Knives, Nightmares, and Nonsense: The Doodler & The...

Haunted and Homicidal ·

2025/11/03

This week on Haunted and Homicidal, your favorite chaotic duo dives headfirst into two horrifying tales that sound like they were made up during a fever dream but are, unfortunately, 100% real. First up: The Black Doodler — the mysterious San Francisco serial killer who sketched his victims before murdering them. Because apparently, murder wasn’t enough — he had to add an arts-and-crafts twist. Lauren immediately questions whether he used a sketchpad or napkins from a diner, Courtney’s convinced

2025/10/30

This week’s special Halloween episode is brought to you by pure mischief, caffeine, and the unrelenting crunch of Mischa’s ASMR debut (yes, she starts the show AND demands booty scratches throughout — union rules or something).Lauren and Courtney dive headfirst — and possibly headless — into The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, where they bravely mispronounce approximately 73% of the words (because let’s be honest, we can barely pronounce the ones we do know). Somewhere between “Ichabod Crane” and “is it

The Trick-or-Treat Murder & The Candy-Coated Chaos

Haunted and Homicidal ·

2025/10/27

It’s Halloween week, ghouls — and this episode is running purely on chaos, caffeine, and the haunting realization that no amount of energy drinks can fix a 6 a.m. photoshoot. Lauren and Courtney are barely functioning humans, Mischa is unhinged (and physically assaults Courtney mid-recording in her desperate quest for butt scratches), and we’re diving headfirst into two of the most Halloween-core cases ever: Ronald Clark O’Bryan, a.k.a. The Candy Man Killer, and Peter Fabiano, the poor soul taken

From Hysterical Women to Howling Skin Walkers

Haunted and Homicidal ·

2025/10/23

This week, we take a delightfully unhinged trip to the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum — where the admission criteria seem to have been written by Gaston LeGume himself. Because honestly, who needs a woman that reads books? Next thing you know, she’s thinking… and we can’t have that, now can we? Insert aggressive 1800s misogyny and fainting couch noises here.But wait — it gets spookier. We’re diving deep into the Navajo legend of the Skin Walkers, not the watered-down, white-washed “Western movie

The Green River Killer: Part 2 — How the Hell Was He...

Haunted and Homicidal ·

2025/10/20

Trigger Warning:This episode contains an Olympic-level amount of “fucks.” They fly freely, passionately, and with purpose. If you’re keeping a tally, good luck—Courtney lost count 20 minutes in, and Lauren gave up somewhere around the 37th “fuck” when the rage hit full tilt. In the shocking conclusion of our two-part Green River Killer deep dive, we pick up where we left off—continuing through the final list of Gary Ridgway’s 49 confirmed victims. As we read their names and stories, we’re

Pennhurst, Pizza, and the Goat-Sucker Supreme

Haunted and Homicidal ·

2025/10/16

This week your favorite spooky duo went full Pennhurst Sanitorium mode — yes, the one crawling with ghosts, creaks, and vibes so cursed that even our microphones tried to quit halfway through. Then we slide (chaotically, like we always do) straight into the desert hunting for the Chupacabra, aka the cryptid that looks like it got designed by a bored middle-schooler during detention and somehow got its own Netflix doc treatment.But don’t worry, we keep it classy — because while we’re talking about

Haunted and Homicidal ·

2025/10/13

Trigger Warning: This episode contains a disturbing amount of “fucks.” Like, genuinely—so many that even Gary Ridgway might’ve blushed (and that’s saying something). Proceed with snacks, caffeine, and perhaps a sage bundle. Episode Description: In Part One of our deep dive into one of America’s most prolific serial killers, we unravel the twisted origins of Gary Leon Ridgway—the man who smiled through sermons, cried during Bible readings, and somehow thought murder was part of his life plan.

Haunted and Homicidal ·

2025/10/09

Grab your sage bundles and your emotional-support breadsticks, because this week, chaos takes a colonial turn! 🏚️Lauren and Courtney dive headfirst into The House of the Seven Gables — that haunted slice of Salem history dripping with Gothic guilt, family curses, and some good ol’ witch trial trauma. We unpack the dark history of the Turner family, the lingering energy of wrongful accusations, and how Nathaniel Hawthorne basically said, “Let’s trauma dump… but make it literary.” Then things get

Walter, Walker, Whatever: Murder & Mayhem

Haunted and Homicidal ·

2025/10/06

This week we’re diving headfirst into some truly sinister history: 🔪 First up is Serial Killer Gary Alan Walker—a man who made small-town horror a living reality. The details are grisly, the psychology is twisted, and yes…we dragged y’all into the deep end with us. (Also, Lauren keeps calling him Walter because apparently reading is hard, and we’re just rolling with it at this point.) ☠️ Then we jump to the story of Mary Creighton, whose preferred hobby wasn’t knitting or gardening…it was poison

Ghosts, Ghouls, and What-the-Hellery

Haunted and Homicidal ·

2025/10/02

Pack your sage, prepare your best “WTF” face (Lauren’s already making hers), and settle in because this week’s stories are a ride:Waverly Sanitorium – Kentucky’s creepiest TB hospital, where patients “relaxed” in lung chairs (Courtney can't spell, but what else is new?). Picture rows of bundled patients breathing in “fresh air,” while the halls filled with shadow people, disembodied voices, and Timmy the eternal ball-playing ghost. Add in the infamous death tunnel (aka paranormal Slip ’N Slide)

Explosions, Holy Murder, and Zero Chill

Haunted and Homicidal ·

2025/09/29

Strap in, because this week we’re dragging you through the shadowy rabbit holes of Ted Kaczynski, the Unabomber—the hermit-genius who waged war on modern society with handcrafted bombs—and Thomas Piper, Boston’s “Holy Horror” sexton whose pious exterior hid a murderous streak. As we peel back layers of paranoia, violence, and hypocrisy, Lauren confesses her absolute terror of tunnels (she literally goes blue holding her breath until daylight reappears), while Mischa delivers her unhinged hot takes

Winchester Walls, Mermaid Calls & Roo Roo...

