  • The Ludlow Massacre: Blood in the Coalfields
    Jun 10 2026

    On April 20, 1914, the wind howled across a barren stretch of land known as Ludlow in Southern Colorado. It carried with it the scent of ash, and something far worse. Beneath the blackened earth lie the dead bodies of men, women, and children. This was not the site of a war or some revolution. It was the site of a massacre.

    So, get cozy, my spooky friends. Today, you will hear the story of the Ludlow Massacre and how this event affected the labour laws of today.

  • The Murder of Oceana Sneed
    May 29 2026

    Today, our friends at the podcast Fresh Hell take us back to 19th-century Kentucky to uncover the haunting and tragic story of Oceana Sneed — a woman whose life became tangled in betrayal, violence, and one of the most infamous family murder scandals of the era. What began as whispers of greed and forbidden relationships would soon erupt into a horrifying crime that shocked an entire community and left behind questions that still linger today.

    Who was Oceana Sneed really? A devoted wife trapped in impossible circumstances? A calculating conspirator? Or a victim of a much darker family dynamic hidden behind closed doors? Fresh Hell podcast will unravel the twisted relationships, suspicious deaths, courtroom drama, and chilling aftermath that transformed this case into a true-crime legend.

    As always, listener discretion is advised. Fresh Hell contains discussions of murder, violence, and disturbing historical events that may not be suitable for all audiences.

    So dim the lights, settle in, and prepare yourself… because some family secrets were never meant to stay buried

  • The French Loudun Possessions: Devils, Desire, and a Burning Truth
    May 27 2026

    In 1632, an entire convent of nuns was allegedly possessed by demons. In the centre of all this was a Mother Superior, an exorcist, and a priest. By the end of these events, one would become famous, one would go insane, and the last one would be dead.

    So grab a rosary, my spooky friends. Today, we are going to talk about one of the most famous cases of mass possessions in history.
