Postpartum Depression and a Warning for America: Lindsay Clancy Mistrial
In this episode of Histories of Horror, Sai and AL keep the momentum rolling with a haunting, deep dive into one of the most agonizing true crime cases in modern history—the legal fallout and recent mistrial surrounding the Lindsay Clancy tragedy.
Deep within the chilling intersections of severe postpartum psychosis, a fractured medical system, and the Massachusetts courtrooms, a mother's mental breakdown culminated in an unimaginable family tragedy in Duxbury.
From the chilling timeline of that winter evening and the intense psychiatric battleground of the trial to last month's stunning mistrial and the ongoing legal fights over potential retrial proceedings, we explore how this devastating case continues to captivate public attention and haunt our collective conscience.
The HOH community continues to appreciate any help and support for:
AL's Support Fund: AL's husband is on dialysis and was recently hospitalized with major complications—severe jaundice and borderline organ shutdown. This is a heavy physical and financial burden, and we want to surround her with as much relief as possible. Please consider contributing to her GoFundMe to help cover medical costs and recovery.

Sai's Legal & Travel Fund: Sai Marie got unlawfully arrested in Los Angeles on March 28th while on assignment representing the Authors of the Resistance at No Kings LA. However, being "boots on the ground" came with additional daily costs, and after being arrested and freed with no charges due to being press, she was mistreated and abused—forced to crawl into the paddy wagon when she never should have been detained in press gear. She is seeking support for her legal fight and travel expenses so she can focus entirely on the mission while there.

Out of the Mists: Oregon Cryptids, Bigfoot & Batsquatch
In this episode of Histories of Horror, Sai and AL are keeping the momentum rolling with an atmospheric, deep dive into the legendary and terrifying cryptids that haunt the Pacific Northwest—the iconic Oregon Bigfoot and the elusive Mount Hood Batsquatch.
Deep within the moss-draped forests, underground lava tubes, and towering alpine ridges of the Cascade Range, massive bipedal hominids and winged nighttime predators roam completely undetected.
From historical Indigenous oral traditions and towering footprint casts to modern backcountry witness accounts and glowing-eyed sightings along the Timberline Trail, we explore how these enduring mysteries continue to captivate our imagination and rule the Oregon wilderness.
In this second chapter of the season, Sai and AL unpack the folklore, the physical evidence, and the dark alpine legacy that keeps every late-night camper looking over their shoulder.

The I-5 Killer - Randall Woodfield Murders
In this episode of Histories of Horror, we are keeping the momentum rolling with an atmospheric, deep dive into one of the Pacific Northwest’s most terrifying true crime sagas—the brutal reign of the I-5 Killer, Randall Woodfield.
A Green Bay Packers draft pick raised along the pristine coast of Oregon, Woodfield possessed the kind of towering, clean-cut athletic physique that opened every door—and hid a horrific, predatory monster lurking just beneath the surface.
From his early red flags on the football field to the calculated, multi-state rampage of armed robberies, sexual assaults, and murder, we explore how an all-American wide receiver used his golden-boy charm to blend in while hunting in plain sight.
In this second chapter of the season, Sai and AL unpack the forensic trail, psychological decay, and dark legacy that permanently scarred the West Coast.
The HOH community is facing two major situations, and we are asking for your support to help us keep moving forward:
AL is still recovering from surgery. This is a heavy physical and financial burden, and we want to surround her with as much relief as possible. Please consider contributing to her GoFundMe to help cover medical costs and recovery.
