  • Terrifying & True | The Acid King Murder: Ricky Kasso, Satanic Panic, and the Killing of Gary Lauwers

    Terrifying & True | The Acid King Murder: Ricky Kasso, Satanic Panic, and the Killing of Gary Lauwers
    Sep 15 2025
    On July 4, 1984, police dogs uncovered a shallow grave in the quiet town of Northport, Long Island. Inside lay the mutilated body of 17-year-old Gary Lauwers—stabbed more than 30 times in a drug-fueled frenzy by his friend Ricky “The Acid King” Kasso. Within days, the story became national news, sparking headlines of Satanic sacrifice and cementing Kasso as the terrifying face of America’s 1980s Satanic Panic.

    But was this really the work of a Satanic cult, or simply the grim fallout of teenage drug abuse, mental illness, and neglect? In this episode of Terrifying & True, we dive deep into the disturbing murder in Aztakea Woods, Ricky Kasso’s descent into drugs and occult posturing, and how the media turned one horrific killing into a nationwide moral hysteria.

    We’ll examine:
    • The brutal murder of Gary Lauwers and Kasso’s infamous demand, “Say You Love Satan.”
    • How the case fueled the fire of the Satanic Panic sweeping America.
    • The media’s sensational claims versus the grim reality of drugs, rage, and tragedy.
    • The trial of Jimmy Troiano and the lasting legacy of the “Acid King” myth.

    From grave robbing to cult rumors, from teenage rebellion to national paranoia, this is the chilling true story of Ricky Kasso, the Acid King of Northport.
    We’re telling that story tonight.

  • Unknown Broadcast | Dark Destinies and Long Nights: Five Horror Stories of Death and Fate

    Unknown Broadcast | Dark Destinies and Long Nights: Five Horror Stories of Death and Fate
    Sep 14 2025
    My dear, the night is a ledger—debits in blood, credits in whispers. Stars tilt the scale, luck frays at the edge, and footsteps in the dark always find their way to a door you don’t want to open.

    Tonight, five vintage radio chillers trace the thin line between chance and destiny—perfect for fans of classic old-time radio anthologies and atmospheric suspense.

    ✨ Death in the Stars
    A ruthless horoscope foretells the end for a powerful matriarch. Pride meets prophecy as ambition, family, and fate collide on Mystery Theater (written by Ian Martin, starring Kim Hunter).

    🌙 The Long Night
    A man trapped by fear, fog, and ticking minutes. Suspense tightens the noose as Frank Lovejoy leads a nerve-jangling race against inevitability.

    🍀 Lucky Night
    You thought fate finally smiled… then The Whistler arrived. Luck turns lethal when a “sure thing” spirals into confession and consequence.

    🚶 I Walk in the Night
    A restless soul and a city that never sleeps. From Mystery Playhouse, a nocturnal confession unfolds—introduced as “I Walk in the Night,” credited in-show to Emil Teppelman.

    🕯️ Dark, Dark Destiny
    Inside the Inner Sanctum, temptation beckons and a decent man descends. “Raymond” opens the door; destiny slams it shut.

    So listen closely, my dear. Stars are far, but doom walks beside us.

  • Cutting Deep into Horror | Fire in the Sky (1993) — Alien Abduction, Trauma & Small-Town Panic

    Cutting Deep into Horror | Fire in the Sky (1993) — Alien Abduction, Trauma & Small-Town Panic
    Sep 12 2025
    Fire in the Sky (1993) explained — the chilling alien-abduction film based on Travis Walton’s true story. On Cutting Deep into Horror, hosts Henrique Couto and Rachael Redolfi break down why the UFO sequence still shocks, how director Robert Lieberman builds dread, and where movie dramatization diverges from the real Arizona logging-crew case. We compare the film to Walton’s account, spotlight the cast (D.B. Sweeney, Robert Patrick, James Garner), and dig into small-town paranoia, survivor trauma, hypnosis testimony, and the 90s UFO boom.

    Inside this episode

    • Fire in the Sky true story vs. film — what’s verified and what’s contested.
    • Abduction set-piece breakdown: production design, practical effects, and sound that still terrify.
    • Performance notes: Sweeney’s vulnerability, Patrick’s stoicism, Garner as relentless investigator.
    • Themes & context: guilt, media pressure, and why the case haunts pop culture.
    • Legacy: how a cult classic shaped alien-abduction horror for the 90s and beyond.
    Is Fire in the Sky a true story?
    Yes. It’s based on Travis Walton’s 1975 abduction claim; the film dramatizes events for storytelling.

    Where to watch (U.S.) right now
    • Free (with ads): Pluto TV (availability rotates).
    • Rent/Buy: Prime Video, Apple TV, Fandango at Home (Vudu), and Paramount Movies.

    If you’re into alien-abduction horror, true-story thrillers, and 90s cult classics, queue this episode—sharp analysis, cultural context, and craft talk with a few laughs and plenty of goosebumps.
