Kuldhara is a creepy, abandoned village in India. No one knows for sure why it was abandoned. It could have been because of the dwindling water supply, but it could also be because dark spirits roam the grounds that Kuldhara was founded on. What do you think happened?

Its a few weeks late, but here is the long awaited Villisca Axe Murder case from 1912. This is an old, unsolved case from Villisca, Iowa. Kirsten has had this case on her mind since the day we started this podcast. Its one of those ones that just doesn't make sense. Unsolved cases are so frustrating already, but when a whole family and 2 guests are murdered in the middle of the night and no one heard or saw anything, that makes it all a little more suspicious.

For Kirstens second installment of her Halloween episodes, she is bringing you guys the full story of Jason Voorhees, the iconic serial killer from the Friday the 13th movie franchise.
