Jimmy Savile: The Secret, Lies & Depravity “Jimmy!” “Jimmy!” “Jimmy!” The name rang across the crowd as a satin gold coffin approached St. Anne’s Cathedral in Leeds, England in November of 2011. Hundreds of people kept track of the procession as the coffin journeyed through Leeds, stopping momentarily at Leeds General Infirmary before heading to St. Anne’s Cathedral for the service. It was the closest to a royal funeral Britain could get and every inch of the procession was decided beforehand by the deceased. At age 84, legendary radio dj, television personality, philanthropist, and English Knight, Sir James Wilson Savile – better known as “Jimmy Savile” died in his home. He had been battling heart problems and was found dead just two days before his birthday.The “National Treasure” With his trademark chunky jewelry, cigar in mouth, floaty white hair and catchy phrases, Jimmy Savile was proclaimed an English icon. Born in Leeds, in West Yorkshire, he was the youngest of seven children and grew up in a pious Roman Catholic family. His father, a bookmaker’s clerk was once described by Jimmy as “scrupulously honest but scrupulously broke.” His mother, Agnes, seemed to have a special bond with her youngest child. In later interviews, Savile referred to his mother as “The Duchess” and even after her death in 1972, kept her room and clothing as it was for decades.Support the show Learn more about your ad choices.

But despite our technological advances – sometimes archeology throws us a curveball – leading us to ask questions we simply can’t find the answer to. The cases on this list cdisplay such anomalies. These are 5 Bizarre and Unexplained Archeological Discoveries. 5. Frankenstein MummiesIt’s intersting enough to find ancient mummies, but more perplexing is to find these once mummified skeleton bones don’t even belong to the same human being. But that’s what archeologists and scientists discovered in South Uist, Scotland. Since the 80s, archeologists have identified Clad Hallan in Scotland as a special site containing ancient settlements dating back around 2000 BC. In 2001, it was business as usual for the archeologists, digging away at ancient 11th century houses over the Bronze age Village, when they discovered four preserved skeletons. One was a teenager, the other a child. The Two others were skeletons of an adult male and female. These latter two intrigued the team. 4. China CarvingsFuxian Lake in Yunnan Province, China is a huge lake featuring water so clear the ancient Chinese used to refer to it as “a large area of shining glass.” But its shimmery surface is also hiding something special underneath. On June 13, 2015, archeologists uncovered remains of an ancient structure buried under the lake. They found large stones with mysterious carvings, proving that at one time, a large complex or structure might have stood above ground or at least close to the lake.3. Giant Footprint of PingyanStories of giants roaming the Earth have been told for hundreds of years. From the Bible, to the Greeks, these tales are told with awe but often dismissed as nothing but literature and legends. But a discovery of a giant footprint in Pingyan, China could change all that. 2. Macedonian Werewolf SkullWerewolves are traditionally creatures of myth. But it seems proof of their existence might have been found in Novo Selo Stipsko, Macedonia. A Bulgarian student was visiting the village while doing research on the Balkan Wars when he came across a farmer named Trayche. He told him he was digging in a new portion of his field when he discovered a buried box that was chained shut. On the inside cover of the box were Cyrillic script, commonly used in Macedonian and Bulgarian language. The text on the box roughly read as “Attention Danger Werewolf” or “Caution Danger Vrykolakas (vampire.)1. Domestic Dinosaur CarvingThanks to Tomb Raider, the temple complex of Ta Prohm in Siem Reap, Cambodia gained so much attention it’s become one of the most visited tourist attractions in the world. Built between 1181 and 1218 A.D., the temple monastery was once used for worship by the Mahayana Buddhists. When the empire broke up, the temple then became abandoned. The forest moved in and reclaimed much of the structure until it was discovered in the 19th century. Much of the site was excavated, some restored and much of the forests and trees cleared out.Support the show Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The film first came out in 2004 and featured a crazed murderer who kidnapped two men and chained them up in an underground bathroom. In order to get out, they had to saw their way to freedom. In what seemed to be a stroke of inspiration, Kramer puts on a mask, the same one used in the film, went to his landlady’s apartment, 82-year old, Hanna Litz, and stabbed her more then 50 times. 4. Alex MengelIt began on February 24, 1985 when Alex Mengel’s vehicle was pulled over for a traffic violation in Westchester, New York, by Officer Gary Stymiloski. Inside the car was Mengel and three of his friends. After the officer found shotguns in the trunk, he asked for a license but Mengel didn’t have one. He called dispatch to run a license and registration check, but Mengel had other plans.

