DRUNK ABOUT SOMETHING AMITYVILLE RECAP

Drink about something ·

2025/10/22

A brutal family murder, a discounted dream home, and a legend that swallowed a neighborhood—Amityville is as much a story about us as it is about a house. We walk through the facts of the DeFeo killings, then slow down to examine how a decade of grief turned into a global ghost franchise. The details that matter—addiction, violence, a rushed confession, and shifting insanity claims—sit next to the details that sell: cold rooms that no fire could fix, swarms of flies, a red‑eyed “friend” named...

2025/10/17

The most infamous Dutch Colonial in America didn’t start as a horror franchise—it began with six bodies found face down in their beds. We pull back the curtain on 112 Ocean Avenue to separate what’s on the record from what was engineered for the spotlight. We walk through the 1974 DeFeo murders, Butch’s shifting stories, the courtroom battle over insanity and “demonic influence,” and the sober verdict that anchored the case. Then we follow the paper trail a year later, when George and Kathy L...

OUR EAST COAST TRIP RECAP

Drink about something ·

2025/10/16

The map said nine days; our hearts turned it into a highlight reel. We roll out at dusk, chase the Exorcist Steps before sunrise, get humbled by DC parking, and reset our nerves at Ford’s Theatre. A tunnel panic in Baltimore tries to hijack the ride, but we breathe through it and learn a trick we’ll use all week: pair fear with a bigger view. Philly greets us with a concierge win, a middling cheesesteak, and the Rocky Steps that feel exactly like you hope they will. At Black Tom Island we fra...

DRUNK ABOUT SOMETHING LIZZIE BORDEN RECAP

Drink about something ·

2025/10/15

A leather mask, a clink of cans, and a key turning in a famous front door—our night at the Lizzie Borden house started playful and got serious fast. We walk you room by room through Fall River’s most talked‑about address, balancing the eerie staging with the ordinary rhythm of a B&B: check‑in chatter, locals with big hearts, and a neighbor who opens the shop just to tell stories. The trip becomes a prism for the case itself, where small details—window washing, a handkerchief, a door latch...

EPISODE 51: Inside Lizzie Borden’s House

Drink about something ·

2025/10/10

We’re sitting in Lizzie Borden’s bedroom, mics in hand, feet on century-old floors that creak like a metronome for the past. That intimacy changes everything. The famous rhyme fades once you see the sightlines, test the doors, and realize how a body could hide behind a bedframe and a myth could hide inside a tidy narrative. We trace the real timeline: Abby’s silent fall upstairs, Andrew’s final nap on the sofa, a maid sick from bad stew, a family doctor with morphine, and a police force lite...

DRUNK ABOUT SOMETHING ED GEIN RECAP

Drink about something ·

2025/10/08

The seltzers crack open, the laundry hums, and we dive straight into the story that haunts American horror: Ed Gein. Coming off a nine-day run through New England and a somber detour to Gettysburg, we trace the path from a Plainfield farmhouse to the birth of a cultural myth, focusing on the small, brutal truths that too many summaries skip. We talk about Augusta’s iron grip, the isolation that starved Ed of normal life, and the suspicion around Henry’s death that left him even more alone. Th...

EPIDODE 50: Ed Gein's house of horror

2025/09/26

Ever wondered where Hollywood's most iconic villains came from? In our landmark 50th episode, we pull back the curtain on Edward Theodore Gein—the Wisconsin recluse whose nightmarish crimes spawned Norman Bates, Leatherface, Buffalo Bill, and countless other fictional monsters. Born in 1906 to an alcoholic father and fanatically religious mother, Ed Gein's childhood was defined by isolation and psychological abuse. His mother Augusta, who taught him that all women were "harlots," kept her so...

EPISODE 49: David Parker Ray's toy box part 2

2025/09/19

The twisted saga of David Parker Ray, known as the Toy Box Killer, represents one of the most disturbing chapters in American true crime history. From the shores of Elephant Butte Lake in New Mexico, Ray orchestrated a reign of terror that spanned decades, leaving an unknowable number of victims in his wake. Perhaps most disturbing was Ray's methodical approach. He recorded an "orientation" tape for victims, detailing the horrors they would endure. He drugged women so thoroughly they would ...

Set in the tight-knit community of Bill City, Michigan, this harrowing story begins when 13-year-old Lauren and her boyfriend Owen start getting increasingly hostile, sexually explicit, and psychologically damaging messages from a mysterious sender. What starts as insinuations about infidelity quickly escalates into a full-blown psychological assault, with the unknown caller telling Lauren she's worthless, flat-chested, and should kill herself—sometimes sending dozens of messages per day.

When neighbors described David Parker Ray as a friendly, helpful mechanic, they had no idea about the soundproof trailer parked on his property—a meticulously designed torture chamber he called his "toy box." From the moment his father began supplying him with sadomasochistic pornography as a child, Ray's path toward becoming one of America's most terrifying predators was set in motion. His mechanical aptitude, which earned him respect in various jobs across the Southwest, would ultimately s...

Dive into the darkest corners of American history as we unpack the chilling tale of Belle Gunness, one of the nation's first and most prolific female serial killers. Over drinks and unfiltered conversation, we trace the bloody path of this Norwegian immigrant who transformed from farm girl to calculated murderer in early 1900s Indiana.

Imagine a seemingly ordinary Norwegian immigrant woman running a pig farm in early 1900s Indiana—except her farm yielded far more than just pork. Belle Gunness, perhaps America's most prolific female serial killer, orchestrated a reign of terror that claimed at least 30 victims and revolutionized how we think about murder and gender. The horrific discovery came after a suspicious fire in 1908 revealed not only the bodies of Belle's three children but also prompted a search that unearthed dis...

What transforms a quiet, shy mechanic into someone unrecognizable? Our deep dive into the Chris Watts case begins long before the headlines that shocked the nation. Born in North Carolina, Chris Watts was the quintessential introvert—mechanically gifted but socially reserved.
