Hello hello hello, Nate did have plans for a paranormal episode but as we've found with paranormal stories they tend to be hard to find good ones. Lots of great stories but most are brief incidents and little to no legend of backstory, when we do find more we like to cover them. So sticking to the scary story idea he revisits r\NoSleep, and as you all know we love NoSleep and tend to read through them in our free time and bring some of the ones we find interesting here.

A few episodes back we talked about the unsolved case of Jeannette DePalma who is thought to have possibly been a victim of the man we cover today, Richard Cottingham aka The Torso Killer aka The Times Square Ripper.

We have a couple horrible cases this week, brought to you by Nate. The first case, most of you have probably heard of, is horrendous these usually tend to be my realm but now Nate has brought us one. There is a pretty in depth docu on this case you can find on streaming services and I would recommend it if you won't to learn more of this poor child's ordeal. The second case involves a family with thirteen children and is awful as well, but we end on a more positive note with this one.

We love NoSleep so we're venturing back to some stories from there today, partly because our personal schedules have been so busy as of late, as well as working on our finale episode little by little and getting things in place for our new cast. We hope you enjoy these stories and we'll be back with a new episode as soon as we can.

So the show is all Nate on this one. We start in St. Petersburgh Florida with a case of a murder suicide pact that doesn't go as planned, this case only happened last month, Feb 2025, not even a month yet. After this case Nate moves on to two cases that confused him when he was looking into them and confused me as well as he tells the story, the confusion sets in with both suspects having the same name, Nathan Brooks, so two kids, the same name, one case in 1995 in Ohio dubbed The Dark Prince of Bellaire, the other in 2013 in Washington, having the same name it makes it confusing when you find articles and don't note the date since the two kids both tried and one succeeded with murdering their parents.

This week we do our usual catching up with some of Nates academy stories and then he brings us this interesting story. A girl with seemingly everything, a second girl, the victim, with perfect grades and possibly a bright future. One party, one incident that changes everyone's lives around them.

Back to a little true crime, this was an odd case since there isn't much info and it stills remains unsolved today. There were plenty of rumors but not much evidence to work with, then the disappearing and reappearing case files. This case is possibly tied to a serial killer but after nearly 50 years it's still unsolved.

Due to job schedules and holidays we haven't been able to get together to record, and if your a listener you tend to know what that means. We ramble on and talk way too much to get to a story, so... that's what happened.
