Season 1 Episode 26: The Curse of The Chain Strangler

The Curse of The Chain Strangler

1938

In Pulaski County, Kentucky, a man returns home after a long day of working as a carpenter. He enters his home and discovers his wife’s infidelity with another man. Stricken with rage, the man grabs a nearby chain and strangles his wife to death. After the rage subsides and the man realizes what he has done, the man then takes his own life out of guilt.

A classic start to a spooky, fictitious ghost story, right? Well in this case the ghost story may not be all that fictitious. The man being referenced is Carl Pruitt, a carpenter from the early 1900’s whose grave has lived on in infamy after the traumatic events. A grave that was the last place several people would ever venture to before getting into freak accidents - accidents that leave their victims…

Season 1 Episode 25: The Murder of Girl Chew Hossencofft

The Murder of Girl Chew Hossencofft

September 10, 1999

Girly Chew was a Malaysian born immigrant who met the man of her dreams while on vacation in the U.S. in the early 90’s. The man, Diazien Hossencofft, was a thoracic surgeon with degrees from the University of Tokyo and Cornell. The two quickly fell in love and got married, a happy ending… or so Girly thought.

The rest of the story is almost too far fetched to believe - Reptilian Queens, UFO’s, Shadow Governments, and Ninja Swords all play a role in this story. A story that has no ending because as of September 10, 1999, Girly Chew…

Season 1 Episode 24 : The Haunting of Lake Lanier

The Haunting of Lake Lanier

1958

After the construction of the Jerry D. Jackson Bridge, a bridge spanning 1200 feet across the Chattahoochee River in Georgia, two young women plunged their 54’ Ford sedan off the bridge into the newly created Lake Lanier.

Fast forward 18 months. A local fisherman noticed something bobbing in the lake water. Upon further inspection the fisherman realizes that his find was not that of a large catch, but instead a bloated body. The body was unrecognizable; missing toes and, strangely, both hands. Everyone in the town believed that the body belonged to Delia Parker Young, one of the two girls who plunged into the Lakes depths just a year-and-a-half prior.

Over the years the area around Lake Lanier and the Jerry D Jackson Bridge have been the epicenter of many violent accidents, missing people, and strange lights and sounds. However one ghost story is particularly captivating to the public: Many of the locals claim that if you drive across the Jerry D Jackson Bridge at night you will encounter a ghost - a woman wearing a beautiful blue dress, a woman…

Season 1 Episode 23 : Tamam Shud

Tamam Shud

December 1, 1948

On a beach in Adelaide Australia a man is found lying dead against a seawall. The man showed no signs of trauma and was dressed a suit as if he were going to work. Adelaide police quickly took the body to a coroner who found that while there were no external injuries, the man had multiple internal problems including a spleen three times the size of a normal healthy males.

As the investigation into the man’s death continued, more questions were found then answers. Nobody knew who the man was and no items found on his person contained any identifying information. Who was the unknown man? How did he die? And strangest of all: what is the key to the strange note found in a secret pocket inside the mans pants? A note that read…

Sometime between the evening of June 10th and the early morning of June 11, 1912, a horrible crime was committed. A family of six, along with two friends who were spending the night, were murdered by an unknown, axe wielding assailant while they slept. A lengthy investigation ensured and four prime suspects were determined.

While the Villisca Axe Murder is terrifying in isolation, what makes it more disturbing is the events occurring in nearby towns and states at the time. Someone was going through the Midwest committing murders at random but always using the same weapon…

Season 1 Episode 21 : The Buzzer

THE BUZZER

Present Day

All across the globe there are strange radio transmissions being sent from unknown locations for completely unknown reasons. These transmissions include eerie noises, voices, and random strings of numbers and letters being broadcast on specific frequencies. The origin and end goals of these stations are a complete mystery. Some believe it to be a joke, others a government conspiracy, and even a few believe it to be a way of communicating with alien life.

While these Number Stations are disturbing from the outset, there is one that tops them all: a Russian Number Station believed to be a relic of the Soviet Union which is theorized to be a “Dead Mans Switch” in case of catastrophic damage to the Russian Government. It is believed this station will order a retaliatory nuclear attack if the transmission is to end, the transmission known as…
