Between February and May 1946, three people were brutally attacked and five were murdered in Texarkana by a man dubbed the Phantom Killer. Texarkana straddles Texas and Arkansas and had a population of about 27,000 at the time of the murders. The murders have never been solved, though many believe to know who's responsible for the crimes. James “Jimmy” Hollis and Mary Jeanne Larey were attacked in February 1946 but luckily survived. Richard Griffin and Polly Ann Moore were not so lucky when they were killed just three weeks later in March. Paul Martin and Betty Jo Booker were the second double murder three weeks later in April. Virgil Starks was killed and his wife Katie was shot twice at the beginning of May 1946. Then the attacks ended as quickly as they began.

During this week's Segment 1, Comfy Horror Movie Review we're talking about the man who helped to write for the movie Sudden Impact - Charles Pierce - and his classic 1976 pseudo-docu-horror drama called The Town that Dreaded Sundown. Starring the legendary Ben Johnson, The Town that Dreaded Sundown is a first for the DFM pod - we're talking a real killer with real murders - the Texarkana Moonlight Murders took place in post WWII Texarkana Arkansas/Texas. The Phantom Killer may be the 2nd or 3rd most popular serial killer next to the Zodiac Killer and the Golden State killer. With a narration that gives us goosebumps, we can't help but wonder what the fate was of the suspect that was never caught.Speaking of that Hurdy Gurdy Man song by Donovan, in Segment 2, Horror, Etc we're talking the 2007 David Fichner Zodiac that spawned multiple Marvel-verse characters.

The tiny town of Texarkana, which straddles the state line separating Texas from Arkansas, was tormented by a string of violent attacks in the 1940s. A mysterious assailant dubbed 'The Phantom Slayer' preyed upon young couples parked on lovers' lanes, sending Texarkana into a tailspin. Residents gripped by mass hysteria bought out all the door locks, window shades, and ammunition in town. By summer of 1946 the Phantom had faded away, but left an indelible mark on Texarkana as one of the earliest unsolved serial killer cases in America.

Welcome back to Behind The Screams, I'm your host Aran and this week we are taking a closer look at the inspiration behind the movie - The Town That Dreaded Sundown - better known as Texarkana Moonlight Murders.The residents of Texarkana have been haunted by the events known as the Texarkana Moonlight Murders since 1946. That year, a masked murderer killed five people and seriously injured three others in a series of attacks that shook the town to its core. According to Texas Monthly, the presence of a serial killer (before the term was even coined) so spooked Texarkanans that they stocked up on guns and guard dogs, booby-trapped their homes, and even slept in hotels for safety after police failed for months to bring in the man the Texarkana Gazette christened the Phantom Killer.Credit - https://www.grunge.com/328814/the-famous-movie-inspired-by-the-texarkana-murder-mystery/For more content, follow here - https://linktr.ee/FirstClassHorror

It's an age-old story: A man and a woman pull onto a deserted road. They turn the car off and let the engine settle around them. The man leaves the radio on and leans in closer to the woman, so close he can feel her breath on his cheek. And then the music cuts out, a crackling radio broadcast fills the cab of the car.

Hi all you beautiful people! Tri-hosting is so fun! Miss, Kevin, and (new permanent host) Edie are so jazzed about this episode! First for the True Crime Story, Kevin takes us to Texarkana, TX/AR where the double-city was home to a rash of unsolved serial murders over a 10-week period in 1946. No suspects were ever charged. Very little was ever concluded. Such a sad, crazy story! Then for this week's Spoopy Story, Miss has us in Gary, Indiana in 2011. The house (and children?) of Latoya Ammons are possessed by not 1, not 2, but....200 demons? Miss gives us the details about how things were handled by the city and state officials and the archdiocese. (Spoiler alert...not good!) We're so excited to be back to our regularly scheduled programming with snazzy new branding! Woot woot! Source notes: www.creepyinqueeriespod.com. Instagram: @CreepyInQueeriesPod.
