Shoppers go mad for new Crime Monthly magazine featuring stories on Ted Bundy and Madeleine McCann

While it's always been something that's interested plenty of people, there's been a big boom in the popularity of true crime this year.

You could argue that one of the main protagonists for this is Netflix.

Over the past few months the streaming service has given viewers a number of gripping documentaries including the Ted Bundy Tapes, the much talked about Abducted in Plain Sight and Dirty John: The Dirty Truth , the real-life story behind the true crime drama which has proved a massive hit.

Following in their footsteps, the eight part series The Disappearance of Madeleine McCann hit the streaming service in March to a huge reaction.

And the investigation into the disappearance of the three year old during a family holiday to Portugal is one of the cover stories of a new magazine that has been flying off the shelves and generated a big buzz on social media.

Now on it's second issue, Crime is priced £2.99 and other teasers on what's inside include Jill Dando, Ted Bundy and the rise in school shootings.

And capitalising on the huge appetite for true crime films - including the Ted Bundy Netflix film release date confirmed: Zac Efron stars as killer in anticipated movie - dramas and documentaries on the small screen, there's even a Crime TV Guide.

A post about the Crime magazine being on sale at Tesco had gathered close to 4,000 comments at the time of writing.
