This week, we’re turning to an exceptionally spoOOOooky corner of true crime - paranormal murder cases! Whether ghosts were part of key evidence, or the ghosts of victims tormented their killers into confessing, these cases are sure to leave your spine tingling. Featuring a ghost bent on bringing her murderous husband to justice, a very ridiculous sheet-wearing ghost, and a killer haunted by his young victim. As we continue our dive into the scariest topics we can think of for this magical time of year, we hope you stay spooky - but stay far off these lists!

Cases Covered:
1. Terry Childs
2. Jose Ferriera

Happy Halloween, Twisted Listeners! We're really getting into the holiday spirit with this topic - cases involving ghosts! Some ghosts help solve cases, while others are the cause of the problem to begin with! I guess even in the ghost world, it takes all kinds.

After the last few episodes, it feels good to talk about something spooky, something more decidedly Halloween! We hope you agree, and we hope you enjoy!

Cases Covered:
1. Elva Zona Heaster Shue, “The Greenbrier Ghost”

This week, Twisted Listeners, we're redoing one of our very first lists, and boy is it a doozy! We're looking at a topic that we both enjoy researching, but both hate the lack of closure: Mysterious Disappearances! Cindy takes on the number one case that keeps her up at night, while Diva takes on a case that makes all other mysterious disappearances seem like they could easily be solved. Both cases on this episode are interesting, frustrating, and sad, and both, just like the two to follow, and completely, totally unsolved. Frustrating? Very. Interesting? Definitely. So tune in and let us know your theories!

This week, we’re turning to the dark and gloomy topic of murder-suicides. These cases are as grim as they come, and despite the fact that we know how they turn out, we think that you’ll find them riveting nonetheless. Featuring a really revolting Mormon family annihilator, a survivor of a disgusting cult on a revenge mission, and a murderous ex-boyfriend. Buckle up and come with us as we make our way through some of the most tragic and disturbing cases we’ve done yet.

Cases Covered:
1. Mark and Jennair Gerardot, and Meredith Chapman

We're back on track this week, dear listeners, with another topic that is very popular, but somehow missed us these last few years. This week, we are talking about horrific cases of murder sucidies. And let us tell you, these stories are extremely bleak, sad, and abrupt, as there is no resolution to be found in any of these tales. Some are also surprisingly ambiguous as to who the 'bad guy' really is, which was something we found unexpected and very interesting, and we think you will too!
So tune in and enjoy these terrible tales of people who wanted to end it all, not only for themselves, but unfortunately for others as well.

1. Michael Haight

This week, we kick off the spooky season with a motif omnipresent in Diva’s Halloween decor: blood splatter. Specifically, we look at cases that hinged on blood splatter evidence and analysis, a topic which is surprisingly problematic and complex. Featuring a mysterious Halloween whodunit, a microscopic flake of blood that cracked the case of a notorious hate crime, and a questionable blood splatter pattern that may or may not exonerate an abusive husband. Buckle up and join us for a wild ride through these absolutely bananas and blood-splattered cases!

This week's topic is one that took us by surprise, at least in the types of cases we've ended up covering! We're looking into the weird world of blood spatter analysis, and boy is it weird, interesting, and, some may argue, not scientific in the least!
Many of the people in these cases claim their innocence, blaming faulty analysis of blood as the reason they are behind bars. And maybe they're right - who knows? We certainly don't, but we're happy to speculate while discussing cases that give a new meaning to the term 'bad blood'.

This week, Cindy has chosen the gnarly topic of the world’s most hated, most evil supervillains. This list is wall-to-wall monsters, whose huge, high-profile cases left us sick to our stomachs.

We love a good villain story, don't we? Be it reality TV bad guys, fictional foes, social media monsters, there's always a big interest in having someone to hate. And in real life, (really real, not Bad Girls Club real) when there's a villain, people really, really love to hate them. I don't think our podcast (or any others of the same type, for that matter) would exist if this wasn't true. So, as a nod to the very phenomenon that allows our podcast to exist, we've decided to tlak about the most hated villains of recent years. These include many well known names, both brand new and not to new, but with amazing, interesting case updates, information, and a deeper dive into what makes these monsters tick.

Cases Covered:
1. Jeffrey Epstein
2. GSK/The Golden State Killer/EARONS
