Malice In Wonderland

In Becca's first solo episode, she dives into Mark Twitchell, an aspiring filmmaker and serial killer. Fortunately for the public, he was caught after his first murder. Unfortunately for Star Wars fanatics, his full-length prequel film will never be released. This case was an easy solve for investigators. Despite his love of fictional serial killer Dexter Morgan, Twitchell didn't follow Dex's #1 rule: don't get caught. Instead, he preemptively filmed a movie about his murder plans, then wrote a 42 page diary about the whole thing.

In our long-awaited continuation of the Jodi Arias case, Amber covers Jodi's time in court. And if you thought the defendant was bananas, wait until you hear about the legal teams and expert witnesses involved in the trials. Psychologists go back and forth on whether Jodi is suffering from trauma or BDP, the juries keep agreeing that Jodi is eligible for the death penalty but can't decide if she deserves it, and Jodi herself spends the years weighing her desire for attention against the possibility that one wrong move could send her to death row. Jodi also designs a T Shirt, Becca gives an armchair diagnosis, and we reveal the details of those “special hugs” your youth pastor warned you about.  Follow us on Twitter and Instagram @miwpodcast, and find us on Facebook @Malice In Wonderland Podcast.

Jodi Arias was the ex girlfriend (with benefits) from hell. Casual sex with your ex is all fun and games until they break into your home and murder you three times over. Travis Alexander sadly learned this too late. In part one, we cover the discovery of Travis’ body, the autopsy and crime scene findings, and Jodi’s multiple alibis. We don’t manage to settle the great Jodi Arias: Hot or Not debate, but we can agree she would not be, as Jodi herself would put it, “a potential possible maybe person that you might start dating.”To get updates on the show, follow us on Instagram @miwpodcast or Facebook @Malice In Wonderland Podcast.

It’s every parent’s worst nightmare: drug-laced Halloween candy. When young Tim O’Bryan ate a poisoned treat, the community of Pasadena thought they were looking for a monster. Tim’s dad told horror stories of a strange hand in a darkened doorway that gave him the deadly candy. But police soon discovered that the perpetrator was much more insidious than anything in any slasher film. When The Man who Killed Halloween was finally made to pay for his crimes, locals celebrated in the street, yelling “trick or treat” and pelting any Candyman sympathizers with leftover Halloween sweets. His antics still have parents double checking their kids’ holiday hauls and opting for controlled trick or treating events with trusted friends, but the Candyman’s legacy is much more ominous than the story of what actually happened in a small Texas town in 1974.Don't forget that Malice by Tranquil Finds by Lakin disappears on Halloween night!

You’ve probably seen films like The Conjuring and The Haunting in Connecticut, but do you know the stories of the real families that lived through the events?

Anyone who knew Anneliese Michel could tell you how strong her faith was. Born into a Catholic family that boasted several “numbs,” as Amber mistakenly calls them, she attended Mass twice a week and sought ways to atone for the sins of others. But even the most devout are susceptible to possession. It’s believed that six demons, including Lucifer himself, took up residence in Anneliese. Over the course of nine months, Anneliese underwent 67 exorcisms before she eventually died from dehydration and malnutrition. Was she actually possessed? Or was there a physiological reason Anneliese started eating bugs, barking like a dog, and emitting a scent that was described as “hellishly bad?” We don’t have the answer to that, but in this episode, Amber will give you all the information you need to draw your own conclusion.  The Malice in Wonderland-inspired candle and wax melt are out!

It’s Halloween month, y’all! In our first episode of October, Becca tells the story of a wine cabinet that holds a malevolent spirit that smells like cat piss. Supposedly. Whether it’s true or not, the story is a wild ride. According to legend, two young girls trapped the spirit in the box on Kristallnacht and the spirit got revenge by jumpstarting the Holocaust. Then, after several decades and eBay auctions, the box wound up in Las Vegas, where it recently cursed Post Malone. Some doubt the truth of the box’s lore. And by “some,” we definitely mean us.  The Malice in Wonderland-inspired candle and wax melt are out! You can buy them here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/TranquilFindsByLakin.

