The Pandemonium Witches: Murders, Mystery, and Mayhem

The Pandemonium team is back and frostier than ever in this deliciously unhinged episode packed with dismemberment, cannibalism, and a blizzard of MERDER and mystery.

Join Cat, Rachel, Em, and our friendly librarian Sam as we trek from the tragic misfortunes of the Donner Party in the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the chilling enigma of the Dyatlov Pass in the snowy Russian wilderness. Starvation, suspicion, and strange circumstances abound as we dive into two of history’s most haunting cold-weather catastrophes.

Grab a blanket - and maybe a snack (just not a Donner kind) - this episode is one frosty ride.

The Pandemonium crew returns with another unhinged deep dive - this time into the grimy, gory depths of Washington state’s most notorious serial killer: Gary Ridgway, a.k.a. the Green River Killer.

Join hosts Cat and Rachel as they unravel the twisted tale of dismemberment, swamps, and rivers (with a generous splash of MERDER). From the horrors of Ridgway’s 49 confirmed victims to the recent DNA breakthroughs cracking cold cases wide open, this episode is as chilling as it is riveting.

It’s the worst thing to come out of Washington since Windows Vista and Twilight - and trust us, it’s a wild one.

The Pandemonium team is back and more unhinged than ever! In this chaotic cocktail of chills, laughs, and the downright bizarre, Cat and Meg dive into a spine-tingling tale submitted by a follower on Reddit - featuring none other than a haunted rocking horse.

From questioning the audacity of Hasbro’s Ouija boards to swapping exorcism stories and debating the horrors of haunted dorm rooms, nothing is off-limits in this paranormal rollercoaster.

Tune in as we giggle through the ghostly and maybe realize… we are the Ouija boards.
