A strange Reddit account. A website supposedly selling pictures. And a trail of cryptic messages that had the internet wondering if it had stumbled onto a network of hired killers.This week, we’re digging into Lake City Quiet Pills—one of the internet’s creepiest rabbit holes. What started with an unusual username spiraled into theories about mercenaries, coded job postings, and a possible connection to a real assassination. But how much of this mystery holds up, and how much did internet detectives build themselves?

New England really looked at tuberculosis and said, “We should probably dig up Grandma.” This week, we explore the New England Vampire Panic, when grieving families suspected their dead relatives were feeding on the living—and opened graves, removed hearts, and burned remains to stop them. From Mercy Brown to the fear that fueled these rituals, it’s a disturbing chapter of American history with plenty of Brohio bullshit along the way.

In August 1987, two Arkansas teenagers stumbled into the woods for a midnight hunting trip and walked right into an active, high-stakes drug drop. Hours later, their bodies were laid out across train tracks to be crushed by a freight train. What started as an absurd official ruling of "accidental marijuana stupor" quickly unraveled into a terrifying web of local corruption, a trail of murdered grand jury witnesses, the CIA-linked Mena airport, and state-level protection reaching all the way to the Governor’s Mansion. Join us as we break down the double homicide, the syndicate, and the dark political coverup that shocked the nation.

Ever wondered what happens when you cross the digital gig economy with pure, unadulterated madness? This week, we’re bypassing the wholesome handmade crafts on Etsy to dive into a wild subculture of online spellcasting—where you can Apple Pay your way into obsession love spells, graveyard hexes, or a proxy contract to sell your soul to Lucifer. But it doesn't stop there. We’re also exploring the darkest and dumbest corners of Craigslist, Fiverr, and eBay, from professional breakup proxies and fake paparazzi for hire to bound demon entity listings and haunted dolls with warnings attached. Buckle up, because it gets weird fast.SPONSORS:

Imagine having a secret lover. Now imagine hiding him in your attic crawlspace for nine years while your husband sleeps directly below.

In 1913, Dolly Oesterreich—the wife of a wealthy Milwaukee apron tycoon—seduced a 17-year-old factory mechanic named Otto Sanhuber. To keep the affair alive, Dolly convinced Otto to legally "disappear" and move permanently into her uninsulated attic. For nearly a decade, Otto lived like a subterranean ghost—cleaning, writing pulp fiction, and serving as Dolly's on-demand secret.But when Dolly's husband gets violent, Otto drops down from the ceiling holding two semi-automatic pistols... and things get way weirder from there.From the secret cross-country smuggling of a human being to pistols buried under rosebushes, the La Brea Tar Pits, a rotating carousel of new lovers, and the most outrageous legal loophole in court history, this is a story you have to hear to believe.
