Hey, Strange & Unexplained listeners!  We’re off this week for the Memorial Day holiday, but didn’t want to leave you with an empty feed, so we’re featuring an episode from another Obsessed Network show, “Crimes of the Centuries” Crime is so commonplace that it takes something particularly shocking and horrifying to be labelled the “crime of the century.” Even so, many of these crimes have been forgotten or lost to history. Until now.  Each week, award-winning report Amber Hunt takes a deep dive into one of these crimes, telling forgotten true crime tales that you may not have heard before. The episode we’re sharing today, “Chasing a Ghost,” tells the story of the murder of a small-town Pennsylvania police chief, which seemed like an open-and-shut case when it happened in December of 1980.  After all, whoever shot Gregory Adams appeared to have left a driver's license at the scene of the crime.  But investigators soon learned that the case would prove more challenging than expected, with a criminal who seemed to vanish into thin air for decades. We’ll be back with an all new S&U episode next week, so in the meantime, check out “Crimes of the Centuries” wherever you get your podcasts.

Before the days of Jack the Ripper, there was another Jack terrorizing the streets of Victorian London.

For some true crime cases, saturation of the headlines can lead to a rabid thirst for public details so vicious and all-consuming that it transforms an criminal investigation into media frenzy. Entangled in a winding web of misconstrued details, misinformed opinions, and mishandled investigations, the space between “The Truth” and “The Story” can grow wider and wider. In the nearly thirty years since the murder of JonBenet Ramsey speculation has swirled around a number of suspects, including her closest family members.

On a snowy morning in December 1996, John and Patsy Ramsey awoke to find their entire world turned upside down as their beloved six year-old daughter JonBenet lay dead in the basement of their Colorado home. A decades-long media frenzy has swirled around this murder of a child beauty queen. Over the years many fingers have been pointed, but little answers have been found, and the mystery of who killed JonBenet Ramsey haunts the tabloids to this day. There comes a time in every podcast’s life where it must cover the JonBenet Ramsey case, and for Strange and Unexplained that time is now. Come see Strange and Unexplained on Tour!

Can a region absorb the dark energy of its historical monstrosities? Can land become innately evil, soil cursed by the wounds of violence? In Massachusetts the Bridgewater Triangle seems to be a vortex of the paranormal, perhaps created by horrific bloodshed that occurred centuries ago. The history of bloody conflict has given way to ghosts, UFOs, a wide variety of cryptids, satanic activity, and of course, murder most foul. On this episode we trudge into the swamps of the Bridgewater Triangle, and hope to come out in one piece on the other side… Come see Strange and Unexplained on Tour!

Earlier this year, author Jaret Kobec named a new suspect to be the Zodiac Killer. This was based on years of research which uncovered never before seen evidence and answered many of the open questions in the case. Kobec's evidence for his suspect is so compelling that many true crime heavyweights have staked their reputations on their belief that Kobec has identified the Zodiac Killer once and for all. We at the Obsessed Network are proud to announce that we helped publish the audiobook version of Kobec's work. The audiobook is called How To Find Zodiac. The audiobook is voiced by the award winning narrator Scott Brick and is available right now for download from Audible. In How To Find Zodiac, Kobec names his suspect in the first 15 minutes and then spends the rest of the audiobook laying out his evidence. It will make you reexamine  everything you think you know about the case and leave you with little doubt that this decades-old mystery has finally been solved. 

Does a monstrous society breed monsters? Hate can twist, contort and mutate into something truly evil within an individual, propelling them to do unspeakable things. In the 1970s, a serial killer stalked the clubs and lounges of San Francisco, targeting gay men. His darkly artistic trademark request to draw his would-be victims led to his nickname, “The Doodler.” His victims lived quietly in fear of being targeted, silenced due to their greater fear of societal discrimination. Fifty years later, the case of The Doodler remains unsolved. Come see Strange and Unexplained on Tour!
