  • Life in the mob was hell for Freddie Cobo. By 1978 he'd crossed lines he thought he'd never cross — including committing multiple murders. But getting out of "the life" was easier said than done, especially when your boss is the most vicious and feared mobster in the city.

    Can Freddie get out of "the life" alive? Can he give his son, Little Freddie, one last innocent trick-or-treating memory for Halloween? Or will death snatch him up first?

  • In 2002, somebody broke into Big Ed's Junkyard and "stole" 7 old, out-of-circulation school buses. But rather than drive them out of the open gate to get away, the thief or thieves simply left the old buses stranded against the fence inside the yard... why?

    That's exactly what Miss Monette is determined to figure out. But will this seemingly unimportant mystery unravel into something much bigger than a simple break-in gone bad? Does this odd little happening even really matter? The answer to both of these questions is a resounding YES.

    You're going to want to take a listen to see how it all unfolds in the first case of this new, ongoing series within a series called "Miss Monette's Mysteries".

    What do you think? Any theories? Any hunches? Grab some earbuds, put on your detective hat and join Miss Monette on her quest for answers... and let the mystery begin!

  • It's safe to say we've gotten pretty high up with all the stories we've explored here at SSH so far — and the higher we go, the more to behold. But we can't stay safe up here forever...

    Sometimes we have to go Several Stories Down — deep down into the dark caverns and basements and cellars where all our nightmares and fears and secrets are buried.

    So put on some headphones, turn the lights down low and tune your imagination into the fear that we're all afraid to face — but only if you dare.

    These stories my be disturbing to some people, so proceed with caution and have a happy Halloween.

  • How did the American city of Wexler come to be known as "The Butterfly City"?

    The story actually begins in Kent County, England, on a cool autumn evening in 1870. Priscilla Paxton and Edmond Moore met at ball held at Boswell Manor ... little did they know that a simple dance would blossom into a beautiful friendship, a life-long romance, and so much more.

  • I wasn't sure if there would be any connection on this visit with relatives. All I knew was that I wanted to sit down with family and press record. I had no idea how special the conversation would turn out. In our second SSH true tale, you'll hear a story that stretches all the way back to the Second World War. I'm still not quite sure what to make of it. Only time will tell.

  • As the first season of SEVERAL STORIES HIGH comes to a close (and as you can probably tell from the little bendy lines in the title (and these ones too...oooh, double bendies!)), I do hope you enjoy one last story (for now!), namely in today's tale: "The Dollars and Scents of Smell", in which a freelance journalist named Rudy sets out to track down the heiress to the Smell fortune. And yes, you read that correctly: The Smell fortune, as in the Smell Family, as in...THE INVENTORS OF THE SENSE OF SMELL. But one question remains: Can our freelancing sleuth make it to the Smell estate and back in one piece? There's only one way to find out (I checked). Shall we begin?

    I want to give a huge THANK YOU to each and every one of you for listening to the show and telling your friends and loved ones about it. Please keep it up! And even though season 1 has come to a close, I do hope and plan to be back one day! I've got some other projects to accomplish until then, and I will update you all when they're done! In the mean time, I will leave links to some, emphasis on SOME, of my favorite podcasts if you are interested. Links to that and more below!
