Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicate Take the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/survey IN THIS EPISODE: When a German princess entered a Roman convent seeking spiritual peace in 1858, she uncovered a shocking conspiracy of fake miracles, sexual abuse, and murder orchestrated by a beautiful young nun who claimed to be a living saint. (Nuns of Sant’Ambrosio) *** The 1904 St. Louis Olympics featured a marathon where runners were given rat poison instead of water, racists created humilating displays of indigenous peoples, treating them like zoo animals, a runner tried to cheat by taking a car partway through the race, and more chaos so complete that Olympic officials considered canceling the Games forever. (The Nightmare 1904 Olympics) *** Scientists tracking impossible orbits of frozen worlds at the edge of our solar system have calculated that something with ten times Earth's mass is hiding in the darkness — and it might not be a planet. (Planet X or Something More Terrifying) *** The elite Air Force guards who protected secret technology at Area 51 are now dying from radiation exposure, but the government refuses to help them because their service at the base remains too classified to even acknowledge they were stationed there. (Invisible Enemy of Area 51) *** In 1973, a seven-foot-tall creature covered in muddy white fur terrorized the small town of Murphysboro, Illinois, leaving behind massive footprints, mysterious black slime, and police reports that turned skeptics into believers.
