The inspiration for the five-part Amazon Original docuseries Ted Bundy: Falling for a Killer.

Ted Bundy is one of the most notorious serial killers in American history and one of the most publicized to this day. However, very rarely do we hear from the women he left behind—the ones forgotten as mere footnotes in this tragedy.

This updated, expanded edition of The Phantom Prince, Elizabeth Kendall’s 1981 memoir detailing her six-year relationship with serial killer Ted Bundy, includes a new introduction and a new afterword by the author, never-before-seen photos, and a startling new chapter from the author’s daughter, Molly, who has not previously shared her story.

The Phantom Prince chronicles Elizabeth Kendall’s intimate relationship with Ted Bundy and its eventual unraveling.

As much as has been written about Bundy, it’s remarkable to hear the perspective of people who shared their daily lives with him for years. Kendall writes in her introduction:

“In writing this book, I have gone through a wide range of feelings towards Ted.

At times, the intensity of my love for him scared me. When I thought of some of the happy times we shared, I was overwhelmed by the feeling that he should not be in jail. But by the time I finished by my writing, those feelings had turned to outrage that he had coldly, capriciously murdered all those women.”

This gripping account presents a remarkable examination of a charismatic personality that masked unimaginable darkness.

It is essential reading for anyone interested in Ted Bundy, his crimes, or the psychology of serial killers.
