Bringing you all things murder, mystery, and more is the podcast Krakens and Kreepers! Together, Tank and Sydney will unearth urban legends and forgotten villains leading you down a dark and twisted road of kreepiness with a touch of lightheartedness and a lot of awkwardness.
Tank covers the Spokane Serial Killer, Robert Lee Yate Jr. Cops were on their a-game with this dirtbag. Though he had an impressive array of awards from his service in the army, the Washington cops were not fooled. One victim got away, and that was enough for cops to finally put this waste of space in prison forever. Good riddance.
Sydney takes the reins in part two of The Monster Mash episodes! A tourist devil, a battle of the ages, and an omen of death scarier than your mother-in-law. Dare to be scared with these tales of comedic horror. Tank is a side character in this quest of terrors, would you like to be also?
Tank brings to the table three monsters from across the states. He wows you with a kiss of death, an eternally burning man (Disclaimer: it is not THE BURNING MAN...SORRY), and a werewolf that just might have been a Russian hitchhiker! Tune in to be mystified by these urban legends. P.S. Sydney is just along for the ride! She did NO prior research which is a big change-up!
The West Mesa Bone Collector is an unsolved serial killer case in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Sydney goes on rants about this waste of space and the lives destroyed by the psycho while Tank inputs some necessary comedic relief.
Tank brings to life a creature from nightmares; the boogieman of Spanish folklore. While Sydney keeps it light with her bouts of awkwardness and ability to make the most normal of conversations kreepy. This episode is not for the easily startled. It will make you want to sleep with the light on.
In this episode, we dig deep into the latter part of the Candyman's sick killing spree and the lives he took before being killed himself. Also included, his stash spots for body dumps, how he himself was killed, and how no one was safe from his perverse fantasies.
Sydney covers the beginning of 'The Candy Man' (AKA Dean Arnold Corll), his early life, and his first known killings. She then covers his meeting and corruption of his first teen accomplice David Owen Brooks. Tank and Sydney also discuss the age-old argument of nature vs nurture and whether or not his "normal" childhood and adolescence played a part in his extremely gruesome and depraved crimes which will be discussed in depth next episode. Hear our thoughts and tell us yours on this strange man who brutally murdered and assaulted 27 young men in the Heart of Texas!
Sydney and Tank are kicking off their first episode with Texas's take on the headless horseman. They delve into the origin of this headless man tracing him back to the 6th century, all the way across the Atlantic ocean, and into Celtic folklore. Following his travels throughout Ireland, Camelot, Scotland, Germany, Scandinavia, and New York. They finally end up in the brush country of South Texas where a heinous act of justice creates a horrifying legend.
