But the owner of the skull hadn't been dead too long, for the local people said they remembered the creature before it died. And even more shocking – they personally knew some of its descendants – a cross-breeding of Bigfoot and human beings! (Villagers Remember Descendants of Bigfoot) *** A young woman falls unconscious and awakes with a fantastical story about fairies kissing her, how she was treated like a princess by them, and falling in love with one of the fairy men. While you might say it was just a fanciful dream, how do you explain that this girl also woke up with clairvoyant abilities? (The Fairies and Anne Jeffries) *** On 15 July 1910 the Sheffield Evening Telegraph recorded the anniversaries of the day. One particular entry was this: “Prison hulks first seen on the Thames…1776”. But what were the prison hulks, and what was life like on board these ‘floating hells,' as they came to be known? (Floating Hells) ***Depending on whether or not you want to get the scare of your life, you will either want to, or not want to honk your car's horn three times on Burnt Mill Road in the Pine Barrens area of New Jersey. If you do, you risk an encounter with the Atco Ghost. (The Atco Ghost Legend of New Jersey) *** Archaeologists excavating the tomb of an ancient Egyptian queen just discovered something chilling… a 13-foot long scroll – a lost chapter from Egypt's “Book of the Dead”. (Queen Nearit's Book of the Dead) *** Feeling the Lord Ganesha wanted milk, a man ran to get some and placed it before the elephant headed statue in a temple near his home. Then it happened… the milk disappeared as if the statue had consumed it. And then the same thing happened to others… and others.

Am Morgen des 1. Juni 1902 mach William Harsent eine schreckliche Entdeckung: Seine 22-jährige Tochter Rose liegt tot in der Küche ihres Zuhauses. Eine seltsame Notiz, eine nächtliche Verabredung und eine geheime Schwangerschaft machen die Geschichte ihres Mordes weltbekannt, doch zu seiner Aufklärung können sie letztendlich nicht beitragen. Erkundet mit Katharina und Nina warum die Suche nach Roses Mörder im Grunde von Anfang an zum Scheitern verurteilt war und welche Rolle dabei Gerüchte und eine voreingenommene Dorfgemeinschaft spielen. // Quellen & Shownotes // - Turton, K.; Britain's Unsolved Murders; Barnsley 2019 - Mitchell, R.; The Peasenhall Murder: Who Killed Rose Harsent?; Auf: Historic Mysteries, Artikel vom 13.

A birdwatching getaway in the Peak District that should have been uneventful was the inspiration for this episode, with my wife and I accidentally choosing to stay just a few hundred yards from the scene of a notorious set of murders, which we learned about by chance. It seems that true crime follows me everywhere… (my wife still doesn't believe that I really didn't know when we booked it!)The lives of an escaped criminal and an unsuspecting family converge in a dramatic and bloody home invasion set against the cold, bleak, back-drop of Beeley Moor in 1977, a period which would become known as the ‘Year of the Knife'. This episode covers the Pottery Cottage murders and culminates in an explosive finale, while the next instalment will explore the Gunn Hill killings, which took place just a month later.************************************************************************************** Thanks for listening!

Im Dezember 1811 wird das Londoner East End von Verbrechen heimgesucht, die aufgrund ihrer Grausamkeit und Rätselhaftigkeit bald zur bekanntesten britischen Mordserie werden sollte: die Ratcliffe Highway Mord. Erst die Morde des vermeintlichen Jack the Ripper sollten diesen fragwürdigen Superlativ wieder für sich beanspruchen.

