In today's episode we'll be discussing the most infamous poltergeist case known to Australia. This case is centered around the Bowen family, who in 1921, lived in a humble home in Guyra, New South Wales, Australia. When stones begin hitting their home from an unknown source, the community rallied around the family and served as witnesses to a weeks-long paranormal event that left everyone at a loss for words... or an explanation.

This is a unique case in that it was so well documented in newspaper coverage, that the entirety of our research comes from a single book which compiles the newspaper articles chronologically.

In the first episode of our show, we'll be kicking off with a serial killer who you might not have ever heard of: Cesar Barone. A man who was charged with and convicted of four murders but definitely had more victims. A creature that spent nearly all of his miserable life stalking and preying on vulnerable older women. He was such a dirtbag, we'd say he harmed every poor unfortunate soul he came across in one way or another. This is part one of a two part series on Barone. In this episode we'll discuss his early life, his escalation to murder and and his first unfortunate victims.