Mengel then took the patrol car, drove it for about a mile before abandoning it. 3. Danny RollingTo shock, titillate and terrify - Danny Rolling’s employed all three when he murdered five Gainesville, Florida students between November and August of 1990. Rolling’s disturbed behavior formed during his early years. A product of an abusive household, he grew up in Shreveport, Louisiana with a sadistic police officer father. His mother allowed the abuse and never protected her sons. In his teens, he dropped out of school and started a series of robberies in Georgia and When he became an adult, it wasn’t any better. 2. Hadden ClarkHadden Clark hailed from Troy, New York, and was born and raised in an affluent family. But despite the abundance, abuse played prominently within the household. Both parents were alcoholics and when they drank, the four children took the brunt of it. Hadden, however, had it worse then the others. During his childhood, his father called him a “retard” while his mother dressed him in girl’s clothes and called him “Kristen.” It didn’t help that at school, Clark was also heavily bullied. He retaliated by torturing animals, decapitating them and leaving their heads at the front doors of the kids who bullied him. 1. Edward PaisnelKnown as the “Beast of Jersey,” Edward Paisnel inspired terror on Channel Island, Jersey, off the English Channel. Between 1960 and 1971, he victimized unsuspecting children and women before he was finally captured. On the outside and to the children, he was known as “Uncle Ted.” A kind, genial man who dressed up as Santa Claus for Christmas, gave them gifts and laughed. Paisnel’s mother-in-law ran a children’s home called La Preference which Edward frequented. He also hung out at another children’s home called Haut de La Garenne. Meanwhile, he and his wife hosted orphans in their home. All this gave him very easy access to his victims.Support the show Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

They provide assistance, treat us and make sure we’re on the mend. Our vision of these caretakers is almost immaculate, however they can also be a source of malice, injury and even death. The 5 people on this list are terrifyingly scary. These are 5 Scariest Nurses You Don’t Want Treating You. 5. Beverly AllittShe’s known as the “Angel of Death.” And Beverly Allitt earned that nickname after murdering 4 young children and injuring several others in a baffling crime spree driven by her attention-seeking compulsion. The Lincolnshire, England nurse repeatedly failed her nursing exams but caught a break when she was given a temporary job in the Childrens Ward 4 of Grantham and Kesteven Hospital in 1991. Being chronically understaffed, the hospital needed all the help they could get. 4. Daniela PoggialiDaniella Poggiali found her patients “annoying” according to police, this was the only reason she killed them. The 45-year old nurse from Lugo in Northern Italy was arrested in October of 2014 when a 78-year old woman named Rosa Calderoni, mysteriously died under her care. Prior to that, authorities had suspected Daniela’s involvement in other deaths. They had noticed that in March 2014, there were five unexplained patient deaths in a span of a single week. All of them died during the night when Daniela was the only one working in her ward.3. Charles CullenDescribed as the most prolific nurse killer in recent history, Charles Cullen, killed because he didn’t want to see them suffer and wanted to help them. At least in his own twisted mind that’s what he believed. Born in West Orange, New Jersey, Cullen is the youngest of 8 children. By the time he was 9 years old, he attempted his first suicide by drinking chemicals from a chemistry set. This would be the first out of 20+ suicide attempts. Cullen later dropped out of high school after his mother died in a car accident. He joined the US Navy, serving aboard submarine USS Woodrow Wilson, before being transferred to USS Canopus because he was showing signs of mental instability. 2. Stephan LetterAt the same time American killer nurse, Charles Cullen was killing patients, German nurse Stephan Letter was also doing the same. From January of 2003 to July 2004, the nurse killed more than 29 people while working at a hospital in Sonthofen, Bavaria. 1. Arnfinn NessetOne look at Arnfinn Nesset and you wouldn’t think he was a killer. He was a balding man with thick spectacles hanging over his face. Mild-mannered and polite, he had over 20-years of nursing experience under his belt. But in 1977, when he took over as the director of the Orkdale Valley Nursing Home, in Orkdale, Norway, patients began dying at an alarming rate.Support the show Learn more about your ad choices.

