They take on a new existence as graves, monuments, and mausoleums to the individuals who lost their lives on board.
But some shipwrecks are more than that.
So get comfortable my spooky friends…you are about to hear the tale of of shipwrecks that are said to not just be a snapshot in a fateful moment of time, but also are the home of something darker.

There is a type of female killer that has become so infamous that they have their own nickname - the black widow. This name comes from the Black Widow spider that are found all over the world. They are considered to be the most venomous type of spiders found in the United States, so people are naturally not big fans of them even though people rarely die from their bites.
But it wasn’t due to their venom that these spiders are compared to deadly female killers. It is actually because of a a widely circulated myth that the females of the species eat their mates after sexual contact. While this actually does happen sometimes; this isn’t regular behaviour. This didn’t stop this falsehood persisting today, and now being attached to women who decide to murder their lovers.
These women are a lot more dangerous than their spider counterparts, and are known to act out their anger, sociopathic tendencies, or desire for financial gains by killing their husbands, boyfriends, or both. One of the most famous was a woman who immigrated to the United States in 1881. It is said she killed over forty people, but the murderess herself disappeared without a trace.
So get comfortable my spooky friends…you are about to hear the tale Belle Gunness, the black widow of the American midwest. But before we get started, I do need to give you all a heads up. Today we will be speaking about the murders of both adults and children, along with graphic crime scenes. Listener discretion is advised.

There are many types of of sweetener that a person can choose from. Some come in granular form like sugar, while others come in a syrup form like corn syrup. Another is molasses which is considered to be a liquid sugar that contains sucrose, and small amounts of fructose and glucose. It isn’t sweet like refined sugar, and is usually thicker and stickier than other liquid based sweeteners.
Molasses is the ingredient that makes brown sugar brown, and gives its flavour and moisture. It is also used to give moisture and consistency to many different bakery items like cookies, gingerbread, and pies. It gives thickness to baked beans, and sauces, and it is also used in distilling rum. It used to be the primary sweetener used until refined sugar pushed it towards the back of people’s cupboards. In the year 1919; molasses was everywhere.
But in Boston, Massachusetts in the United States; saying that molasses was everywhere is an understatement. It is because of molasses that twenty one individuals died, and an additional one hundred and fifty were injured in a disaster that is still spoken about today.
So get comfortable my spooky friends…you are about to hear the tale of the Great Molasses Flood.

In 2009; a psychological horror film was released that changed this horror subgenera forever. The movie called “The Orphan” tells the tale of a couple who’s marriage became strained after the stillbirth of their third child. This loss was very hard on the family, and as a way to move forward the couple decided to adopt a nine year old Russian girl named Esther from a local orphanage. The couple’s oldest son Daniel resents the family’s new addition, while their five year old daughter Max embraces having a new sister.
This is where things start to get strange. Esther starts exhibiting hostile behaviour towards animals and school mates, and she seems to have knowledge of someone older than her. When Sister Abigail from the orphanage decides to come to the house to check in on Esther, this is when the couple finds out that tragic events and incidents always occur around her. One of these was the deaths of Esther’s previous adoptive parents.
After a whole lot of bad happens, the family learns that Esther is not a nine year old girl after all, but actually is a thirty three year old woman who suffers from proportional dwarfism. She had spent her life posing as a child, and she was actually a violent serial killer who has murdered at least seven people.
Now…I am not going to ruin the movie for those who did not see it, but this one is a definite must see. The plot was very different for its time, but what most people don’t know is that this terrifying tale is actually based on a true story.
So get comfortable my spooky friends…you are about to hear the real story behind the horror film: The Orphan. But before we get started; just a little heads up…in this episode we will be speaking about child abuse, cannibalism, and sexual abuse. Listener discretion is advised.