Think your former fave is problematic? Imagine being a part of Revere High School's Jeff Dahmer fan club. Part one of Jeffrey Dahmer follows Jeff’s origins, his first murder, and some of the tactics he used to try to satiate his needs before committing a second murder. This episode doesn’t cover the cannibalism or sex zombies that launched Dahmer into the serial killer hall of infamy, but it does feature some bone-themed science experiments, a stolen mannequin, and our very first guest star!  If you want to hear more episodes like this, check your favorite podcast platforms every Monday.

Did you know your right ass cheek contains less blood than your left ass cheek? We didn’t either, until the dumbest cannibal alive taught us how not to cannibalize a specific cut of human meat. Issei Sagawa did unspeakable things to someone who considered him a friend, and then made money off of his crimes. You might be asking how this is legal. The answer? A super rich daddy and jurisdiction laws. Sharpen your fruit knives and prepare to get schooled on the art of cannibalism by someone who thinks the human body is full of corn. If you want to hear more episodes like this, check your favorite podcast platforms every Monday.

Becca may rethink her family’s tradition of eating ribs on Thanksgiving after this case. Omaima Nelson and her new husband, Bill, should have been basking in newlywed bliss, cooking and eating their first holiday meal together. Unfortunately, Bill ended up on the table with the cranberry sauce and stuffing. Omaima claims she killed in self defense and only cooked Bill to hide evidence, but she also said his ribs were comparable to those she’d had at Texas barbecue joints, which doesn’t seem like the kind of thing someone who didn’t cannibalize their husband would say. If you want to hear more episodes like this, check your favorite podcast platforms every Monday.

Dorothy Hoogstraten was a kind, vivacious, and exceedingly gorgeous 18-year-old girl when she met Paul Snider, a 27-year-old pimp with an impeccably manicured mustache who, upon seeing Dorothy, told his friend “that girl could make me a lot of money.” What started with wooing and modeling, transitioned into fame and money, and ended with the senseless murder of Hugh Hefner’s most beloved Playboy Bunny. If you want to hear more episodes like this, check your favorite podcast platforms every Monday.

On February 19, 1994, Gloria Ramirez entered Riverside General Hospital’s ER. In less than an hour, she managed to harm 23 people, 5 of which had to be hospitalized. How? Nobody knows. To this day, it remains a medical mystery. Gloria didn’t do anything, except lay on a stretcher, trying not to die as the staff attempting to save her life started becoming ill. After three autopsies and numerous toxicology tests on the hospital’s air, we only know one thing for sure: it definitely (probably) wasn’t aliens.  If you want to hear more episodes like this, check your favorite podcast platforms every Monday.

Sue Basso, nee Peek, nee O’Malley, was a woman who tried to have it all. She wanted money, she wanted a personal servant, and she wanted a relationship outside of her sexually open marriage. She also likely wanted a son that didn’t readily admit she used fraud, torture, and murder in an attempt to achieve all of the above, but we unfortunately can’t choose our family. Police were told Sue’s most recent crime was spurred by a broken Mickey Mouse figurine, but further investigation quickly revealed a sinister plot that goes far beyond Disney collectibles. If you want to hear more episodes like this, check your favorite podcast platforms every Monday.

Have you ever caught yourself thinking, “she’s just not that into you, bro?” Someone really should have told that to Paul Warner Powell. In this episode, Amber tackles the case of one of America’s dumbest murderers who was so arrogantly stupid, he literally signed his own death warrant. Buckle in, kiddos, because we’re gonna take you on one hell of a ride as we cover the story of unrequited lust, murder, and one guy’s serious inferiority complex. For more information on the S.T.A.C.I.E. foundation or to purchase Lorraine Whoberry’s book, Heal My Wounds, Leave My Scars, visit www.staciefoundation.org. If you want to hear more episodes like this, check your favorite podcast platforms every Monday.

On the very first episode of Malice in Wonderland, Becca covers Matthew Hoffman and his gauche taste in seasonal home decor. We talk about Matthew’s journey from a mostly-harmless neighborhood weirdo into a monster straight out of a slasher film.
