4/15/2026
You remember them from childhood—sweet melodies sung before sleep, an intriguing yarn your parents told to chase away the dark. But what if these songs and stories actually stemmed from darkness? What if the seemingly innocent rhymes and fairytales we still spread today were never meant for children's ears? Today, we peel back the soft, comforting veil of these stories to find what’s whispering beneath: plagues, betrayal, grim warnings, and violence. Forget happily ever after.

Truly Twisted: The Black Dahlia

4/8/2026
On January 15, 1947, a mother walking her child in a vacant Los Angeles lot discovered what she initially thought was a discarded mannequin, tragically it was the body of Elizabeth Short. She had been severed at the waist and drained of blood—a crime so theatrical and gruesome it changed the American media forever. In this episode, we peel back the layers of the "Black Dahlia" myth and the top suspects of who could be responsible. This week Kaydra from Perplexity A Mystery Podcast is on the mic to help unpack this infamous case.

S4 Ep13: Episode 172: Crop Circles ft Lets Get Haunted

4/1/2026
On August 22nd, 1678 in Hartfordshire, a piece would be published in a local newspaper titled “The Mowing Devil.” The drawing consisted of a series of concentric rings of crops. In the middle stood a devil wielding a scythe. The pamphlet then told a strange tale. A farmer refused to pay a worker to mow his oat field, swearing he would rather the devil himself mow it. Some argue this was the very first documentation of what has become one of the most iconic symbols of alien activity. According to websites that track this phenomenon, more than 12,000 of these geometric patterns have been reported and in more than 60 countries. Today we are stepping into these fields — where the stalks bend, the patterns form, and the explanations vanish into thin air. Across quiet countrysides and moonlit plains, strange geometric shapes have appeared seemingly overnight — carved into the earth with precision no human hand could easily match. Some say it’s a message… a cosmic signature left by visitors from the great beyond. Others whisper about secret military technology, government conspiracy, or forces of nature we’ve never dared to understand. But one thing is certain — when the dew settles and the dawn light hits the fields, something is watching back. So are these puzzling spirals a hoax? A government conspiracy? Or proof of alien life? Today’s perplexing episode is all about crop circles! Check out Let's Get Haunted ------ WAYS TO SUPPORT & CONNECT: Join the Patreon for perks and ad free episodes!

S4 Ep12: Episode 171: PART 2- Dorothea Puente

3/25/2026
In November 1988, a social worker showed up on Dorothea Puente’s doorstep, in Sacramento, CA just one mile from the Capitol and the Hall of Justice. The social worker, Judy Moise, was looking for one of Puente’s tenants, 51 year old Bert Montoya. He had stopped showing up to his social work meetings and this was his last known address. Dorothea left Judy Moise on high alert. Something about this situation and her demeanor did not feel right. Judy would end up contacting police, who arrived soon after with shovels. This would lead to days of digging in the back garden and a nearly 30 year secret finally coming to light. Beneath the flowers and apricot trees in this Sacramento garden, and behind the lace curtains in Dorothea’s windows, something sinister was happening. This is part 2 of the story of the Death House Land Lady, and female serial killer Dorothea Puente. ------ WAYS TO SUPPORT & CONNECT: Join the Patreon for perks and ad free episodes!

S4 Ep11: Episode 170: PART 1- Dorothea Puente

3/18/2026
Imagine a quiet, tree-lined street in downtown Sacramento in the 1980s. This is F Street and at 1426 sits a small 2 story powder blue Victorian boarding house. The homeowner is a pillar in her community. Well respected and kind. She tends her garden, hands out cookies, and promises vulnerable people a safe place to stay. To local charities and social workers, she’s a hero who takes in those no one else will. But beneath the flowers and apricot trees in her garden, and behind the lace curtains in those windows, something sinister is happening. This truth would come to light on Nov 11, 1988 when police would arrive at the home, searching for missing 51 year old Bert Montoya. This boarding house was Montoya’s last known address. Little did police know this disappearance would lead them to an elderly female serial killer. Rumors of suspicious activity in the homeowner’s back garden led police to dig. They would ultimately find the human remains of 7 victims. In today’s episode, we’re exploring how a grandmotherly caretaker became one of America’s most infamous serial killers, known as the “Death House Landlady.” We’ll walk through her troubled past, the twisted schemes she used to target society’s most vulnerable, and the investigation that finally exposed the horrors hidden at 1426 F Street. If you lived in Sacramento, CA in the 80s, you’ll recognize this name. She is one of the most infamous female serial killers in the U.S. This is the story of Dorothea Puente. ------ WAYS TO SUPPORT & CONNECT: Join the Patreon for perks and ad free episodes!

Today, we’re taking a journey to the heart of New Orleans — a city whose rhythm, flavor, and soul are deeply rooted in Black history. You’ll hear about traditions that have turned resistance into celebration and survival into art. In part 2 of this episode, I’m going to tell you the very dark tale of Madame Delphine LaLaurie and hopefully help you separate the fact from the folklore. This week, we discuss black history, folklore, traditions, and twisted tales from New Orleans, Louisiana. ------ WAYS TO SUPPORT & CONNECT: Join the Patreon for perks and ad free episodes!

1/28/2026
In 1993, the US Government served a search warrant against religious leader David Koresh. Koresh had been at the Mt Carmel Center in Waco, TX with a number of followers, including men, women, and children. The group had been stockpiling weapons and recently the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms and Explosives known as the ATF had received a tip regarding illegal weapons on the premises. The ATF would arrive guns blazing… leading to a 51 day stand off, the largest gunfight on US soil since the Civil War, and arguably one of the biggest news stories in the world. This is the story of the Branch Davidian Compound and David Koresh.

S4 Ep3: Episode 162: The Manhattan Alien Abduction

1/21/2026
Thousands have reported alien sightings over the years… but few have gained as much notoriety as this one. On the evening of November 30th, 1989, Linda Napolitano would claim she was abducted by aliens from her 12th floor lower Manhattan apartment. In 2024, Netflix released a 3 part series analyzing the evidence and the scrutiny. Linda maintains her story to this day. So the question is… was this unbelievable event an elaborate hoax, or proof of alien life? This is the story of Linda Napolitano and the Manhattan Alien Abduction.

S4 Ep2: Episode 161: The Keddie Cabin Murders- Part 2

1/14/2026
On the cold spring morning of April 12, 1981, the quiet mountain town of Keddie, California, was changed forever by a quadruple homicide so heinous it seemed unbelievable. Decades later, the Keddie cabin murders remain a haunting puzzle, full of chilling theories, potential cover-ups, and questions no one has been able to answer. So today, we return to Cabin 28— trying to piece together unsettling clues and the stories these cabin walls left behind… searching for truth in a case where silence and shadows have survived longer than justice ever has. Today we conclude this 2 part series, discussing prime suspects and theories.

S3 Ep52: Episode 159: The Unsolved Murder of Judy Rawlings

12/31/2025
TW/CW: sexual assault and murder of a child A brutal and unsolved murder of a 16 year old girl left residents of a small town in North Carolina completely dismantled. At first glance, little is found about this cold case online. But the further I dug, the more disturbed I became. Despite multiple suspects being looked at, eyewitnesses coming forward, and boxes of damning evidence, to this day no one has ever been arrested or charged for this murder. The victim’s loved ones are still searching for answers. This is the story of the murder of Judy Rawlings.
