On February 9th, 2004, 21 year college student Maura Murray made a series of decisions that have haunted, puzzled, and captivated folks the world over for the past 20 years. Maura sent off an email informing her college professors that she would be out of town due to a death in her family, despite no such death having occurred. She packed up her car, withdrew money from an ATM, and headed north. Where was she headed and what was her plan? We may never know. In rural New Hampshire, Maura lost control of her vehicle and crashed into a snowbank. By the time officers arrived on the scene, her car was locked and Maura was nowhere to be found. Thus begins one of this country's most confounding unsolved mysteries. This week we'll unpack the strange mystery of Maura's disappearance and the even stranger circles of websleuths who have spent decades poring over every single detail. Will we solve this decades-old true crime conundrum? Tune in to find out!

Scary movie night has been an integral part of Lisey and Halee’s relationship since its conception. What better way to celebrate spooky season than to bring you in on our most favorite tradition? Tonight we’ll uncover the haunting stories that inspired some of our favorite horror flicks. We’ll dig into the real life haunting that inspired Steven Spielberg’s classic, Poltergeist. We’ll knock on the door of room 217 at the Stanley Hotel, where Stephen King dreamed up his outline for The Shining. Of course, scary movie night would not be complete without diving into one of the highest grossing horror films of all time, The Exorcist. Each film created its own cultural phenomenon and will forever live on in cinema history. We’ll share spooky facts about production that will have your heads spinning and reminisce about our favorite (and least favorite) scenes. Grab your popcorn and a box of candy because this one’s a scream. Happy Haunting!

Dearest coven, our newest spooky season tradition continues this week with a deep dive into our nation's motorways. Doesn't sound too creepy at first, but it turns out danger and ghouls are lurking at practically every corner out there. From the Devil's Highway in the south west, to a forested stretch of road once dubbed the 'graveyard for truckers' in the north east, we'll travel all around the country finding the most haunted roads. There are goat men, melon heads, skinwalkers, hellhounds, and all other manner of scary creatures out there just waiting for you. So the next time you find yourself on a deserted stretch of road late at night, lock your doors and say your prayers that you make it home safe. This one's an episode you may want to listen to from the safety of your own comfy couch, folks! Happy Haunting!

Spooky season is in full swing, witches, and what better way to celebrate than with a terrifyingly true ghost story. In the late 70s, a family of five in Enfield, England would experience one of the most prolific ghost encounters ever documented. Knocking could be heard throughout the house. Marbles were thrown from unseen hands. Furniture was moved across the room, and dozens of people were there to witness it. The haunting centered around Margaret and Janet Hodgson, both going through puberty, and it continued to escalate for the next two years. Janet started speaking in a different voice. She’d levitate from her bed and even claimed to move through walls. Was it ghosts? Or was it the results of a fractured family, with a young girl seeking attention? Maybe a little bit of both… Tune in to decide for yourself! Happy haunting!

Spooky season is upon us! And we're celebrating in style. It just didn't seem right to devote two entire episodes to news during the most special month of October, so instead, we're embarking on a new mini-series celebrating the best haunts from all 50 states. We're kicking things off in California, whose list of spooky specters is as long as the state is large. We'll explore deadly waters surrounding the Point Sur Lighthouse, peek behind closed doors at the Brookdale Lodge and uncover the mysteries of Bodie State Historic Park, aka the ghost town of our dreams. Of course, no California ghost tour would be complete without a stop at the infamous Alcatraz, where jail cells slam shut and glowing red eyes follow you in the dark. There's no shortage of haunts on tonight's episode, so grab your wine, light your candle and prepare to be scared! Happy haunting!

In 1845, a crew of 134 men set out in search of the elusive Northwest Passage, hoping to find a shortcut between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Armed with thousands of canned goods, gallons of lemon juice and a passion for adventure, they set forth on the HMS Terror and Erebus, ready for a taste of glory. Instead, they found themselves stuck at sea for more than three years, their ships encased in thick, unforgiving ice. When it refused to thaw in 1848, the men abandoned ship and headed out on foot in the hopes they'd find help and a way home. And then... they seemingly disappeared. It would take years before any trace of the men was found, and what was discovered were simply sun bleached bones, scattered in the wind. Today, much of the failed Franklin expedition remains a mystery, but a few clues have been realized, painting a grisly picture for the crew who gave their lives in pursuit of discovery. We'll discuss possible theories, dive into AMC's miniseries "The Terror" and uncover the shocking details that make this 140-year-old mystery so haunting. Elise can't get this one out of her head, and perhaps you won't be able to either. Northwest Passage cruise, anyone? Happy Haunting!

Dearest coven, by now you've probably learned to expect the unexpected on this podcast. That lesson will serve you especially well this week, as we cover all kinds of weirdness. Halee recounts her awkward grad school dating life, there are 8 year olds driving SUVs, and the Titanic is probably haunted. You'll hear our hot takes on affirmative action, we'll talk UFOs in Mexico and China, and get back into real estate drama- we just can't stay away! That's not even an exhaustive list of everything we're bringing this week.. because friends, you just never know what you're going to hear on Easy Bake Coven! Tune in and enjoy!
Happy Haunting!

On June 4th, 2004, Marvin Heemeyer embarked on a rampage in his fortified Komatsu bulldozer that would forever change the town of Granby, CO. But before Killdozer, there was Marvin the welder, who loved snowmobiling and being outdoors. How did this seemingly normal man go from well-loved community member to the manifesto spouting anti-government character in the headlines? This week we'll explore the origin of this sad and shocking story, and ask ourselves the important and difficult questions. Was Marv a folk hero or a lunatic? Is it possible he was a bit of both? You know we have strong opinions and we aren't afraid to share them! Tune in and form your own opinion about Marv and this wild story!
Happy Haunting!

Oh coven, you're in for such a treat this week. You may have figured out last week from our subtle hints and spooky foreshadowing that we're bringing back a tried and true favorite- spooky hour! We finally tackle one of our shared obsessions... glitches in the matrix. Have you ever lost time that you couldn't account for? Had a strange occurrence that you just couldn't explain? Sometimes the answer is simpler than we might realize- we actually live in a simulation and sometimes there are errors in the code. There really isn't any better explanation for the stories we're sharing this week! We scoured the internet to find our favorite glitch in the matrix stories and can't wait to share them with you. Listen with your feet firmly planted on the ground or you may get sucked into this rabbit hole, folks! 
Happy Haunting!