The original movie “Scream” from the Scream horror movie series is considered to be a classic. It is a slasher film directed by Wes Craven that stars some big names like Neve Campbell, David Arquette, Courteney Cox, Drew Barrymore, Rose McGowan, and more. It is set in a small American town named Woodsboro, and the movie starts with our heroine, Sidney Prescott, played by Neve Campbell. It is the anniversary of her mother’s murder, and it’s that day that Sidney and her friends become the targets of a masked serial killer known as Ghostface.
This movie is considered to be one of the best horror and slasher movies ever made, and it is credited for bringing back the horror genre when it started to decline in the 1990s. It made it acceptable for A list actors to take roles in horror films, which pushed these types of movies to the top of the box office today. But did you know that this movie was inspired by real life events?
Get comfortable my spooky friends…you are about to hear about the serial killer who inspired the famous Ghostface. But before we get started, you do need a heads up here.

In the old section of Edinburgh, Scotland is a place now known as the Royal Mile. This is a succession of streets that form the main thoroughfare of the Old Town of the city. It runs between two important locations concerning the royal history of Scotland: Edinburgh Castle, and the Holyrood Palace. This used to be the original main street, and off this are small alleyways and courtyards to the north and south.
These alleyways are called a close, which is an old Scottish term for entry, court, or alleyway. A close is considered to be private property versus wind’s which are an open thoroughfare. Because of fear of English attacks from previous wars; the closes in Edinburgh had very dense housing. They are narrow with tall buildings on each side with the poorer living at the bottom, and the rich living up top.
Mary King Close is located underneath the Edinburgh City Chambers on the Royal Mile, and is currently is being used as a tourist attraction. This is due in part to its reputation for hauntings since at least the 17th century, and it is said to be quite the paranormal hot spot.
So snuggle in my spooky friends…you are about to hear the story of Mary King’s Close: The Original House of Horrors. But before we get started today, we wanted to give you a bit of a warning. In today’s episode, there are descriptions of graphic deaths and illnesses. Listener discretion is advised.

The Amber Alert system is a messaging alert system that notifies the public, and asks for their help in cases of very concerning or life threatening cases of missing children. This system started in the United States, and is currently in multiple countries around the world. The goal of Amber Alerts are to quickly disseminate relevant information about a disappearance through a variety of sources including television, radio, and even personal cellphones to increase the chances of finding a missing child.
Studies show that in 76% of child abduction cases, the child is killed within three hours after their disappearance. This system is a way to have as many people aware of a situation as possible; in hopes that someone will see something to bring a missing child home safely. As of January 2, 2023; 1127 children were brought home through the United States Amber Alert system. But sadly; the little girl that this system was named after did not have this fate.
So get comfortable my spooky friends…you are about to hear the sad story behind the creation of the Amber Alert System. But before we start today, I must give you a warning. In today’s episode we will be talking about murder, child abduction, and graphic crime scenes. Listener discretion is advised.

After speculating for a moment on what would earn a lady that title, I asked my mom, “Are you sending me a story idea?” She said she was. So Mom…today’s episode is for you.

Winston Churchill was a man very well known in history. He was a British statesman, public speaker, and author who was Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1940 to 1945, and from 1951 to 1955. He rallied his people during World War II, and helped lead his country to victory. But after he rose in political prominence before World War I; Winston gained the reputation of having erratic judgement at times. People started distancing themselves from him until his response to Adolf Hitler’s actions helped develop a coalition with the United States and Russia. But after that relationship broke down; Winston was the one who warned the western world of the expansionist threat of the Soviet Union. This changed the geopolitical landscape of the world forever.
Winston was considered to be an honourable, charming, but a stubborn man. He was known to be defiant, arrogant, and a bit conceded. He was never afraid to take a risk, but he also stood firm on his beliefs. That’s why many think that he became a supporter of a woman known as the last person in Britain convicted as a witch…Helen Duncan.
So snuggle in my spooky friends…you are about to hear the tale of how former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill became forever linked to a legal case of wartime witchcraft.

