And a sketch that could have broken the case wide open sat untouched in a filing cabinet.

The Order of the Solar Temple was an apocalyptic secret society that orchestrated mass murder-suicides across Switzerland, Canada, and France in the 1990s. Leaders convinced members that death was a “transit” to a higher spiritual realm tied to cosmic prophecy.

June 30Lauren Agee: Who Let Her Fall
On a summer night in July 2015, 21-year-old Lauren Agee was camping with friends on a towering rocky bluff above Center Hill Lake at Tennessee's Wakefest boating festival. By morning, she was dead at the base of the cliff ninety feet below. Authorities ruled it an accidental fall. Her family never accepted that answer. Inconsistencies in the autopsy, shifting witness accounts, and a scene that wasn't immediately treated as a crime raised urgent questions. Was Lauren's death a tragic accident — or did someone on that bluff know exactly what happened and walk away?

In Peru's scorching Nazca Valley, ancient inhabitants carved enormous animal figures into the desert floor over a thousand years ago — figures so large they can only be understood from the air. In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes, Vanessa traces the decades-long quest to decode these mysterious formations, from the mathematician who dedicated her life to the desert to the bestselling author who claimed they were built for alien spacecraft.

June 28Ted the Caver: The Horror Underground | Creepypastas
In early 2001, a recreational caver named Ted documented his obsessive attempt to break through a sealed passage deep inside a cave... and what he found on the other side became one of the internet's earliest and most disturbing horror stories. Presented as a real personal account with photographs and journal entries, Ted the Caver predated modern creepypastas and convinced countless readers it was true. The story builds from physical claustrophobia to something far darker: unexplained sounds, a dog's terror, a screaming passage, and a presence that may have followed Ted home.

In the mid-1930s, Cleveland, Ohio was gripped by a series of brutal killings that would become one of the most disturbing mysteries in American criminal history. Victims were discovered dismembered, their heads and limbs removed, leaving investigators struggling to identify the dead or track the killer responsible. As the bodies began appearing along the city’s rail yards and riverbanks, fear spread across Cleveland. Authorities, including famed lawman Eliot Ness, launched an intense investigation, but the killer known as the “Mad Butcher of Kingsbury Run” remained elusive. Part one explores the discovery of the first victims and the growing terror that signaled a serial killer was at work.
