Between You, Me, and the Dead

This week Skyla steps into Rayna’s territory and tells a couple of true crime stories with a creepy demonic twist. We explore two cases of what was believed to possibly be demonic possession that ended in the tragic deaths of the possessed, Kennedy Ife and Vilma Trujillo. Two cases that are so completely different, but also so devastatingly similar.

This week's story takes place in a wealthy Connecticut neighborhood. Martha Moxley wanted to participate in “Mischief Night,” and unfortunately this turned out to be a deadly mistake.

This week we were in the mood to read some people’s true spooky stories, and because this is our podcast we did. Maybe it’s good that neither of us has kids yet, because too many people’s kids are seeing scary stuff and we are not okay with it.