Find Weird Darkness wherever you listen to podcasts: https://linktr.ee/weirddarkness IN THIS EPISODE: A young woman falls unconscious and awakes with a fantastical story about fairies kissing her, how she was treated like a princess by them, and falling in love with one of the fairy men. While you might say it was just a fanciful dream, how do you explain that this girl also woke up with clairvoyant abilities? (The Fairies and Anne Jeffries) *** On 15 July 1910 the Sheffield Evening Telegraph recorded the anniversaries of the day. One particular entry was this: “Prison hulks first seen on the Thames…1776”. But what were the prison hulks, and what was life like on board these ‘floating hells,' as they came to be known? (Floating Hells) *** Depending on whether or not you want to get the scare of your life, you will either want to, or not want to honk your car's horn three times on Burnt Mill Road in the Pine Barrens area of New Jersey. If you do, you risk an encounter with the Atco Ghost. (The Atco Ghost Legend of New Jersey) *** Archaeologists excavating the tomb of an ancient Egyptian queen just discovered something chilling… a 13-foot long scroll – a lost chapter from Egypt's “Book of the Dead”. (Queen Nearit's Book of the Dead) *** Feeling the Lord Ganesha wanted milk, a man ran to get some and placed it before the elephant headed statue in a temple near his home. Then it happened… the milk disappeared as if the statue had consumed it. And then the same thing happened to others… and others. (The Hindu's Milk Miracle) *** It was in 1975 when the first skull of what was believed to be Bigfoot was found. But the owner of the skull hadn't been dead too long, for the local people said they remembered the creature before it died. And even more shocking – they personally knew some of its descendants – a cross-breeding of Bigfoot and human beings!

The murder of Emily Armstrong was in danger of being lost as a story. Historical true crime is such a good learning tool for attitudes of the past and today, we learn about not one, not two but THREE unsolved murders in the same area of London which may have just had a little to do with each other, particularly when it came to how the victims were treated. This poses the question, if you're old and you're killed, does it matter? Spoiler alert, I think IT REALLY DOES, but the police back in the 1940's may not have had the same view. The same thing goes, if you have no family, does your death warrant the police seeking justice on your behalf or is it easier for them to get on with other cases that they feel are more worth while. It's an interesting argument. Old true crime stories like this are so easily overlooked but I feel they are worth covering. Left out of your average true crime documentary or true crime podcast and hardly, if ever covered by true crime youtubers, it's important to bring some of these tales up from the depths so those that suffered, still have their names spoken.

Jeb and Blake crawl through the cobbled streets of 1978 television to find out what was going on when IN SEARCH OF went looking for Jack the Ripper.  A lot of this episode is about "The Royal Conspiracy" - the idea that Prince Albert Victor (aka "Prince Eddy") was secretly Jack the Ripper.   This was largely derived from a book called Jack the Ripper: The Final Solution, an ironic title since it turned out to be neither final nor the solution.  This was written by Stephen Knight, who appears in the episode. Shortly after this he will develop brain cancer and pass away. The story also involves Prince Albert Victor's surgeon, Dr. William Gull.  We discuss the "modern plague" of Gin in London at the time. (That link is to the Pub Map.) Alert listener Dr. David Cockcroft sent us a link to the 1886 London Poverty Maps of Charles Booth. It's a treasure trove of information contemporary to the time of this case (and the upcoming Sherlock Holmes episode as well). Nimoy Fashion Alert! Did you notice that big book lying flat behind Nimoy's head? That's a book about Vincent Van Gogh. We'll hear more about him in Season 4.  In our bonus episode about pop-culture of JTR we talked about a weird 6-part BBC crime series which pitted two fictional modern TV police detectives against the case.  Wendy Sturgess was one of the writers.  We discuss some of the appalling poverty of the area of London where the murders took place. This included discussion of Jack London's book about London. "The People of the Abyss" - that was the name of a work by American fiction writer Jack London.  It's available online. A young Donald Rumbalow makes an appearance.  We briefly discuss the "wizard money" of England at the time.  The Police News vintage paper is shown several times in the episode. You can search these old papers on the British Newspaper Archive! I elected not to do dramatic readings of the JTR letters, but some of the most famous ones you can read about here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dear_Boss_letter https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saucy_Jacky_postcard https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/From_Hell_letter Dr. J. M. Cameron - chief pathologist of home office (1930 - 2003) makes an appearance. We're not done with the "foggy streets of London" either because we'll be looking into the real identity of Sherlock Holmes in just a few episodes, with return guest Dr. Kenny Feder.

Part 2 of this series' "Monsters Of" episode drops here on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, continuing the horrific tale of triple murder from the 1960's that we began in the previous episode, and this time around, learning how the perpetrator was brought to full justice - almost a half century later . This episode contains descriptions of crimes and events, involving that against children, that some listeners may find disturbing or upsetting, so discretion is advised whilst listening.

