Welcome back to Death by Champagne, the podcast here to keep you up at night! We are back this week to bring you a few legends and their possible true crime origins. Mack brings us the Hook Man Legend and it’s possible association with Texarkana Moonlight Murders. Liv brings you the Babysitting Horror story brought to life with the murder of Janett Christman, along with another possible connection.
This episode contains foul language, topics regarding murder, rape, child murder and rape, and spooky legends. We’ll do our best to stay on track, but the bottles are popped!
