So excited for creepy season! And that means all new episodes of This Story is Nuts with a creepy twist the entire month! Also, keep an eye out for BONUS episodes! They will be sprinkled in for the entire month of October!
Today's Episode:
Roland T Owen would check into the President Hotel in Kanas City on a Wednesday afternoon in 1935. The man himself wasn't strange- he was anywhere between 20-35 years of age, had dark hair, a noticeable scar, and a cauliflower ear.
The bellhop would notice that Roland hadn't brought any luggage - and only carried a few personal items- items he would remove from his pockets when he arrived in his room. A housekeeper would also note Roland's behavior as slightly odd as he seemed to prefer to stay in his dimly lit room- keeping mostly to himself except for the strange man who visited his room- the man with the gruff voice- who Roland was heard arguing with some time later.
Even though his actions as he entered the hotel were strange- the craziest part of this story was when Roland T Owen would end up dead- brutally murdered in fact, only three days after he had checked into the hotel room.
It is a story that 86 years after it happened still gives people goosebumps. A story with very few answers and tons of questions- questions like what really happened in room 1046?
