About this listen

Step into the dark alleys and quiet apartments of Mexico City, where danger hides behind a friendly smile. The Lady Behind the Mask: Juana Barraza’s Deadly Secret reveals the chilling true story of Juana Barraza, a former professional wrestler who became one of Mexico’s most feared female serial killers. Posing as a kind-hearted government worker, she gained the trust of elderly women—then strangled them with cords and stockings, leaving a city in terror.

But her crimes weren’t random. Haunted by a childhood of abuse and betrayal, Barraza’s murders were deeply personal, a twisted form of vengeance against women who reminded her of her past pain. Arrested in 2006, she left behind a trail of fear, confusion, and unanswered questions.

Dive into a world of deception, dark psychology, and shocking secrets. This episode is cinematic, emotionally charged, and suspenseful, perfect for true crime fans who crave mystery, drama, and edge-of-your-seat storytelling.
