PARANORMAL

 

With sightings dating back to the 1800s, the legend of the Fouke Monster of Boggy Creek is an important part of Arkansas's folklore. Lurking in the bogs of Arkansas, the Fouke Monster frightens motorists, homeowners, and hikers. The story of Boggy Creek and the monster who may inhabit it was the subject of the 1972 cult classic The Legend of Boggy Creek. The central story was based on testimonies from Arkansas natives recounting their terrifying stories from Arkansas.

PARANORMAL

 

There is something to be said about living in a quaint safe town where everybody knows your name. But what if one day your town took a turn for the worse, and it wasn’t so quaint or safe? What if the devil made your neighbor kill someone? Would you believe your neighbor? What would happen? Today we’re talking about the small town of Brookfield, Connecticut. This community went 193 years without a single homicide...until the devil came to town.

TRUE-CRIME

 

Texarkana, a small town that straddles the state line between Texas and Arkansas, is also known as The Town That Dreaded Sundown, thanks to the 1976 horror flick of the same name. Set in Texarkana and based loosely on a string of local slayings, the proto-slasher film came out just two years after The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Black Christmas, and two years before Halloween. Yet the true story behind the “Texarkana Moonlight Murders” is as chilling as anything seen on the silver screen—and made all the more unsettling because the case remains unsolved nearly 70 years later.

Welcome back Far Siders! Today we’re talking about a man known for being a shoe fetishist, a rapist, a torturer, a necrophiliac, and most notably, a serial killer. Methodically, he stalked and brutally murdered four women, before taking trophies and dumping their bodies in a nearby river. It is speculated he kidnapped and murdered many more before his capture in 1969. This is the story of Jerry Brudos.

The address 1140 Royal Street, New Orleans, Louisiana may sound quite average to most people. Unfortunately, this address has seen far more than its fair share of horror. Standing tall and proud, this home fits right in on the cultured New Orleans square. You probably wouldn’t even give it a second glance if you walked by - other than to maybe admire its historic facade. You would be surprised to find that this typical looking abode has a sordid past. Even Hollywood has looked to its tragic track record for inspiration because this location was the site of murder, torture, and has been speculated about since 1834.

Anneliese Michel was born in Germany on September 21, 1952. She grew up in a devoutly, somewhat extreme, Catholic family. Pictures taken of her during childhood show a vibrant, pretty girl on her way to becoming a gorgeous woman. She had shining black hair, an open, honest face and a stunning smile. By the time she was 23-years-old, she was emaciated, heavily bruised, scarred and deranged. She was supposedly taken over by demons and fought for nearly eight years before finally losing her battle with evil. Later, her death was labeled negligent homicide, but was there anything anyone could have done for Anneliese Michel? Were those who were with Anneliese really fighting Satan?

During World War II, Nazi officials were constantly hunting down resistance fighters and the allied spies who aided them. But there was one foreign operative the Third Reich held a special contempt for—a woman responsible for more jailbreaks, sabotage missions and leaks of Nazi troop movements than any spy in France. Her name was Virginia Hall, but the Nazis knew her only as “the limping lady.”
