  • 78: The Lady of the Dunes: The Woman Behind the Mystery | True Crime Sleep Stories

    For nearly 50 years, the identity of a woman found murdered in the dunes of Provincetown, Massachusetts, remained a mystery. Known only as the “Lady of the Dunes,” investigators searched for decades to discover who she was, & who was responsible for her death.

    In 2022, advances in genetic genealogy finally gave her back her name: Ruth Marie Terry.

    Tonight, we explore Ruth’s life, the decades-long investigation, and the discovery that finally brought one of Cape Cod’s biggest mysteries to a close.

    Tonight on True Crime Sleep Stories, we travel back to 1920s Southern California to explore the Wineville Chicken Coop Murders, the strange and conflicting evidence surrounding the case, and the families left searching for answers.

    In 1928, a quiet chicken ranch in Wineville, California, became the center of one of the era’s most disturbing criminal investigations.

    After a frightened teenage boy revealed what he had witnessed at his uncle Gordon Stewart Northcott’s ranch, authorities began uncovering connections to several missing boys, including brothers Lewis and Nelson Winslow and nine-year-old Walter Collins.

    Shadows of Yellowstone: Into the Vastness
    In this episode of True Crime Sleep Stories, we step into the vast and quiet landscape of Yellowstone National Park.

    -We examine the strange 1970 murder of James Schlosser, a young social worker who offered two hitchhikers a ride near the park and never returned. 
    -We then look at the still-unsolved 1991 disappearance of Dan Campbell and his dog Freckles from the Hellroaring Trailhead. 
    Finally, we turn to the quieter accounts that have surfaced over the decades, reports of large bipedal figures, unexplained vocalizations, and moments that leave people wondering what else might move through these mountains.

    This episode contains descriptions of extreme violence and cannibalism. Listener discretion is advised.

  • 72: The Mysterious Murder of Julia Wallace | True Crime Sleep Stories

    In this episode of True Crime Sleep Stories, we'll gently explore the remarkable case of Julia Wallace, a quiet musician whose tragic death has puzzled detectives, judges, crime writers, and historians for more than ninety years.

    Step back into the rain-soaked streets of Liverpool in the winter of 1931, where one ordinary terraced house became the setting for one of Britain's most enduring unsolved mysteries.

    We'll wander through the atmospheric streets of 1930s Liverpool, meet William and Julia Wallace, and follow the strange series of events that began with a mysterious telephone call from a man who may never have existed. Was the call an elaborate deception? A cruel prank? Or the first move in a carefully planned crime?

    As always, this isn't a story of sensationalism or shock. Instead, we'll take a calm, thoughtful journey through history, examining the evidence, the investigation, and the enduring questions that continue to fascinate true crime enthusiasts to this day.

    So settle in, relax, and let the story unfold at an unhurried pace.

    • 70: Shadows of the Shoemaker: The Crimes of Joseph Kallinger | True Crime Sleep Stories

      On tonight's episode of True Crime Sleep Stories...
      Joseph Kallinger, a Philadelphia shoemaker and father of seven, was shaped by severe childhood abuse and untreated mental illness. In 1974–1975, delusions of divine commands led him, and tragically, his 12-year-old son Michael, into a brief but devastating crime spree.

      This episode honors the victims:
      José Collazo (age 10)
      Joseph Kallinger Jr. (Joey, age 13)
      Maria Fasching (age 21)
      We also remember the survivors of multiple terrifying home invasions across Pennsylvania, Maryland, and New Jersey... families bound, robbed, and traumatized over hours.

      Told with respect and care, focusing on their lives, courage, and the human cost.

      Sweet dreams, stay safe, and lock your doors tonight.
      See you in the shadows. 🌑
