Episode 333: Brad's Bonkers Listener Tale

Well this started as a regular Listener Tale episode where we had a handful of great stories to tell you. What it turned into is an epic journey through one listener's truly harrowing experience in a very haunted home. Brad gets the spotlight today as he brings us through "The happenings" in an old house on a hill. There are deaths, demonic growls, entrapments, creatures hiding in the crawlspace and straight up teleportation (we think? Let us know, Pookie). ENJOY! This was a great tale and we are so thankful Brad shared it with all of us!

Episode 330: The Tragic Murder of Savanna LaFontaine Greywind

Savanna LaFontaine Greywind was about to enter such an exciting time of life. She had just gotten a new job, was working on getting a new apartment with her longtime boyfriend and the two of them together were getting ready to welcome their sweet baby girl, Haisley Jo into the world. Unfortunately, two human garbage piles of muck would take Savanna's life and attempt to take her baby as well. Savanna and her family are Native American people and Savanna's story is sadly another example of how often Indigenous and Native American people, specifically women, are treated and how their stories are not covered in mainstream media. To help fight against this here are some websites with calls to action that we can all get ourselves involved in. If you're so inclined, we thought it would be a nice sentiment to donate to any of the places available via these sites and to do so in Savanna's nameSafe Women, Strong NationsMissing Murdered Indigenous Women Ashton Matheny GoFundMeSavanna's Memorial Facebook pageSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Episode 328: The Circleville Letter Writer

The Circleville Letter writer is a case that will absolutely baffle your brain. In 1976 one of the first letters was delivered to Mary Gillespie and it accused her of being one of the many women supposedly having an affair with the superintendent of schools, Gordon Massie. The letters would continue to be sent, not only to Mary, but to most of the residents and business owners in the town. The letter writer seemed to know everything about everyone and would stop at nothing to take down the people they thought were morally wrong…. As if sending intimidating letters across a city is a moral thing to do. By the end of this a possibly innocent man would be sent to prison, another man would end up dead and Mary would survive an attempt on her life. As always thank you to our sponsors:Rothys: Discover the versatile styles you can wear absolutely anywhere and get $20 off your first purchase at rothys.com/MORBIDBabbel: Right now, save up to 60% off your subscription when you go toBABBEL.com/MORBIDHunter Douglas: VisitHunterDouglas.com/ morbid today for your freeStyleGets Smarter design guide with fresh takes, creative ideas and smart solutions for dressing your windows.Audible: Visit Audible.com/MORBID or text MORBID to 500-500Simplisafe: You can customize the perfect system for your home in just a few minutes at SIMPLISAFE.com/morbid.Go today and claim a free indoor security camera plus 20% off with Interactive MonitoringSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
