Dudleytown, an abandoned settlement off of Dark Entry Road in Cornwall, is not your typical ghost town. Nestled in the heart of Connecticut, this abandoned settlement isn't just deserted; it's like it's been erased, leaving behind a legacy of curses, hauntings, and untold stories that would make even a hardened ghost hunter think twice about spending a night there.  

This week I am joined by two hardened ghost hunters, Josh and Jamie of Paranormal Peeps, to discuss the cursed settlement of Dudleytown.

This week, Brenda (host of Horrifying History) and I jump headfirst into the scandalous affair-turned-legal showdown betweem Rachel Leviss, Tom Sandoval, and sadly, Ariana, too (justice for our queen). Whether you're Team Rachel, Team Tom (gross), or just here for the ride, this episode promises a concoction of insight, incredulity, and everything in between.

Grab a Pumptini, and enjoy the ride!

Think of a group so hooked on the idea of leveling up in the universe, they planned their own mass departure. Heaven's Gate, led by the duo Applewhite and Nettles, was not your average cult. They mixed doomsday vibes with UFO lore, promising a ride to the next level via a comet. The catch? A tragic mass suicide in '97 that rocked the world.

On July 9th, 1993, around 1:40 a.m., three officers from Sedona Police Department in Sedona, Arizona, were dispatched to Coffee Pot Drive after a 911 call from a man named Russell Bennett Peterson came in. A young mother of two died during a domestic altercation, and while her live-in partner was investigated as a suspect and the case was considered a homicide, the Yavapai County Attorney’s Office would eventually refuse to press charges due to an alleged lack of evidence.

This week I spoke with retired Special Agent in Charge, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, Office of Inspector General, Criminal Investigation division, Bruce Sackman. Bruce led the investigation into Dr. Death (the subject of last week's episode), ultimately bringing Michael Swango to justice.

Bruce is responsible for developing the Red Flag Protocol, which hospitals use today to identify potential clinicians who kill or harm patients. Bruce is truly a pioneer in investigating medical serial killers, and has worked closely with renowned individiuals in the field, such as Dr. Michael Baden.

Dr. Michael Swango, also known as Dr. Death, had his residency rescinded after his internship at Ohio State due to patients dying under his care while he was working in an ambulance, and due to his falsification of internship documents. His faculty and peers expressed their concerns, and yet, nobody alerted police or other medical institutions. After working as an EMT for an Illinois ambulance service, several of his colleagues fell ill after consuming food he brought in, or coffee he prepared.

Dr. Death was arrested for arsenic poisoning and served five years, but he was still able to work as a resident in New York and Zimbabwe following these incidences. After his rotation at the VA in New York, Special Agent Bruce Sackman set his sights on Swango, leading to his capture.

Next week, be sure to listen to my interview with retired Special Agent in Charge, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, Office of Inspector General, Criminal Investigation division, Bruce Sackman regarding Dr. Death, as well as several other medical serial killers he has investigated and brought to justice. Bruce is truly a pioneer in investigating medical serial killers, and the investigation and arrest of Michael Swango is just one of many cases Bruce has handled.

This week, I spoke with Chad Huber, a TikToker known for his viral series "Catfishing the Catfish." In this series, he turns the tables on romance scammers in a hilarious game of digital cat and mouse. Chad not only exposes scammers, but he also provides valuable insights into their deceptive practices, as well as education for the general public on how to protect themselves from scammers.

If you paid a romance scammer with a gift card, wire transfer, credit or debit card, or cryptocurrency, contact the company or your bank right away. Tell them you paid a scammer and ask them to refund your money. If you think it’s a scam, report it to the FTC at ReportFraud.ftc.gov. Notify the social networking site or app where you met the scammer, too.

DON'T GIVE RANDOS MONEY, especially in this economy!

From spiritual beginnings to allegations of abuse, the passing of a controversial leader, and a cult's quest for reinvention—this week I unpack the rise and fall of Love Has Won and its reincarnation as 5D Full Disclosure. Detailing Amy Carlson's rise, the cult's misdeeds, her death, and their limp into their rebrand following the death of the cult’s Mother God, this episode tells the sad and bizarre tale of a spiritual crash-and-burn.

In January of 1959, a group of nine experienced hikers began their expedition across the Northern Ural Mountains in The Soviet Union. Their goal was to reach Otorten Mountain, a place whose name ominously translates to "don't go there." After harsh weather conditions forced the group to establish camp on the open mountain slope, they were never heard from again. Eventually, the bodies of the nine hikers were discovered under strange circumstances.

