This is the Valentines Day episode. If there’s one thing you can count on in A Good Night For a Murder on Valentine’s Day, it’s a love triangle and a poisoning.
This is the story of chocolate cream killer, Christana Edmunds.
Tonight’s story is one that left people wondering, “Was there even a crime committed here?” But I think you’ll agree, there most certainly was.
As one source describes the case, “She disappeared from one of the busiest streets on earth, at the sunniest hour of a brilliant afternoon, with thousands within sight and reach, men and women who knew her on every side, and officers of the law thickly strewn about her path.”
This is the story of missing socialite, Dorothy Harriet Camille Arnold.
Tonight’s story may arguably be the one most prolifically retold Victorian true crime stories of all time. It has inspired plays, publications, music, films - I mean it must be a wild story to stand the test of time like that right? It even includes a bit of a supernatural twist. This is the story of the Red Barn Murder.
A favorite holiday and winter pastime for Victorians, was telling ghost stories. Many Victorians wholeheartedly believed our deceased loved ones remained around us in spirit, just as much as when they were alive. Many were also skeptical, but those who believed, made it their mission to find proof. In tonight’s story, we’re going to talk about one man who, to some, provided concrete proof that our loved ones remained with us just beyond veil.
This is the story of spirit photographer, William Mumler.
Tonight’s story was actually a listener request from a while back. I did not document where this request came in or who sent it, but it’s a good one. It’s got a love triangle, sex scandal and murder, and it was the first execution of a husband and wife in England in nearly 150 years. So thank you to the listener who recommended this case. If you have a case request you can contact me on my website or any of my social media channels.
This is the story of the Bermondsey Horror.
Tonight’s story takes place on a dark, isolated island off the coast of New England. This is the story of the Smuttynose murders.
