Parental discretion is strongly advised.IN THIS EPISODE: As the crowds gathered for Henry's coronation in August of 1485, an unnamed sickness was already moving through the alleys, quiet and uninvited. Before the crown even touched his head, the dying had already begun. (The English Sweat) *** Long before the word “cryptid' was coined, people were already burying the victims of a thing in the woods that doesn't run, doesn't speak, and doesn't hesitate – it kills, and then it's gone. From the Rockies to the West African forests, the stories don't just describe sightings — they describe actual killings. (When Cryptid Creatures Turn Violent) *** Clinical death was once considered the end, but new data — and what the revived remember — suggest otherwise. Medical researchers studying patients who died and returned to life have documented consistent reports of consciousness surviving clinical death, with experiences that remarkably match biblical descriptions of the afterlife. (What Happens When We Die) *** Researchers studying ancient Middle Eastern texts about fire-based entities called Djinn now believe these beings might actually be plasma-based interdimensional creatures that have been masquerading as everything from UFOs to shadow people. (The Djinn and Aliens) *** Scientists have discovered that the cosmic objects we've been calling black holes might actually be tunnels to other parts of the universe, and we may have been watching doorways to distant worlds without realizing it. (Could Black Holes Be Hidden Doorways?) *** But first… medical examiners and coroners have witnessed some of the most unusual and shocking deaths imaginable, proving that truth can be far stranger than any horror story.

See the video version: https://weirddarkness.com/MurderNoir-MargaretsLastKissInspired by a true story; scroll down for the real-life case. | Millhaven, 1937. A woman lies barely clinging to life. A man with no past returns from the dead. A detective who thought he'd seen everything knows that most of his cases are puzzles. Some are warnings. This one feels like a curse. In this city, the church bells toll without reason, the dead won't rest, and something ancient hums just beneath the surface.THE TRUE CRIME CASE THIS STORY IS BASED ON: On Sunday, October 13, 1867, Ferdinand Hoffman fatally stabbed his ex-wife, Caroline Yost, inside the German Reformed Church in Canton, Ohio. The attack occurred after Hoffman, recently released from prison, followed Yost into the church and confronted her behind the belfry door. Witnesses reported hearing screams as Hoffman fled, leaving Yost with eighteen stab wounds. Yost, who had divorced Hoffman after years of reported abuse and his repeated arrests for crimes including counterfeiting and theft, survived for nearly a week before succumbing to her injuries. The tip of Hoffman's knife had broken off during the attack, lessening the severity of later wounds. Hoffman was captured shortly after the stabbing by a group of citizens who prevented a lynching. He was held in jail awaiting murder charges. Authorities reported that Hoffman expressed no remorse, stating he regretted not killing Yost outright. The morning after Yost's death, Hoffman was found dead in his cell, having hanged himself with a bedsheet. Officials left his body hanging for public viewing throughout the day.SOURCES…http://www.murderbygaslight.com/2022/06/murdered-in-church.htmlMusic provided by Alibi Music Library= = = = =(Over time links seen above may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

THE TRUE CRIME CASE THIS STORY IS BASED ON: In the rough and tumble world of 1890s New Jersey, William H. Dunham, owner of two notorious roadhouses, meets a violent end. Known for his ill temper and jealousy, Dunham's life of debauchery and crime catches up with him on the night of December 23, 1891. After a drunken brawl with his wife, "Diamond Kate," and their hostler, Patrick Phelan, Dunham is found shot dead in his own establishment. Despite numerous enemies and a tumultuous personal life, the investigation into Dunham's murder stalls. The discovery of a clean, unfired revolver at the scene and various suspects, including rivals and jilted lovers, complicate the case. Multiple arrests and interrogations yield no conclusive answers, and the once-prominent roadhouse owner's murder remains unsolved.SOURCES…http://www.murderbygaslight.com/2019/06/the-dunham-murder.htmlMusic provided by Alibi Music Library= = = = =(Over time links seen above may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

THE TRUE CRIME CASE THIS STORY IS BASED ON: On the evening of March 7, 1866, the body of an unknown man was discovered with a gunshot wound to the head at the corner of 100th Street and 2nd Avenue in New York City, a remote area at the time. The large amount of powder around the wound indicated a close-range shot. The man, around 30 years old and fashionably dressed, was found with $15 in his pocket, ruling out robbery as a motive. The crime scene featured an eight-foot embankment and a small stream, where the body lay amidst wagon tracks and men's footprints. A Colt Navy revolver was found at the scene, but it was fully loaded and unfired, discounting suicide. It was believed the man was killed elsewhere and his body dumped to avoid detection. Despite a coroner's inquest confirming murder and a $500 reward from the mayor for information, neither the man nor his killers were ever identified.SOURCES…http://www.murderbygaslight.com/2018/03/a-mysterious-murder.htmlMusic provided by Alibi Music Library. = = = = =(Over time links seen above may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