But there are certain forests that you should be weary of And The five woodlands on this list have gained a reputation for being sinister, dark and even deadly. These are 5 Frightening Forests You Should Never Visit 5. Devils Tramping GroundOver 120 years before America gained its independence, locals have whispered that inside the pine woods of Chatham County in N. Carolina lies a 15-foot wide circle where no life has ever grown. They call it the Devil’s Tramping Ground. Year after year, no plant life grows within the circle. Despite being surrounded by forests and trees, no plant life ever grows within this circle. No trees, no flowers,no anything and Locals say even when plants are transplanted within, they just wilt and die. 4. Man Finds Missing Person’s ShrineJames Rankin was on a leisurely hike in October of 2016 exploring Huntington’s Berkeley Jackson County Park in New York when he came across a terrifying site. He was walking along when something posted on the trees caught his attention. He took a closer look and to his surprise, they were pieces of printed paper placed inside a plastic file sleeve. Theyhad been posted on individual trees around a portion of the forest. Rankin looked closely at each one and realized they were missing posters. 3. Pine BarrensPine Barrens, New Jersey is dubbed as one of the most haunted forests in North America. Why? There’s a couple of reasons. First, it’s home to the terrifying Jersey Devil. Second, there are supposedly multiple ghosts seen in the area. Third, it’s a place where real life abandoned ghost towns are found. For centuries, countless urban legends have surrounded this mysterious forest. Over time, the stories change but the central characters remain. 2. The Black ForestSitting alongside the Rhine River, you’ll find a deep, dark forest with such a thick canopy of tall trees hardly any sunlight penetrates through. This area in Germany is known appropriatly as the Black Forest. For many, the Black Forest has become synonymous with evil forests you would find mentioned in haunting fairytales. In fact, we have the Brothers Grimm to thank for that imagery since many of their stories set in deep, dark forests take inspiration from this location. 1. Interstate 85For many, the trees lining one of America’s busiest interstates is just like anywhere else. But what they don’t know is that Interstate 85 in Atlanta, Georgia is a hidden dumping ground for bodies. The entire 200–mile stretch of the Interstate starting at the Georgia corridor down to the tip of South Carolina has become a dumping place of murdered and missing people.Support the show Learn more about your ad choices.

In older, abandoned instituations, sometimes sinister torture occurred that has left behind a dark impression that still exists today. The places on this list gained a reputation not just for what went on during their heyday, but more so for what went on afterward. These are the Top 5 Most Frightening Asylums & Hospitals in the World.5. Eloise HospitalConsidered the most haunted location in Michigan, the Eloise Hospital or Asylum has become synonymous with ghost stories and hauntings. First opening in 1839, it was named after Eloise Davock, the daughter of Detroit’s then-postmaster. The structure operated from 1839 thru 1982 and was initially created as a poor house and farm. Eventually, additional structures were added into what would become The Eloise Hospital, The Eloise Infirmary and the Eloise Sanatorium. All three made up one large complex and At its height, it had become such a self-sufficient place that it even had its own postal code. 4. Gonjiam Psychiatric HospitalConsidered by CNN as one of the eeriest places to exist on Earth, the Gonjiam Psychiatric Clinic can be found in the small remote village of Gwangju, South Korea. Set against the backdrop of a lush forest, the now-abandoned psychiatric hospital has been left to ruins after it mysteriously closed down in 1995. Although no one knows for sure why it closed, there were a number of reasons put forth. Some were mundane saying it was primarily an issue in sewage disposal, and that the building didn’t have the proper systems in place. 3. Ohio State Reformatory Originally called the Mansfield Reformatory, Ohio State Reformatory is not only well known for its dark and sinister legacy but also because of its beautiful Gothic architecture. It first opened in 1886 with Its main purpose to humanely rehabilitate first time offenders. This goal earned the reformatory praise for its revolutionary step towards prison reform. 2. Tranquille Sanatorium Built in 1907, the Tranquille Sanatorium sits in a small town known simply as Tranquille in British Columbia, Canada. This sanatorium was first set up by King George the 7th as a primary center for treating and containing tuberculosis patients. 1. Danvers Lunatic AsylumBuilt towards the end of the 19th century, Danvers Lunatic Asylum has become an iconic structure in the Boston, Massachusetts area. Set on a hilltop, the asylum occupied 1.5 miles of land and followed the strict mental asylum system known as the Kirkbride Plan. With this design, the central administrative building was placed at the center while the buildings towards the East housed the female patients and the West reserved for the males.

