The Wonderland Gang: Drugs, Porn, And Unsolved Murders

Oddity Shop

Welcome to The Oddity Shop, Where the Bizarre is Always on Sale! This week in the shop, Kara is talking all about LA's Notorious Wonderland Gang.
Strap in, because we're taking you back to the neon haze of 1980s LA, where the Wonderland gang and John Holmes ruled the night with a cocktail of crime, drugs, and betrayal. The saga of Ron Launius and his band of misfits reads like a movie script! Their tales of hedonism and addiction serve as stark reminders of what life could be like in California in the 80s.
We'll untangle the web of complicated relationships and the tragic consequences that followed, all while pondering the ethical tightrope walked when loyalty to friends collides with self-preservation.
Our journey through the seedy underbelly culminates in the chilling Wonderland murders and the trials that sent shockwaves through the city. With a narrative steeped in the macabre, we paint a vivid picture of the crime scene and the enigma surrounding John Holmes' and Eddie Nash's involvement.