With crime-stopping old ladies, fortune-telling dogs and professional walkers-on-heads, it’s all go in the first mini episode for 2019. Join your hosts, Jim and Violet, as they unravel the most surreal, ridiculous, and utter nonsense shorter stories from the historical newspaper archives.

Yesterday's Chip Paper is a fortnightly(ish) podcast that looks at true stories found in historic newspapers from across the world. With hundreds of years of history at their fingertips, the only real limit to the stories that are told is that they have to have happened - or, at least, been reported.

Sent packing by his mother with 7000 Francs to “have an adventure”, Louis de Rougemont would not disappoint. But his fantastical story soon took a nasty turn, as he journeyed to Australasia only to get stranded on a remote island for two and a half years, before living - and leading among cannibals, surviving stormy seas and... riding turtles. De Rougemont returns to civilisation to tell all this and other tales that capture the minds of one nation, and the suspicions of another. Also this week, Violet weirdly also turns to cannibalism (as reported in the papers) and anthropomorphised fruit. Yesterday’s Chip Paper is a fortnightly(ish) history podcast that delves into the weird and wonderful world of historic newspapers. You’ll never know what they’ll find, from Sausage Kings to witch hunts to pugilists turned to preachers, but it is always guaranteed to be downright bonkers. Your hosts, Jim and Violet, are two amateur researchers based on opposite sides of the Atlantic (New York and London respectively).

One of Hull’s most revered fighters both in and out of the ring, Albert Shakesby was the last person you’d want to get on the wrong side of. While he had reportedly saved 30 lives from “violent death” by the age of 29, he also constantly thirsted for a row, whether squaring up to the nation’s best sportsmen or the band of the Salvation Army. So when Shakesby fell to his knees and declared himself saved at the pulpit of an evangelical church, he caused quite the stir across the world, and so the unlikely preacher’s story began. He continued to save lives not only from sin, but from the continuous stream of unfortunate circumstances that seem to follow him wherever he went. A coincidence? Maybe. Also this week, Jim looks into the draws of Santa Cruz through poetry, and advertises Indian Blood Syrup, which is most definitely the cure-all you need in your life right now - unlike that dastardly Snake Oil.

In episode 24, Jim covers the story of Jane Cakebread, a woman once known internationally and now almost completely forgotten. Jane was a likeable character known throughout Victorian Britain and beyond, a woman who got herself in trouble so many times that she broke records for the number of her criminal convictions, and was the catalyst for a huge libel case between a Lady and the Pall Mall Gazette. Jane was so famous, a law was passed because of her. Was she really a drunk, or was it mental illness? Will she ever get her £15,000 inheritance? Is she the best needlewoman in Holloway gaol? Listen to find out.    Also in this episode, Violet covers some Australian traditions (lighting stuff on fire) and a letter to the editor from an Australian J.R.R. Tolkien.    Archives used in the research for this episode: British Newspaper Archive https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk Newspapers.com National Library of Australia http://trove.nla.gov.au/   New York Times Archive http://query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=9D02E0DE113CE433A2575AC1A9649D94699ED7CF   Yesterday's Chip Paper is a fortnightly (ish) podcast that delves into newspaper archives for stories of mayhem and madness from days of yore.

