Bone Valley Season 6 | The Devil’s Quarry II is a ghost story.

More than 30 years after 17-year-old Robin Murphy vanished from Carmel, New York, investigative journalist Paul Solotaroff and reporter Kathleen Horan plunge into the cold case that has haunted the community for decades. Robin was last seen with a convicted violent predator who was never charged in her disappearance. Now, as the original case file is reopened, new witnesses emerge, old evidence is reconsidered, and the search for Robin enters its most critical chapter. Can the truth finally be uncovered before time runs out? Or will one of New York’s most haunting mysteries remain a ghost story forever?

Bone Valley Season 5 | The Devil’s Quarry is hosted by Paul Solotaroff, award-winning investigative journalist and longtime contributing editor at Rolling Stone. For Paul, who has been digging at this story for 5 years, the devil has always been a myth, until now.

The bones of a twelve-year-old girl are found by a hunter in the woods.  A young woman lives inside a real-life horror movie, ignored by everyone she turns to for help. Corrupt cops turn a blind eye to the evil lurking in their midst. The wrong people are convicted of a crime. A drug dealer works tirelessly for justice from jail. Records are hidden. Fingers are pointed. Lives are at stake. In Carmel, NY, the heroes are humble, the power is corrupt, and the devil is real.

Bone Valley Season 4 | Earwitness chronicles the case of Toforest Jonhson. In 1995, Deputy Sheriff William G. Hardy was murdered behind a hotel in Birmingham, Alabama. Toforest Johnson was four miles away at the time and no physical evidence linked him to the crime. But he has been on Death Row for 25 years.

Mama Mystery isn't your average true crime podcast. Every Tuesday, your host Kelly rips into the cases that keep people up at night: the headline-grabbers everyone thinks they know, and the overlooked ones that deserve a hell of a lot more attention. Backed by real research (not just Wikipedia and vibes), Kelly breaks down evidence, picks apart theories, and calls out the details that don't add up — all in a voice that feels less "true crime lecture" and more "your friend who's read every case file." Her husband Austin crashes the mic often enough to keep things honest and occasionally hilarious.

This isn't storytelling for shock value — it's for the victims who deserve to be remembered right and the listeners who want the truth, not the theatrics. Subscribe, get obsessed, and join a community that takes true crime as seriously as it deserves. Make sure you also follow True Crime Kelly on Facebook and TikTok to stay up to date on all things True Crime.

On a winter morning in 1982, two young fathers were found shot to death in a van parked outside an upscale Utah restaurant. The killer soon confessed, but his story about what happened - and why he chose violence - would create more pain, conflict, and questions for the families left in the wake of the murders.

As the families of the men struggle to rebuild their lives, they face questions they never anticipated. Does everyone deserve a second chance? Who is forgiveness for? And if you can inherit trauma, can you also inherit forgiveness? Through their stories, we discover even the most personal decisions can unintentionally ripple through lives, through generations, even impacting the lives of people we’ve never met.

Between January 1996 and July 1997, five women went missing in and around the city of Mons in Belgium. Their disappearances weren’t linked until gruesome discoveries were made across the city. Fifteen trash bags containing thirty-seven body parts were found at strategic dump sites seemingly designed to taunt authorities and spark fear in the public. These women fell victim to a sadistic serial killer. His identity remains unknown, but his name still sparks fear… The Butcher of Mons. In this new season of Le Monstre, Host Matt Graves and a team of investigators and journalists reinvestigate this terrifying case, unearthing new evidence, new witnesses, and new suspects.

Season 1 of Le Monstre covers The Dutroux Affair. Serial killer Marc Dutroux and his accomplices terrorized the country of Belgium. These unspeakable crimes and the incompetence or unwillingness of law enforcement agencies to stop them brought the entire country of Belgium to the brink of revolution. 

John Nuttall and Amanda Korody are scraping by on welfare and methadone in a basement suite with John’s grandma, when they find themselves embroiled in a terrorist plot.

They have no idea that federal police are tracking their every move. Through nearly a hundred hours of surveillance footage and wiretaps, Pressure Cooker puts you in the middle of a sprawling anti-terror operation at the height of the War on Terror — one the courts will eventually call a “travesty of justice."
