Ep. 8: The Wrongful Execution of George Stinney Jr Jun 16, 2022

Show notes

In 1944, George Stinney Jr went down in history as the youngest person to ever be put to death at the age of 14. In a span of just 83 days, he had been charged with murder, tried, convicted, and executed by the state. 70 years later, he was finally exonerated. Injustice comes in many forms. This is certainly among the most upsetting.

Ep. 7: The Tragic Tale of Theodosia Burr Apr 29, 2022

Show notes

At first glance, the name Theodosia pops out in the eyes of many broadway-enthusiasts. With the success off the widely popular musical Hamilton, “Dear Theodosia” stood out in a soundtrack full of instant classics. The ballad told of a love between a father and his daughter, but many people have never explored the tragic life of Theodosia Burr. Presumed dead after being lost as sea, many theories started to rise surrounding her mysterious vanishing. Her ghost is said to haunt her plantation The Oaks, along with the Outer Banks, Richmond Hill and Bald Head Island, where it is said that her spirit is chased by three headless pirates. The questions surrounding her disappearance seem to outnumber the answers. That may be the most tragic part of this entire tale.

Ep. 6: Sumter County Does Mar 26, 2022

Show notes

In August of 1976, two bodies were discovered by a trucker on a dirt road in Sumter County. They had been murdered in cold blood and left exposed for anyone to find. It was evident that they were not from South Carolina, but the police had little to go on. Almost 45 years had passed with no leads on identifying the victims or their killer. It seemed as if the answers would never come. Two missing persons with families concerned of their whereabouts and dwindling hope as the years went on, fearing that they would never get closure. That was, until recently…

Ep. 5: Creepy Clown Sightings of 2016 Feb 19, 2022

Show notes

Coulrophobia is, by definition, the fear of clowns. According to the Cleveland Clinic website, those who fear clowns may experience extreme, irrational reactions when they see them in person or in various forms of media. So when creepy clown sightings started popping up in 2016, it created a full-blown panic across the country. Reports and videos of these "Killer clowns" spread like wildfire with claims that some of them were attempting to lure children into the woods. What most people don't realize is that these sightings originated in the upstate of South Carolina. What was the inspiration for these clown sightings? Some think it was promotional material for upcoming films, but maybe the motivations were more sinister than we thought.
