It's the spookiest time of the year and the ladies have two terrifying tales that aren't even close to being as horrifying as our present day circumstances. Kelley tells the story of Velma Barfield, who had a nasty habit of doing an arsenic. Then, Emily tells the legend of Okiku, a dishwasher who took her job so seriously, that it brought her back from the grave (that and a super traumatic death) along with Okiku the haunted doll who lives a better life than most people.

Velma stakk hånden gjennom sprinklene på sin egen celle og mot den neste slik at Beth kunne holde hender med henne. Beth tok Velma i sin fortrolighet, og helte ut fryktene sine, mens Velma ba høyt for henne og prøvde å trøste. For første gang i livet sitt ble Velma kjent ved fornavnet sitt, og Beth var den første fangen som kalte henne mamma Margie. Hun skulle ikke bli den siste. Andre innsatte kom ofte til Velma for råd og ord om trygghet. Brevskriving for seg selv og andre tok opp mye av Velmas tid. Hun skrev til familien sin og til støttespillere hun aldri hadde møtt. Hun holdt også opp med heklingen sin. Velma ba og leste Bibelen daglig. Sønnen og datteren hennes besøkte og tok noen ganger med barnebarna hennes. Sammen med en pastor jobbet hun med memoarene sine, boken Kvinne på dødscelle.

Vi har ingen bevis for at Velmas far voldtok henne, bortsett fra hennes eget vitnesbyrd, og flere av Velmas søsken bestred heftig hennes påstand om at hun var et incestoffer. Selv om familien hadde mange trekk typiske for incestuøse familier, som en alvorlig maktubalanse mellom mann og kone og en far som drakk mye, er det ikke mulig å si med sikkerhet om anklagen hennes var sann eller usann. Velma kunne absolutt lyve og var en mestermanipulator gjennom store deler av livet sitt. En påstand om seksuelle overgrep kan være en enkel måte å spille på folks sympati.Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theserialkillerpodcastWebsite: https://www.theserialkillerpodcast.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/theskpodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/serialkillerpodX: https://twitter.com/serialkillerpod Hosted on Acast.

On November 2, 1984, fifty-two-year-old Velma Barfield was executed by lethal injection at North Carolina's Central Prison, bringing an end to years of legal appeals and emotional debates over the death penalty and how, when, and to whom it gets applied. For six years, Barfield had sat on death row following her conviction for the poisoning murder of her boyfriend Stewart Taylor in 1976; however, during her trial she confessed to killing at least four other people.Velma Barfield's trial came at a time in the United States when Americans were just beginning to grapple with the concept of a serial killer, and the idea that a woman could commit such heinous acts seemed entirely inconceivable. Although woman had been sentenced to death for murder before in the US, none had confessed to methodically killing multiple people in such a callous way and for such a trivial reason. The debate only became more complicated following her death sentence, an already complicated subject among Americans that became exponentially so in 1984, when Barfield's case and personal story became a major talking point for politicians running for office around the state.Thank you to the Incredible Dave White of Bring Me the Axe Podcast for Research!ReferencesAssociated Press. 1984.

We are halfway there!​The revival was just getting started when 56-year-old farmer Rowland Stuart Taylor felt a wave of nausea and abdominal discomfort. Thinking it was just something he ate, Stuart fidgeted but wanted to stay for the revival. As the service went on, he began to feel worse and worse. He also didn't want to disappoint his girlfriend, 45-year-old Velma Barfield, by leaving, so he decided to go out to the truck to lie down for a while. When the revival ended, Velma returned to the truck and drove them home. She had to stop the vehicle at least once for Stuart to throw up on the side of the road. Assuming he had one of the many strains of influenza, Stuart asked a friend to care for his pigs “just until I get over this flu.” Stuart never got over the flu. He died two days later.Stuart had not died of natural causes. He'd been murdered by his sweet, unassuming girlfriend, Velma Barfield.Join Cam and Jen as they discuss "Bye Bye Velma: Death Row Granny".Thank you to our team:Written and researched by Lauretta AllenListener Discretion by Edward October from OctoberpodVHS https://www.youtube.com/c/octoberpodhomevideoExecutive Producer Nico Vitesse of https://theinkypawprint.comSources:https://www.amazon.com/Death-Sentence-Barfields-Crimes-Punishment-ebook/dp/B07W1PVKHXhttps://www.youtube.com/watchv=qDS_Pijlzx0&ab_channel=TheCrimeReelhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXHn2dqhLzM&ab_channel=FilmRiseTrueCrimehttps://www.youtube.com/watchv=ofdGA8yudqU&ab_channel=DeathRowExecutionshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velma_Barfieldhttps://exhibits.lib.unc.edu/exhibits/show/capital-punishment/biographies/barfieldhttps://murderpedia.org/female.B/b/barfield-velma.htm (your one-stop info dump on Velma)https://www.newspapers.com/image/401327868/?terms=Velma%20Barfield&match=1https://www.newspapers.com/image/494467203/https://www.newspapers.com/image/569891081/?terms=Velma%20Barfield&match=1https://www.newspapers.com/image/705107544/?terms=Velma%20Barfield&match=1https://www.newspapers.com/image/624508368/?terms=Velma%20Barfield&match=1https://www.newspapers.com/image/974782410/?terms=Velma%20Barfield&match=1https://www.newspapers.com/image/336246618/?terms=Velma%20Barfield&match=1https://www.newspapers.com/image/654819433/?terms=Velma%20Barfield&match=1https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/6786695/velma-barfieldhttps://exhibits.lib.unc.edu/exhibits/show/capital-punishment/biographies/barfield?fbclid=IwAR0YVx6zQ3G2es76SAetRKpOKosoo8AInhv7hKJutaUEGdZ6jHltvJasj0UThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3647242/advertisement

You've read the book "All My Friends are Dead" by Avery Monsen and Jory John, focusing on a little dinosaur that has lost all his loved ones. Well, for Velma Barfield, that book is reality. Velma Barfield grew up in rural North Carolina. When she was 17, she got married and had a happy life with her husband and two kids. But when both herself and her husband ended up with chronic pain that they self medicated through either drugs or alcohol, Velma's life was shrouded in Death. By the time Velma was 46 years old, she had lost one husband to a house fire, another husband to heart failure, a boyfriend to a car crash, her father to lung cancer, her mother to the stomach virus, and her fiancé to the flu. On top of that, Velma worked as a nurse to the elderly, and she lost three patients that she cared for. But it was soon revealed that Velma might not be as innocent as she seemed. Listen to this week's episode as Zoey shares the full details of how Velma turned from sympathetic nurse to being a prisoner on death row.But first, robin tells us about Arizona's Red Ghost for her something spooky.Sources: https://hauntedhospitality.wordpress.com/2022/12/20/ep-90-death-follows-velma-barfield/Visit us on Social Media!
