The Bridgewater Triangle Jun 08, 2026

Show notes

In southeastern Massachusetts, a stretch of land known as the Bridgewater Triangle has been a magnet for paranormal activity for centuries: cryptid sightings, UFO encounters, ghostly apparitions, and evidence of occult rituals. Many trace the darkness back to King Philip's War of 1675-76, one of the deadliest conflicts per capita in American history, which left the land scarred by massacre, displacement, and loss. In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes, Vanessa Richardson explores the history, the hauntings, and whether the Triangle's strange reputation is rooted in something real or something we need to believe. With archaeological sites dating back over 8,000 years, the answers may run deeper than any single legend.

Anansi’s Goatman: When the Terror Blends In Jun 07, 2026

Show notes

In the summer of 2012, a teenager's camping trip on remote Alabama woodland turns into something no one can explain. What begins with strange smells and figures standing motionless in the dark escalates when the group realizes there's an extra person in their group... without anyone noticing. The horror isn't a monster in the woods. It's a creature already inside the room.

The Clutter Family Jun 06, 2026

Show notes

On the night of November 14th, 1959, four members of the Clutter family were bound and shot dead in their farmhouse in Holcomb, Kansas. Nothing of value had been stolen. The doors, as always, had been unlocked.

In the first of three episodes on the Clutter family murders, Katie Ring traces who the Clutters really were, and the morning when friends and neighbors arrived for church and found them gone. This is the case that changed how America thinks about small-town safety, and inspired one of the most famous books ever written.

This episode contains descriptions of murder and violence. Please listen with care.

Richard "The Iceman" Kuklinski Jun 05, 2026

Show notes

Richard Kuklinski grew up in the violent housing projects of Jersey City, New Jersey, where abuse at home and relentless bullying on the streets hardened him into a killer before he turned 15. By his mid-twenties, he had leveraged his capacity for cold-blooded violence into a career as a trusted hitman for the Gambino crime family under Brooklyn mob boss Roy DeMeo. This episode traces how Kuklinski's early trauma, unchecked rage, and hunger for control drove him deeper into organized crime... and closer to his own undoing.

Dale Kerstetter: Heist or Homicide Jun 02, 2026

Show notes

On September 12, 1987, 50-year-old night watchman Dale Kerstetter clocked in at Corning Glass Works in Bradford, Pennsylvania and was never seen again. Surveillance footage captured him calmly walking off-camera beside a masked intruder, pausing only to look directly into the lens. When the masked man reappeared hours later, he dragged a large bag from the building and left with $220,000 worth of platinum. Thirty-five years later, investigators still don't know whether Dale was a victim or a willing accomplice.

The Banana Wars Jun 01, 2026

Show notes

In 1954, the CIA orchestrated a covert coup that removed Guatemala's democratically elected president, Jacobo Árbenz, at the behest of Cold War anxieties and the United Fruit Company's political influence. What looked like a communist threat to Washington was, in reality, a land reform program that dared to challenge American corporate power in Central America. In this episode, Vanessa untangles how Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes intersect in Operation PBSUCCESS — a blueprint for covert intervention whose consequences destabilized the region for decades.

Casey Anthony May 30, 2026

Show notes

In the summer of 2008, two-year-old Caylee Anthony vanished, and her mother Casey didn't report her missing for thirty-one days. In that time, she got a tattoo, went to nightclubs, and stayed at her boyfriend's apartment. When Casey's car turned up at a tow yard, a former police officer recognized the smell coming from the trunk. He was Caylee's grandfather. He said nothing.

In the first of three episodes on the death of Caylee Anthony, Katie Ring traces the Anthony family, the tensions that had been building for years, and the elaborate web of lies that unraveled the moment investigators started pulling at the threads.

This episode contains descriptions of child death and references to allegations of abuse. Please listen with care.

"The Ypsilanti Ripper" John Norman Collins May 29, 2026

Show notes

Vanessa and Dr. Engels are joined by Katie Ring, host of the Crime House Original America's Most Infamous Crimes to discuss the crimes of the "Ypsilanti Ripper." In the late 1960s, Eastern Michigan University students Mary Fleszar and Joan Schell were brutally murdered by someone hiding in plain sight: their charming, honor-roll neighbor John Norman Collins. Despite a witness placing Collins with one victim and a description matching his car, he talked his way out of police scrutiny and continued killing. This episode examines Collins's violent childhood, his escalating crimes, and the psychological unraveling behind his all-American facade.