As Domestic Violence Awareness month winds down, I had a special guest on the show. In 2016, Ashley Michelle’s on-and-off again partner, William Joles, brutally murdered his best friend, Nathan Deslippes. William then lured Ashley to the apartment, where he assaulted her, attempted to strangle her, and forced her to clean up the scene.

Ashley escaped, but the trauma endured… However, Ashley has been able to use her experiences to help others in need, and has recently written a book titled, “Finding Strength Through Tragedy.”

After her husband Richard told several variations of where Helle went, police uncovered damning evidence, implying that he knew more than what he was admitting. Leading up to Helle's disappearance, Richard bought a large-capacity freezer. And the day of her disappearance? Richard rented a large wood chipper.

On a summer's day on August 23, 1973, the quiet calm of Stockholm’s Norrmalmstorg square was shattered by the sound of gunfire. Escaped convict Jan-Erik Olsson entered the Kreditbanken bank, intending to rob it. The events that followed resulted in a six day hostage crisis that led to the development of Stockholm Syndrome.

After the arrest of Rex Heuermann in July of 2023, the investigation into the Gilgo Beach murders, once again, collided with the West Atlantic City murders, leaving authorities searching for connections between the cases again years later. While the evidence ultimately yielded no direct link, the recent events have brought to light the four unsolved murders of Kim Raffo, Barbara Breidor, Molly Jean Dilts, and Tracy Ann Roberts in 2006.

The Long Island Serial Murders began in 1993 with the murder of Rita Tangredi, followed by the murders of Sandra Castilla, and Colleen McNamee in 1993 and 1994. Jane Doe #7 was discovered in 1996, followed by Jane Doe #3 (Peaches), in 1997. Two torsos were found in 2000, and 2003 - and after that, it all went silent... until the disappearance of Shannan Gilbert in 2010.

While Shannan’s death remains a mystery, her legacy goes beyond her fate. Shannan’s disappearance reignited public interest in the unsolved Long Island Serial Murder cases, and set in motion a chain of events that led to the discovery of additional victims, including the four women who became known as The Gilgo Four - Melissa Barthelemy, Megan Waterman, Maureen Brainard-Barnes, and Amber Costello. A new task force was formed in March, 2022, which led to the to the arrest of Rex Heuermann on Thursday, July 13th, 2023.

This week I delve into the heart-wrenching case surrounding the murder of Brayla Stone. Brayla, a 17-year-old Black trans woman, met a tragic and untimely end, leaving behind a devastated community. After Brayla’s murder, the events leading up to her death came to light, exposing the struggles faced by trans individuals. Brayla’s story serves as a stark reminder of the violence and discrimination that the trans community faces every day.

RIP Brayla.

After Kent McGowen was convicted in 1994 for the murder of Susan White, his conviction was overturned during his appeals process. Kent went back to trial in 2002, and was again found guilty, but was sentenced to 20 years - five more years than his previous sentence. After Kent's release in 2021, he began fighting for his exoneration, while speaking out about the injustices within the criminal justice system.

After Harris County Deputy Kent McGowen fatally shot and killed Susan White on August 25th, 1992, ADA's Ed Porter and Don Smyth were immediately suspicious that this was not done in self-defense.

Rumors began to swirl that Kent and Susan had a brief relationship, and once it was ended, Kent was left enraged. Depositions showed that Susan believed she was being sexually harassed by Kent, but no formal reports or complaints were made.

Investigators were soon convinced Susan White's death was not self-defense, and Kent was indicted by a Grand Jury on October 27th, 1992. Kent was found guilty and was sentenced to 15 years on March 11th, 1994, but due toTexas law regarding bonds pending appeal, Kent was able to stay out of prison during the appeals process.

Statista Number of people shot to death by the police in the United...

Kent McGowen became a police officer with the Houston Police Department in the 1980’s. While his career wasn’t perfect, it didn’t come under scrutiny until he was employed with the Harris County Sheriff’s Office. While serving a warrant, Deputy Kent McGowen shot and killed Susan White. While Kent fought to argue his innocence due to self-defense, many others claimed otherwise.

Part one unpacks the tangled story surrounding the controversial case of Deputy Kent McGowen and the tragic death of Susan White. This episode examines their backgrounds, shedding light on Kent's extensive law enforcement career, and unraveling the sequence of events that culminated into the fateful night of August 25th, 1992.

