A child's mutilated torso surfaced from the Thames near Shakespeare's Globe in 2001, and more than two decades later no one has been convicted of killing the boy investigators could only call Adam.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/TorsoInTheThamesREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/3h6yrmk5FEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: Most people, when they think of the end of their lives, want to feel that they have accomplished something of significance. To leave a lasting legacy. But it is much more rare for someone to accomplish something significant – after they are dead! (Done By The Dead) *** Mrs. Elizabeth G. Wharton was a pillar of society in Baltimore, Maryland in the late 1800s. That is, until she was accused of murdering General William Scott Ketchum. (The Baltimore Borgia) *** For every legitimate and fascinating find by geologists, there seems to be a fraudulent find somewhere else trying to fool the masses. This has been a problem since geology became a thing – and one of the most fascinating of these true tales is the one about Baringer's Lying Stones. (The Lying Stones) *** A strange, ape-like creature with glowing eyes in England might really be, as some believe, a specter of the night. (Man-Monkey of the Night) *** It's hard to understand how human sacrifice has ever been a reality in any point in history – but what if you were to learn that evidence of it showed up in London, England… in 2001? (Torso In The River) *** A would-be geisha murders her lover… but the events leading up to and during the death make for a fascinatingly dark story. (The Murderess Geisha) *** When it comes to spectral animals, we're more than familiar with black dogs or hell hounds, ghostly cats, horses carrying a headed or headless phantom, even a ghost bear rumored to haunt the Tower of London… but have you ever heard of the American Southwest's ghost camels?

