Well, it's been a hot minute, but we're back! Life got pretty crazy and hectic for the last 6 months and we had to take a longer break than anticipated. From broken collarbones to moving, to weddings and jobs changes, we didn't get nearly all the progress made that we wanted but we are thrilled to finally be back and settling into a (hopefully) less hectic schedule.

Welcome back for our season finale!
Anastasia is covering our final episode before we take some time off to work on Season Two, merch ideas, and more! We want to say a huge thank you to everyone who has made our first year such a success- we're truly blown away by it all! Tune back in for Season Two starting up in October!
But first, story time! Blake actually dug this one up from reddit- the kidnapping and murder of Mary Catherine Olenchuk. The case is the oldest cold case in the state of Maine, and certainly one of the more baffling. With no apparent motive, the case immediately hit a brick wall and has stayed that way ever since...for over 50 years. Listen in and let us know your theories!

It's that time of the month again! As the new month is here, we're starting things off right with the scariest stories we can find. Leave the lights on and grab a blanket and your beverage of choice... Aunties Anastasia and Loren are going to read you some spookums.
Welcome back for another week of horror! Anastasia's going to be glad she's sitting this one out while she moves...Loren's guest feature is Rory- back again for another story that will horrify and enthrall. This week's feature? Oleg Sokolov, the Russian Napoleonic historian, re-enactor, Docent of History, and (now being withdrawn) recipient of The Legion of Honor (Chevalier)...and convicted murderer of Anastasia Yeshchenko.
In November 2019, Oleg was found in the Moyka River in St Petersburg with a backpack containing a pair of human arms and a weapon. Oleg claims he was going to get rid of the body before publicly committing suicide dressed as Napoleon. Join us this week for the full details of this strange case!

Trigger warning@ 41:45 phone message
Break-ins, threatening phone calls, arson, and physical assaults. Moving and changing names didn't help. Physical security measures failed. For nearly 7 years, Cindy James was stalked, harassed, and assaulted by an unknown person. Police couldn't -or perhaps, wouldn't- help her, a private investigator tried his best, but none could keep her safe.
Cindy suspected that the truth was closer to home than anyone expected. But no one could be 100% certain.
Who had it out for this vibrant and caring nurse, and why?
Join us this week as Anastasis covers the unsolved case of Cindy James, a nurse from Vancouver, British Columbia. To date, this case is unsolved and her family and friends, as well as Ozzie Kaban -her private investigator- firmly believe that her killer walks freely among us.
