When addiction drives someone to commit the ultimate act of cruelty, how do we reconcile their humanity with the horror of their actions? Addiction, such as an unchecked obsession with sex, can dissolve moral boundaries, driving individuals to prioritize their compulsions over empathy, ethics, and even basic humanity—including, in this heartbreaking case, the fundamental maternal instinct. Louise Porton deliberately ended the lives of the children she brought into the world, striking at the very core of what it means to be human and leaving us outraged and deeply unsettled. Her calculated cruelty and staggering indifference, arguably driven by an overwhelming sex addiction, led her to take the lives of her two precious young daughters: Lexi, just three years old, and Scarlett, only 17 months. In doing so, Louise betrayed not only her role as a mother but also the very essence of nature itself, and transformed from a giver of life to a dealer of death in the most tragic way imaginable.

In the world of mythology, the phoenix stands as one of the most enduring symbols of resilience and teaches us that true strength is not defined by the absence of hardship, but by the ability to rise after being consumed by it. Imagine, for a moment, hearing the sickening sound of your own flesh being torn open, feeling your head nearly severed, your body stabbed, slashed, and disemboweled. Picture your attackers walking away, convinced that no living being could survive the savagery they’ve inflicted. But here's the twist: they severely underestimated the woman at the center of this story. A woman who, like the phoenix, rose from the ashes of unimaginable brutality, emerging not only alive but more powerful and resilient than ever. This woman—whose journey is marked by pain and horror beyond comprehension—became the embodiment of unbreakable willpower. This is the case of Alison Botha, whose harrowing tale is one of survival, strength, and an indomitable spirit that defied death itself. Please listen with caution.

On April 3, 2011, a cemetery worker in South Africa stumbled upon an outrageously gruesome scene: large quantities of fresh blood and drag marks leading to a pair of blood-soaked jeans, and beneath that, a naked young adult male, butchered, eviscerated, and dismembered, barely recognizable as human. Cold as ice, this young man had been brutally stabbed and skinned; and when his remains were uncovered, they were missing numerous body parts, including his head. This is the absolutely devastating case of Michael Van Eck, who was murdered and flayed by a depraved woman posing as a romantic interest, Chané van Heerden (known as "The Female Ed Gein"), and her disturbed boyfriend, Maartens van der Merwe. Steeped in pseudo-occult practices and sadistic ritualistic behavior, this savage case is regarded as one of the most heinous murders in South African history. Please listen with caution.

We’ve all felt it—the spine-tingling sensation that someone or something is lurking, watching us from the shadows. That an inanimate object, specifically a doll, has somehow come to life, piercing its gaze through the veil of stillness. In the eerie corners of Key West, this creeping dread becomes almost tangible in the presence of Robert the Doll, a stuffed creation with disturbingly lifelike features: a stitched mouth, button nose, and wide, soulless black eyes that seem to follow your every move with a sinister intelligence. Although Robert the Doll may have been intended as a charming toy, anyone who lays eyes on him knows that his haunting expression conceals dark secrets best left undisturbed. Robert is not just a doll; he is a vessel of dark magic, cursed (if you dare to believe), and ready to unleash havoc and despair at any moment. This is the story of the most haunted doll in the world. Happy Halloween!

On February 13, 2024, a man received a call from his grandchildren's school informing him that their mother, Kristina Joksimovic, a former Miss Switzerland finalist, had failed to pick them up. After collecting the children and bringing them back to their home, he searched the house for clues as to his daughter's whereabouts, and found a large black garbage bag in the basement laundry room. Trembling, he peeled back the plastic to make an absolutely gruesome discovery: Kristina’s signature cascade of golden blonde hair, still attached to her severed head. The horrifying sight raised countless questions, most hauntingly: What had happened to his beautiful daughter, and where was the rest of Kristina? The answers would soon reveal themselves in a manner that shocked and horrified the world. Because parts of Kristina’s remains were discovered soaking in a chemical solution, while others, devastatingly, had been pureed in a kitchen blender. This is the shockingly brutal and heartbreaking case of Kristina Joksimovic.

In Part 2 of our two-part coverage of Robert Hansen, also known as the "Butcher Baker," we explore his twisted motives and gruesome methods of killing. Hansen would lure vulnerable women to his remote cabin and engage in a sadistic ritual, which involved hunting them down like defenseless prey in the vast Alaskan wilderness. Often, in a particularly cruel twist, he would release his ensnared victims just to chase them through the woods with a rifle, savoring the hunt and inflicting maximum psychological torment. Hansen's horrific legacy left at least 17 innocent victims buried beneath the cold Alaskan earth, their tragic fates sealed by his sick ambition.

