    Ep.139 Head Scratching and Heart Pounding Stories from Nevada

    Ep.139 Head Scratching and Heart Pounding Stories from Nevada

    We are headed out west this week to Nevada! First up, Kenzie shares the mysterious cases of Jessica Foster, Jodi Brewer, Lindsay Harris, and Misty Marie Saens. These four women went missing from the Las Vegas area in the early 2000s. Three of the four women’s body parts were found off of major highways and one is still missing to this day. These cases take a bizarre twist when a man is killed during a home invasion and police suspect he may be responsible for killing anywhere from 8 to 10 people. Then, Lauren shares some classic Vegas stories and tells us about different casino heists that were both successful and unsuccessful. One of the stories she shares is about one of the only heists where a suspect got away with all the money and the police still aren’t sure how he did it. Lauren and I have many conspiracy theories we think may have occurred in these two very mysterious Nevada stories!

    Ep.138 Iowa’s Murderers and Mystics

    Ep.138 Iowa’s Murderers and Mystics

    We stay in the Midwest this week because we are talking about Iowa! First, Lauren talks about the unsolved murder of Myrtle Cook. A prominent, and strongly disliked, community figure who was shot while sitting in her living room. Detectives had a harder time eliminating suspects from the list rather than adding them. Next, Kenzie shares some stories from Iowa that are more spiritual than spooky. The Vincent House, built in the late 1800s, is said to be haunted by up to 25 different spirits! Including the previous owners. LaVona and LaVelda Rowe of Iowa City weren’t your typically identical twins. These twins claimed to have a very strong ESP connection. One that could possibly be life saving! We hope you enjoy this mystical and murderous episode!

    Ep.132 Bone-Chilling Winter Crimes

    Ep.132 Bone-Chilling Winter Crimes

    We have a special winter episode this week with two eerie winter crimes. Lauren takes us back to the winter of 1998 where a Missouri family disappears without a trace. There was no sign of Susan Brouk or her two children, and the Brouks didn’t take their winter coats or snow boots and it was below freezing. After the family is discovered murdered about half a mile from their home, investigators began the search for who could commit such a heinous crime. Kenzie covers the unsolved case of Rhonda Hinson who was murdered coming home from a company Christmas party. Investigators seem to think it's a lost cause and will never be solved, but the family is still holding out hope 40 years later. You better get warm and cozy before listening to this chilling episode!

    Ep.129 Gruesome and Gore on Thanksgiving

    We hope you’re ready for a second helping of Thanksgiving because this week is our Thanksgiving episode! First, Kenzie talks about the gorey murder of William Nelson at the hands of his new wife, Omaima Nelson. In fact, she was so new that prior to his murder, the two had only been married for 5 weeks and had met only a couple days before deciding to get married. Then, Lauren shares the tragic story of the Thanksgiving Day Disaster. This story was long lost and typically overshadowed by the college football game taking place while it occurred. Once you hear it, there is no chance you will ever forget it. We hope you have a strong stomach because this episode is not for the easily queasy!

    Ep.128 Morbid Mysteries on November 24th

    This week we are celebrating Kenzie’s birthday! In keeping with the theme, we discuss crimes that occurred on November 24th (Kenzie’s birthday). Lauren goes first with the heartbreaking story of Sabrina Aisenberg. A 5-month-old who disappears from her home in the dead of night and is never seen again. To this day, no one knows for sure what happened to baby Sabrina. Then, Kenzie talks about the most mysterious solved murder case of the 20th century. The media dubbed it the Babes of the Woods Murders to refer to a child murder case in which the bodies of three girls were found in Pennsylvania woodland. Fair warning, nothing is satisfyingly solved in this spooky special..

    Anyone with information on the disappearance of Sabrina Aisenberg is asked to contact the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office at 813-247-8200 or the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children at 1-800-843-5678.

    Ep.127 West Virginia’s Missing and Cursed

    Ep.127 West Virginia’s Missing and Cursed

    In this episode, we are headed west to the “other” Virginia, also known as West Virginia, to share two spooky stories that may make you wonder why this state is described as, “almost heaven.” Kenzie talks about a recent unsolved disappearance that was shared with her through social media with the hope of spreading awareness to a local case. Next, Lauren shares the eerie tales from Lake Shawnee Amusement Park where legend says a curse plagues the land the park was built on. Operating for more than 60 years, the park is regarded as haunted due to accidental deaths supposedly caused by the "cursed land". You may not want these country roads to take you home after listening to this episode.

    Ep.126 Mountains and Murders in Maine

    Ep.126 Mountains and Murders in Maine

    We start off “season 3” with our country’s most northeastern state, Maine! Mount Katahdin, located in Baxter State Park, is one of Maine’s natural wonders. It is Maine’s highest peak and is the northern end to the Appalachian Trail. It draws in many hikers, some of who are ill prepared for the difficult hike to the trail’s end. Lauren shares with us three daunting stories of travelers who didn’t make it to the top, some who were never seen again and one who made it out alive. In the Isle of Shoals, sits a small island known to locals as Smuttynose Island. Hundreds of years ago, settlers from Norway began making their way over to the New World for new opportunities. Kenzie tells us about a tragedy that struck Smuttynose Island and the narrow escape of one lucky soul. Our hearts go out to the people of Maine in the wake of another preventable mass shooting.

    Ep.125 Spooky Spots in Connecticut

    Ep.125 Spooky Spots in Connecticut

    We are back with our regularly scheduled programming with Connecticut! This week, Kenzie shares all the strange and bizarre structures throughout Boothe Memorial Park. Built by the Boothe brothers over the course of 40 years, the park contains many architectural feats, including a 44-sided Blacksmith Shop, and possibly spirits from the past! Then, Lauren tells us about Dudleytown, an abandoned settlement located in an area called Dark Entry Forest. Many believe this town is haunted by a curse bestowed upon the descendants of Edmund Dudley. The curse is said to have followed the family to America from across the Atlantic in England. Spooky season may be over, but that won’t stop us from talking about spooky places!

    Ep.124 Close Encounters of the Serial Kind

    We wrap up the spooky season with a creepy, hair-raising, ghostly, eerie, chilling, and all other synonyms for scary, episode. This week, we dive into the shadowy realm of serial killers. Lauren takes us on a tour of ten bars across the United States, which were notorious haunts for infamous serial killers like Ted Bundy and Charles Manson. Each bar comes with a story about its sinister patreon(s), their disturbing crimes, and how their spirits still haunt the famed establishments. Then, Kenzie shares the unsettling truth that an average person will unknowingly pass by 16 (or 36) murderers in their lifetime. You’ll hear the petrifying accounts of people’s close calls and near misses with infamous serial killers. This episode will undoubtedly leave you questioning just how well you truly know your neighbors...
