Hello out there! Yes, you're hearing us! A new episode!
Here on the train, we like to take you listeners worldwide and dive into legends, monsters, and other crazy tales from the past. But we thought, you know what? Why not take listeners worldwide on a trip into our past here in America.
Sure, our country may not be as old as other parts of the world, but our native cultures still have legends & monsters from the past that are equally as interesting, fun, and crazy. We decided to dive into some of the crazy myths and legends of our own natives' past. We've all heard the stories of the Wendigo and the skinwalkers, but that's not where we're going today. You passengers know we've discussed both of those in other episodes. We will look at other legends that may be less well known but people out there, including our fellow Americans.
Remember to spread the word, tell your friends and family and leave us a review wherever you can!

"However, glancing around the 'fridge, something in the lower drawer drew their attention. There, where the carrots, celery, and other vegetables lay, were the decapitated heads of Fred and Edwina."
Yep, that happened. An elderly couple was brutally murdered, bled out and cut into pieces. Then sliced up and put into a refrigerator with their son being the prime suspect. Yet, he disappeared, never to be heard from again, or was he involved in the assassination of U.S. President John F. Kennedy?
WHAAAATTT??
Grab your good stuff and take a solid swig, this is going to be a crazy ride.
A big thank you to The History Channel for having me.

Some of the most infamous serial killers of the 20th century—Ted Bundy, Ed Gein, Jeffrey Dahmer, and John Wayne Gacy—are names that we are all familiar with. These murderers' heinous deeds have been the basis for numerous films, books, and television series. However, the public knew that although the killers might have had psychological issues, they were still adults who had committed some of the most brutal murders on their victims.
But what if the murderers weren't adults? Many of us struggle to comprehend why someone would commit murder because it is considered a horrible and unfathomable act. Arguably the worst thing one person can do to another. Some of us even forget there is no set age at which one might commit murder. Some teenagers and young adults target their victims, ruthlessly and viciously taking their lives, often without showing any regret and in ways that are hard for us to understand. Today we will discuss killer kids whose tales keep you awake at night. From frying a victim's flesh and poisoning their family to slashing their neighbors and killing for "fun," these killer kids did it all.