Haunted and Homicidal ·

2025/09/25

We ease in with Mischa’s ASMR whispers, because nothing sets the mood like a soothing voice before the inevitable Roo Roo chaos kicks down the door. First up: the Winchester Mystery House—the mansion of endless staircases, doors to nowhere, and vibes that scream, “you’re probably lost forever.” We unpack the legend, the ghosts and debate whether or not it should be "groaning in pain" or "moaning in pain"... Lauren is on #teamgroan. Courtney doesn't care. Next: Mermaids. Not the singing, bubbly

Please take care of yourselves before deciding to listen. This week, we dive headfirst into the dark, gut-wrenching cases of two absolute monsters: Stephen Richards, one of the earliest recorded serial killers in American history, and the disgusting, irredeemable, complete piece of shit Joseph Duncan, whose

Haunted and Homicidal ·

2025/09/18

This week we’re diving headfirst into double the creepy, double the chaos. First up: the infamous Boise Murder House—a place where the wallpaper probably peels itself off in protest and the ghosts are definitely rolling their eyes at us for laughing too hard. Then we wander (ill-advisedly) into the woods to talk about the Woods Devil, a cryptid that’s basically Bigfoot’s awkward, skinnier, tree-hugging cousin. And speaking of Bigfoot, we couldn’t resist pulling in that classic Mitch Hedberg

Unsolved Mysteries, Slay Queens, and Snack-Sized Dogs

Haunted and Homicidal ·

2025/09/15

🚨 This week, your favorite chaotic duo dives into the mystery and mayhem buffet 🍽️👻 First up: the unsolved disappearance of Maura Murray (spoiler alert: the mafia is definitely not involved, no matter how many conspiracy rabbit holes we fall down). Then we turn the spotlight on the absolute legend that is Helen Spence—who, in our humble but loud opinion, slayed justifiably. 💅🔪 Of course, things immediately spiral into nonsense tangents: Lauren confesses that socks and closed-toe shoes are

Haunted and Homicidal ·

2025/09/11

🎙️ This week we’re serving up equal parts cursed real estate, haunted dolls, and… manicotti. First stop: the Demon House in Indiana—a place so terrifying it makes you reconsider every time you casually say “yeah sure, let’s go check out that abandoned house.” (Spoiler: don’t.) Then we pack our bags for Key West to chat about Robert the Doll, the little man with the big bad vibes. Remember, you MUST mind your manners with Robert. Say “please.” Say “thank you.” Compliment his outfit. Do not clown

We’re back with Part 2 of the Pazuzu Algarad deep dive, and things somehow get even wilder. This episode covers the unraveling of Pazuzu’s reign of chaos—his arrest, the disturbing aftermath, and what justice finally looked like. We also talk about the oddly festive vibe surrounding the demolition of his infamous house, complete with neighborhood picnics like it was a block party from hell. And because it wouldn’t be Haunted and Homicidal without a little unhinged honesty, Lauren confesses her

Haunted and Homicidal ·

2025/09/04

We’re still emotionally limping after dealing with dickbag extraordinaire Pazuzu Algarad (seriously, therapy bills incoming), but guess what? The chaos train does not stop. Next stop: The Conjuring House, where Ed and Lorraine Warren are—once again—out here doing the absolute MOST. Spoiler: their “help” might actually be the reason demons keep showing up like they’re clocking in for overtime. Speaking of demons, apparently they love smacking humans around like rag dolls even in their dreams. That’s

Pazuzu, a case of ideas, and Klaus Mikaelson??

Haunted and Homicidal ·

2025/09/01

In this chaotic cocktail of true crime and tangents, Lauren and Courtney dive headfirst into the disturbing world of Pazuzu Algarad—the self-proclaimed Satanist whose house of horrors left North Carolina (and the internet) speechless. We break down his gruesome crimes, bizarre lifestyle, and the chilling details of his twisted following. But because we can't help ourselves, we also somehow spiral into a conversation about the superior hybrid vibes of Klaus Mikaelson (yes, we’re still not over The

Haunted and Homicidal ·

2025/08/28

Grab your sage, your salt, and maybe a bottle of DayQuil, because this week is feral. We’re spelunking straight into the Bell Witch Cave—where whispering spirits, poltergeist-level drama, and a ghost with main character energy decided to make Tennessee its stage. Then we’re taking a pit stop in Enfield, Illinois, where some poor guy ran into a creature that can only be described as “cryptid-meets-mutant-gremlin-on-bath-salts.” Yes, the Enfield Horror is as unhinged as it sounds. Meanwhile, we’re