Pyramid on the MoonOur pyramids on Earth are a marvel by themselves, but is it possible there’s a pyramid hiding in our moon too? Many believe so and Oddly enough the idea of a pyramid hiding on our moon comes from non other then NASA itself. During the Apollo 17 landing on the moon, they took multiple pictures of the lunar surface as well as the rover and other items there. These photos were eventually released to the public and eagle-eyed viewers saw something more in one of the images.One image is said to have captured a pyramid sitting on our lunar landscape. The supposed pyramid image is officially labeled by NASA as “LRV Floor? Sunstruck.” 4. Fake Moon Landing July 20, 1969 was a historic day for mankind. It was the first-time anyone had ever set foot on the moon. However, many aren’t sure we ever actualy, went there or at least not on July 1969. According to a recent survey, at least 20% of Americans don’t believe we landed on the moon in 1969. They say, if ever we did, it was much later than that and point to various “discrepancies” and anomalies in the footage of the landing. First, there’s the obvious images and film of the waving flag. Many argue that if space is a vacuum then why are there ripples on the American flag? 3. Fake Moon RockSince the moon landings were a celebration of mankind’s achievement, NASA and prominent astronauts, Armstrong, Aldrin and Collins embarked on a world tour shortly after their successful mission. During this tour, they also officially gave away “moon rocks” as a sort of souvenir and sign of peace and goodwill to over 100 countries and officials all over the world. One such moon rock was given to then Dutch Prime Minister, Willem Drees in 1969. It was former American Ambassador, J. William Middendorf, who presented it to Mr. Drees as a private gift. After the prime minister’s death, however, it was handed over to a meuseuam in the neatherlands in 1988. 2. Music on the Dark Side of The Moon & Secret Military Base Apollo 10 launched in May 1969 and was the second manned craft destined to orbit the moon. Inside it was a crew of three astronauts, John Young, Eugene Cernan and Thomas Stafford. While they were heading toward the dark side of the moon, they were expecting to hear nothing since they knew they would lose all transmissions from Earth, but that’s not what happened. Once they got to the far side, the astronauts heard an unusual whistling sound. The audiotape of their conversation was made public and you can hear John Young and Eugene Cernan discussing this mysterious sound. 1. Hollow Moon TheoryThe idea of a Hollow Moon first came to life in the 1901 H.G. Well’s novel, the First Men in the Moon. The story told of two men landing on the moon and finding it to be an actual base, occupied by a unique alien race. For many conspiracy theorists, this is more than just a story and they say could actually be a reality.Support the show Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Malachi MartinEvery horror fan will have heard of The Exorcist but not many may know that the priest played by actor, Max Von Sydo, is based on a real-life priest by the name of Malachi Martin. Born in Ballylongford, Ireland, Father Malachi Martin was one of four siblings, all of whom became priests with Martin and another brother, also becoming academics. Father Martin took a doctorate in archaeology, oriental history and semitic languages. He extended his studies to include rational psychology, physics, anthropology and also took part in research about the Dead Sea Scrolls. 4. Widow GhostCurrently In the small village of Tha Sawang, Thailand, the men are afraid to sleep. For months, the men in the village have been trying to fight a paranormal entity dubbed locally as the “Pee Mae Mai” or the “Widow Ghost.” So far, close to a dozen “strong, healthy men” have died without any strong medical reason. The villagers and the family of the men claim they were all healthy and did not show any sign of sickness at all but still succumbed to death in their sleep. Out of fear their next male relatives might die next, some of the villagers sought the help of a spirit medium to consult the spirit world about what was happening. 3. Mark and Debby Constantino Well known for being constantly featured on The Travel Channel’s Ghost Adventures, Mark and Debby Constantino were known for being primarily EVP (electronic voice phenomenon) investigators. They’re often featured on the ghost show to help explain or identify audio recordings of captured spirit voices and ghosts. Married since 1989, it’s Debby who had “the gift of attracting spirits” while Mark was a believer in the afterlife but didn’t experience any unusual manifestation until he had met his wife. Eventually, the couple became known in the lecture circuit and the TV exposure furthered their careers. 2. The Iceman’s GhostOn September 19, 1991, German hikers, Helmut and Erika Simon stumbled across a frozen, dead body high up on the Ötztal Alps close to the Austrian–Italian border. They thought the corpse was that of a recently killed mountaineer so they informed officials as soon as they could. The body was extracted along with the various items nearby, on September 22nd. A local archeologist, Konrad Spindler examined the body and dated it to be around “4,000 years old” basing it on the items found near remains. 1. Curse of King Tut and Tomb of TimurMummies and curses go hand in hand. And there’s no others more famous then that of King Tut and the conqueror Timur. King Tut’s tomb was first discovered in 1922 by Howard Carter, at the urging of his financial backer, George Herbert, the fifth Earl of Carnarvon. On November 22, 1922, Howard, the Earl and his daughter managed to open King Tut’s tomb and found several golden artifacts inside. Legend has it that the night the tomb was opened, all of the lights in Cairo went out.Support the show Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Gudang Padang Megalithic Site, IndonesiaGudang Padang is a site that sits close to the village of Karyamukti in West Java, Indonesia. First mentioned in the Report of the Department of Antiquities in 1914 and again in 1949 by Dutch historian, N.J. Krom, this place was only first officially visited in 1979 for archeological and historical purposes.What makes the Gudang Padang Megalithic site so fascinating is the possibility it could be the biggest megalithic structure ever built in the world. Even more, it could also be the oldest structure discovered so far, dating back sometime between 5,000 to 23,000 years old. To put in perspective, if true, it is older than the Egyptian Pyramids and even Gobekli Tepe in Turkey. At 23,000 years old, Gudang Padang and those that lived there were likely thriving and standing before the last Ice Age occured in 11,700 B.C. 3. Baalbeck, Lebanon Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the ruins at Baalbeck in Lebanon is considered a cornerstone of ancient civilization. The area has shown continued human habitation since 9000 B.C., making it an important part of human kinds ancient history. Through the centuries, Baalbeck has been a religious site for Christians, Muslims, Romans and even the Mesopotamians. In fact, many of the structures built there were once religious temples used by its inhabitants to serve and worship their respective gods. 2. 33,000-year-Old Bosnian PyramidsDiscovered in 2005, the Bosnian Pyramids are stirring up controversy for our current historical timeline.For centuries, the hills around Visoko, Bosnia were thought of as nothing more than just natural formations. It wasn’t until 2005 when Dr. Sam Osmanagich, an amateur archeologist and a decades-long pyramid enthusiast, first visited Visoko and noticed it seemed there was something more underneath the 3-foot thick vegetation. After researching and visiting hundreds of pyramid complexes around the world, he recognized the hill had noticeable slopes, triangular faces, obvious corners and a deliberate orientation. This led him to believe these “natural hills” were actually forgotten pyramids. 1. The OsirionConsidered as one of the most ancient sites in Upper Egypt, Abydos is believed to be where the ancient head of Osiris was buried. For centuries, it’s been considered a sacred city Hence, it was chosen as the location for the Great Temple of Abydos, otherwise known as the Temple of Seti I. The Temple of Seti I is the only structure in Egypt with a unique “L-shaped” design. It’s also known for having some of the finest raised reliefs and the only one with a full list of the Kings and Gods that presided over Egypt.Support the show Learn more about your ad choices.