Described as a “vulgar, industrious, shrewd” character worthy of Charles Dickens or Chris Reade, this is the story of, arguably, the most brilliant and bonkers businessman of Victorian London. William Harris, the Sausage King, built his string of sausage shops from the murky misery of Newgate Market, before moving to his glamorous new premises across the road from Smithfield Market. He was known in every household in England, and his fame spread to most every continent in the world. Also this week, Jim reads a lyrical musing about what would happen if people didn’t have to eat, and a gaff of an announcement which has a certain newpaper in all kinds of trouble. This is Yesterday’s Chip Paper, a fortnightly(ish) history podcast that looks at true crime, strange stories, bizarre letters and old poetry from the pages of historic newspapers. Every two weeks or so, transatlantic researchers Jim and Violet discuss a story they’ve found from historic newspaper archives across the world.   Newspaper archives used in this episode:British Newspaper Archive www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/ Newspapers.com www.newspapers.com New York Times Archive http://www.nytimes.com/ref/membercenter/nytarchive.html Papers Past (National Library of New Zealand) https://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/ TROVE (National Library of Australia) www.trove.nla.gov.au/   Articles used in this episode: Birmingham Daily Post - Saturday 20 April 1918 Boston Guardian - Saturday 02 August 1890 Globe - Saturday 19 February 1887, Sat 26 April 1890 Hartlepool Northern Daily Mail - Saturday 13 April 1912 Islington Gazette - Monday 30 June 1890 Nottingham Journal - Tuesday 16 February 1937 The Register (Adelaide, SA : 1901 - 1929)  Tue 4 Jun 1912 Sheffield Daily Telegraph - 13 April 1912 TARANAKI HERALD, VOLUME LX, ISSUE 143815, 13 JUNE 1912 The Tatler - Wednesday 18 March 1903 Washington Post - 28 April 1912 Other sources: The Academy and Literature, Volume 60 -  Academy Publishing Company, 1901 The Charles Pearce Project http://charlespearce.org/people/william-harris.html The Dictionary of Victorian London http://www.victorianlondon.org/markets/newgatemarket.htm London: The Biography by Peter AckroydYesterday’s Chip Paper online:Find us on Facebook: www.facebook.com/paperpodcast Follow us on on Twitter: www.twitter.com/paperpodcast Review us on iTunes GB: itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/yeste…d1165838795?mt=2 Review us on iTunes US: itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/yeste…d1165838795?mt=2

A handsome young couple go to an island off the coast of Ireland to paint, bathe and...murder? In episode 20 of Yesterday's Chip Paper, Jim tells the story of the Ireland's Eye Murder, also known as the Kirwan Case. This true crime story has every element of a classic Victorian scandal: the untimely death of a - repeatedly described in every newspaper as - beautiful young woman, lies, deceit, more lies, lies about those lies and for some unrelated reason a surprise skeleton.  Also in this episode, is window ham genuine?  Yesterday's Chip Paper is a fortnighly(ish) history podcast that looks at true crime, bizarre stories, and curious characters from historic newspaper archives.

Just before midnight on the 14th of April 1912, the RMS Titanic, branded “unsinkable” by the White Star Line, struck an iceberg on its maiden voyage. The ship, which was the largest vessel in the world at the time, was transporting 2,208 passengers and crew from Southampton to New York. Everyone knows how the story ends, but the reports printed at the time of the disaster told a very different story. How exactly did the story go so wrong? Also this week, Jim finds great hatred through poetry, and a letter from a man keen to clear his name from a heinous crime.  Yesterday's Chip Paper is a fortnightly(ish) history podcast looking at all sorts of stories from historic newspaper archives.

In this episode, Jim goes a little off piste and takes liberties with what is and isn't a newspaper, but nonetheless unearths squalid stories of a half-hanged man and the most lavish con man who ever conned. In our letters to the editor, we have mystery vegetables that are probably hilarious and a poem from a child with no friends.

Ingenious inventor or crackpot fraud? This is the question on everyone’s mind with this edition of Yesterday’s Chip Paper. When an English inventor lights up the world’s imaginations with claims of his invisible Death Ray, the War Office is quick to try and validate it. So is Harry Grindell Matthews onto something or is this a fraudulent story gone way too far? Also this week, Jim finds the shortest poem in the world and an ode to the old Hollywood great John Wayne.

On episode 16 of Yesterday's Chip Paper, Jim regales Violet with the terrible tale of Alexander Pearce, an Irishman sentenced to transportation in Tasmania (Van Diemen's Land) in the early 19th century. A repeated escape artist, Pearce and his companions took off one fine day and made good their escape from camp. The events that took place in the following weeks would be murderous, terrifying and life-ruining. For our letter and poem, Violet found a missive from an irresponsible psychic and a poem about a shrill child who meets a tragic end.

Morritt was one of the most famous magicians of his time, Monson was a notorious criminal let off scot-free. What could possibly go wrong when these two household names join forces for a tour? In 1893, Charles Morritt was running highly successful nights at the Prince’s Theatre in London’s Piccadilly. Alfred John Monson was in the centre of the Ardlamont Murder, a famous case that took place in Scotland. The case inspired William Roughead, one of the pioneers of true crime writing, who provides some of the commentary in this episode. Also this week Jim takes a look at gender issues - 1949 style, and Sally’s sister has some scathing poetry.

