From the chilling 1874 case that coined 'don't take candy from strangers' to Patty Hearst's transformation from heiress to bank robber, journey through true tales of kidnapping where victims outsmarted their captors, others never escaped, and some didn't want to. These are the abduction stories you've never heard—told by the survivors themselves and featuring cases of Stockholm Syndrome that challenge everything we think we know about survival.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE for the ad-free version: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIN THIS EPISODE: “Don't take candy from strangers” - that warning stemmed from a real kidnapping in 1874, made even more history-making by being the first kidnapping in U.S. history to demand money for the child's safe return. (The First U.S. Kidnapping For Ransom) *** I'll share true kidnapping stories told by the victims – stories you've never heard, because none of them made the evening news. (True Stories of Abduction) *** In some kidnapping cases, the victim outsmarts their abductor. We'll look at a few quick-thinking abductees whose out-of-the-box thinking and determination to survive helped them to escape their captors. (They Outsmarted Their Kidnappers) *** In some cases of kidnapping, the victims have an opportunity to escape – but don't. They even try to help those who abducted them in the first place. In many cases this indicates the victim is suffering from a terrifying type of brainwashing we've come to know as Stockholm Syndrome – and we'll look at a few famous cases of it. (True Cases of Stockholm Syndrome) *** A beautiful California co-ed was kidnapped in 1974 - and two months later, she burst into a bank with a machine gun. We'll look at how Stockholm Syndrome changed 19-year-old wealthy heiress Patty Hearst into a cold-blooded bank robber.

April 3, 2004. La Cygne, Kansas. 23-year old Alonzo Brooks vanishes while attending a party at a farmhouse and his body is discovered on the banks of a nearby creek nearly one month later. While a forensic pathologist is unable to determine Alonzo's exact cause of death, rumours start circulating that he was the victim of a hate crime before his body was placed at that location. In 2021, after Alonzo's body is exhumed and given a new autopsy, it is announced that his death has officially been reclassified as a homicide. Who was responsible for killing Alonzo Brooks and what was the motive for his murder? If his death wasn't a hate crime, what did actually happen to him?

On November 18th, when a congressman's investigation threatened to expose the truth, Jones ordered his followers to feed cyanide-laced punch to over 300 children first—then recorded audio as 900 people died in the largest loss of American civilian life before 9/11.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE for the ad-free version: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIN THIS EPISODE: We'll look not only at the horrible events of the Jonestown massacre itself, but what life was like for those in The Peoples Temple cult before the mass suicide took place.

When a mysterious stranger appeared from nowhere to push her car out of danger, she turned to thank him—but he had vanished into thin air. From near-death experiences to deathbed visions, these are the true stories of people who believe they've encountered their guardian angels in moments when they needed them most.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE for the ad-free version: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIN THIS EPISODE: If you ever missed death by an inch, and you believe you had a little help, you may be one of many people with guardian angel stories. Even for nonbelievers, a brush with real guardian angels is an encounter with the uncanny, proof of entities in the world beyond your line of sight. That's why real guardian angel stories, such as the ones I will share in this episode, are so creepy; even if it ends as a positive experience, it leaves you with a lot of lingering questions. Most people believe real guardian angels protect people from harm, but that doesn't make them less unnerving. After all, if angels truly are real, then so are the demonic forces they seek to protect people from.SOURCES AND RESOURCES FROM THE EPISODE…“Do I Have a Guardian Angel?” (Church of the Undead): https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/doihaveaguardianangelhttps://www.ranker.com/list/reddit-true-stories-of-guardian-angels/melissa-brinkshttps://askanangel.org/angel-stories/https://www.beliefnet.com/inspiration/angels/galleries/5-true-stories-of-heavenly-visitors.aspxhttps://www.liveabout.com/angel-encounters-true-stories-2593644https://www.liveabout.com/do-you-have-a-guardian-angel-2593567https://www.learnreligions.com/deathbed-visions-of-angels-123844=====(Over time links may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

From medieval monasteries to modern suburban bedrooms, people describe encounters with entities that seduce, terrorize, and feed upon their victims in ways that blur the line between nightmare and reality. These accounts span every culture and continent, from ancient Mesopotamian texts about the demon Lilith to contemporary Reddit posts about beings that attach themselves like parasites to human souls. Tonight's journey explores the disturbing consistency of these testimonies across millennia, and asks why so many unconnected people describe experiencing the exact same phenomena - entities that wait until we're at our most vulnerable, when sleep and waking merge, to make their presence terrifyingly known.CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Lead-In00:02:34.344 = Show Open00:05:34.552 = The Sleep Paralysis Connection00:20:18.980 = Modern Encounters, Ancient Methods00:43:26.557 = Breaking The Ancestral Chain00:53:48.871 = Show CloseSOURCES AND RESOURCES FROM THE EPISODE…“Sex and the Single Succubus”: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/sexandthesinglesuccubus“Temptation To Terror, Seduction To Screams”: https://weirddarkness.com/incubus-succubus/Church of the Undead episode about sleep paralysis: https://weirddarkness.com/cotu-sleepparalysis/BOOK: “Sleep Paralysis: Historical, Psychological and Medical Perspectives” by Brian Sharpless: https://amzn.to/46HXtTI=====(Over time links may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

