Now that you're finished with the horror of Thanksgiving (turkey), join us as we examine a real life horror, straight out of Illinois.
The enfield horror is a cryptid seen in the southern part of Illinois beginning on April 25, 1973. Reports started from a single source, Henry McDaniel, who heard scratching on his door in the evening around 9:30. Upon closer investigation, McDaniel found a strange creature that hissed like a wild cat, was 4.5 feet tall and gray, wih three legs, two short arms, and big pink eyes. Later, additional witnesses would claim to have seen the cryptid and the event actually served as a case study for social contagion in an academic paper written 5 years later.

Dennis Nilsen was a serial killer active from 1978-1983. During that time, he preyed on young men and boys in London, murdering at least 12, but potentially as many as 16. All of his murders were committed at one of two homes where he lived. Nilsen was known to strangle his victims, and sometimes drown them, before ritualistically bathing them and keeping them in his home for periods of time. When he finished with them he’d burn their bodies and flush them down the toilet. Nilsen was caught in 1983. Nilsen was also known as the Kindly Killer and the Muswell Hill Murderer.

Welcome to the first of two updates we’re publishing this week covering stories we’ve covered over the past couple of years. Today’s updatisode provides current standings of the murders of Laci and Conner Peterson.
We're covering the tragic incident at Dyatlov Pass that occurred in the Ural Mountains in 1959 leaving 9 young adventurers dead. The group was comprised of mostly students from the Ural Polytechnical Institute. What was meant to be a three week trek to help them earn the next higher certification for their hiking and outdoors careers ended up being their last in a confusing tragedy that still has people questioning exactly what happened on that mountaintop all those years ago.
Bourbon tasting until 20m in- Story begins at around the 20m mark.
Today's episode is brought to you by Broken Barrel Whiskey. Shout out to Seth Benheim and his team for the sample bottles he sent over, we're excited to review them over the next few episodes and really enjoyed the bottle of 116 proof we tried at the beginning of this episode.
