Happy Tuesday, creeps and freaks! Thank you for your understanding while we took last week off. But this week, we are back in action! Michelle brings us the mystery of the Sodder family children. On Christmas Eve of 1945, the Sodder family home burned to the ground, and only four of the nine children in the home made it out alive. Or did they? We would love to know your thoughts and theories on this case! Write to us on our socials or via email. 

Thank you as always for listening!

Hey creeps and freaks. We have a pretty tough episode all around this week. Courtney discusses the senseless murders of Sister Tadea Benz and Narne Box Bryson, as well as the subsequent execution of Johnny Frank Garrett. We have many opinions on what happened (which is very evident in the episode), and we hope you will weigh in on yours. Please be advised that this case discusses rape and violence against children. There is also an abundance of spicy language. We were very emotionally charged this episode! 

Thank you as always for listening!

Happy Thursday, creeps and freaks! We apologize for this episode going out a bit late. We had some technical difficulties - there is one portion of the episode that we had to re-record, so the audio is off. But it's only for a short bit of time. But this week, we're bringing you a spooky smorgasbord if you will. Courtney takes us through the tale of the "Cora tree" of North Carolina and Michelle talks about the lore of "lost episodes". Plus, we have another listener story submitted by our lovely friend Katie with Malice and Mocktails! This episode has a bit of everything, and we hope you enjoy! 

Thank you as always for listening!

This week, Michelle is bringing you the harrowing case of the 2004 Napa Halloween Murders. On October 31, 2004, 3 roommates, Lauren, Adriane and Leslie were sleeping peacefully in their home when an intruder would change everything and take the lives of Adriane and Leslie. Lauren survived to tell this tale and we are so privileged to be able to tell it from her perspective. 

Thank you as always for listening!

In the second week of our Halloween horror series, Courtney covers the case of the 2010 Liske/Griffin family murders. On Halloween of 2010, BJ Liske did the unthinkable, creating a scene that would be described as a real-life horror story. 

Thank you as always for listening!

Have you ever felt the need to check your children's Halloween candy before they eat any of it? Chances are, it's because of this absolute piece of human garbage. This week, Michelle takes us through the horrendous story of Ronald Clark O'Bryan, who became know as "The Candy Man" and also, the man who ruined Halloween. Evil doesn't even begin to cover this one.

Please be advised that this story does discuss the death of a child.

Thank you as always for listening!

In this week's episode, Courtney discusses the 2014 attack of Payton Leutner, also known as the Slender Man attack. Spoiler alert - this one is a survivor story! And Payton's story is truly remarkable. Please note that this episode discusses mental illness and violence against children.

We also wanted to add that this week's episode doesn't contain a current true crime event (weekly f***ery). We had discussed one when we recorded the episode, but after we finished recording, family members of the victim we discussed expressed their desire for privacy and for the case to stop being covered while they process (understandably so). With that in mind, we decided to cut the segment from the episode. We understand that by covering current events, things like this can come up, but we never want to go against the wishes of those impacted the most. 

Thank you as always for listening!
