CV: The Gračac Witch Killing | The Final Curse of Rogue Darkness
In this final episode of Rogue Darkness, we descend into one of Croatia’s most chilling and little-known murders: the Gračac Witch Killing.<br /><br /> This haunting case blends folklore, fear, superstition, and brutality—revealing how ancient beliefs about witches still cast long shadows in the modern world.<br /><br /> Travel with me into the remote Croatian region of Lika, where a mysterious elderly woman was believed to possess dark powers… and where superstition spiraled into violence. We’ll explore the psychological triggers behind witch-hunts, the cultural roots of Slavic witchcraft lore, and the tragic events that led to her shocking death.<br /><br /> As Rogue Darkness comes to its final close, this episode serves as both a farewell and a reminder: the shadows we fear the most are often the ones we create.<br /><br /> Thank you for being part of this journey for the past five years.<br /> Your support has meant more than words can say.<br /><br /> For more podcasts covering true crime, paranormal stories, and more, be sure to check out the amazing podcast network I’ve had the honor to be a part of: Darkcast Network!<br /><br /><br /> #GračacWitchKilling<br /> #RogueDarkness<br /> #FinalEpisode<br /> #TrueCrimePodcast<br /> #DarkFolklore<br /> #SlavicWitchcraft<br /> #CroatianTrueCrime<br /> #WitchLore<br /> #TrueCrimeCommunity<br /> #PodcastFinale<br /> #DarkHistory<br /> #OccultLore<br /> #EuropeanFolklore<br /> #ShadowWork<br /> #MysteryPodcast<br /> #ParanormalPodcast<br /> #FolkloreStudies<br /> #TrueCrimeStories

CIV: The Scrapfaggot Green Witch | England’s Haunted Pub, the Standing Stone, & the Curse of the Green
Step into the chilling folklore of Northamptonshire, England — where an ancient standing stone, a forgotten village green, and a centuries-old pub hide one of the region’s most unsettling legends. Known as The Scrapfaggot Green Witch, this mysterious figure is said to haunt the crossroads, curse those who disturb the stone, and return to claim souls who wander too close after dark.<br /><br /> Blending atmospheric storytelling, historical context, and the legends passed down through generations, this episode invites you into a tale where English folklore, witchcraft, and haunted geography collide.<br /><br /> And now… let’s step into the darkness, one crime at a time.<br /><br /> 📚SOURCES:<br /> “Foreign News: On Scrapfaggot Green.” *TIME*, 23 Oct. 1944, <a href="https://time.com/archive/6865608/foreign-news-on-scrapfaggot-green/." target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://time.com/archive/68656...</a> /> <br /> Winsham, Willow. “Poltergeist, Witchcraft or Hoax: The Witch of Scrapfaggot Green.” *#FolkloreThursday*, 4 Aug. 2016, <a href="https://folklorethursday.com/fakelore/willow-winsham/." target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://folklorethursday.com/f...</a> /> <br /> “The Witch Stone of Great Leighs.” *Atlas Obscura*, 26 June 2020, <a href="https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/witch-stone-great-leighs." target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.atlasobscura.com/p...</a> /> <br /> Price, Harry. *Poltergeist Over England.* Country Life, 1945.<br /><br /><br /><br /> #scrapfaggotgreen #englishfolklore #witchlegends #hauntedengland #standingstone #darkhistory #folklorepodcast #paranormalpodcast #witchcraftstories #hauntedpub #urbanlegends #ukhauntings #ghoststories #truehaunting #darkfolklore #occultpodcast #rogueDarkness #creepypodcast #mysterioushistory #paranormalstories #witchmyths #cursedlocations

CIII: The Starvation Doctor | The Deadly Fasting Cult of Linda Hazzard
Starvation. Control. Obsession. Death.<br /> In the early 1900s, one woman claimed she possessed the power to cure every illness — not with medicine, but with extreme fasting. Her name was Linda Burfield Hazzard, and the world would come to know her as The Starvation Doctor.<br /><br /> Operating out of a remote Washington sanitarium locals later called Starvation Heights, Hazzard convinced vulnerable patients that starvation could cleanse the body. Instead, her methods led to a shocking trail of emaciated victims, manipulated wills, forged documents, and one of the most disturbing medical horrors in American history.<br /><br /> In this episode, we dive deep into:<br /><br /> ⚫ Linda Hazzard’s childhood and upbringing<br /> ⚫ How she fell under the spell of dangerous “fasting cures”<br /> ⚫ The opening of her infamous Olalla, Washington sanitarium<br /> ⚫ The suffering of her victims — including the tragic Williamson sisters<br /> ⚫ Her sensational trial, conviction, and chilling final years<br /> ⚫ Why her story remains one of America’s darkest true-crime cases<br /><br /> Join me as we explore the haunting tale of a woman who believed starvation could heal — and the many who paid with their lives.<br /><br /> Step into the darkness… one crime at a time.<br /><br /> 📚SOURCES:<br /> Nelson, Paul. “Hazzard, Linda Burfield Perry (1867–1938).” MNopedia, Minnesota Historical Society, 2 June 2025.<br /><br /> “Linda Hazzard.” Wikipedia, last updated August 2025.<br /><br /> Lovejoy, Bess. “The Doctor Who Starved Her Patients to Death.” Smithsonian Magazine, 28 Oct. 2014.<br /><br /> “Linda Burfield Hazzard: Healer or Murderess?” Washington State Archives — Digital Archives.<br /><br /> “British Heiresses… One Starved to Death, the Other Emaciated.” People Magazine, Jan. 2025.<br /><br /> State v.
