Synopsis
Happy Face is a new podcast series from HowStuff Works premiering on Friday, September 28th. For Melissa Moore, 1995 was a nightmare. Thats the year the teenager learned her father, Keith Hunter Jesperson, was a serial killer. Its also the year Melissa Moores doubt spiral began: When you look like your father, and you share his intelligence and charisma, how do you know youre not a psychopath, too? Happy Face is the story of Keith Hunter Jesperson, his brutal crimes, and the cat and mouse game he played with detectives and the media. But its also the story of the horrific legacy he gifted his children. Join Melissa Moore as she investigates her fathers crimes, reckons with the past, and wades through her darkest fears as she hunts for a better future.