Robert Hansen, infamously known as the "Butcher Baker," terrorized Alaska in the 1970s and '80s and embodied the terrifying essence of a methodical predator stalking vulnerable prey. In Part 1 of our two-part coverage of Alaska's most prolific serial killer, we delve into Hansen's troubled upbringing and the disturbing behaviors that ultimately led to the deaths of countless innocent women. He was a deeply twisted individual who believed he had the right to determine a woman's worth and, even more horrifically, to violently eliminate any woman he deemed "indecent" or unworthy of existence. Our exploration of Robert Hansen in Part 1 reveals the complexities of his twisted psyche and the societal factors that may have contributed to his inexcusable, heinous actions.

At 3:26 PM on Thursday, December 16, 2004, Becky Harper made a gruesome discovery that no parent should ever have to see: her 23-year-old daughter, Bobbi Jo Stinnett, lying dead in a pool of blood on the floor of her Missouri home. The scene was a vision of gruesome chaos, and Becky struggled to comprehend the horror before her. As she continued to absorb all the horrific details, her breath caught in her throat as she realized that Bobbi Jo’s abdomen had been violently ripped open. And, heartbreakingly, the baby she had been carrying for nearly eight months was gone. All that remained was a severed umbilical cord. This is the devastating case of the brutal murder of Bobbi Jo Stinnett and the shocking abduction of her unborn daughter, Victoria Jo. It is also the chilling story of Lisa Montgomery, the deeply disturbed perpetrator who became the first woman to be executed by the federal government since 1953. The details of this episode are extremely graphic in nature - listener discretion is advised.

In September 2013, three friends chatting on a bridge over the Vartry Reservoir near Dublin noticed a series of disturbing items floating in the water: handcuffs, shackles, rope, a woman’s top, leg restraints, and a leather face mask with a gag ball. Additionally, among the recovered items were also two cell phones containing extremely graphic text messages between individuals labeled "Master" and "Slave." Then, the following day, a dog walker stumbled upon decomposed human remains in a wooded area near the reservoir. Tragically, the connection between these macabre discoveries unraveled a nightmarish tale of BDSM and murder, and revealed the absolutely devastating descent of Elaine O'Hara, an innocent and vulnerable woman who fell prey to the horrifically twisted fantasies of a depraved killer.
TRIGGER WARNING: This case contains extremely disturbing content and includes difficult discussions of sexual assault, self-harm, and suicide. Please listen with caution.

In the face of death, most would run—it’s human nature to flee from danger, to protect oneself, to cling to life. But on September 11, 2001, as chaos engulfed the South Tower of the World Trade Center, Welles Remy Crowther defied that instinct. Amid the smoke and fire, with the ground shaking beneath him and flames licking at his skin, he chose not to run. Instead, he repeatedly charged back into the inferno, not for himself, but to save others. Driven by something far stronger than fear, he guided the lost, comforted the wounded, and led the terrified to safety. He knew the risks—each step could be his last—but his deep sense of duty and compassion never wavered. In those moments of unimaginable terror, he saved 18 lives. This man, who faced death without flinching, who stood as a beacon of courage and selflessness in the darkest of times, was The Man in the Red Bandana.

The torment of a parent discovering that their child has been murdered is a searing, primal agony that defies articulation—a force that blends heartache, fury, and helplessness, leaving a deep, forever open wound on the soul. While such horror is unimaginable and "next steps" seem unconceivable, André Bamberski's immediate response to his daughter's murder was extraordinary: he transformed his heartbreak into a relentless, three-decade-long pursuit of justice. His quest unfolds like an international spy thriller, weaving together a web of intrigue, suspicious autopsy reports, forged documents, and whispers of a government cover-up. Yet, at its core, this story is about a brokenhearted father, bound by his duty to his daughter. This is the story of André Bamberski and his quest for vigilante vengeance on behalf of his beloved child, Kalinka.

The horrific case of Colleen Stan is one of the most terrifying and unbelievable tales of torture, captivity, and survival in modern history. In Part 1 of our two-part coverage, we lay the foundation of how 20-year-old Colleen Stan was abducted by Cameron and Janice Hooker, a sadistic couple in California who fulfilled their depraved goal of sexually enslaving "a girl who couldn’t say no.” What followed after Colleen's abduction was seven years of unimaginable torment, as Colleen was forced to wear a wooden box over her head and/or lay in a coffin-sized box for 23 hours per day while being subjected to extreme physical, sexual, and psychological abuse. This case, often referred to as "The Girl in the Box," delves into the darkest corners of human depravity and explores the terrifying depths of control and manipulation. TRIGGER WARNING: This case contains extremely disturbing and graphic content and includes difficult discussions of domestic violence, sexual abuse, and rape. Please listen with caution!
