  • Terrifying & True | The Funhouse Mummy: Elmer McCurdy's Horrifying Tale This Halloween
    Oct 6 2025
    This Halloween, jump into the eerie tale of Elmer McCurdy—a true crime deep dive into urban legends and America’s carnival underbelly. In 1976, a seemingly innocuous Halloween haunt took a terrifying turn when a “mannequin” on a Long Beach dark ride wasn’t a prop—it was a real human corpse. In 1976, a TV crew at The Pike’s Laff in the Dark discovered human bone after a stunt arm snapped. Forensics exposed arsenic embalming, a copper bullet jacket, and a 1924 penny with old carnival tickets—breadcrumbs that led to Elmer McCurdy, a bungling Oklahoma train robber killed in 1911. For more than six decades, his body was bought, sold, and exhibited in sideshows and roadside museums, then misfiled as a prop and hung on a ride—until investigators finally confirmed the truth and laid him to rest under concrete in Guthrie (1977).

    This is a true-crime deep dive into America’s carnival underbelly, the commodification of death, and how an outlaw became the Funhouse Mummy.

    Inside this episode:
    • The 1976 discovery at The Pike: the moment the “dummy” bled clues—arsenic, bullet jacket, 1924 penny, tickets.
    • McCurdy’s final heist (1911): the botched robbery, the posse’s shot, and an undertaker who wouldn’t release the body.
    • The carnival con: how promoters “claimed” the corpse and rebranded it coast-to-coast for decades.
    • Forensic ID & burial (1977): the paper trail that ended with concrete sealing a grave in Guthrie, Oklahoma.
    • Ethics & aftermath: why outlaw mummies vanished—and what the case says about spectacle vs. dignity.

    If you’re searching funhouse mummy, Elmer McCurdy, Long Beach funhouse corpse, The Pike Laff in the Dark, outlaw mummy Oklahoma, arsenic embalming, sideshow history, or a true crime podcast about real “haunted” carnivals, this episode is your map. Follow and share for spooky-season specials all October.

    We’re telling that story tonight.

  • Unknown Broadcast | Gavel, Greed & the Web: Six Horror Stories of Knives, Goblets, and Guilt
    Oct 5 2025
    Old-Time Radio (OTR) horror anthology featuring CBS Radio Mystery Theater, Escape, Lights Out, Murder at Midnight, Suspense, and The Whistler—six restored classics in one episode for fans of vintage radio drama, noir thrillers, and classic horror stories.
    Gather close, my dear. The dial warms, the room cools, and the old ghosts speak.
    • ⚖️ Guilty as Charged (CBS Radio Mystery Theater, by G. Frederick Lewis) — A wrongful accusation tightens like a noose as the justice system hisses for blood.
    • 💰🌊 Seeds of Greed (Escape, by Freud A. Nelson) — Treasure glitters; conscience drowns. On a small ship, fortune names its price.
    • 🕷️ Spider (Lights Out) — A carnival of nerves and a creature with too many eyes; some webs are spun from human hunger.
    • 🍷💀 Death’s Goblet (Murder at Midnight, by Sigmund Miller) — A cursed cup passes from hand to hand, and every toast is a tally.
    • 🔪 Two Sharp Knives (Suspense, by Dashiell Hammett) — Small-town secrets, hardboiled logic, and a blade-clean cut to the truth.
    • 🕯️ Dark Pattern(s) (The Whistler) — Motives woven like lace in shadow; the narrator knows what you did… and why.
    Keep the lights low, but not out. Some shapes look back when you stare too long.

Absolutely disgusting that this podcast would spread an Urban Legend from the AIDS epidemic that stigmatized people with the disease. This perpetuates harmful stereotypes and marginalizes an already vulnerable population. Followed this podcast for a long time, not anymore. Grow up. Do better.

Offensive