Ronald Gene Simmons will forever be known as “The Father From Hell.” After tormenting his family with his unrelenting abuse, he developed an infatuation with one of his daughters. Once this daughter established boundaries and left the Simmons home, Ronald began to plot his revenge on over a dozen people during the holidays in 1987. His rampage remains the deadliest mass murder in Arkansas history, and the deadliest mass murder of a family in American history.

After filing appeals that were ultimately denied throughout 2010, a motion was filed in 2020 on Chad's behalf requesting a video hearing to purge the bench warrant, and ultimately, close the case in Venango County Pennsylvania.

After Nance, the horse queen, fails to appear at the scheduled court date, Pennsylvania dismisses the custody issue on May 21st, 2021. They did NOT resolve the issue of "contempt." In 2022, Chad fought the federal charges, offering extradition in return for air ambulance transport and a speedy trial, or requested the U.S. to dismiss the indictment. Sadly, the U.S. was not ready to let it go, and Chad is STILL in St. Kitts needing urgent medical care.

Marriage is a challenge, and it gets even more complicated when two people share a child. Custody battles often get ruthless, taking years to finally settle. What if one of the parents lives out of the country? In this case, it can mean kidnapping – and when you cross state borders and beyond… what happens then?

Even if a parent has custody, this doesn’t necessarily mean they will not become a fugitive wanted across the globe.

This week I delve into the controversial and extreme haunted attraction known as McKamey Manor, an extreme haunted house attraction that has sparked intense debate and controversy.

Located in Summertown, Tennessee, McKamey Manor is not your typical haunted house attraction. It bills itself as an extreme haunt experience that challenges its participants physically and mentally. The experience is not for the faint of heart; it involves extreme simulations of torture, confinement, and other traumas. What I’m trying to say is, you have to have at least one loose screw to want to participate.

Participants must sign a 40-page waiver, undergo a background check, and pass a physical and mental exam before being allowed to take the tour. Once inside, participants are subjected to a grueling, hours-long experience that includes simulated drowning, extreme temperatures, and physical and psychological torture. The attraction has garnered significant criticism, with some describing it as a form of torture and exploitation. The owner, Russ McKamey, has defended the experience as a form of "survival horror" that pushes participants to their limits, claiming that no one has completed the experience to this day.

However, many former participants have spoken out against the attraction, describing their experiences as traumatic and violating. Some have accused McKamey of manipulating and gaslighting participants and have criticized the attraction's lack of transparency and oversight.

Exploring the complex issues surrounding McKamey Manor, including the ethics of extreme haunt experiences, the role of consent, and the legal and regulatory challenges posed by extreme attractions- this episode will force you to ask yourself, “how far is too far?”

This week, I explore the life of Elizabeth Bathory, the infamous Hungarian countess who is widely considered to be history's most notorious female serial killer. The legend surrounding Elizabeth, aka Countess Dracula, or The Blood Countess, remains that she was a bloodthirsty killer who tortured and murdered hundreds of young girls (mainly peasants), bathing in their blood in the belief that it would keep her young and beautiful. While it is impossible to know the exact number of The Blood Countess' victims, it is estimated that she may have been responsible for the deaths of up to 650 girls. Elizabeth Bathory remains one of the most intriguing and terrifying figures in history, a woman whose legend has endured for centuries. While the exact truth of her crimes may never be known, the impact she had on history is undeniable. Her story is a reminder of the darkest aspects of human nature and the power of legend to shape our understanding of the past.

When we get divorced, it is overwhelming as hell. Imagine if you had to go through all of that AND get divorced in religious court as well. Imagine if your civil divorce didn’t really matter if your religious divorce wasn’t valid. That is a reality for a lot of women in the Orthodox Jewish Community when their husbands refuse to grant them a get, the religious document needed for divorce according to Jewish Religious Law.

Enter Rabbi Mendel Epstein, aka “The Prodfather.” Leader of the New York Divorce Coercion Gang – a group of rabbis and other Jewish men that kidnapped, assaulted and tortured men that refused to give their wives a get using cattle prods, acid, and other scary objects that nobody, including angry Rabbis, should be wielding.

Brandon Embry was a bright, healthy, 32-year-old man with nothing but opportunity ahead of him. After moving to Asheboro, North Carolina from Washington to be closer to his family in August of 2018, Brandon’s future seemed bright. Why wouldn’t it?

