NOTE: As one of our first episodes, the quality of our recording methods wasn't as advanced and we had only a basic knowledge of making a podcast. Many of the reviews don't take that into consideration. If you're just starting out with our show, please try one of our later episodes before writing a nasty review.

The legend of Cropsey has been told around many campfires in the New England area as a warning tale for misbehaving children, and inspired a number of slasher movies. In the 1970s, the legend seemingly came to life when children on Staten Island began disappearing. Save one, their bodies were never found. 

This is Based on a True Crime.
