Happy Pride Month Cryptic Cuties!! It's halfway through our hiatus and we didn't want to leave you hanging without a nod to the summer gay days!! AKA the happiest month of the year :)

So here's a taste of the perfect Pride month show for true crime lovers- Beyond the Rainbow! Host CJ is cute, quirky and full of frightful facts for you! So sit back and listen to some stories of the LGBTQ+, she tells one or two an episode if there's a true crime quickie on the docket. But in a way quicker way than our two co-hosts ever could! so it's very bingeable, if we say so ourselves. 

Here we have some "clips" of stylists stories of murder and hate crimes. Listener discretion is advised.

We can hardly believe this is episode 150 of our little baby pod! We want to thank you to all our listeners past and present (and hopefully future lol)!

So to celebrate we did something different and served up some Patreon-style segments that we think you will love! First up is a faceoff of 2 Truths/1 Lie: C&C style, aka scary stories!!

And then we and our special guest have fun guessing some famous killers in a top-ten listicle, as well as a couple other crime/conspiracy themed lists, so come play a game with us!

Too Jigsaw? Sorry, eh, we love our creepy movies! Don't forget, we will be back in July with fresh stories and you can head on over to Patreon.com/castlesandcryptids if you enjoyed this and want more cryptic content!

Until we chat again, Keep it Cryptic!!

So how many celebrities have REALLY died and been cloned/portrayed by a body double/faked their death? We wanna know what's the kookiest celeb conspiracy, ccording to the internet. Or pre-internet, even! Climb aboard this crazy train, and would the real slim shady please stand the hell up already?!

Kelsey wants to hold our hand through two of probably the weirdest and most prevalent Beatles conspiracies! To top off the round of rumors, Alanna serves up a smattering of wild CIA plots, True Crime "theories", and attack of the cloned rappers!

Don't forget to recommend us to a friend so we can get a little famous, but maybe not so famous that the rumors start about our untimely deaths! :P

And until next time, Keep it Cryptic!

Ahoy cryptic cuties! This week we come bearing tales of two voyages that suddenly went very wrong. Kelsey covers the disappearance of Annette Mizener, a passenger aboard a carnival cruise in 2004 who mysteriously went overboard.

Alanna wraps things up with the Hawks, a lovely retired couple who just wanted to sell their yacht so they could spend more time with their grandchildren, a decision that would end up costing them everything.

Stay safe if you find yourself out on the open ocean (maybe bring a flare gun and a lifejacket?) and until next time keep it cryptic.

Abandoned, lonely, often forlorn, how can places seem so sad and neglected? What makes a ghost town a ghost town?

We explore some lost settlements and what happened to them, really. Sometimes it's a loss of income and prosperity, othertimes, something more destructive and very final. Whether the town died out, pardon the pun, or came to a catastrophic end, it's an tale worth telling and we say, put on your safety goggles and your hiking boots!

Hey cryptic cuties, you know we had to take advantage of the month of May to cover some airplane crimes.

Kelsey tells the story of Japan Air Lines Flight 123, when a typical trip turns into a fight to keep an uncontrollable plane in the air and save the lives of hundreds aboard. Alanna closes out the ep with Canadian Airlines Flight 108, and how investigations into its demise lead to a cowardly husband and his crazy plot to escape his life.

It's a wild ride this week, if your oxygen mask deploys make sure you put it on yourself first before helping others, and until next time, keep it cryptic!

This week, we had fun finding some other amazing animals, they may not all be psychic wonder horses, but damn are they wonderful!!

Kelsey keeps us up with the Koko shenanigans, you know like the Kardashians? Ok it's a stretch, but Koko reaches new heights in communication and very human traits, like ...being horny?? She's an enigma, like all of us!

To cap it off, Alanna tells some war stories of animal heros, like Unsinkable Sam, and two very, very good doggos.

Ok, we could have called this episode a pseudoscience and a psychic horse, but I liked the alliteration so there we are. We love any fringe science, powerwe don't quite understand and stories about wild history with a dash of animal hijinks. This one has it all!

Hope you enjoy, and, hey(or should I say neigh?), let us know, we aren't psychic! So drop us a rating and refer a friend! Keep it Cryptic!
