Friday means a new episode!! In our fifth episode, Sandra covers the ghostly tale of a Girl with No Face. A young girl abandoned by her boyfriend on a train jumps to what she thinks is her freedom, but is actually her death. Supposedly buried in an unmarked grave, she has no choice but to wander the Chinese University of Hong Kong campus searching for her long-lost boyfriend. Then Danielle talks about the tragic life of Evelyn Nesbit, who later became known as the first supermodel. She was a model and actress during the Gilded Age, who fell under the influence of two wealthy and powerful men. Find out how Evelyn became entangled with the Crime of the Century!
