John Blymire set out to break a curse... but what happened inside Nelson Rehmeyer's farmhouse went far beyond anything he or his young accomplices had planned. In this episode, Vanessa and Dr. Engels unpack how a mission to steal a lock of hair spiraled into a brutal murder that shocked 1920s Pennsylvania and made international headlines. As guilt consumed the killers and a trial put folk magic itself in the spotlight, the Hex Hollow case forced a community to confront the deadly consequences of belief taken to its extreme.