One balmy, Charleston night in May of 1862, an act of such bravery was carried out that it would turn the perpetrator into a propaganda sensation and a national celebrity (depending on whose side you were on). This is the story of Robert Smalls, a man who went from slavery to the senate in the 19th century South. Also this week, Violet reads out a letter from a terrible person and a poem that gives Jim cluster headaches. Yesterday's Chip Paper is a bimonthly (or so) podcast that delves into historic newspapers to find true stories from columns gone by, be they inspiring, bizarre or completely outrageous. Your hosts, Violet and Jim, are amateur researchers with a love for old newspapers and telling each other what we've found in them, and every couple of weeks we get together to do just that.

In 1932, an Englishman, an Australian and an American walk into a house in Florida. One of them wouldn’t leave alive. This is the story of Englishman Captain Bill Lancaster and Australian “Chubbie” Miller, who met at a party in London, a chance encounter that would spark the most bizarre five years of their lives. Soon they’d embark on a flight to Australia in a tiny Avro Avian, become household names across the world, be welcomed in the states by tickertape parades and movie deals, before falling into the depths of despair. Enter Haden Clarke, the American biographer who’d alter their lives in a way they’d never expect. Also this week, Jim digs up the story of the luckiest fox alive. Honestly, it’s our most bonkers letter to the editor yet.

This is the story of Giovanni Succi, once the most famous name in Paris completely forgotten today. Succi was a hunger artist, a name given to people from across the world who took part in great feats of fasting. Some cited science as their motive, others entertainment, but the one thing they all knew for certain was that they couldn’t ever lose. Enter Succi, the Italian poster boy of the fasting craze, who was prepared to put everything on the line to defeat his rivals with the help of his magical elixir. Succi made a name for himself as the most famous hunger artist in the world, taking part in a series of deadly challenges well documented by the world press.

In the basement kitchen of the Department of Agriculture, 12 young men sat down to a meal laced with poison, an event that would occur three times a day for the next 18 months. This is the incredible story of Dr Harvey Washington Wiley and the Poison Squad, tasked with the experiment of finding out just how bad food preservatives were for the humans. This voluntary undertaking would lead to the formation of the Pure Food and Drug law and subsequent food regulation across the world. But the experiment wasn’t without its setbacks, from a member who couldn’t lose weight to the tragic (though perhaps not surprising) death of one of its participants. Pioneering hero or callous killer? You decide with the latest episode of Yesterday’s Chip Paper. Also this week, a slight overreaction from one newspaper reader on some flowers stolen from his garden, and possibly the most gloriously disappointing poem in the short history of this podcast. Yesterday’s Chip Paper is a fortnightly(ish) history podcast that takes true stories from across the world and tells them through the very words of the historic newspapers themselves. Every two weeks or so Violet and Jim, a pair of transatlantic amateur researchers, pick a story they’ve found in the old newspapers and tell each other (and you) about it.

This week Jim unravels the true story of the criminal who inspired Charles Dickens’ Fagin. Ikey Solomon was a notorious criminal of the early 19th century, a pickpocket turned international star thanks to his incredible plots to plunder his fellow men of their goods. His unbelievable story leads us across London, New York, Rio, Sydney and Tasmania.

It’s witchcraft and murder in small town America in this episode of Yesterday’s Chip Paper. In 1928, 60-year-old Nelson Rehmeyer is beaten to death and set on fire in his home in York, Pennsylvania. The culprit? A self-proclaimed witch doctor and his two (very) young accomplices. Plus, a scornful letter to atomic bombs and a love poem (or is it?) that’s making our heads hurt. This is Yesterday’s Chip Paper, a fortnightly(ish) history podcast that looks at true crime, strange stories, bizarre letters and old poetry from the pages of historic newspapers.

In this episode of the Yesterday's Chip Paper podcast, Jim tells the story of a mystery that swept the nation, as wealthy socialite Violet Gordon Charlesworth dies in a car accident that sees her thrown into the sea near Conway, from a cliff still known as 'Violet's leap'. The case had the nation - and the world - on the edge of their seats, until some strange happenings threw a new light on things.
