The Phone Booth

We can all agree that relationships can be messy and complicated. That seems like an understatement for this stranger than fiction story of love and betrayal. Let’s go back to the 90s!

Mad Medicine: Bloodletting, Blubber, and Birth Control

Ever heard of the rheumatism hotel? Wondered how George Washington really died? Considered adorning your bosom with weasel testicles? We certainly hadn’t. As it turns out, medicine was once more of an art than a science. After this episode, you'll be eternally grateful that someone figured out that science part.

The Kansas City Butcher

Got the Morbs takes on its first serial killer case (with an Ohio connection). This is one of the most brutal stories we’ve told to date - not just for the murders but for the prolonged torture these poor victims endured. This is the story of the Kansas City Butcher.

Daniel LaPlante

Once upon a time, in rural Massachusetts, a creepy, stinky teenage boy called Danny escalated from petty theft to stalking to triple homicide in the span of two years. This is his story.

Matthew Hoffman: The Leaf Killer of Mount Vernon

A case with three gruesome murders and one twisted abduction from our home state of Ohio. We promise you’ll never look at a pile of crisp autumn leaves in the same way again. P.S. We have an update on the Villisca murder bacon, courtesy of a patron and a former butcher we met at a bar recently. (It’s a little worse than we thought.)