There are a lot of different cult leaders out there, but many of them have a lot of the same characteristics. They are able to bind their followers to them by shared belief and practices. They boost their societal status by projecting dominance over others, either physically or mentally. They often display arrogance, and share their controversial views to gain followers. Now a great example of this is a man who the press has called the “chiseled charlatan”.

Halloween has been around for more than a thousand years. Originally a religious observance, it has evolved over the centuries until its religious practices have all but disappeared. Today, Halloween is considered to be a holiday for dress-up and fun.
Halloween's origins have been traced back to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain. It was believed that on that day; the souls of the dead returned to their homes, so people dressed up in costumes and lit bonfires to ward off the spirits.
Today on Halloween; the voices of Darkcast Network will tell you the tales behind the Halloween traditions of today.

Double, double toll and trouble; Fire burn and caldron bubble... Witches are one of the most popular Halloween costumes out there. But why?

This along with a combination of other traditions across the millennia led to witches becoming a symbol of the holiday that celebrates the macabre.
Today; the voices of Darkcast Network are telling the tales of witches through the centuries...and maybe a vampire too!

Telling ghost stories is a tradition during the month of October. Some do this by sitting in a circle on the floor with the lights off. Others venture to their local cemetery on a moonlit night. Either way - people feel the tension in the air, and a hint of nervous excitement for the ghoulish tales to be told.
When people hear a ghost story; many don't believe that it can be true. But then in their mind, they start to wonder...what if it is true? What if the dark and mysterous things people say hide in the dark exist? Are these stories real, or are they just stories? But during Halloween all these questions seem to fall away. It is the time of year that these tales give us a scare, and make us wonder: what would we do if what happens in these tales happened to me?
So join us in our virtual circle, and listen to ghostly tales told by the voices of the Darkcast Network. One of the tales you will hear today is my own, and yes...it is true. So...listen on...if you dare.

He was considered to be a one man “think tank”, who was a visionary of the Elizabethan court.

Many people world wide believe in the existence of aliens. In recent polls; two thirds of both Americans and Canadians believe that there is intelligent life that exists on other planets. Scholars believe that public fascination with UFOs started in 1947 after a pilot flying in Washington state reported seeing disc-shaped objects in the sky with him. In the next decade; people thought that aliens were mostly benevolent intelligent beings, who came to our planet to offer advice or warnings.
Then came an event in September of 1961 that is considered to be the start of the public’s fascination concerning extraterrestrials. One night a couple was driving in the mountains of New Hampshire, and they saw a flying object in the sky. This is just the beginning of the event that still captivates people today.
So hunker down my spooky friends…you are about to hear the tale of the abduction of Betty and Barney Hill.

Both in the past and today; droughts cause massive problems. It can cause poor quality, or shortages of drinking water. It can impact air quality as dry conditions can result in dust in the air. It also can result in forest fires.
A lack of rain can also cause low crop yields, which impacts food prices and can create food shortages. It also can cause an increase of disease, such as the West Nile virus that is carried by mosquitoes that breed in stagnant water. When there is a drought; many will go to extremes to try to find a way to make the rain fall. When California found itself in this situation 108 years ago; they were desperate, so they hired a rainmaker. The thing is that this may have worked! Was it one man’s gift, or an act of god?

The Battle of Gettysburg is one of the most famous battles of the American Civil War. It occurred from July 1 to July 3, 1863 in and around the town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, and this battle had the largest number of casualties for this entire war.
This battle was the turning point of the Civil War after Union Major General George Meade’s soldiers defeated the Confederate army lead by General Robert E. Lee. This ended Lee’s attempt to invade the North, and afterwards he retreated with his army back to Virginia. But not everyone went home when this battle ended. It is estimated that between 46,000 and 51,000 soldiers from both sides had their lives end in this three day battle.
Soon after the battle ended; reports started to come in concerning paranormal activity throughout this area. From phantom cries of wounded soldiers to full body apparitions walking the battle grounds - Gettysburg is constantly reminded about their dark past.
So settle in my spooky friends…we are about to here the tales of the ghosts of Gettysburg. But before we get started today, I do have a warning for you all. In this episode we will be speaking about a lot of death, and dismemberment. Listener discretion is advised.

