The Pandemonium Witches: Murders, Mystery, and Mayhem

S1.E36 - MERDER Down Under: Babies, Bunny Feet, & Bloodshed in New Zealand


Listen Later

The Pandemonium crew is back and utterly unhinged in this wild ride of an episode - and yes, we’re talking about MERDER!

This week, Rachel, Cat, and Meg take you from the eerily peaceful hills of 1990s Aramoana to the disturbingly quaint countryside of 1880s New Zealand, where hobbits roam and secrets fester.

We’re diving headfirst into the tragic story of mass shooter David Gray, before hopping back in time to meet Minnie Dean - baby farmer, lean-to dweller, and one suspiciously polite lady with a very deadly habit.

Expect talk of rabbit's feet, hobbit holes, babies in chef hats (don’t ask), and the kind of historical horror that makes your skin crawl.

Come for the chaos, stay for the crime - and maybe bring a blanket. This one gets weird.
