Sometimes you meet the most fascinating people on vacation. You just never know who you might encounter. People from different cultures, possible future lifelong friends, or even someone famous.



There’s also that chance of even meeting that special someone.

In January 2002, a young German photographer named Janina was on holiday in Cancun, Mexico.



She’d been enjoying the sand, surf and sun when she was introduced to someone famous. Michael Finkel, an award-winning feature writer for The New York Times Magazine.

Episode 214 - On The Run - The Hunt For Moriah Wilson's Killer

Halifax, Nova Scotia regularly shows up on lists of Canada’s friendliest cities. Its East Coast charm and colorful maritime houses often lull visitors into thinking time moves more slowly there. 



But in 2007, it was the starting point for a cross-country killing spree. Glen Race had just received a mission from God and unfortunately for the people of Halifax, he was deeply in the grips of a schizophrenic delusion.

Episode 213 - Inner Demons - The Crimes of Glen Race

The concept of an "evil twin" is something that’s fascinated and terrified human beings for millenia: a twin or doppelgänger who embodies the polar opposite of a person.



It’s a trope that’s appeared throughout recorded history. In mythology, literature, and even the bible.



But while it’s often used as a literary device and often a bad one at that…has it ever actually happened in the real world?

Episode 211 - Badd Barbie - The Playmate and The Doctor

Imagine stepping out to your mailbox one morning, only to discover an envelope addressed to you from a notorious serial killer who has been locked away since the 80s.



Inside the envelope, you're relieved not to find any grisly mementos; but instead find a birthday card for your infant child along with a handwritten message complimenting you on your beautiful family.



Some might argue that such a message would be just as horrifying as receiving a severed finger or lock of hair. Either way, for most people, receiving anything in the mail from a serial killer would be abnormal.
