A podcast about scary things and horrible people. Join high school friends Ally Owens and Erica Cecil as they dive into the intriguing world of true crime and the paranormal.

This week we cover the brutal 1995 murder of 19-year-old Colleen Slemmer, a case that resulted in 18-year-old Christa Pike becoming the youngest woman sentenced to death in the United States during the modern post-Furman era.
We also cover one of the most famously cursed artifacts in paranormal history: a centuries-old cloth doll currently kept under glass in Key West, Florida. The story begins in the early 1900s, when a young boy in a prominent Florida family was gifted a tall, humanlike cloth toy dressed in a sailor suit. Almost immediately, an unnerving bond formed between the child and the figure.
