LIZZIE BORDEN’S FINAL TESTIMONY: Inside The Mind of the Most Famous Murderess In History

What really happened inside the Borden house that bloody summer morning — and could Lizzie’s silence have been hiding more than just guilt? EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/LizzieBordenFinalTestimony READ or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/mb5xas3d FEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: She looms large in the annals of American crime lore. A romantic relationship gone awry and troubles at home could explain why many still believe Lizzie Borden killed her parents. (Spending The Night With Lizzie Borden) *** Many years before Adolph Hitler and Germany’s Nazis created Auschwitz, there was another concentration camp that experienced deaths in tens of thousands. But this encampment of turpitude wasn’t located in Germany – or anywhere near Europe. It was located in the land of the free… the home of the brave. The USA. (The Devil’s Punchbowl) *** Several people have returned from their near-death experiences reporting they were briefly in the fiery pits of hell. Is there any truth to their claims? (They Escaped Hell’s Clutches) *** Have you ever seen what appears to be a shadow person or dark figure (stationary or moving) with your own eyes, close up or far away, ​maybe even in your peripheral vision or dream state? Perhaps you have felt the sensation of someone  standing behind you and then you turn around but no one was there? What is it that you are seeing when this happens? (Who Are The Shadow People?)

Eight million dollars in thousand-dollar interplanetary bills is already checked through the counter in Pauker's luggage, the take from the Brinks-Interplanetary job he set up from the inside, and he's standing in the prep building with nine months of space in front of him when a blond baggage man ten paces down the hall starts asking after a passenger with a red scar under his left eye.

THE CREMATORIUM: R.C. Horsch Paid His Way In To Film The Dead In Kensington | #WeirdDarkNEWS

Years before anyone counted the women missing from 417 W. Chew Avenue, Raymond Horsch was trading drugs and cash for access to the Kensington crematorium at the center of Philadelphia's body-parts scandal, where he photographed and filmed the dead and later hung the pictures in a gallery. Police are looking into it, two women who posed for him have spoken, his son left a five-star Google review for a different crematorium ten months ago, and Eugene Horsch's federal trial has been pushed back to March.

HAUNTED ORPHANAGES: 15 Places Where The Children Never Left Playing

HAUNTED ORPHANAGES: 15 Places Where The Children Never Left

As the 1900 hurricane flooded Galveston, the Sisters at St. Mary's roped the orphans to their own bodies, and Walmart employees working on that ground today say they've heard a child calling for her mother – one of fifteen orphanages on three continents where people report the sound of children crying, singing, and walking where no children are. EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/HauntedOrphanages READ or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/2p8ctdbc FEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: We’ll explore chilling stories of haunted orphanages, where the echoes of heartbroken and lonely children linger long after the buildings have been abandoned. (Haunted Orphanage Stories) *** “If only these walls could talk,” we’ve heard people say. But what if the walls could talk? In the world of paranormal investigations, the “Stone Tape Theory” is gaining recognition – or at least raising eyebrows and intrigue. Could the walls of your home have recorded your horrific death – and then replay that scene as a haunting? (The Stone Tape Theory) *** One thing is for sure in this life – and that is, your life will eventually cease. How you go out could make or break your legacy. Freak accidents are something you’d probably want to avoid, but they happen – and I have a few examples to share. (Weird Deaths) *** In the misty expanse of Bodmin Moor, a tragic tale of love, jealousy, and murder unfolded in 1844. When Charlotte Dymond's lifeless body was found, all eyes turned to her lover, Matthew Weeks, whose subsequent execution left many questioning his guilt. (The Tragic Tale of Charlotte Dymond) *** The Urantia Book – a fascinating and controversial text that blends science, religion, and philosophy into a cosmic narrative of divine beings and celestial order. But no one knows who wrote it. (The Urantia Book Of Cosmic Thought) *** I’m trying something new by telling a true story of old murder in an old detective style… I call it “Murder Noir” and tonight’s case will be the death of Jeanette Earnest in Fort Worth in 1954. (Murder Noir, Jeanette Earnest) *** On Monday 17th October 1814, a terrible disaster claimed the lives of at least 8 people. A bizarre industrial accident resulted in the release of a tsunami onto the streets of London… comprised entirely of beer.
