The Eriksson Twins | Perplexing | Ep.164 Feb 23, 2026

Show notes

Send us Fan Mail

The Eriksson twins, Ursula and Sabina Eriksson, are Swedish identical twins who became internationally known after a disturbing 2008 incident in England that was partly filmed for the BBC series Motorway Cops. After being removed from a coach on the M6 motorway, both women suddenly ran into high-speed traffic and were struck by vehicles yet survived, astonishing onlookers by standing up and continuing to behave erratically. Authorities reported that the twins appeared paranoid and delusional, allegedly believing people were trying to harm them, and the case was later widely described as an example of shared psychosis, or folie à deux. Shortly after being released from police custody, Sabina fatally stabbed a man in Staffordshire and was later convicted of manslaughter following psychiatric evaluation, while Ursula recovered after hospitalization, making the case one of the most unsettling and widely discussed modern examples of shared delusional disorder.

Disappearance of Corrie McKeague | Mystery | Ep.161 Feb 02, 2026

In September 2016, 23-year-old RAF gunner Corrie McKeague vanished in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, after a night out with friends. CCTV showed him walking into an area with BIFFA bins in the early hours of 24 September, and his mobile phone signal later tracked near a landfill site — leading investigators to theorize he may have fallen into a bin that was then emptied into a refuse truck. Despite extensive searches and a high-profile investigation, no remains have ever been found. In 2022 an inquest concluded his death was likely caused by being crushed in a refuse vehicle, though his body has never been recovered.

The murder of Sophie Lancaster occurred in August 2007. She and her boyfriend, Robert Maltby, were attacked by a group of teenage boys in Stubbylee Park in Bacup, Lancashire on 11 August 2007.

The attack was senseless, needless and unwarranted. How do we prevent these sorts of attacks in the future. Teach Love, Teach inclusivity, Teach kindness.

In this episode, we’ll unravel the twisty legend of the Pukwudgie — why they went from “helpful” to “horrific,” what woods they’re tied to, and the wild tales that still swirl about people spotting them. We’ll ask: are they harmless forest spirits, or vengeful little monsters best left alone?

So settle in, maybe turn off the lights, and get ready to meet some very small terror from the woods…
