  • Summary

  • Welcome back to another episode of Scream and Sugar, your true crime coffee hour. Hang with us today as Candace takes us through the incredible story of the Bluebelle ship.
    In November 1961, the Bluebelle, a chartered vacation yacht, set sail from Florida for a holiday voyage, carrying Captain Julian Harvey, his wife Mary Dene, and the Duperrault family who hired him. Tragedy struck when the vessel mysteriously sank in the middle of the Caribbean. Julian Harvey was found days later, claiming that a sudden storm had destroyed the yacht and drowned everyone else. However, suspicion grew as his version of events seemed inconsistent with the conditions reported at sea.
    The real twist came when 11-year-old Terry Jo Duperrault, thought to be among the victims, was discovered floating alone on a cork raft after four days adrift. Terry Jo's survival story contradicted Harvey’s claims, revealing a chilling truth. Terry Jo’s miraculous survival unraveled one of the most shocking crimes at sea, leaving the world stunned by the lengths Harvey went to conceal his crimes.
    Today's episode sends all its love to Tahoe Lake's favorite, Heidi's Restaurant!
    Remember to stay spooky, ya'll!
