In this episode of the Crack House Chronicles Donnie and Dale discuss the horrific serial killer Kenneth Allen McDuff. McDuff killed three high school students the night of August 6th, 1966, repeatedly raping and sexually torturing one of them first. He'd be sent to death row for those crimes. But then, he'd have his sentence reduced to life in prison. And then, he'd get released on parole at the age of 43 and start killing again within 72 hours of leaving prison. Find out what legal changes made his release possible, and how his case drastically changed Texas's criminal justice system once he was caught and put back on death row. https://www.crackhousechronicles.com/ https://linktr.ee/crackhousechronicles https://www.tiktok.com/@crackhousechronicles https://www.facebook.com/crackhousechronicles Check out our MERCH! https://www.teepublic.com/user/crackhousechronicles SOURCES: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenneth_McDuff https://txtruecrimeblog.squarespace.com/blog-archive/kenneth-mcduff https://www.texasmonthly.com/true-crime/free-to-kill-2/

When all evil things of earth and air and water held revel.” – Bram Stoker, from “Dracula's Guest”. Walpurgis Night is something most English-speaking listeners won't know about – but it's being celebrated at this precise moment. While others are currently celebrating “Halfway to Halloween” or “Half-o-ween” for short… in Germany, they're celebrating a second Halloween which they call Walpurgisnacht – or “Walpurgis Night.” Plus, later in the show I'll share a story that was intended specifically to be read on Walpurgis Night – it's called “The Black Bargain” from PJ Hodge!CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate and Only Accurate For the Commercial Version)…00:00:00.000 = Show Open00:01:37.995 = Happy Walpurgisnacht, Everyone00:34:34.458 = The Black Bargain (a Fictional Story To Be Told on Walpurgis Night)00:48:10.168 = Show CloseSOURCES AND RESOURCES FROM THE EPISODE…“Happy Walpurgisnacht, Everyone!” by Todd at GothicHorrorStories.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/a8svp23c“The Black Bargain” by PJ Hodge, posted at FreakyFolkTales.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/j49bd4=====(Over time links seen above may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

In this Beltane 2025 episode of Back on the Broomstick, Laylla and Chelle light the fires of the season with a warm and witchy exploration of all things Beltane; from ancient rites to modern magic. They begin with a look at the history of the May Queen, a surprisingly short but deeply symbolic tradition that still holds power in today's rituals. Whether you're dancing around a maypole or honoring the turning of the Wheel quietly at home, this episode is full of inspiration for how to celebrate Beltane as a solitary witch, including ribbon magic, sacred fire ideas, and simple ways to connect with the rising energy of the land.The witches share a spell to honor the May Queen or May King within yourself, tapping into your own sacred vitality, creativity, and wild joy. They also talk about the community from their old Beltane festivals and how excited they are to share another Beltane with that same group! The witches are more than ready for open fields, bonfires, ecstatic dance, and the deep magic of shared seasonal celebration!They touch on a bit of current controversy too; specifically some recent conversation around the Beltane Fire Society in Edinburgh, where a new tax may be causing issues with this years celebration. No, it's not about how they pronounce Edinburgh wrong (though, yes, they have in the past), but rather a conversation around public paganism and potential targeted harassment in the form of administrative paperwork and fees.Whether you're rekindling old traditions or crafting new ones, this episode invites you to stand in your own sacred spark, celebrate the beauty of Beltane, and remember that the fire lives in you, too.Fire Festival 2025Fire Festival ControversyGot a question?

Book 6, Chapter 24: Sectumsempra
In this episode of Back on the Broomstick, Laylla and Chelle are joined by astrologer Laurie Farrington to discuss her latest book, How to Read and Interpret a Birth Chart: Guideposts for Understanding Natal Astrology. Laurie brings decades of experience interpreting the stars through a deeply intuitive and grounded lens, and this book reflects her commitment to helping others align with their soul path through astrology.During their conversation, Chelle confesses her long-standing fear of astrology (mostly due to the math) and Laylla drops an astrology secret of her own. Together, they dig into what sun, moon, and rising signs really say about us, why Laylla thinks astrology charts are basically a celestial Tarot spread, and whether Mercury retrograde is truly something to fear or just misunderstood cosmic drama. Whether you're fluent in your birth chart or still wondering what a rising sign actually does, this episode offers an open-hearted, witchy look at the skies above and the wisdom they hold.Laurie's WebsiteLaurie's SubstackGot a question?

The witches are calling upon the divine in this episode of Back on the Broomstick as Laylla and Chelle share ten (give or take) of the gods and goddesses they work with in their magical practice. From the cauldron-stirring wisdom of Ceridwen to the hearty laughter and boundless generosity of The Dagda, they discuss the deities that have shaped their paths, guided their spells, and occasionally smacked them upside the head with a life lesson or two. And in a shocking twist that will surprise absolutely no one, Chelle will, of course, have Hecate on the list.The witches also take a moment to talk about the Blood Moon that graced the skies on March 14th, bringing with it a transformative energy perfect for removing obstacles from your path and maybe a little bit of bringing justice to light. What did this lunar powerhouse mean for the witches, and can you still tap into the full moon energy even after it's passed?Whether you already have deities you work with or are just starting to feel the pull of divine magic, this episode is a mix of history, personal stories, and a whole lot of witchy laughter. Grab your grimoire, pour one out for the gods, and join Laylla and Chelle for a divine discussion filled with magic, mischief, and a little moonlit madness.Song: Ceridwen and Taliesin by Damh the BardCerridwen by Kristopher HughesThe Horned God of the Witches by MankeyGot a question?