One of the great mysteries in life is what happens when we die. Most religions tell us that there is some sort of afterlife, and one of the more popular ideologies concerning this is reincarnation. Reincarnation literally translated means “to take flesh again”, and it means that when we leave one life - we move onto another. The reason behind this is so our spirit can further learn and grow. But is it true? Do we simply pass through a succession of lives?
So get comfortable my spooky friends…we are about to take a deep dive into the possibility that we may have lived before.

Poorhouses, which were also known as almshouses or poor farms, were not a place that you wanted to end your days in. These places were tax supported residential institutions that took in those who could not support themselves. In these facilities; people were often given not enough food to eat, and what they were given were often unpalatable. They were forced into crowded and unsanitary conditions, where they had to do hard labour or domestic labour as a punishment created for those who suffered from poverty. As a result; many people became victims of this system, and one of these was a lady named Rhoda Derry.
So settle in my spooky friends…you are about to hear the sad tale of Rhoda Derry. But before we begin, I must give you a warning. You are about to hear a horrible tale that includes neglect, self harm, and abuse. Listener discretion is advised.

When people think about witchcraft today; they think of the current Halloween stereotype of a witch…women in tall pointy hats with large noses stirring potions in a black cauldron while plotting their evil actions. But in the 17th century; witchcraft was a very real and serious crime for which a person could lose their life.
It wasn’t until 1736 that Scotland repealed the Witchcraft Act of 1563, which ensured that the prosecution of witches were banned. But this was too late for seven women who lived in the town of Paisley in the west central lowlands of Scotland.
So get comfortable my spooky friends…you are about to hear the tale of the Paisley witches.

The number of military and civilian fatalities caused by World War II is estimated to be between 50 to 56 million people, with an additional 19 to 28 million deaths being caused by war related disease and famine.

There were countless atrocities that occurred during this time, and some of the worst were caused by the operations of Unit 731. This biological warfare unit dove to new depths in what was already a genocidal war. Before this Unit was ended in 1945, it committed some of the most atrocious human experiments in recorded history.

After meeting with the President, Vice President Richard Nixon, and the joint chiefs - he stayed on Earth for three years working with top scientists and government officials while living in the Pentagon.
If this sounds suspiciously like a plot of a TV show, you are correct. In American Horror Story Double Feature, Valiant Thor is an alien earthly representative, who is actual the mastermind behind an evil plot to replace the human race with alien/human hybrids. But the thing is my dear listeners, this is not just some sort of plot of a tv show. In fact, some believe that this really happened.

Serial killers are terrifying to most. This is because there are no blueprints for what makes a serial killer, nor is there a specific set of experiences that can occur to create one. This whole idea was summed up perfectly by serial killer Ted Bundy when he said…and I quote…”We serial killers are your sons. We are your husbands. We are everywhere. And there will be more of your children dead tomorrow.”
But the one thing we cling onto is the fact is that serial killers eventually get caught. But what if they don’t?
Just a heads up here my dear listeners…today we will be talking about death by drowning, and graphic death scenes. Listener discretion is advised.

Just by the name alone; secret societies bring up feelings of suspicion and mistrust. With that said, they have flourished throughout history. Conspiracy theories have surrounded secret societies for centuries, and many of these link these groups to major world events. But are these stories the truth, or are they fiction?

When people hear the words “The Summer of ’69”, it means different things to many. Some think about the singer Brian Adams, and his song of the same name. Others think about how three astronauts landed on the moon for the first time. For many, Woodstock and the Stonewall riots are the first thing to come to their minds.
It was very tumultuous time, and one person decided to take advantage of that which resulted in death.
A heads up my dear listeners - today we will be talking about abuse and neglect of various forms for adults and children, sexual assault, different types of crime, and murder. Listener discretion is advised.