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: January, 2021This episode of Weird Darkness moves from ghost camels haunting the Arizona desert to corpses that kept making history after death, a Baltimore poisoning that gripped a courtroom for weeks, a professor fooled by carved stones, a child's murder in the Thames that London police have never solved, a Tokyo geisha who killed the man she loved, and a glowing-eyed creature on an English canal bridge.It opens in the American southwest, where the U.S. War Department imported some seventy-two camels in 1857 to haul supplies, only to turn the animals loose in the desert when the Civil War broke out and the soldiers tired of their foul temper and habit of spooking horses. Wild camels roamed Arizona for decades afterward, and one became legend as the Red Ghost — a beast blamed for trampling a woman to death in 1883 and later seen carrying a dead man lashed to its back, a rider who eventually decayed until a human skull dropped from the saddle in front of a group of startled prospectors. An Arizona farmer finally shot the animal in 1893, still wearing the leather straps that had held its corpse rider in place.From there the episode turns to figures who kept shaping the world after they died. A gang of Chicago counterfeiters led by "Big Jim" Kennally plotted in 1876 to steal Abraham Lincoln's body from his Springfield tomb and ransom it for a jailed engraver, foiled by a Secret Service informant working for the very agency Lincoln himself had signed into existence. A grave robber broke into George Washington's crypt at Mount Vernon in 1830 hunting the president's skull and made off with the wrong one. The British philosopher Jeremy Bentham left instructions to have his body dissected and mummified, and it sits on display at University College London to this day. And in the ninth century Pope Stephen VI dug up his predecessor Formosus, dressed the rotting corpse in papal vestments, propped it up for trial, found it guilty, and had it thrown into the Tiber.Next comes Baltimore in 1871, where Elizabeth Wharton, a respected society widow, hosted General William Scott Ketchum in her home on Hamilton Place until he fell suddenly ill and died with twenty grains of tartar emetic in his stomach — fifteen is enough to kill. Police discovered she had bought sixty grains days earlier, and a financial advisor named Eugene Van Ness nearly died the same way after she served him a drink. Her forty-two-day poison trial in Annapolis exhausted the medical and chemical experts of the day, and after deliberating through the night the jury acquitted her of murder.The episode then crosses to Germany, where Johann Beringer, a celebrated professor at the University of Würzburg, spent 1725 collecting strange carved stones dug up on Mount Eibelstadt by teenage boys he had hired — figures of birds, lizards, comets, and the name of God rendered in Hebrew. Convinced they were the handiwork of God himself, he published a book on them called the Lithographiae Wirceburgensis, only to learn the nearly two thousand stones had been planted by two envious colleagues, J. Ignatz Roderick and Johann Georg von Eckhart, who thought him an arrogant know-it-all and wanted to humble him.From an academic hoax the episode moves to an unsolved horror. On September 21st, 2001, a child's headless, limbless torso surfaced from the Thames near the Globe Theatre, wrapped in orange cloth, and London's Metropolitan Police could give the boy no name but Adam. Forensic analysis of poison and minerals in his remains traced him to the Benin region of Nigeria and showed he had been paralyzed and drained of blood in what investigators believed was a muti ritual killing. Nelson Mandela made an international appeal for information, and traffickers including Kingsley Ojo and a caregiver named Joyce Osagiede were investigated, but no one has ever been convicted and the boy's true identity has never been confirmed.The episode carries that darkness into 1936 Tokyo, where Sada Abe strangled her lover Kichizo Ishida in an inn after a days-long affair, then took a kitchen knife to his body and carried a severed part of him away in her handbag. Her capture two days later set off a national obsession the papers called "Sada mania," and her testimony about killing the man she refused to share became a bestseller in a country where such candor was scandalous. She was sentenced to six years, served her time as a model prisoner, and vanished from public life sometime after 1970.The episode closes on a cold English night in January 1879, when a furniture hauler crossing Bridge 39 over the Shropshire Union Canal near the village of Ranton was charged by a shaggy, ape-like creature with glowing eyes that leapt onto his cart and terrified his horse. When he swung his whip at the thing, the lash passed straight through its body, and the creature bolted down toward the canal and vanished. The folklorist Charlotte Burne later learned from the village constable that the sightings had begun only days after a man drowned in that same canal, in a place where people believed a violent death could send someone back in the shape of a beast.
This episode is a re-release; it originally aired October 27, 2022. In this episode, Eckhart answers questions about why it's important to seek awakening and how we can learn to function in a world that seems chaotic. Eckhart says we must learn to awaken to free ourselves of suffering. It is part of our legacy to realize a sense of peaceful aliveness that is independent of our external circumstances. He believes when challenges arise, we shouldn't spiral into unconscious reactivity. He says that only amplifies the problem. Instead, Eckhart suggests we should release our ego and move towards transcendence. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
This episode is a re-release; it originally aired October 20, 2022. In this podcast, Eckhart talks with a live audience in Greece. He cautions participants against the belief that enlightenment is somewhere ‘out there' or is something to be achieved in the distant future. He says we don't have to go through a long process of ‘becoming' to find liberation. Eckhart explains the irony is that when we look to the future, we miss the opportunity to find freedom right here in the present moment. He urges all of us to wake up and to realize we already are who we want to become. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This episode is a re-release; it originally aired October 13, 2022. In this episode, Eckhart reflects on the power of presence and the accompanying state of stillness. He says it's in those moments when we're not thinking that we experience pure awareness. He then answers questions about what presence is not. He says it is not about monitoring our inner state or exercising control over our thoughts or feelings. Eckhart also explains it's possible to be fully awakened and still enjoy the things of this world. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
This episode is a re-release; it originally aired October 6, 2022. In this podcast, Eckhart answers questions about the aphorism “be careful what you wish for.” He says when we attempt to manifest certain desires in our lives, it's critical we discern whether the motivation is ego-driven or something more profound. Eckhart encourages everyone to be who they are at the deepest level. He says anything we achieve on the horizontal plane will also have a downside. Therefore, he encourages us to not get too attached to outcomes. He says as we reach a state of deeper consciousness, we learn to transcend the polarities of good or bad and we simply align ourselves with what is. Hosted on Acast.

Trechos do livro “Os Sermões Alemães”, de Mestre Eckhart.Mestre Eckhart (1260 - 1328) foi um teólogo, filósofo e místico cristão alemão da Ordem dos Dominicanos.Nascido na atual Alemanha, Eckhart estudou em Colônia e Paris, tornando-se um influente professor e pregador. Ocupou cargos importantes na Igreja, mas suas ideias inovadoras sobre a espiritualidade e a relação direta com Deus geraram controvérsias. Foi acusado de heresia pela Inquisição, mas faleceu antes da conclusão do julgamento.Eckhart enfatizava a experiência direta de Deus através da contemplação e do desapego do ego. Ele ensinava que Deus habita em cada pessoa e que o verdadeiro conhecimento espiritual vem da interiorização e do abandono das ilusões do mundo. Seus sermões e escritos exploravam a união da alma com Deus, a necessidade do desapego e a ideia de que a divindade está além dos conceitos humanos.Apesar das acusações de heresia, suas ideias influenciaram profundamente a mística cristã e o pensamento filosófico ocidental. Séculos depois, Eckhart foi redescoberto como um pioneiro da espiritualidade interior. Seu legado ressoa em correntes místicas e filosóficas, inspirando desde teólogos cristãos até pensadores contemporâneos sobre a busca do divino dentro de si.

