Serial Killers and Side Quests

🏚️ EPISODE 5 — THE LAST HOUSE ON HOLLOW ROAD 🌲

Some roads are better left unexplored.

Especially the ones that seem to appear out of nowhere.

In this episode of Serial Killers and Side Quests, we're taking a break from true crime and conspiracy theories and telling a fictional horror story about a road that shouldn't exist, a house at the end of it, and something waiting inside.

A strange house.

Photographs that show things they shouldn't.

A voice that knows your name.

And three knocks at the door.

This episode is completely fictional.

No case to research.

No conspiracy to investigate.

Just a slow-burn horror story about what happens when you take the wrong turn and keep going.

So turn the lights down, put your headphones on, and come with us down Hollow Road.

But if you hear three knocks...

don't answer.

⚓️ EPISODE 4 — THE PHILADELPHIA EXPERIMENT 👁️

What if the U.S. Navy tried to make a warship invisible?

Not camouflage.

Not stealth.

Invisible.

And what if the experiment went horribly wrong?

In this episode of Serial Killers and Side Quests, we dive into one of the strangest military legends ever told: the story of the Philadelphia Experiment.

A mysterious Navy ship. A supposedly top-secret experiment. Electromagnetic fields. Disappearing ships. Time travel. Teleportation. And a crew allegedly left with consequences that sound like something straight out of a science-fiction horror movie.

But here's the problem...

Did any of it actually happen?

We'll dig into where the story came from, the claims surrounding the mysterious experiment, the people connected to the legend, and the explanations that try to separate historical fact from one of the wildest rabbit holes we've ever gone down.

Because sometimes a military experiment is just a military experiment...

…and sometimes the internet convinces you that the Navy accidentally invented teleportation in 1943.

This week on Serial Killers and Side Quests, we’re diving into the absolutely horrifying story of Albert Fish—one of the most disturbing criminals in American history.

From his bizarre behavior and increasingly disturbing crimes to the investigation that finally put him on the radar of law enforcement, Fish’s story is the kind of true crime rabbit hole that somehow keeps getting worse the deeper you go.

We’re breaking down who Albert Fish was, how he managed to hide his crimes for so long, the investigation that eventually caught him, and the shocking evidence that helped bring his story to an end.

And, of course, we’ll be doing it the Serial Killers and Side Quests way—with plenty of commentary, questionable observations, and the occasional “WHAT THE HELL ARE WE LISTENING TO?” moments.

⚠️ Warning: This episode discusses extremely disturbing crimes and is not for the faint of heart.
