#470 - Friday The 13th - Panhandle, Texas
This week, in Panhandle, Texas, a young man, who idolizes Ted Bundy, Jack The Ripper & Charles Manson, decides that Friday the 13th is the perfect time to go out on a blood thirsty spree, before reciting a satanic incantation, then ending his own life. Only, he can't remember the incantation, so he just confesses to a horrible night of brutality, that leaves the innocent dead, or scarred, and a small town, freaking out over satanists, hunting blond children!! Along the way, we find out that the best way to dispose of a car, is to bury the front end in the ground, that some people can't tell the difference between movies & reality, and that you should ALWAYS write down your satanic suicide incantation, just in case you need it!!

#469 - A Quantity Of Horror - Big Lake Township, Minnesota
This week, in Big Lake Township, Minnesota, the horrible & gruesome discovery of a murder leads police in circles, with the case quickly going cold. There is plenty of DNA, but it doesn't match any of the suspects. After almost 10 years, a witness comes forward with the smallest of tips, that leads to a local Cub Scout leader, with an interesting past, and a very strange story, that doesn't quite add up. Will scientific findings put the whole case in jeopardy? Along the way, we find out that it would be hard to run while carrying potatoes, that "a quantity" is the grossest way to describe an amount of a bodily fluid, and that its hard to fight science... until the scientist is wrong!!

A very surprising conclusion is made, leading detectives down a rabbit hole of one man's depravity! Along the way, we find out that Peggy Lee was apparently a singer, that no matter how weird someone seems, DNA will tell all, and that changing your name can't erase all the awful things you've done from existence!!

#465 - Chainsaws, Torsos & Murder Tacos - Davenport, Iowa
This week, in Davenport, Iowa, an unhappy woman disappears, without a trace, but it's impossible to tell if she just ran off, or if something terrible has happened to her. When part of a torso, that has been cut up with a chainsaw is found in the river, cops think it's her, but also spread conspiracy theories. Will they be able to convict anyone, with no physical evidence? When we do find out what happened, it involves a murder weapon that we haven't come across yet! Along the way, we find out that chiropractors can be scary, that cops shouldn't randomly float conspiracy theories in the local newspaper, and that someone may very well be playing a game, with a murder weapon!!

Along the way, we find out that you need to eat chili when it's ten below zero, outside, that people tend to know their own father's voice, and that the sketch of a suspect, probably shouldn't look like the sketch artist!

This week, in Richmond, Vermont, a terrible person, keeps doing absolutely terrible things, but repeatedly slips through the legal cracks.

Will he slip the cracks, one more time?? Along the way, we find out that pizza places like to use the word "Papa" in their names, that there are some things you just can't blame on your childhood, and sometimes, you absolutely can tell a man's future, from his past!!

This week, in Ashburnham, Massachusetts, a young man attempts to reunite with his high school flame, only to find her to be a much different person than he remembered. She is now a dominatrix, who keeps vials of other people's human blood, along with animal organs, and all sorts of other creepy things. When a cruel & bloody murder takes place, one of them has a story to tell, but it's not likely that anyone will believe them! Along the way, we find out that not all music lineups are created equal, that just because you're lonely, it doesn't mean you should hang out with anyone who is willing, and if you ride a Peloton, you probably won't stumble across a horrbly murdered corpse!!
