Stretching across 22% of the state of New Jersey, the Pine Barrens is a vast reserve of wilderness. If you’re from New Jersey, you’ve likely heard the stories this Jersey Devil, said to stalk the Pine Barrens for nearly three centuries. Part bat, part beast, and all terror, it’s a tale that begins as early as 1735. The legend tells of a woman, giving birth to a child which then turned into a grotesque monster, with features such as bat like wings, claws for hands and deer-like antlers. Throughout the 1800s, sightings trickled in — farmers finding mutilated livestock, travelers glimpsing a flying creature, hunters hearing unidentifiable screeches through the trees. But it was January of 1909 that shook the region. For six straight days, panic gripped New Jersey as thousands reported encounters with this beastly creature, including Police officers. Even now, the legend is alive with people still reporting sightings of the Jersey Devil. So, is the Jersey Devil real? Or is it just a tale twisted through generations — folklore born of fear and kept alive by the darkness in the trees?

It was supposed to be the trip of a lifetime. In the summer of 2014, 28-year-old Lars Mittank left Germany for the very first time. He and five of his closest friends were headed to the sun-soaked beaches of Varna, Bulgaria — to the stunning Golden Sands Resort. Days were spent lounging by the Black Sea. Nights turned electric with music, drinks, and stories. But one night, everything changed. Lars got into a heated argument with a group of men at a bar. Nothing physical — just words. But later that same night, he was attacked. No one knows for sure if it was the same men, but Lars walked away with a ruptured eardrum. He was supposed to fly home the next morning but doctors at a local clinic advised him not to board the plane. Flying could make the injury worse. So Lars made a decision: he’d stay behind alone for a few more days while he healed. That’s when things took a darker turn. Just hours after his friends flew back to Germany, Lars called his mother. His voice trembled. He said people were after him — that he was being followed, and they were getting closer. Paranoia seemed to grip him out of nowhere. And then… he vanished. Lars Mittank was last seen on CCTV, sprinting out of Varna Airport. He ran out of frame — and out of the lives of everyone who knew him. He has never been seen since. Join us as we unravel the mystery of the man who disappeared without a trace — in a foreign land, under mysterious circumstances — and has remained missing for over a decade.

Pepperell, Massachusetts is a small, suburban town located in Middlesex County, known for its picturesque New England charm. Frank Bowen and his daughters Tina and Karen made their home in Pepperell. Just one year prior, they'd lost their wife and mother to a cruel and lingering battle with cancer. Frank, now a single father, was struggling—working long hours to keep a roof over their heads, often leaving the girls alone in the house. The girls, in their grief, tried reaching out to their mother—pleading for a sign. What they got... was something else entirely. At first, Frank dismissed their stories of these random noises and odd occurrences. Grief does strange things to the mind. But then came that night—December, 1986—when everything changed. After being tormented by these strange occurrences for months, the Bowens came face to face with what was causing the nightmare, but it was nothing like they expected. The Bowens were the victims of a sick mind. This sick mind would also go on to ruin the Gustafson family in the most horrific way imaginable.

Deep in the ancient waterways of Xochimilco, lies a place that most people would never dare to tread. This is the infamous Isla de las Muñecas, the Island of the Dolls. It all began in the mid-20th century when a man named Don Julian Santana Barrera, sought refuge on this island. But what he didn’t know is that the island that seemed like the perfect escape had long been home to something far darker. One day shortly after his arrival, Don stumbled upon a horrifying sight—a lifeless young girl, the cause of death a tragic drowning. As if answering a twisted call, a child’s doll appeared on the water’s surface, drifting aimlessly toward Don. He assumed it must have been the drowned girls, and so he hung the doll from a tree, thinking it would honor her memory. That night and every night after that, the spirit of the little girl began to visit him. Desperate to appease her restless soul, Don began collecting more dolls. But these dolls did not bring peace. Instead, they seemed to attract more... unwanted visitors. Don would often speak of shadowy figures, disembodied voices and unexplainable noises. Were these the spirits that had always haunted the island, or had they been awakened by the dolls themselves? Even decades after Don’s passing, all that remains today are the dolls, hanging from every tree, their lifeless eyes always staring. Tune in if you dare, to hear the chilling tale of the Island of the Dolls—where the past never truly dies, and the dolls... never stop watching.

A woman’s resilience is a powerful testament to the strength of the human spirit, especially when dealing with pure evil. Lois Pearson, a 62-year-old woman, had always found peace in her solitary life in the charming town of Weatherford, Texas. Nestled on her quiet property, she embraced a life of simplicity and devotion, her faith guiding her every step. Never having married or had children, Lois was content in the rhythms of her own company, finding comfort in the stillness of her days. But in 2011, the tranquility she had carefully crafted for herself was abruptly disturbed by the return of Jeffrey Maxwell, a former neighbor, who she hadn’t seen for 6 years. For 12 days this woman experienced unimaginable torture in what investigators called a house of horrors, until she was finally rescued. Lois’s story shocked the country when it went to trial. This usual quiet woman was LOUD when she described every horrifying detail she experienced. Lois Pearson is an icon of strength and courage for all, proving that even those living modest lives have a fire within them, making them an unstoppable force.

