    S20 Ep72: Down To The Bone: Investigating The Murder of The McStay Family w/ Caitlin Rother
    Jun 17 2025
    True Crime Tuesday presents: Down To The Bone: Investigating The Murder of The McStay Family w/ Caitlin Rother!

    On February 15, 2010, Joseph McStay, his wife Summer, and their two young sons were reported missing from their new home in San Diego County. They left eggs and fruit rotting on the counter. Their Dodge truck sat in the driveway. Their dogs were abandoned outside without food. But investigators found no blood, signs of a struggle, or clues to their whereabouts. Did the family take an unannounced vacation? Were they running away from personal problems? Or were they victims of foul play? Nearly four years later, a motorcyclist found the McStays’ remains in and around two shallow graves, one hundred miles away in the Mojave Desert. Their skulls showed signs of blunt-force trauma, likely due to the sledgehammer buried with them. Authorities focused on Charles "Chase" Merritt, a close friend and subcontractor for Joseph’s company. Despite a lack of physical evidence, scenarios that defied logic, and numerous unanswered questions, prosecutors convinced a jury of Merritt’s guilt. After an emotional sentencing hearing, the judge imposed the death penalty. But did another possible suspect, who was ignored by investigators and ducked a subpoena to testify, get away with murder?

    On today's TCT, Caitlin Rother joins the show to talk about the players surrounding the McStay family, why they had motive to do them harm, why they did and didn't harm them, and what faults the McStays themselves had that lead to their eventual downfall...

  • S20 Ep71: The Occult Elvis: The Mystical and Magical Life of the King w/Miguel Connor

    S20 Ep71: The Occult Elvis: The Mystical and Magical Life of the King w/Miguel Connor
    Jun 12 2025
    Darkness Radio Presents: The Occult Elvis: The Mystical and Magical Life of the King with Podcaster/Author Miguel Connor!

    Writer and researcher Miguel Conner reveals how Elvis was a profound mystic, occultist, and shaman. Beginning with the unusual circumstances of his birth—and his stillborn twin brother—Conner traces the diverse thread of mysticism that runs through Elvis Presley’s life, drawing on firsthand accounts from the people closest to him, including his wife, Priscilla, the Memphis Mafia, and his spiritual advisors. Conner argues that Elvis was well-versed in the esoteric practices of sex magic, meditation, astrology, and numerology and had a deep familiarity with Kabbalah, Gnosticism, Theosophy, and Eastern traditions. He also reveals how Elvis was a natural healer, telekinetic, psychic, and astral traveler who had significant mystical experiences and UFO encounters. Looking at the conspiratorial and paranormal aspects of Elvis’s life, the author explores the "Elvis visitations" that have occurred since the King’s death and the general high weirdness of his life. As Conner convincingly argues, Elvis was not just a one-of-a-kind rock-and-roller. He was the greatest magician America ever produced.

    On Today's Show, We talk to Miguel about whether Elvis was always destined to become who he was, what shaped his spirituality. some of the occult practices Elvis got into, and his abilities... and some of the appearances Elvis made... after he died!

    S20 Ep69: Chasson's Run: The Prison Break That Captivated America w/Daniel Zimmerman
    Jun 10 2025
    True Crime Tuesday presents: Chasson's Run: The Prison Break That Captivated America w/ Author, Daniel Zimmerman !

    CHASSON'S RUN: The Prison Break That Captivated America And the Love Story That Fueled It is a gripping true crime tale that will leave you on the edge of your seat. On September 6, 1982, convicted murderer Leroy James Chasson made a daring break for freedom from the Massachusetts Correctional Institute-Walpole-one of the most infamous, escape-proof prisons in the country. But this wasn't just any prison break. It was a meticulously planned, five-year effort, made possible by an unlikely accomplice-Kathleen MacDonald, Chasson's former pen-pal turned wife. Leroy Chasson, wounded and bleeding from self-inflicted wounds was first transferred to a hospital for treatment. Then, using a .45 automatic smuggled to him by his wife who was disguised as a nurse, took hospital guards and staff hostage, before fleeing under a hail of gunfire. Dubbed the "Bonnie and Clyde" of Massachusetts, the couple's daring run across the country captivated the nation and they would evade capture for years. Living under assumed identities, they nearly made it-until a tip from America's Most Wanted led to their eventual capture in 1989.

    On today's TCT, Dan tells us what separated LeRoy Chasson from other psychopaths and killers. He also tells us why people were attracted to such a volatile man and how he and his wife were able to elude police for so long...

    Darkness Radio Presents: Dissecting The Mysteries of the Paranormal with Podcasters/Scientists/Authors, The Spooky Science Sisters, Meagan Ankney & Paige Miller !!

    On their quest to demystify the paranormal world, The Spooky Science Sisters, Meagan Ankney and Paige Miller, examine the science behind mysteries like ghostly apparitions, legendary cryptids, and spine-chilling haunted places. From deciphering the peculiar electromagnetic fields that lead to ghostly apparitions to uncovering the origins of mythical creatures, no enigma is too daunting for these tenacious sisters. Filled with historical anecdotes, scientific research, and a dash of sisterly banter, this rollercoaster of thrills, and scientific enlightenment, will have you questioning everything you thought you knew about the paranormal. As the sisters debunk things like popular ghost-hunting equipment, they provide valuable insights into the scientific principles at play—with an emphasis on scientific concepts in physics, chemistry, weather, and biology—separating fact from fiction in a refreshingly straightforward way. Through their signature blend of family-friendly humor and scientific accuracy, these spirited sisters offer a fresh perspective on:
    • Ghosts
    • Vampires
    • Mothman
    • Bloody Mary
    • Aliens
    • and more!
    On Today's Show, Tim runs the Sisters through their skeptical paces on many paranormal subjects and topics, including techniques in a paranormal investigation and even paranormal monsters and myths!

    May 29 2025
    Darkness Radio Presents: The Maury Island Incident: The First Sighting Of Aliens In America w/Mark Everton & Steve Edmiston

    In 1947 there were a series of bizarre encounters with Unidentified Flying Objects across the United States and Roswell, New Mexico became a household name. But first, in Washington, a spree of sightings would unfold bringing to the modern world the concept of the ‘flying saucer’ and possibly the first instance of Men in Black. This brings up the question, Is this first sighting on Maury Island (which was later called a hoax by the Government, for reasons stated in today's program)actually the first acknowledged sighting of UFO in America and not Roswell?!

    On Today's show, we welcome in the head of the UFO Mysteries Trail at Seattle Southside , an adventure that delves into the historical Maury Island Incident... and Steve Edmiston, the Screenwriter and Co-Producer of "The Maury Incident", an award-winning short film chronicling the true story of Harold Dahl and his alleged 1947 sighting of a UFO over Puget Sound. We talk with Mark and Steve about the incident, why Project Blue Book and the FBI deemed this a hoax, how the Men in Black became involved in this event (and why this area of the country has a Men In Black Birthday Bash!),and, if this case could be reopened and brought before the politicians on Capital Hill?!
