Halloween Horror Stories - Killer clowns and troublemaking cows
It’s Halloween, which means it’s time for candy, costumes, creepy encounters, and apparently, the occasional felony. For our annual Halloween episode, we’re diving into chilling ghostly experiences and real-life crimes committed by people who took the whole “wearing a disguise” thing a little too far. From unexplained paranormal encounters to disturbing crimes that made headlines, we’re exploring why sometimes the scariest monsters aren’t hiding under your bed. They’re walking around in a Halloween costume. So, the next time your doorbell rings on Halloween night, you might want to think twice before opening it. Is that an innocent little trick-or-treater on your porch… or your worst nightmare wearing a $20 Spirit Halloween costume. We’re bringing the tricks, the terror, and enough paranoia to make you turn off your porch light. Support the show

End of Life Dreams and Visions - I see dead people
In this episode, Suzy and Kate explore the fascinating—and sometimes eerie—phenomenon of end-of-life dreams and visions. We discuss research that has been conducted on these experiences, including the common themes reported by people nearing death: vivid dreams, visits from deceased loved ones, visions of familiar places, and an unexpected sense of peace or preparation for what’s coming. We also share real stories from people who witnessed their dying loved ones experiencing these moments firsthand. Were these visions simply the result of changes happening in the brain, a natural part of the dying process, or could they be something we still don’t fully understand? Support the show

Casey Anthony - Universal Studios Employee of the Month (part 2)
Join us this week as we wrap up our discussion about acquitted (but definitely did it) child murderer Casey Anthony. Arrested in October 2008 for the suspected murder of her 2 year old daughter, Caylee Anthony, Casey some how wiggled her way out of consequences, even though it was abundantly clear that she was responsible for the death of her daughter. The prosecution dropped the ball when it came time for trial, and America was furious when Casey Anthony walked free. Come hang out with us while we figure out why exactly the prosecution’s case completely unraveled. Support the show