Originally aired September 8, 2022. In this podcast Eckhart talks with a live audience. He encourages participants to release their thinking so they can become aware of their “being.” He says most of us have a mistaken sense of identity based on what we think about ourselves, but that's not who we really are. Eckhart goes on to quote Jesus who famously said, “You are the light of the world.” Eckhart believes what he meant is that we are all are the light of consciousness and that is our true identity and the source of our deepest essence.

Originally aired September 1, 2022. In this episode Eckhart answers questions about transcending our limitations. He says every human has certain obstacles in their life and facing them is part of the path to awakening. However, Eckhart warns that problems arise when our limitations become part of our identity. He believes we create a false narrative about who we think we are. Eckhart says while it's important to surrender and accept what is, we do not confuse deeper acceptance with acceptance of the narrow concept we mistake for ourselves. Eckhart says we reach transcendence by letting go of those concepts. He believes we should embrace the “is-ness” of this moment and through that transform into the realm of spacious awareness.

Originally aired August 25, 2022. In this podcast Eckhart answers questions on several topics including how to differentiate between a true creative impulse and the ego. Eckhart refers to his own experience of writing The Power of Now. While living in England, he says he felt called to move to Canada. He says he had to discern if the impulse was coming from a deeper place or just a passing whim. He also cautions against listening to the mind and its toxic narrative. After waiting several months, Eckhart realized the feeling was not fleeting but solid intuition. He eventually made the move, and his writing began to flow. Hosted on Acast.

La théologie de Maître Eckhart interroge parce que sa mystique affirme une union très radicale entre l'âme et Dieu, parfois interprétée comme une confusion entre le créateur et la créature. Certaines de ses propositions ont été condamnées après sa mort par le pape Jean XXII comme hérétiques ou suspectes. Le bibliste Régis Burnet explore la figure de ce Dominicain allemand du XIVe siècle, héritier de saint Augustin et père de la mystique rhénane, qui développa une théologie audacieuse du détachement et du vide. Enseignant à Paris, ses oeuvres latines et allemandes lui valurent donc un procès en hérésie. Aujourd'hui, Jean-Claude Lagarrigue, le récent traducteur de ses oeuvres latines, conquis aux interprétations évangéliques du religieux, affirme : « ou c'est un très grand saint, ou c'est un hérétique ». Avec Marie-Anne Vannier, spécialiste de la mystique rhénane et professeur de théologie à l'université de Lorraine, les deux invités décryptent sur KTO, ce génie paradoxal de la spiritualité médiévale.
Originally aired August 18, 2022. In this episode Eckhart answers questions about suffering as part of the human condition. He says many spiritual traditions focus on awakening as the end of suffering. Paradoxically, Eckhart says we need to go through a certain amount of suffering to realize we don't want it anymore. He says oftentimes our suffering is caused not by our life situation, but our reaction to it. He believes much of our pain is generated by the mind and its toxic narrative. Eckhart says we can move beyond suffering by embracing life's challenges. He says they are a doorway into the transcendent realm and that when we step into the light of consciousness, we are free from suffering at last. Hosted on Acast.

Originally aired August 11, 2022. In this podcast Eckhart answers questions about healing from childhood trauma. He says it's important to acknowledge the trauma and to work through it, but not to get stuck in it. He believes while we may feel like a victim it is not ultimately who we are. Eckhart shares stories about his own childhood trauma. He explains that his father had intense anger issues and abandoned Eckhart and his mother when he was just eleven years old. As an adult Eckhart later realized that his father had been traumatized by his own childhood. He says dysfunctional family patterns are handed down generation after generation. He says healing happens when we break the cycle and that by practicing presence, we realize we are more than all the painful things we've experienced. Hosted on Acast.

