In Moston, Manchester, England, 16 year old Suzanne Capper just wanted to make some friends. She was having a hard time coping with school and would regularly skip class when she would meet a boy named Clifford Pook. When Clifford introduced Suzanne to his older sister, Jean Powell, Suzanne bent backward to make Jean and her friends happy. However, from the start, this group would turn on Suzanne and treat her horribly, until it all came to a head on December 7th of 1992 when they decided they needed to punish Suzanne for every slight they perceived her to make against them.

Out on Lake Crescent in July of 1940, fishermen come across the body of a woman wrapped in blankets floating on the surface. The body was a startling sight to behold as a strange chemical process had turned her flesh into a soap-like substance and her what was left of her face had made her virtually impossible to identify. Meanwhile, 3 years before, Hallie Illingworth, a waitress at the Lake Crescent Tavern had disappeared around Christmas time in 1937. Where was Hallie, and what happened to the poor woman found floating in Lake Crescent? Join Noelle from Creepy Confidential in this special take over of The Book of the Dead to find out the mystery of the Lady of the Lake.

Special thanks to Noelle for taking over the pod after what was probably the worst week of our lives. We'll see you all in the next chapter!

When Irene Paget met John Barron, she thought she would have the life she had always wanted: to be a wife and mother. However, Jack Barron was not who Irene thought he was. He was overbearing, obsessed with his appearance, and flew off the handle at everything that displeased him. When a string of deaths occur within the family, the community rallies to support poor Jack Barron who seems to have lost it all, until people start asking questions. One sudden death is a tragedy, but four looks like murder.

In the heart of Kansas City Missouri, there is a historic building called the Hotel President, which has remained an icon in the city since it was erected in 1927. With a list of prestigious guests, it is known for being the spot for lavish parties and entertainment. Still, it is also known as the scene of a murder that has never been solved—that of a young man, with a mysterious background and an even more mysterious death that occurred in January of 1935. States away, in Alabama, Ruby Ogletree is desperate to find out what happened to her son Artemus after he leaves home for the adventure of a lifetime.

In October of 1978, off the coast of Cape Otway flew the 20-year-old Australian pilot, Frederick Valentich. According to the Radio Exchange he had with radio controller Steve Robey, Frederick reported an aircraft flying above him, but Steve verified that there was no air traffic in that area. Soon after, in correspondence that would baffle Robey and those who saw the transcript after the fact, Frederick would tell Steve that the vessel flying over him was not an aircraft at all. After this shocking revelation, Frederick would disappear with no trace of him or his plane ever to be found. Ash, the Host of F**k That, takes us through Australia's greatest mystery: the disappearance of Frederick Valentich.
