101 - The Haunting of 6304 Beryl Road 35:27

hace 3 years35:27

35:27

Happy Halloween, spooky babes. Thank you for your patience as I slowly made my big butt back to the pod. I'm here now! <3 Some houses are occupied by the restless spirits of those who have passed within their walls. They leave signs of their presence if you pay close enough attention, sometimes they even have enough energy to touch you, or move something in your home. Other effects can be more insidious...a dark thought injected into the brain, a cloud of hopelessness left lingering in the air for all to consume. Both appear to be the case at 6304 Beryl Road, where Esperanza and Gary Belofsky experienced a haunting that in the end, resulted in their story being one of the only cases of death attributed to paranormal activity in recorded history. Let's get dark. Today's episode was sourced & inspired by the Medium.com article "American Ghosts" by Jaq Evans https://medium.com/truly-adventurous/american-ghosts-ac41e9f2966b Background music by Jordan/@weareadamnednation Intro/Outro music by BrainMire Join the family.

100 - The Movement for the Restoration of the Ten Commandments of God 45:03

Thank you for patiently waiting, my babes. This is the last solo episode for awhile! Pardon my cold on this. <3 The Movement for the Restoration of the Ten Commandments of God used fear of apocalyptic proportions to persuade its followers to give up all their earthly possessions and devote themselves to the cult. The abusive tactics are similar to many others we've discussed on the show before, and sadly, this didn't end any better than those. The majority of the Movement's followers would lose their lives to the homicidal tendencies of its leadership, being poisoned, bludgeoned, and trapped and a terrible fire, after one too many failed end of days predictions. Dive with me down the cult rabbit hole, and Let's Get Dark. The source for this episode was The Uganda Cult Tragedy: A Private Investigation by Bernard Atuhaire Join the family! Support the show…

Kyron Horman was a second-grader at Skyline Elementary in rural Portland Oregon on June 4, 2010, as families gathered at the school for the annual science fair. He posed proudly in front of his tree frog exhibit as his stepmother took a photo, and then by all accounts, Kyron completely disappeared. The search that followed would end up being the largest in Portland history, and the investigation into the circumstances surrounding his disappearance uncovered truly bizarre details of his family life, and his relationship with his stepmother, the last person he was seen with.

The Andreasson family was going about their daily routine one evening in 1976 when a UFO landed in their backyard. There were flashing lights outside, the electricity went out in the house, and suddenly, there were visitors INSIDE the house, asking Betty Andreasson to come with them. Betty thought they may be sent from Jesus, but they sure looked like aliens. Eventually, they coerced her into joining them on their spacecraft, but that was just the beginning of her horrifying encounter.

Two days after her pharmaceutical tycoon boyfriend's 6 year old son Max, suffered from a terrible fall under her care, 32 year old Rebecca Zahau was allegedly found hanging from a balcony at the Coronado, California mansion where they spent summers. It was a tragic situation that might seem logical, except for a few major details: she was found with her wrist and ankles bound behind her body, she was nude, and there was a cryptic message written near her body that doesn't seem like it was written by Rebecca. The investigation uncovered a ton of hinky details that only muddied the waters further regarding both deaths. We take a deep dive into what happened ten years ago at the Spreckels Mansion...join us, and let's get dark with the bizarre death of Rebecca Zahau.

93 - The Ernie Rivers Poltergeist 1:11:41

hace 4 years1:11:41

1:11:41

In Let's Get Dark's very first "Midnight Session" episode (those with a paranormal/esoteric subject matter) we discuss the very first Poltergeist in a housing project in the US: the haunting of 13 year old Ernie Rivers and his grandmother Mabelle Clark. Ernie had a tumultuous childhood, which culminated in an incredibly active and physical poltergeist that tormented him & his grandmother for months in 1961. The fact that they lived in public housing, meant that various officials began interceding in their lives, and the activity escalated so terribly that Ernie was removed from his grandmother's custody. There were elements of race and class discrimination rampant throughout their entire ordeal, and one has to wonder how differently the situation would have been handled had they not been a poor black family. But, when it came down to it, no one who witnessed the activity in the apartment could rationally explain what was taking place there. What happened at 125 Rose Street to Ernie and Mabelle? Join us as we take a dive into the "Project Poltergeist" rabbit hole, and Let's Get Dark. Our source for this episode was the amazing article at Medium.com by Saleah Biacaflor https://medium.com/truly-adventurous/project-poltergeist-745f2d498849 Check out our website for all the links and to pre-orde our new glow-in-the-dark shirt!

92 - The Murders of Amina & Sarah Said 1:27:36

1:27:36

Yaser Said moved to America from Egypt in 1983 and shortly after, at the age of 30, married 15 year old Patricia Owens. By the time she was 18, the couple had three children under the age of five, and severely struggled to make ends meet. Yaser was a controlling and abusive husband and father, particularly focusing his attention on his beautiful daughters, who he saw as a way to secure financial success once they were old enough to marry off to wealthy "suitors" back in Egypt. When they rebelled against this abuse, an already mentally troubled Yaser completely lost it, and the end result was the tragic and brutal murder of the two bright young women who were unfortunate enough to be born into this unstable family. Join us as we discuss the murders of Amina and Sarah Said at the hands of their father, Yaser. If you or someone you know are experiencing abuse, here are some resources: http://www.womenslaw.org/ http://www.breakthecycle.org/ http://www.ndvh.org/ http://www.stopvaw.org/ If you have a paranormal story of any kind, record yourself telling the story on your phone or computer, and email it to us for our next episode!
