September 23, 2023Episode 78: Jeepers Creepers! It's Dennis DePueThis true crime case was the (unofficial) inspiration for the opening scene of 2001 film, Jeepers Creepers. Once you learn a little more about the events witnessed by couple Ray and Marie Thornton on Easter Sunday of 1990 in Cold Water, Michigan, it's not hard to see why it inspired a scene from a gruesome horror movie. They didn't know it at the time but they had witnessed the aftermath of the violent murder of Marilynn DePue by her ex-husband Dennis DePue.WE HAVE LIVE SHOW NEWS!More details to come but we will be hosting a live episode of The Grim Curriculum on December 9th 2023 at Felice Cafe, Edmonton.

September 16, 2023Episode 77: The Excavation of King Tutankhamun’s TombWelcome to our Grim history lesson on Ancient Egyptian Pharaoh, King Tutankhamun and the historical and legendary excavation of his tomb by Howard Carter in 1922. Although King Tut's life was relatively short he is one of, if not the most, famous ancient Egyptian mummy to be discovered. There's a ton of debate around nearly every piece of information about him. How did he die? Was he fit and healthy during his young life or was he riddled with illness and disease?
