Horror Story: True Paranormal Mysteries and Hauntings

In this episode, we examine the disappearance of six-year-old Noel Rodriguez-Alvarez, a medically fragile child who was last seen months before authorities were alerted. What started as a routine welfare check turned into a disturbing investigation involving deception, alleged abuse, and a mother who fled the country just days after being questioned.
But this story doesn’t end with a manhunt. As investigators uncovered the beliefs that the mother had, attention turned to a controversial and often misunderstood folk saint: La Santa Muerte. Through anthropology, history, and firsthand accounts, we explore whether this figure represents something sinister... or whether fear and cultural bias have distorted her meaning.
This episode contains sensitive material and explores themes of child harm, belief, and justice. Listener discretion is strongly advised.

In the hills outside Philadelphia lies Duffy’s Cut, a stretch of railroad haunted by whispers, strange lights, and a century-old secret. 
What began as a ghost story passed down through generations slowly revealed a hidden chapter of American history involving immigrant laborers, fear-driven violence, and a truth deliberately buried. This episode explores how folklore, science, and persistence converged to give voice to the forgotten dead and asks whether the spirits were ever really silent.

Horror strikes in the schools of rural Malaysia as girls suddenly begin screaming, claiming that there are evil spirits around them. And in a shoe factory, more women (up to 30 at a time) begin acting strangely and displaying supernatural strength. In another case, a Chinese family in Malaysia begins experiencing a spiritual possession; something that only a bomoh, a spiritual healer, can help with. What makes these creepy cases so bizarre is that they were studied by psychiatrists through interviews, analysis, and professional diagnosis. Even to this day, they are considered to be cases of mass spiritual possession.

There is horror in the fields. When ranchers in Oregon stumble upon their most valuable bulls mysteriously mutilated, fear spreads across the community. No blood. No tracks. No answers. What they uncover connects to decades of eerie cases across the American West, and theories that reach far beyond the pastures. Cults? Aliens? Or something much worse?

In this horror story, we'll explore the forests and rivers of Mexico exploring stories of duendes, "the little people", that have haunted generations in Latin America. Where did these stories come from and were they always considered works of the devil? I'll uncover chilling accounts of stolen souls, colonial battles over indigenous spirits, and the survival of ancient folklore in the shadows.
