Before Natalie was born, her mother visited a phsyic who told her that her daughter was going to pass by drowning. (Wouldn't this have been a clue to not allow your child to want to become an actor?) After hearing about this gripping case, Elana and I both come to the conclusion that there is much more to this story than what is being told. Was Christopher Walker involved? Were people paid off if it was truly not an...2023-08-1728 minMurder, Mysteries, and BestiesJack The RipperThis week, we cover the terrifying case of Jack The Ripper.

While only striking at night while people slept, the Axeman was said to be responsible for 12 attacks and 6 killings. In a chilling fashion, the Axeman would only ever use what he could find on hand, usually an ax, which was then left at the scene of the crime.

All signs point to him, but others say it...2023-03-1138 minMurder, Mysteries, and BestiesJonBenét Ramsey {Part Two}In the second, and final, part of the JonBenét Ramsey case, Elana dives into the final suspect that she found while researching.