Originally aired August 4, 2022. In this episode Eckhart talks about the importance of finding stillness. He says we are never more ourselves than when we are still. Eckhart then answers questions about what we can expect during the stages of awakening. He says as we become more conscious, we learn to respond rather than react to conflict. Eckhart explains we may feel the emotion, but it doesn't take us over because ego diminishes as we step into the light of presence. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Employment: May Fox News be held liable for rape and sexual assault allegations against one of its hosts against another of its employees? - Argued: Thu, 16 Apr 2026 9:7:51 EDT
Originally aired July 28, 2022. In this podcast Eckhart talks about our growing awareness and how it can be used in service of others. He says when presence is the foundation of our lives, we are more available emotionally. He explains why this is when the pitfalls of the ego no longer block us. Eckhart believes when we are confronted by the pain of others, if we have a clear channel connected to the source of consciousness, we will exercise empathy and compassion. In this state he says we will not be shaken when the winds of misfortune blow because we are rooted in the deepest part of our being. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
« Théologie négative », que se cache-t-il derrière cette formule ? Rassurez-vous, la Foi prise au mot ne se lance pas dans l'anti-théologie. Cela désigne au contraire une des plus importantes branches de la théologie chrétienne. Alors que nous sommes accoutumés à un discours qui nous dit qui est Dieu, cette autre voie affirme que l'on ne sait rien de Lui et qu'Il est « Néant » car au-delà de tout « Étant ». Pour approcher « autrement » Dieu, cette théologie propose d'utiliser un négatif, comme en photographie, pour en définir les contours. Le noir fait apparaître la lumière. En disant ce que n'est pas Dieu et en utilisant le langage poétique, on dépasse les obstacles du langage conceptuel. Oxymore, hyperbole tel que « Ténèbre lumineuse » exprime ainsi Dieu. Des origines chez Denys à Thérèse d'Avila, en passant par les mystiques rhénans tel Eckhart, immersion dans cette aventure mystique avec le Père Dominique Salin, jésuite et Professeur au Centre Sèvres et Marie-Anne Vannier, Professeur à l'Université de Metz qui a dirigé l'Encyclopédie des mystiques rhénans (Cerf). Emission du 06 mai 2012.
Originally aired July 21, 2022. In this episode Eckhart reflects on the power of the present moment. He then answers a question about the individual and collective pain bodies. He says we all have both and sometimes one is stronger than the other. He believes those with a strong pain body are often more likely to awaken than those who don't have one. He explains that either way, the great danger is falling into the trap of what he calls “victim identity.” Eckhart says we need to take responsibility for the accumulated suffering inside ourselves and learn to heal from it. Eckhart believes our suffering is transmuted into awareness and that is the beginning of awakening. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Originally aired June 30, 2022. In this episode, Eckhart addresses concerns about using conscious manifestation for both practical as well as spiritual purposes. Eckhart cautions listeners that awakening should not be something we put on our to-do list. He says it is not another goal that we attain. He believes when we define enlightenment in those terms it becomes an obstacle. Eckhart says awakening is not an achievement, it's a realization which really means it's already here.

He explains we may have a vision of what we'd like to create, but when we try to express ourselves the ego kicks up resistance. Eckhart says we feel attacked by inner voices such as, “Who do you think you are? You're not ready for this” and then we self-sabotage. He explains how we doubt our talent and give in to our fears. Eckhart says when this happens, we must recognize it as the voice of the ego and in those moments we should practice presence. He shares that we need to release our negative thinking, allowing the creative process to flow through. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Originally aired June 16, 2022. In this episode Eckhart leads a short meditation and then answers a question about our fear of suffering. Eckhart says suffering plays an important role in the evolution of our consciousness. He says without it, we would not grow in awareness. Eckhart believes, for many people, suffering is their primary spiritual teacher and much of our pain is self-created through dysfunctional thoughts and behaviors. He explains why the pain can also be a catalyst for spiritual growth. He says if we focus on the power of the present moment, our difficulties diminish and once we awaken we no longer need to suffer.

Eckhart Tolle shares what may be the most counterintuitive truth about human suffering: the pain you feel is almost never caused by your circumstances - it comes from the mental narrative you attach to them. So many people carry a heavy identity built from past wounds, failures, and stories they've been repeating for years, never realizing they are not the story. Eckhart walks through why the ego is so deeply ingrained that even enormous suffering isn't always enough to break its hold - and why the present moment is the only place where that grip can finally loosen. He breaks down the law of attraction with unusual clarity, showing why manifesting from neediness pushes what you want further away, and why true abundance starts with appreciating what already exists around you. By the end, you'll understand why the journey itself - not the destination - is where life actually happens, and how shifting your state of consciousness right now changes everything that comes next.

Learn a simple practice for experiencing the present moment without the weight of interpretation, so you can find peace even in frustrating situations.

Explore what it means to know yourself beyond your personal story, so you can access the deeper dimension of consciousness that is already whole and complete.
