We’ve got a little surprise for you this spooky season…

Tom, Ben & Dan are back with a Halloween special that will send shivers down your spine.

It’s Halloween night, 1974, in Pasadena, Texas. Eight-year-old Timothy O’Bryan is out trick-or-treating with his little sister, Elizabeth, and a friend from down the street... all under the watchful eye of Timothy’s father, Ronald Clark O’Bryan. A well-respected church deacon, a loving parent, and a man trusted by his community…

The evening goes perfectly. The children race from door to door, their bags filling with sweets and smiles. But when they return home and tuck into their hard-earned candy, one treat will change everything. What should have been a night of innocent fun becomes a chilling tragedy that would haunt Halloween forever.

Join the boys as they unwrap the horrifying true story of The Candy Man. 🍬💀

Four lives lost, one small Welsh village changed forever.

In 1999, the quiet community of Clydach was rocked by a brutal and deeply personal crime... a case that would divide opinion for decades.

Police quickly focused their investigation on local man David “Dai” Morris, who would go on to be tried, convicted, and imprisoned for the murders. But from day one, questions have surrounded the evidence, the investigation, and whether the right man was ever brought to justice.

Join Tom, Ben & Dan as they revisit The Clydach Murders, a case that remains one of the most shocking and debated in Welsh criminal history.

On a summer afternoon in 1984, the quiet community of San Ysidro, California, was shattered by one of the deadliest attacks in U.S. history. James Oliver Huberty entered a local McDonald’s and carried out a horrifying assault that would claim 21 lives and injure many more.

This tragedy left an indelible scar on America, sparking national conversations about mental health, gun control, and the warning signs of violent behaviour. Huberty’s actions stunned investigators and the public alike, leaving many to ask: could this have been prevented?

In this episode, we explore Huberty’s troubled background, the warning signs that were missed, and the lasting impact this tragedy had on survivors, families, and U.S. law enforcement response to public attacks.

In the mid-1980s, Northern California became the hunting ground of two men whose crimes would horrify the nation. Leonard Lake and Charles Ng formed a deadly partnership that led to one of the most disturbing series of murders in U.S. history.

The pair lured victims to a remote property in Calaveras County, where their carefully hidden compound revealed the full extent of their crimes. What investigators uncovered would shock even the most experienced officers... a grim trail of victims, disturbing videotapes, and evidence of cold, calculated brutality.

In this episode, we explore the backgrounds of Leonard Lake and Charles Ng, how their paths crossed, and how their twisted fantasies escalated into real-life atrocities. We also look at the investigation that eventually exposed their crimes and brought one of America’s darkest criminal partnerships to an end.

This case raises chilling questions about complicity, manipulation, and how two individuals together can commit horrors far beyond what either might have done alone.

In August 1992, a remote cabin in the mountains of Idaho became the site of one of the most controversial standoffs in American history. What began as a warrant enforcement operation quickly escalated into a violent confrontation between federal agents and Randy Weaver’s family, resulting in multiple deaths and sparking national outrage.

The Ruby Ridge siege would not only ignite debates over government overreach, gun rights, and militia movements, but also influence how federal law enforcement handled future crises like Waco and beyond.

In this episode, we explore the background of the Weaver family, the tragic events that unfolded over 11 tense days, and the lasting impact this confrontation had on American politics, law enforcement, and public trust.

This is the story of mistrust, escalation, and a standoff that changed the course of U.S. history.

In October 1972, a plane carrying a Uruguayan rugby team, along with their friends and family, crashed into the remote Andes mountains. What followed became one of the most remarkable and haunting survival stories in modern history.

For 72 days, the survivors faced freezing conditions, avalanches, hunger, and despair. Cut off from the world and with no rescue in sight, they were forced to make unimaginable choices in order to stay alive. Against all odds, a handful of them managed to endure and eventually trek across the mountains to find help, ensuring the survival of the remaining passengers.

In this episode, we explore the crash itself, the brutal conditions in the mountains, the resilience of the survivors, and the legacy this story has left behind. It is a tale of tragedy, courage, and the extremes of human endurance.

For decades, women across the United States were disappearing, their cases often overlooked, misclassified, or forgotten. Behind it all was one man: Samuel Little.

Little’s crimes spanned more than 30 years, making him America’s most prolific confirmed serial killer. He claimed responsibility for over 90 murders, and the FBI later verified at least 60 of them, a chilling record in U.S. history. His victims were often among society’s most vulnerable, which tragically allowed his crimes to go undetected for far too long.

In this episode, we trace Little’s early life and criminal background, his disturbing methods, and how he managed to avoid justice for decades. We also look at how modern investigative work finally exposed the full scale of his atrocities, leading to a shocking legacy that still raises questions about law enforcement failures, victim profiling, and justice for the forgotten.

This is the story of manipulation, brutality, and a criminal who managed to hide in plain sight.

In March 1998, 10-year-old Natascha Kampusch was abducted on her way to school in Vienna, Austria. She would not be seen in public again for more than eight years.

Held captive in a hidden basement by Wolfgang Přiklopil, Natascha endured unimaginable isolation and abuse. During her 3,096 days in captivity, she was cut off from the outside world, surviving in a small, windowless cell. Her eventual escape in August 2006 stunned the world and raised haunting questions about survival, trauma, and resilience.

In this episode, we explore Natascha’s early life, the day of her abduction, the years of confinement, and the remarkable moment she finally broke free. We also discuss the investigation, Přiklopil’s actions, and Natascha’s own powerful reflections on her ordeal and recovery.

This is a story not only of cruelty but also of extraordinary strength and survival against overwhelming odds.
