    We're continuing to celebrate spooky season with an Adam Brody marat--what? That's not what we're doing? Oh. Well, we're back with another horror movie review to help us ring in the spookiest of seasons with even more content for you all. This week, we dive into a well (but not literally) and by that, of course, we mean that we watched The Ring. This movie is a favorite of Meara's and a least favorite of mine, so join us to argue about whether or not it's a bad movie. Maybe it's just nostalgic, maybe it's bad or maybe, possibly it's as good as Meara says. You'll have to let us know what you think! And fun fact, we are also recording this on The Ring's 20th anniversary as it came out on October 18, 2002! Completely unplanned but I kinda love it. Anyway, keep up with our socials and turn notifications on to get notified of more spooky content this month!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mysteriocities/Twitter: https://twitter.com/mysteriocitiesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/mysteriocitiesYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfFll8QzuoJ7T6E3RrRjyqATikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mysteriocities

    We've all heard of the Bermuda Triangle, but some of you may not be aware that there are other mysterious places in the world also shaped like a triangle where strange and unusual things happen. In the middle of Lake Michigan you'll find such a place, where ships have sunk, where a plane has crashed, its wreckage never to be found, and one captain went to his quarters on his vessel and was never seen again. Maybe you'll say it's just bad weather, or what happens when you're out on rough waters, or maybe something more is going on out there... let us know what you think!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mysteriocities/Twitter: https://twitter.com/mysteriocitiesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/mysteriocitiesYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfFll8QzuoJ7T6E3RrRjyqATikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mysteriocities

    We're back from our one week hiatus and bringing you a very well known and tragic death that happened in Los Angeles a decade ago now. Elisa Lam is a familiar name to most in the true crime and conspiracy scene as the elevator footage of the last known sighting of her has circled the internet and received millions of views. Internet sleuths tried their hands at guessing what happened to her that ended with her body found in one of the hotel's water tanks, and while some people think it was nothing more than her having a psychotic break that ended with her trying to hide from imagined pursuers, others think her end was caused by more sinister means — whether by hotel staff or a guest, or maybe even one of the hotel's many ghosts.

This one takes some twists and some turns and by the end of the story, you're probably going to have more questions than answers - on whether she had more victims that we just don't know about, and where she spent out the rest of her days if she was alive at all.

So we go into all of the details about the tallest mountain the world (by most definitions anyway). While for a while you might think this is a mountaineering podcast, we go into the bodies that have been left on Everest, making it the world's largest open-air graveyard. The darker side of Everest is a fascinating subject that brings up a lot of debate and controversy as to what's called Summit Fever, and the potential of leaving behind or ignoring people in need because you're risking your own life in the process.

Though the FCSO gave into pressure and announced the GBI would be conducting their own investigation, it closed with the same result of it being an accident. But that investigation brought to light some disturbing details with officers involved, and when an independent autospy was done, it brought to light even more missteps.

We dive into the mysterious death of Tamla Horsford, who went to an adult sleepover with some football moms and by morning, was found mysteriously dead on the lawn. The investigation was handled badly from the start, in a historically racist county and as she was the only black person at a party of white people, many people wonder had the situation been opposite, would it have been handled the same way?

No official answers were ever found though there are endless amounts of theories about what happened to her. Unfortunately, some have darker connotations that relate heavily to what's happening today (and stick around for the end if you're in for a political rant).

Whether you do or don't, buckle up because this is our longest episode ever (somehow, we don't know how, probably because all of the movie references, and possibly because since the VHS is in two parts, we simply felt we needed an extra long episode to do the topic justice)!

    Trigger warning for sexual assault; time stamp for that particular part of the episode is 18:30 to 19:00. We're back for Part Two of the Monster of Florence where we break down the investigation, the suspects, and the theories that follow. Morgan also now has a complex about her inability to pronounce absolutely any name ever -- and now can absolutely never play Mario Kart ever again. But jump on in with us because there's a whole lot of suspects and it's up for debate if we even know who the Monster of Florence is!The Monster of Florence by Douglas Preston and Mario Spezi: https://www.amazon.com/Monster-Florence-Douglas-Preston/dp/1455573825Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mysteriocities/Twitter: https://twitter.com/mysteriocitiesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/mysteriocitiesTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mysteriocities

    Trigger warning for sexual assault with a foreign object, sexual assault, and mutilation, this is definitely a skip if you have any of those triggers -- they present themselves multiple times throughout this episode!For episode nine, we're heading to Italy to talk about the Monster of Florence, a serial killer that most people would say was never caught. This will be a two parter, we run through the deaths, and vaguely get into some of the suspects arrested during the killings. Morgan also overcooks potatoes because she put them in before we started recording and then forgot about it, so rest in peace to the potatoes.

This time we're here for our first ever collab episode, where Meara gives us the background and Morgan gives us the stories.

    It's Morgan's birthday week, and episode 4 - so tell us what's more exciting! We start with a little present unboxing before jumping into the Pine Barrens, one of the most haunted places in the United States. We delve into some historic newspaper articles which is a treat and a half, and Meara talks about her love of the New Jersey housewives. Located on 1.1 million acres of land, you might find the Jersey Devil there, maybe some ghosts, but definitely some abandoned mills and mines, and some delicious food at Lucille's Country Cooking. Ghost Towns: And Other Quirky Places in the New Jersey Pine Barrens by Barbara Solem-Stull: https://www.amazon.com/Ghost-Towns-Quirky-Places-Barrens/dp/093754860XGwent set: https://www.etsy.com/shop/EnthusiastKobar?ref=simple-shop-header-name&listing_id=1194454658Gift box: https://www.etsy.com/shop/UndertheSeventhRay?ref=simple-shop-header-name&listing_id=1077847609Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mysteriocities/Twitter: https://twitter.com/mysteriocitiesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/mysteriocitiesTik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mysteriocities

    We're back again for episode three, where Meara didn't even lie and pretend she liked the fruity mules that were made. We're veering into some more ghostly shenanigans, this time out in the ocean: the Mary Celeste, which was discovered in 1872, and the Ourang Medan, which was allegedly discovered sometime in the 1940s. Morgan also questions the skills of people giving us locations in the ocean, and Meara gives us so many nautical terms that we're considering setting sail.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mysteriocities/Twitter: https://twitter.com/mysteriocitiesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/mysteriocitiesTik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mysteriocities

This time, we're drinking blueberry lemonades while Morgan gets passionate about the Friday the 13th theme song (for what reason is still unclear), we talk too much about National Treasure, and we talk all about the conspiracies involving the Denver International Airport.
