<p>In Part 2 of our Dorothea Puente series, Brooke and the crew dive into the disturbing downfall of the woman who appeared to be nothing more than a sweet little grandmother running a boarding house.</p><p>After complaints and investigations lead to her first boarding house being shut down, Dorothea’s web of manipulation begins to unravel. We discuss her time behind bars, how she continued to charm those around her, and how prison did little to stop the darkness brewing beneath her grandmotherly image.</p><p>Once released, Dorothea opens a second boarding house in Sacramento, once again targeting the vulnerable, elderly, disabled, and those with nowhere else to turn. What looked like a safe place to live became the setting for one of California’s most disturbing murder cases.</p><p>We follow the investigation that finally exposed the truth, the missing residents, the bodies discovered buried in the backyard, and the moment Dorothea Puente’s carefully crafted persona came crashing down.</p><p>Join Brooke, Adriana, and Savannah as they discuss the shocking final chapter of Dorothea’s crimes, the failures that allowed her to continue for years, and how one unassuming grandmother became one of America’s most notorious female serial killers.</p><p><strong>⚠️ Listener Warning:</strong> This episode contains discussions of murder, abuse, vulnerable victims, and graphic details that may be disturbing to some listeners.</p><p>New episodes drop every Tuesday. Don’t forget to follow, rate, review, and share Grave Confessions, and keep confessing your darkest curiosities.</p><p></p>

<p>This week, Brooke and Adriana set out with one simple goal: talk about the legend of Dogman.</p><p>Did they accomplish that? ...Kind of.</p><p>Somewhere between mysterious sightings, creepy backroads, and the idea of a seven-foot-tall canine creature lurking in the woods, the conversation completely derailed. One random thought led to another, which somehow led to a totally unrelated story, which somehow turned into another debate that had absolutely nothing to do with cryptids. And honestly? That's half the fun.</p><p>Savannah couldn't make it for this recording, so Brooke and Adriana were left unsupervised—and it definitely shows. This episode feels less like a formal investigation and more like sitting around with friends swapping spooky stories, laughing at yourselves, and wondering why every strange noise outside automatically sounds like certain death.</p><p>Of course, we do eventually circle back to Dogman: the legends, the eyewitness accounts, and the reason this cryptid has managed to stick around in American folklore for so long. Whether it's an undiscovered creature, a supernatural entity, or just our brains trying to make sense of the dark, there's something about the story that keeps people looking over their shoulders.</p><p>So grab a drink, settle in, and join us for one of our most unhinged episodes yet. If you've ever wondered what happens when two true crime and paranormal nerds start talking with absolutely no guardrails, this is your answer.</p><p>And if you hear something pacing just outside your window tonight... maybe don't go looking for it.</p><p></p>

<p>In this week's episode of <strong>Grave Confessions</strong>, we take a look at the early life of Dorothea Puente, long before she became one of the most notorious female serial killers in American history.</p><p>From a childhood filled with loss, neglect, and instability, Dorothea learned early on how to survive by manipulating those around her. We discuss her troubled upbringing, multiple marriages, run-ins with the law, and the scams and fraud schemes that followed her throughout much of her adult life.</p><p>As the years passed, Dorothea carefully built an image of herself as a caring and trustworthy woman, all while hiding a history of deception. By the end of the episode, she opens her first boarding house, setting the stage for the crimes that would later make national headlines.</p><p>Join us as we explore the events and choices that shaped Dorothea Puente before the world knew her name.</p><p><strong>Content Warning:</strong> This episode contains discussions of child neglect, abuse, fraud, and criminal behavior. Listener discretion is advised.</p><p>🎙️ Don't forget to like, follow, and share <strong>Grave Confessions</strong>.