In February of 2019, a bizarre and inexplicable series of health-related events began to plague Brandon. Brandon was sent home from work on a day he was feeling ill and was asked to take a drug test due to his “odd” behavior. Brandon obliged but was transported at the McDonalds he stopped at on the way for breakfast prior to getting the drug screen. The cause? Altered mental status, nausea, vomiting, and severe abdominal pain.

Not long after Brandon is admitted into the emergency department, he goes into respiratory failure and becomes unresponsive. This was just the first of several bizarre health complications that Brandon endured leading up to his passing shortly after his 33rd birthday.

While Asheboro Police Department was quick to close his case, his incredible family had other plans, with his mother, Sarah making it her goal to uncover the truth of what happened to her son, and all of the signs point to a woman who is sketchy as hell. I purposely left you hanging for part two, where Sarah and I will dive into the “mysterious” woman.

After construction workers found Tammy’s partially burned van in a park, New Castle County Police Department uncovered the horrific truth of what happened to the missing pair in her home.

Evidence quickly pointed to Clifford Wright, Tammy’s recent ex-boyfriend - a man with an extensive criminal record, and history of extreme violence towards women.

What happened to Alex VanDalsen?

Alex went missing on the night of February 3rd, 2021. On February 4th, after realizing he was gone, and not at his girlfriend's (which he normally was), his mother Jennifer called 911. It isn't until the 9th... let me repeat that, THE 9TH, that Alex was found.

Alex's death was ruled as a suicide, but I implore you to dig deep, and ask yourself, "do I really think this is a suicide?"

I don't, and I hope you don't either. Get mad, because I am fucking PISSED.

This week we discuss the case that was the inspiration for the movies The Exorcism of Emily Rose, Requiem, and Anneliese the Exorcist Tapes.Anneliese Michel was a devout Roman Catholic from Bavaria that began experiencing seizures, and hallucinations. After seeing several specialists and being diagnosed with epilepsy, her symptoms worsened in 1975. Anneliese began refusing to eat or drink, ate bugs, and developed an intense aversion to any religious items.

Between 1975 to 1976, Anneliese underwent 67 exorcisms conducted by Father Alt and Father Renz, who believed she was possessed. Anneliese and her family believed the same, and Anneliese began praying rigorously to save herself. On July 1st, 1976, Anneliese died from dehydration, starvation, and physical exertion, leading to four individuals getting charged with negligent homicide.

This is a real case, where people lost their lives, people were injured, people lost loved ones.

This week we begin part one of our dive into David Berkowitz (Son of Sam). Born out of wedlock, David was adopted by a Jewish family unable to have children of their own. At a young age, David felt isolated and struggled with depression. Eventually, David begins hearing voices compelling him to kill. David attacked two victims with a knife on Christmas Eve of 1975, but the voices didn’t stop. After acquiring a .44-caliber revolver illegally in the summer of 1976, David begins his reign of terror across New York.

This week we discuss another case that allegedly has some spooky elements, since it’s Halloween until at least October 31st. Brookfield, Connecticut is a quaint, picturesque New England town. But, Brookfield has a sinister history… and by sinister I mean, it unfortunately made history for being the first place in the United States to attempt to use possession by Satan himself as a defense.
Now known as The Devil Made Me Do It case, and the inspiration behind The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It (it was not a good film), we dive into the events leading up to February 16th, 1981, when Arne Johnson brutally murdered his landlord, Alan Bono.

Spoiler alert: The Warrens are involved, again.

This week we discuss the horrible murder of a young, beautiful mother in her Union City apartment. Sparkle Michelle Rai met and fell in love with a young man named Rajeeve "Ricky" Rai. They got married, and had a beautiful baby girl. Everything seemed to be falling into place for Sparkle, until a hired hitman takes her life. Racism, intolerance, lies; once Atlanta cold case detectives take the case, they uncover a story of how Ricky's father, an esteemed math professor who was thought to be dead, is responsible for the murder for hire.

Josh Powell has failed to show up to his second interview with West Valley City Police Department on time, and begins to demonstrate behavior that shows his lack of concern as to where his wife Susan is. Josh leaves West Valley City in a rental car for two days, and moved to his father's home in Puyallup, Washington, days after Susan's disappearance.

Josh, his father Steven, as well as his siblings launch a smear campaign against Susan in an effort to take focus off of Josh. Was Josh's family trying to help him because they believed in his innocence, or were they guilty in their own way, trying to cover their tracks? Listen to part 2 to find out!
