TW/CW: mental health, torture, SA, SW

In Nigeria, people were going missing. A group of motorcycle taxi drivers organized a search and found a derelict building deep in the Ibadan Forest. Inside, were the remains of more than 50 people. The living were emaciated and so traumatized, they couldn't speak. Some say it's a serial killer, some say it's ritual sacrifice or human trafficking. But it might go much deeper and darker than that.

In May of 2008, 19 year old college student Brandon Swanson was celebrating the end of the semester with friends before driving home to his parents' house 30 minutes from campus. He left just after midnight. At nearly 2am, he called his parents to come pick him up because he'd swerved into a ditch and couldn't get his car out. At 3:35AM, Brandon would go missing without a trace. Join us as we discuss this mind bending case.

Lillian is an absolute ding dong and uploaded the wrong audio file! Apologies!

In August of 1993 a group of hikers led by Lyudmilla Korovina took six of her wilderness survival and hiking students up to the Khamar Daban Ridge in southern Siberia.  Of the seven people that went up the to the ridge, only one returned. And her story of what happened is absolutely gut wrenching and bone chilling. This incident, though not as well known, shares many similarities with the Dyatlov Pass incident. Conspiracies and theories abound! Join us as we discuss this terrifying case.

tw/cw: Mention of SA, graphic depiction of injuries

He'd had a bit of a troubled earlier childhood, but was doing well when he was attacked by his school mates. This crime is so brutal and heartbreaking. Join us as we honor Michael Moss.
