"SHE WANTED TO DIE!"Join dark historian Andrew Johnston of Alternative Ulstours for an illustrated Terror Talk on Ulster's own 'angel of mercy', the notorious John Bodkin Adams.
Andrew will detail the events that led to 1957's 'murder trial of the century', from the deeply religious GP's early years in Randalstown, Coleraine and Belfast to the deaths at his hand on England's 'Costa Geriatrica'.
With a potential body count of up to 400 victims - many more than even fellow medical monster Harold Shipman - the not-so-good Dr Adams may be the British Isles' worst ever serial killer.
The talk will explore the conspiracies behind his sensational trial, the possible motivations for his actions and his strange personal life.
So, come along to Manor Court Community Centre in Newtownards, take a seat and delve into the true crime case of Northern Ireland's 'Doctor Death'!