They sit in cemeteries amongst the tombstones. They look innocent enough; an ornate chair or bench where you can rest your feet for a moment. But if there is a hint of truth in this urban legend - these objects wait for unsuspecting mourners to take a seat.

Christmas…the most festive time of the year. I have fond memories of decorating the tree, helping my mom with the lights or at least attempting to, hanging the stockings on the mantel, being with family, eating amazing food, and then on Christmas Day - seeing a bounty of presents under the tree with our home being filled with joy, love and laughter. But my question is; where did all the traditions of Christmas come from.
Many will say that it is the birth of Christ that we are celebrating. Is that the case or are our traditions far older then we realize? So, settle in with some hot cocoa, eggnog, or whatever you prefer and listen to the true origins of some of our Christmas Traditions.

When people think of the CIA; they normally think of James Bond or of a shady guy in a hat and trench coat in old black and white movies. People don’t normally think of American citizens being traced and watched, but that’s exactly what happened historically and continues to happen in today’s times.
The concept of the CIA following anyone is an odd for most. Anyone voicing that the CIA is following them are often dismissed as crazy or paranoid, and this can lead to tragic results.
Just a heads up my spooky friends: this episode contains mention of mental health issues, suicide, and suicidal thoughts. Listener discretion is advised.

Today my spooky friends; the episode you will hear will sound like a Halloween legend. But…it is not. A dark and grisly vampire hysteria gripped New England in the 18th and 19th centuries, and it resulted in the macabre history that you will hear today. It also resulted in several people to be forever known as a vampire.
Just a heads up here my dear listeners…today we will be talking about desecration of the dead. Listener discretion is advised.

When one thinks about murder mysteries, Agatha Christie or Sir Arthur Conan Doyle will come to many people’s minds. With these writers you always get a great whodunnit, and the crime is always solved in the end. Many times; the guilty party either gives an impressive monologue about why they did their evil crime, or their life ends in an interesting or dramatic fashion. But in real life, there are some murder cases that are strange, bloody, and unsolved to this day.

Greenwich Village is located on the west side of Manhattan in the New York City. It is considered to be the home of bohemian culture in the early and mid-20th century, and is known for its artists lifestyle. But there is one place that stands out for a completely different reason.
The picturesque building located at 14W-10th Street is known for its not so nice history. In fact, twenty two people died in this house and that is why it has the nickname that it does.
Just a heads up my dear listeners…in today’s episode we will be talking about abuse and death of both adults and children. Listener discretion is advised.

Today we will be talking about violent deaths of adults and children. Listener discretion is advised.

There is one horror movie plot line that can be terrifying…dolls. From Chucky in the movie Child’s Play to Annabelle in The Conjuring series, the concept of evil dolls brings tones of money into the box office. From their glassy eyes, and carved smiles; these death dolls make people nervous even before they come to life and hunt down their living prey.
But as we all know, not all dolls are evil. In fact, dolls have been part of human play for thousands of years - but historically there are some dolls that were not for play.

We are getting closer to Halloween, which is my favourite holiday of the year! Why? Well, it is the only time of the year that it is ok to eat boxes of tiny candy bars. There is no stress like on Christmas or Valentine’s day, and the best thing is you can dress however you wish and likely not get arrested.
Just like we did last year; Horrifying History wants to give all of you a gift this Halloween, and what better gift is there than an additional episode! This year we are collaborating with another great show on the Darkcast Network. Beyond the Rainbow is an amazing show that brings you the crimes committed by or against the LGBTQ+ community. Host C.J. tells you not just the stories that you would normally hear, but the lesser known tales that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Today will be no different, when we both tell you about horrifying crimes that occurred on Halloween.
Welcome to our Halloween Crossover Episode, and Happy Halloween from us to you all.