Carved into Iranian stone thousands of years ago, a 14-centimeter figure depicts something that shouldn't exist: a creature with the anatomically precise head and grasping arms of a praying mantis merged with the squatting legs of a human. The ancient petroglyph's disturbing accuracy—matching specific details of local Empusa mantids that modern entomologists needed careful study to identify—raises unsettling questions about what prehistoric artists witnessed in the remote Teymareh region.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE for the ad-free version: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIN THIS EPISODE: A 17-foot Boston Whaler disappeared with five Hawaiian fishermen in 1979.

Kayla Berg, a 15-year-old from Antigo, Wisconsin, was dropped off in Wausau by her friend Kevin Kielcheski close to midnight on August 11, 2009. She never returned home and has never been seen again. Kevin claimed he dropped Kayla at her boyfriend Miguel Marrero's house. However, Miguel had not been living at that residence for some time—and Kayla knew this. So why would Kayla ask Kevin to leave her 35 miles from home, in the middle of the night, with no way back?Contact us at: weeknightmysteries@gmail.comInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/weeknightmysteriesTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@weeknightmysteries

For thirteen years, the Smurl family reported being terrorized by invisible forces in their Pennsylvania duplex - entities that threw their German Shepherd against walls, sexually assaulted both Jack and Janet, and somehow knew to hide whenever priests came to investigate. The Catholic Church sent multiple clergy who witnessed nothing, the Warrens recorded hours of supposed evidence, and neighbors threw bricks at the house during the media circus, but no one could definitively prove whether the Smurls were victims of a genuine haunting or something else entirely.

When a mother heard her own voice from five hours earlier coming through her baby monitor, she realized she was witnessing something that shouldn't be possible—a tear in time itself. What would you do if you walked into a movie theater and suddenly jumped three hours forward, or if your car transported 20 miles in an instant to escape a traffic stop? A Victorian man appears in 1950s Times Square, two women slip back to Marie Antoinette's era, and a father and son lose an entire day in five minutes. These people swear they've experienced time slips, dimensional rifts, and impossible jumps through time—and their stories might make you question reality itself.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE for the ad-free version: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIN THIS EPISODE: Time travel, time slips, lost time, traveling to other dimensions and realities.

A guest at an Italian villa discovers luminous, crab-clawed caterpillars swarming an unoccupied bedroom where someone died of cancer a year before, and watches helplessly as the creatures crawl toward his fellow lodger's room in a prophetic nightmare that becomes horrifyingly real.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE for the ad-free version: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveySOURCES AND RESOURCES FROM THE EPISODE…“Caterpillars” by E.F.

A country music nightclub in Kentucky held dark secrets beneath its dance floor --- secrets that began with a brutal decapitation in 1896 and continued to manifest in violent supernatural encounters until the building's demolition in December 2024… but are the ghosts really gone?Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE for the ad-free version: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIN THIS EPISODE: The building that stood at 44 Licking Pike in Wilder, Kentucky, witnessed more death and violence than most structures see in several lifetimes. From its origins as a slaughterhouse where animal blood drained into a deep well, through decades of mob violence and mysterious deaths, to its final incarnation as Bobby Mackey's Music World --- a honky-tonk where patrons reported being scratched, pushed, and attacked by unseen forces --- this location seemed to attract darkness like a magnet draws iron filings. The building's 45-and-a-half-year run as Bobby Mackey's came to an end on December 6, 2024, when demolition crews reduced the over-100-year-old structure to rubble. But that doesn't necessarily mean the hauntings themselves have ended.CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Lead-In00:02:30.463 = Show Open00:03:38.578 = The Headless Woman and Bloody Beginnings00:17:03.072 = The Verdict, The Vow And a Gallows' Curse00:41:20.658 = Exorcism, Evidence, And The Final Haunting00:53:56.668 = Show Close SOURCES AND RESOURCES FROM THE EPISODE…https://weirddarkness.com/bobby-mackeys-pearl-bryan/=====(Over time links may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.
