Obscura: A True Crime Podcast

The darkest true crime cases are the ones you've never heard of. Obscura investigates murders written off as accidents, disappearances dismissed as runaways, and obscure cases buried in forgotten files. Host Justin Drown delivers unflinching investigations through real archival audio, court records, and graphic forensic detail. No comedy. No sanitized narratives. Only the complete truth. New episodes every Tuesday.

2025/01/01

Brian Cohee Jr. tells his family doctor that he’s experiencing headaches. He doesn’t tell the doctor about the lights that dance around his bedroom, just from the corner of his eyes. Or that sometimes, when his back is turned, bright light shines through his bedroom window. Impossible because, when he turns around, there is no car or man with shining flashlight.Join the Black Label at Patreon.com/obscuracrimepodcast for premium episodes and additional content.Our Sponsors:* Check out Chime:
