Monster With 21 Faces” launched a bizarre and terrifying crime spree that captivated the entire nation. Known collectively as the Glico-Morinaga Case, their crimes included abducting company executives, threatening to poison candy across Japan, and extorting some of the country’s biggest confectionery brands. They sent dozens of taunting letters to police and the press, alternating between threats, mockery, and unsettling moral statements, making the group feel more like characters from a thriller than real-life criminals. Strangely, despite their threats of mass poisoning and corporate destruction, The Monster repeatedly claimed they didn’t wish to harm innocent people. Their motives were contradictory, their identities unknown, and their tactics unlike anything seen before or since in Japanese criminal history. More than forty years later, the case remains one of Japan’s most perplexing unsolved mysteries - a blend of extortion, performance, misdirection, and psychological warfare that continues to puzzle investigators and true-crime researchers alike. In this deep-dive documentary, we explore every twist, theory, and unanswered question behind The Monster With 21 Faces... and whether this legendary cold case will ever be solved. ➡️ Patreon:   / themysteryabyss   ➡️ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7HlSTDq... #truecrime #truecrimepodcast #truecrimecommunity #crime #documentary
