    91: The Clear Lake Murders: How a Teen Friendship Ended in Tragedy
    Nov 27 2025
    If you’ve ever looked back at your teenage years and thought, “Wow, life was messy… but at least we all made it out,” the Clear Lake murders will hit you right in the chest. It’s one of those stories that sticks, not because of the violence alone, but because of how deeply human—and deeply tragic—it really was.

    87: Haunted Central City: Spirits Beneath the Gold
    Oct 10 2025
    In the quiet hills of Central City, Colorado, lies one of the states most haunted cemeteries-and a dark legacy forged in the nearby Gold Rush mines. In this chilling episode Daphne and Gayle talk about mining disasters, tragic love tales and ghost stories. From fatal mining accidents to the Lady of the Columbines, every grave tells a story of greed, grief, and lingering spirits.
    If you want to skip over the mine story that is more history than anything go to about the 39 minute mark. I dove deep because deep diving is what we do.

    We need a break from murder and death. Although even in legends and mythology you still get murder and death but, it's a little less gut wrenching. Daphne did this great episode on Sirens. It's full of history, mystery, legends and myths, from all over the world.If you want more on Sirens, Daphne will bring us all the scary stories. Being the start of spooky season that's what we need. SCARY, SCARY, SCARY!!!

    85: The Texas Killing Fields... The Eleven... Part 2
    Aug 12 2025
    Wrapping up this sad case. We hate an unsolved. There should always be justice for the victims and their families. In the second part we look into the man who claimed to be responsible for 11 of the 30+ victims found in the area known as the Texas Killing Fields. This guy at very least is total POS but probably is responsible for some of the killings.
