Welcome back to To Die For! We are finally done with the horrors of the Toy Box so we now have to move on to the horrors of an island entirely covered in dolls. This place is definitely the stuff nightmares are made of but don't worry.

Welcome back to episode 65 and our dive into the super spooky ookies that is The Exorcist! We take a quick detour from our main story to talk about the curse that seems to have attached itself to the movie. We have weird fires, horrendous injuries, churches struck by lightning and even death. If all of that wasn't enough for you we move on to the real life possession of a young boy in the late 1940s. His story would become the book that would then become one of the scariest movies of all time.

Not only is the movie one of the all time scariest movies with all kinds of its own weird ass spooky ookies (just wait until next week) but it also had a real life murderer as one of the extras. Paul Bateson had a lot of things going for him until everything fell down the booze hole, and then it all went to hell, bad pun fully intended.  So get comfy and be ready for one crazy story of murder that just might make your head spin (see what I did there?) Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/todieforpodcast)

Welcome back to Sin City baby! For episode 63 we head back to the strip for some high stakes hauntings at some of Vegas' best known hotels. What's even more fun was that Lizza and Noodles were just recently at some of these places and they share their own weird (possibly ghost induced) stories from their trip to Zak Bagan's the Haunted Museum.

In episode 62 we start at the north end of the strip and work our way down through residential homes, sketchy motels, and the well known hotel/casinos. We have mobsters, we have celebrities, we have super creepy pervy bathroom ghosts and so much more. As an added bonus Lolo gets another slang lesson, we learn a new prison word, Lizza's dog goes bonkers on a bone in the background and Lolo's cat collar occasionally jingles, so that's super fun.

In honor of Lizza and Noodle's trip to Vegas our new topic is Sin City itself! We've got mobsters, we've got mayhem, we've got murder and so much more as we explore the life and death of Union Boss Al Bramlet. If all of that wasn't enough for you stick around to the end where we have an in depth conversation about the sexiness factor of several different uniforms as suggested by loyal listener Constant Alchemy (p.s. you rock!) Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/todieforpodcast)

Its not hard to imagine that with all of the bad juju going on around the Gein farm and the places where Ed committed his crimes that there are spirits roaming around.

Turns out this topic was just too good and the answer to the universe was too massive to be contained in one episode so this will be a 2 parter! Also, things kind of run amok towards the end of the episode so please enjoy the weirdest game of telephone ever to be podcasted. We take a ride up the tractor beam for our true crime story and we take a look into the incredible rise of the Heaven’s Gate cult which ultimately ended in the largest mass suicide to ever happen on US soil.

First we tackle the absolutely wackadoodle account of the assassination of Georgi Markov. Y'all, this one is straight out of a James Bond movie so definitely get your shaken, not stirred, martini ready! Then we move onto one of the most famous buildings in all of London, the Tower.

Both of the stories for this week’s topic were just way to detailed to fit in one episode, but instead of doing halvesies and trying to remember what you heard the week before we are going to do the true crime this week and the paranormal next week. We may love it, we may hate it, but either way we will see how it goes! One of the most notorious guests to ever call the Cecil home was none other than the garbage human Richard Ramirez, aka the Night Stalker. This serial killer went on a rampage in the 80’s with no discernible pattern, type, MO, whatever you want to call it.

For our 2-fer topic this week we head down/up the west coast to a tiny rock in the middle of the San Francisco Bay. This tiny rock was known as the most daunting and escape proof prison of it's day. And by now I'm guessing you have figured out that we are covering none other than the infamous Alcatraz Island. With a long and varied past, which just so happened to usually be pretty violent, this rock has true crime AND the supernatural just oozing out of it's crumbling concrete walls.