Hawkeye is dead! Or at least that's what the US Army thinks, meanwhile the man is alive and kicking. Being “dead” has some perks, like throwing a funeral party and not having to participate in Frank's yoga class. Unfortunately, the end of life celebration can't last for long because the Army has not only stopped Hawkeye's pay and mail, but relayed the misinformation to Hawkeye's poor dad!Notifying Families of Servicemembers' Deaths https://www.nbcnews.com/id/wbna3340619https://www.military.com/spouse/military-life/how-military-conducts-death-notification.html https://blogs.loc.gov/folklife/2015/02/beyond-i-regret-to-inform-you/#:~:text=During%20World%20War%20II%2C%20Korea,wounded%2C%20or%20killed%20in%20action.Richard Masur https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0557956/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Masurhttps://www.tcm.com/tcmdb/person/124552%7C0/Richard-Masur/https://performingartslegacy.org/masur/Glen and Les Charles https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glen_and_Les_Charleshttps://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1993-05-16-tv-35836-story.htmlMusic credit: “Feel Good Rock” by Jason Shaw, https://audionautix.com/ Cover Art by M.

This woman was 20 year old Elaine Wakefield and she had last been seen two days before. It would turn out that Elaine had walked up the racetrack and had been seen by multiple people but why?

Ambergris has an intoxicating smell. It has been a mystery for centuries. It been used as an aphrodesiac, in food, cocktails, incense and most widely in luxury perfumes. People thought it was volcanic rock from the ocean, dragon spit, some type of fruit, tree sap or some type of fungus. No one ever guess what it realy was, if they did they surely wouldnt have used it in food!Find uslinktr.ee/thecousinsweirdEmail usthecousinsweird@gmail.comSupport uspatreon.com/thcousinsweirdSources:https://www.nhm.ac.uk/discover/what-is-ambergris.htmlhttps://www.britannica.com/science/ambergrishttps://www.americanoceans.org/facts/ambergris/.https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg25233653-700-ambergris-what-fragrant-whale-excretions-tell-us-about-ancient-oceans/. https://allthatsinteresting.com/ambergrishttps://www.atlasobscura.com/foods/ambergris-whale-excrement-ice-creamhttps://www.whalefacts.org/whale-vomit-ambergrishttps://press.uchicago.edu/books/excerpt/2012/kemp_floating.htmlMusic from Upbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/danijel-zambo/friendly-ghostLicense code: LZ5ZUHQLWV7IN6XH

On the 25th of March 1993, 47 year old Jean Bradley headed back from her job on New Bond Street in London to Acton on the tube. Jean parked her BMW on Carberry Avenue and when she got back to her car she always drove back home to her home in Berkshire. That night she arrived back in Acton at around 7:20pm but when she got to her car she was attacked from behind by an unknown man. Her attack was witnessed by people in the street and a long mile and a half chase through the streets by a passerby ensued. Despite this Jean's murder is still unsolved today.Important information provided by:Contemporary articles: https://www.findmypast.co.uk/Crimewatch Reconstruction: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SaFZB_-Tbbghttps://www.mylondon.news/news/west-london-news/murder-successful-businesswoman-stabbed-8-24414130https://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-news/robert-napper-serial-killer-forgot-18603812https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2003/feb/16/ukcrime.foodanddrinkhttps://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/bunny-girl-killer-could-finally-be-brought-to-justice-after-35-years-8092160.htmlMusic by: dl-sounds.comFollow the Unseen Podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-unseen-podcast/id1318473466?uo=4Follow the Unseen Podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0xWK7Mu3bTP6oziZvxrwSK?si=QxvyPkZ2TdCDscnfxyeRawFollow the Unseen Podcast on Stitcher: https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/the-unseen-podcastJoin our Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/unseenpodFollow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/theunseenpodFollow us on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/theunseenpod/Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theunseenpod?fan_landing=trueSubscribe to 10 Minute True Crime: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/10-minute-true-crime/id1591474862

In the 80's we had, new wave, jelly bracelets, cabbage patch kids, neon clothes, and Satanic Panic! A mass panic spread across our country, people were being accused and arrested for things when there was no evidence! Law enforcement, social workers, parents were all trying to look for signs of devil worshiping. Then there were people who were took advantage of the situation and preyed on peoples fears making the situation dangerous!

The price we are willing to pay to meet beauty standards. This isn't anything new! Throughout history women have been doing everything including dying to make sure they meet these standards. The Renaissance period is no different. Pale, white, blemish free, translucent skin was what women were trying to achieve. To do so they were knowingly poisoning themselves.

Our guest today, Kevin Schaefer has done an incredible amount of research about fatherhood in particular, how fathers in Canada compare to fathers in the US and what policies encourage or discourage a father's involvement and availability in the home in each country. He's an associate professor in the department of sociology at Brigham Young University. He's had over 40 peer reviewed articles. That's how I got in touch with him is I read one of his articles about childhood trauma and just was absolutely touched by the stories there. He has a book coming out called, So Close, Yet So Far how Canadian and American fathers differ and why. In this episode he shares his research and what we can do to help influence policies to increase fatherhood engagement - in particular paid fatherly leave in America.
