  • 26. Tram to Prahran and Murder Mansion

    Did you survive Christmas, family gatherings, and this decade? We barely did, but true crime never stops so we can’t either. This week Carly covers slayer Caroline Reed Robinson, a teenager who was obsessed with her neighbor Rachel Barber. The obsession went on for years and ultimately ended in murder. Dani can’t get out of the holiday mood and covers the Los Feliz Murder Mansion. Harold Perelson murdered his wife and tried to kill his daughter before taking his own life. The house hasn’t been occupied for decades and remnants from the Perelson family were said to remain (like their Christmas tree and wrapped presents).

    It's our 25th episode and our Christmas episode! We're bringing you holiday horror. First Dani talks about a "gang" who went on a killing spree during Christmas in Dayton Ohio. Marvallous Keene, Laura Taylor, Demarcus Smith, and Heather Matthews, who named themselves "Downtown Posse", robbed and killed several people over three days. Carly talks about a Christmas massacre that left 16 survivors and 9 people dead. A man dressed as Santa entered the Ortega family's Christmas eve party carrying guns and a flame thrower. Even crazier than the attack, is Santa's identity and motive. Tune in to hear more about these cases!

  • 24. She’s a Contortionist and Baked Potato Silencer

    We're back together, and we’re sick. We apologize for our hoarse voices, throat clearings, and coughs. Dani believes America is rejecting her and Carly believes a ghost was present during our recording. But that aside, we’re bringing you true crime. Carly covers the case of Jennifer Pan. She concocted so many lies to make her tiger parents proud, in the end, she thought it was easier to kill them than keep up the charade. Dani talks about survivor Amy Jones. Her husband tried to kill her three times, but she survived every attempt and shared her story to promote domestic violence awareness.

    If you’re in an abusive situation, call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233 or visit www.thehotline.org for more resources.
