Pocatello, ID. September 22, 2006. 16-year-old high school student Cassie Jo Stoddart is house-sitting for family members who don’t want to leave their new dream home unoccupied while they’re away.

She has a couple of friends come over to watch a movie, along with her boyfriend. Soon enough, the friends leave, followed by her boyfriend, and that’s when the nightmare begins.

Cassie would be terrorized by a pair of masked killers waiting inside the house, two people who modeled their approach using their love of horror movies, particularly the film Scream, for reference. But who were these tag-team killers, and why did they really do it?

Join host Ryan Kraus for a psychological excursion through the horrifying landscape of teens looking for love they can’t find, as exhibited in the mental illness displayed by murderers Torey Adamcik and Brian Draper.

Where will the case go from here? Will it ever be solved? 

In October 1978, horror movie audiences were introduced to a new killer, Michael Myers, who dressed in blue with his collar up, carried a knife, and covered his face with a white mask. In February 2017, an eerily familiar figure appeared on the Monon High Bridge in Delphi, IN, a killer dressed in blue with his collar up, one who was carrying a knife, and seemingly had some sort of white scarf or mask that had previously covered his face. Is it just a coincidence, or do these men have more in common than we ever realized?

Are they truly the embodiment of the devil, in the form of the antichrist? Join host Ryan Kraus for part 6 of the Delphi Murders as we go down the hill into the abyss to find the truth about boys who struggle to become men by emotionally exorcising their demons.   

Why did law enforcement try to implore empathy from the suspect by mentioning The Shack at the 2019 Delphi press conference? Who is the mystery man they’re addressing?

They said he could be in the room.

Was he?
