Check out episode 107 covering the case of Gary Heidnik and his pit of horrors!

In 1987, a 911 call from a Philadelphia payphone led police to a row house on North Marshall Street—and to horrors they could barely comprehend. Women chained in a basement. Human remains in the freezer. A pot boiling on the stove. At the center of it all was Gary Heidnik, a preacher and self-styled investor whose neighbors thought he was eccentric but harmless. In this episode, we unravel Heidnik’s disturbing childhood, his twisted church, the pit in his basement, and the crimes that made him one of the most notorious killers in American history.

If you haven’t already, check out episodes 105 and 106 covering the Colonial Parkway Murders.

Between 1986 and 1989, four young couples were killed along Virginia’s Colonial Parkway. Isolated turnouts and quiet overlooks became crime scenes, and investigators struggled to connect the cases. In this first part, we look at the early victims, their lives, and how the investigation began to take shape. In part 2, we explore the final couple connected to the parkway, the evolving investigation, and the many theories that have surrounded the case ever since.

If you haven’t already, check out Episode 104, which covers the disappearance of Amy Lynn Bradley.

A family vacation in the Caribbean should have been nothing more than a week of sun, music, and memories. For the Bradleys, it began that way—laughter over dinner, dancing late into the night, and plans for the next day’s adventures. But before the ship could reach its next port, their 23-year-old daughter, Amy, was gone. In the years since, sightings, rumors, and unsettling leads have pointed in every direction—from chance encounters on remote beaches to the shadowy world of human trafficking. More than two decades later, the question remains: what happened to Amy Lynn Bradley?