Cosmo DiNardoIn Bucks County, Pennsylvania, between July 5 and July 7, 2017, four young men were indiscriminately murdered by 2 cousins.

He’s had more than 30 run-ins with the police but somehow has never been charged or convicted for anything. Meanwhile, his second cousin, Sean Kratz, had been in and out of jail following several burglaries including stealing a dog and lawn equipment. Despite being cousins the two were never really that close. In fact, they only started hanging out in the months prior to their gruesome killings. 3. Brian HawkinsFor 25-years, Brian Hawkins from Redding, California, kept a dark secret – and it was that he had killed a man. One day Brian walked into the KRCR news station and said he was “sick of running” and that his newfound faith in “God and Christ” along with his own conscience has convinced him to admit his role in the murder of then 19-year old, Frankie McAlister.Frankie’s body had been found a year after he went missing in May of 1993. His vehicle had been abandoned in a Costco parking lot, Blood was found on both the interior and exterior of the car.

Robert DurstBorn to NYC mogul, Seymour Durst and his wife, Bernice, Robert Durst from New York City, is one of four children. Even as a young kid, he appeared to have psychological problems. Robert once underwent counselling for his sibling rivalry and in 1953, a psychiatrist diagnosed him as having “personality decomposition and possibly even schizophrenia.” By the time he was in highschool in Scarsdale, he was described as a loner. He went on to enroll in a doctoral program at UCLA after college and this is where he first met, Susan Berman. Eventually he became a real estate developer, but the family business was later appointed to his brother, Douglas, instead of him. This proclamation caused a huge rift between Robert and his family, leading to eventual estrangement. 1. Henry Lee LucasBorn in Blacksburg, Virginia, Henry Lee Lucas had a dysfunctional childhood and family life. His dad was an alcoholic and his mother was a sex worker. As a child, he was forced to watch his mother have sex with her clients and she would often dress him as a girl. She also beat him heavily, even hitting him once with a plank on the head that sent him into a coma for 3 days. When he was 10 years old, he suffered an accidental eye injury. His mother ignored it until it got infected and it had to be removed and replaced with a glass eye. By this time, Lucas, had become an alcoholic and his brother and “Uncle Bernie” (his mother’s lover) had introduced him to animal torture and bestiality.Support the show Learn more about your ad choices.
