Patee and Kim enjoy a quick fire episode of Canadian ghost stories that were released along side a series of stamps and postcards issued by Canada Post. Featuring perverted poltergeists and brainless brakemen - actually a surprising number of both!

Part 2 of our in depth look at London, Ontario's Serial Killer problem.

We need to talk about London.
Ontario, that is. Between the years of 1959 and 1985 London Ontario saw the highest number of serial murders per capita in Canada, and possibly even in the (developed) world. So is there any truth to the rumours that London is the Serial Killer Capital of the World? Find out as Patee and Kim begin the lengthy process of uncovering what lead to 29 murders (most unsolved) and a lot of unanswered questions.

With files from "Murder City: The Untold Story of Canada's Serial Killer Capital".

A few things come to mind when we hear of strikes in the news, very rarely is murder one of them. The Giant Mine Massacre is one of Canada's largest mass murders on the books. Let's take a look back at how one company's efforts to line their own pockets may have indirectly (or if you ask some, directly) caused the death of 9 men.

For 11 years a predator avoided capture. His crime? The assult and murder of a 6 year old Edmonton girl. But what that man did not know was that the man tasked with finding him was persistant and patient. He would sift through hundreds of suspects and thousands of clues to catch his man.
