Five Star Gift Ideas

For a dad who enjoys watching documentaries about true crime, there are several meaningful and personal gift ideas that you can consider for Father's Day. These gifts will not only align with his interest but also show your thoughtfulness and consideration for his preferences. Here are a few suggestions:

1. True Crime Books: Consider gifting your dad a compelling true crime book or a collection of true crime stories. This will allow him to further explore his interest in the subject and indulge in detailed narratives that may not be covered in documentaries. You can choose from popular books like "In Cold Blood" by Truman Capote or "The Devil in the White City" by Erik Larson.

2. Subscription to a True Crime Magazine: Keep your dad updated on the latest true crime stories by subscribing him to a high-quality true crime magazine. There are several options to choose from, such as "True Crime Magazine," "Criminal Minds," or "The Lineup." This subscription will ensure that he receives engaging articles, interviews, and insights about true crime regularly.

3. True Crime Documentary DVDs: While your dad may already enjoy watching true crime documentaries, surprise him with a collection of DVDs featuring his favorite crime stories or a selection of critically acclaimed documentaries. This way, he can watch them at his convenience, even without an internet connection. You can curate a personalized DVD set comprising documentaries like "Making a Murderer," "The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst," or "The Staircase."

4. True Crime Podcasts: If your dad loves multitasking or enjoys listening to stories while driving or during his daily routine, introducing him to true crime podcasts can be a great idea. There are numerous fascinating true crime podcasts available, such as "Serial," "My Favorite Murder," or "Criminal." Consider gifting him a subscription to a podcast platform or a prepaid card that he can use to access his preferred podcasts.

5. Crime Scene Investigation Kit: If your dad has a passion for true crime and enjoys solving mysteries, you can surprise him with a crime scene investigation kit. These kits are available online and often include forensic tools, fingerprinting sets, evidence collection materials, and manuals. This unique gift will provide your dad with an interactive experience to further engage with his interest and indulge in hands-on investigative activities.

6. Personalized True Crime Artwork: Commissioning a custom-made artwork related to true crime can be a thoughtful and personalized gift for your dad. You can hire a skilled artist to create an original piece inspired by his favorite true crime stories, incorporating elements like crime scene imagery, detective icons, or quotes from infamous cases. This artwork can be displayed in his study or any other relevant space, showcasing his interest proudly.

Remember, the key to a meaningful and personal gift is to consider your dad's preferences and interests. By choosing a gift that aligns with his love for true crime documentaries, you can indulge his curiosity and provide him with hours of entertainment and engagement.

Or you can get him a star map with the date when he welcomed you in this world.