For our 100th episode, we're getting nostalgic and stirring up a little bit of chaos! This week, we're blending the best of Back on the Broomstick with our old podcast The Stoned Witches Hour, bringing you stories of Tarot curses, cryptids, and dropping a bit of cannabis knowledge along the way.Laylla kicks things off with a tale about a tarot reader who threw a curse at a party girl during the summer of love in San Francisco. Chelle stays true to her paranormal-loving roots with a dive into an Ohio frog cryptid (because why wouldn't there be a frog man haunting the Midwest?). And in true Stoned Witches fashion, we talk about what we're smoking while Laylla answers Chelle's cannabis questions, including what the heck THCA is and whether “bellacarphan” is a real thing or just another classic Chelle mispronunciation.To wrap up the episode, we're giving you some witchy wisdom on how to tell if you or your home are cursed, and more importantly, what to do about it! Whether you've got a suspicious string of bad luck or just love a good magical defense strategy, we've got you covered!It's been an incredible 100 episodes, witches!

Hour 3 Audio from WGIG-AM and FM in Brunswick, GA
Best friends Jac and Amy conduct a literary analysis of Sarah J. Maas's debut novel, Throne of Glass. In this episode, they discuss chapters 1-6. Each episode is broken into 2 parts. This is part 2 of this week's episode. Come back on Tuesday where they will explore chapters 7 - 10. (Spoilers for Throne of Glass, Crown of Midnight, and Heir of Fire will be discussed. Any larger series or other SJM spoilers will be reserved for the end of the episode in the Breadcrumbs and Broomsticks section.) Every episode, Jac and Amy use their combined 13 years of literary academic training to analyze and give voice to reasons why you may love or hate today's popular books. They embrace and respect modern fantasy, romance, and romantasy books written by women. And so, it is in their nature to analyze these books as you would any other novel you might have discussed in school. Chapter summary for this week's episodes: After a year of slavery in the Salt Mines of Endovier, Celaena Sardothien is given the chance of a lifetime: to compete for the role of the King's Champion and earn back her freedom. Despite the lack of respect she receives from the Crown Prince of Adarlan and the Captain of the Guard, Celaena agrees to their terms of engagement to enter the competition as Dorian's candidate for Champion. Over the following weeks, Celaena – formerly Adarlan's greatest assassin – travels in chains with the Prince's retinue back to the capital city, while the past and many secrets that haunt her lurk around every corner.

I call to Medusa, monstrous hero of the oppressed and abused. I open the Eye of Medusa, the stare that petrifies injustice.I call upon the serpent that rises from this land to face the Stars, the movement of wisdom unbound.May these leaders find within themselves the Embodied Divine, the sacred essence of the spark of the Universe and the breath of the Awen.Place in the hands of these leaders the sacred work of protecting the sovereignty and autonomy of all our people.Gorgon Goddess, make them ready and willing to be champions for all in this city, not just those in power.Shine a light for them, that they may walk the path of justice, protected and prepared, illuminating the darkness.Endow them with the fire of courage, the waters of compassion, the air of truth, and the strength of the earth itself.As Above, so below.As within, so without.As the universe, so the soul.May there be peace among you all.And so it is.Got a question?

Send us a textGet ready to light some candles and clutch your crystals, because this week on Back on the Broomstick, Chelle and Laylla are sharing one of their most unforgettable—and unnerving—paranormal experiences; the time they recorded a Ouija board session in a notorious haunted house, an encounter so chilling it made Chelle swear off ever stepping foot in the place again.Our witchy hosts then take you on a journey through the fascinating history of spirit communication, tracing séances from Victorian parlors to modern-day living rooms. You'll discover the surprising origins of the Ouija board, which began as a simple parlor game but evolved into one of the most feared and misunderstood tools in paranormal investigation.The episode tackles the age-old debate: are Ouija boards truly portals for demonic energy, or have they been unfairly demonized by pop culture? Chelle and Laylla weave together historical accounts, personal experiences, and spiritual insights. They'll also share their own hard-earned tips for safe spirit communication (pro tip: maybe don't start off with questions like “Is anyone evil here?”). Their discussion expands into more ghostly encounters from their personal vaults and the various ways spirits may attempt to connect with the living, sharing touching stories of how departed loved ones have sent signs to their families.Whether you're a skeptic or a true believer, this episode is packed with eerie insights, nervous laughter, and magical advice that will have you looking over your shoulder—and maybe reaching for your own spirit board (with proper precautions, of course!).