Hello everyone welcome to our second bonus episode. This episode Kayla and I will be discussing the heartbreaking case of Emily Pike. Emily Pike was a 14 year old beautiful soul and a member of the San Carlos Apache Native American tribe in Arizona. Towards the end of January of this year 2025, Emily went missing from the group home she was currently residing in near Phoenix, AZ. After weeks of no contact with anyone, the Bureau of Indian Affairs recovered her remains on February 14, 2025 on the side of a highway in Gila County. Very little is known at this time regarding how she came to meet her untimely fate. People around the country are heartbroken and outraged, alongside Emily’s family. Vigils have been held in Arizona, Wisconsin and Colorado, just to name a few, in Emily’s memory. These are all attempts to bring awareness not only to Emily Pike and to bring her justice but to bring awareness to the crisis surrounding the disappearance and murder of Native American women around the country.

Imagine the odds of meeting someone with the exact same name as you. It’s a rare event, right? It depends on how unique your name is, but even so, it's unlikely. Now, picture this: meeting someone in your same city who shares your name. The odds just got slimmer. But what if I told you that the impossible happened? Two women, both named Mary Morris, living in the same city, and tragically murdered just days apart from one another. That sounds like something straight out of a murder mystery novel, doesn’t it? Something so bizarre it couldn’t possibly be real. But for the families of Mary Lou Morris and Mary McGinnis Morris, this wasn’t fiction—it was their reality. In October of 2000, both women left their homes, never to return. And despite 25 years of searching, their families are still waiting for answers. Were the murders connected? Could a serial killer have been responsible? Or was it something darker—a hitman’s mistake? Tune in as we dive into the chilling story of the murders of two women who shared the name Mary Morris. Maybe someone out there holds the key to unraveling this mystery. Or maybe, just maybe, you do.

When you hear “most haunted nightclub in America”, many will instantly think of Bobby Mackey’s Music World. The original location in Wilder, Kentucky, has long been clouded in darkness. It began as a distillery and makeshift slaughterhouse, where countless cattle met their tragic end. But the horrors didn’t stop there. After the distillery closed, rumors came about that the land became a site for satanic rituals—some which included gruesome animal and even human sacrifices. Over the years, the area was marked by violent and horrific events—none more chilling than the beheading of a pregnant woman and the suicide of a dancer. In 1978, Bobby Mackey, a country music singer with dreams of owning a bar, purchased the building. Soon after the bar’s opening, Bobby’s wife Janet, the staff, and patrons began to experience unexplainable and sometimes violent occurrences. The hauntings that had plagued the property for decades seemed to have followed them into the bar. It’s said that the spirits of the past—and perhaps even demons—now roam Bobby Mackey’s Music World, scaring anyone who dares to enter, forever tethered to the land’s dark and haunted history. Did evil truly reside in the now demolished Bobby Mackey’s Music World?

In a world where statistics paint a sobering picture—nearly 1 in 2 women and more than 2 in 5 men will experience intimate partner violence at some point in their lives—one mother’s love and wisdom would be tested in the most unimaginable way. Adrienne Bass knew what it was like to see her child in an unhealthy relationship. She understood the impulse to intervene, to tell her daughter that she deserved better, to push for her to leave. But through her own painful experience, Adrienne knew something deeper: pushing too hard could drive a wedge between them. She didn’t want to lose her daughter—she knew that sometimes, love meant patience. It was 2021 when Adrienne’s daughter, Emily Jean, and her husband, Joseph, planned a trip to Bolton, Vermont. It was meant to be a fresh start, a celebration of their one-year anniversary, and an attempt to mend the cracks in their marriage. But that trip, meant to heal, would end in horror. Joseph returned alone. Emily Jean was gone. His story? That they’d gotten into an argument, and Emily had decided to take an Uber back to New Hampshire. But Emily never showed up. No one heard from her. No one saw her. What happened to Emily?

In August of 2013, Bryce Laspisa, a 19-year-old college student in California, vanished without a trace. After breaking up with his girlfriend randomly, Bryce set out to drive back to his apartment 90 miles away, or so everyone thought. The next day however, he was in a completely different area, closer to his parents house than his apartment. After extremely bizarre behavior for HOURS and the help from a good Samaritan, Bryce was back on the road seemingly towards his parent’s. When Bryce’s car was found crashed and abandoned the next morning, a frantic search ensued, but no clues emerged to explain his sudden disappearance. Theories ran wild - some suspect foul play, others wonder if it was a tragic mental health crisis, or even if Bryce chose to disappear on his own. Despite all the efforts to find him, Bryce Laspisa's fate remains a mystery, and he has never been seen again. Some would say losing a loved one to death is the worst pain imaginable, however the families of the missing would tell you the not knowing is much worse.

If anyone has any details on the disappearance or whereabouts of Bryce Laspisa, please call Los Angeles County Sheriff 323 890 5500 or Crime Stoppers at (800) 222-TIPS
