The Dybbuk Box stems from the Jewish mythology of dybbuks/dibbuks: evil spirits that adhere or cling to something. We’re giving you a brief history on the origin before discussing the box, how it keeps Rogaine in business, and ragging on Bagans for much longer than anticipated.

79. The One with the McDonald’s Massacre

Mon, 26 Jul 2021 08:34:14 -0700

McDonald’s Diet Coke is one of our favorite things, but this case will have us thinking twice before we step inside a Mickey D’s anytime soon. The McDonald’s massacre is one of the deadliest mass shootings in American history, and the culprit? Apparently chicken nuggets…

78. The One with the Slender Man Stabbing

Mon, 19 Jul 2021 09:05:17 -0700

In 2014, 12-year-old girls Anissa Weier and Morgan Geyser stabbed their friend Payton Leutner a total of 19 times. The reason: they wanted to become proxies of the Slender Man.

77. The One with the CCTV Footage

Tue, 13 Jul 2021 08:54:42 -0700

It’s not very often that a crime basically plays out on camera right in front of your eyes, but that’s what happened when Philip Chism was caught on school security cameras following his math teacher, Colleen Ritzer, into the bathroom. What happens next is the most baffling, randomly brutal attack.

76. The One with the Billboards in Vidor, Texas

Mon, 28 Jun 2021 11:48:39 -0700

If you’ve seen the hit film “Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri”, you may have noticed the disclaimer that the film was inspired by true events. Today we’re bringing you a listener request to cover the story that inspired the film.

Kathy Fulton Page was discovered in her car in what appeared to be a staged accident, but charges have never been brought against anyone. Her family continues to fight for justice and her dad had gone as far as to rent billboard space to bring attention to the case, but it seems there is very much one suspect in mind.

75. The One with Icky András Pándy

Mon, 21 Jun 2021 08:31:48 -0700

Nothing like a little murder and incest to start your Monday! András Pándy was a Hungarian-Belgium “pillar of the community,” and we all know what that means! The only thing more disturbing than this body count is the way McKenzie butchers every name along the way.

74. The One with the Triple Homicide

Mon, 14 Jun 2021 09:32:21 -0700

A cheating husband, his wife, and his mistress and her daughter all walk into a house…

Unlike a good ol’ bar joke though, only one walks out alive. Gerald “Mike” Bullinger was cheating (again) on his wife Cheryl Baker when she stumbled upon his mistress and her daughter living in their brand new home. Shots are fired, and only one walks away and disappears - never to be seen again.

73. The One with The Mutant

Mon, 07 Jun 2021 10:04:28 -0700

72. The One with the Sick Suitcase Murder

Mon, 24 May 2021 09:13:27 -0700

Australia… what in the hell is going on down under, my friends!?

If your boyfriend is one of the worst guys in the world and you still go back to him because you’re a match made in hell, you must be Hazel Passmore. When Hazel becomes suspicious that Daniel Holdom is cheating on her, he reassures her it simply isn’t possible… because the woman in question is dead.

Rather than report the murders of Karlie Pearce-Stevenson and Khandalyce Pearce, Hazel’s next actions are just truly unbelievable. Listen to find out more!

Mon, 17 May 2021 09:11:27 -0700

67. The One with the Spreckels Mansion Mystery

Mon, 19 Apr 2021 08:48:48 -0700

63. The One Where Susan Walters is a Survivor

Sun, 21 Mar 2021 23:49:28 -0700

61. The One Where We Debate Scott Peterson Part 3

Mon, 01 Mar 2021 11:14:20 -0800

Was Scott Peterson actually fleeing to Mexico? Was that DIY home bleach job really to disguise himself from police?

Tue, 23 Feb 2021 23:45:46 -0800

Tue, 26 Jan 2021 22:11:24 -0800

Is Robert Durst jinxed, or the luckiest alleged murderer on the planet?

We're covering HBO's The Jinx and the bodies that seem to fall around Durst under the most coincidental of circumstances.

56. The One with the Scream Murder

Mon, 18 Jan 2021 10:51:42 -0800

Do you like scary movies? What's your favorite scary movie? If you answered Halloween, you're wrong.

Brian Draper and Torey Adamcik took their love of the Scream franchise way too far when they used the movie as inspo to terrorize and murder Cassie Jo Stoddart. When they say life imitates art, I don't think this is what they had in mind.

55. True Crime Chats: Guilty Gossip

Tue, 29 Dec 2020 12:11:50 -0800

A new segment, perhaps? We're discussing some high profile, highly controversial cases in today's episode of True Crime Chats and asking the age-old question: Guilty or Innocent? These aren't deep dives, but rather a true crime snack, ice breaker, shoot-the-shit, appetizer-type-thing, if you will.

The possibilities are endless for this segment - guilty or not guilty, would you rather?, unpopular opinions, etc. Send us your ideas/requests and join us on IG @astrangerdangerpodcast to cast your votes periodically. You may just hear your name in a future episode!

54. The One with the Killing Knives

Tue, 15 Dec 2020 10:48:12 -0800

When parents cut off their freeloading children from the gravy train (not the Thanksgiving kind that goes with turkey and mashed potatoes), things tend to escalate quickly. Deadbeat Joel Guy Jr. didn’t take too kindly to his parents forcing him to get a job, so he took matters into his own hands and did what will likely be the only manual labor he completes in his lifetime.

53. The One Where They’d do Anything for Selena!

Mon, 23 Nov 2020 09:51:58 -0800

We’re doing a deeper dive into some of the events you didn’t see in the movie (shoutout J.Lo!) and what took place following one of music’s most puzzling murders.

52. The One with Richard Speck’s Mass Murder

Thu, 12 Nov 2020 23:04:04 -0800

Bringing you another installment of our Mindhunter series - the long awaited Richard Speck. Classified as a mass murderer rather than a serial killer, Speck went on a murder frenzy one night without much rhyme or reason. While one of the less reflective of the Mindhunter participants, he definitely gives us lots to analyze in this episode.

Dedicated to my love, Mikey. Thank you for always being my #1 fan on this journey. Love, McKenzie

Thu, 01 Oct 2020 11:43:40 -0700

48. The One with Sleep Paralysis Stories

Wed, 23 Sep 2020 09:59:21 -0700

During the 1970s - 1980s, male Hmong immigrants suddenly began dying after days of not sleeping in a desperate attempt to avoid night terrors and sleep paralysis. The phenomenon became known as SUNDS (Sudden Nocturnal Death Syndrome) and later inspired the film Nightmare on Elm Street. In honor of spooky season around the corner, we're recounting some terrifying sleep paralysis stories.

Sleep tight, Murder Lovers.

46. The One with the Mean Girls Murder

Thu, 10 Sep 2020 15:08:14 -0700

Not sure if that’s what this murder is actually called, but these girls put Regina George to shame! Shanda Sharer was just twelve years old when she was brutally murdered... by a bunch of teenage girls. Young, dumb, and evil may be the ultimate understatement of the century to describe Amanda Heavrin, Melinda Loveless, Hope Rippey, Laurie Tacket, and Toni Lawrence.

45. The One with Kip Kinkel

Thu, 03 Sep 2020 09:11:05 -0700

We're back with another Oregon classic featuring trench coats, homemade bombs, and firearms all at the age of 15. What could go wrong? Kip Kinkel goes on the war path after being suspended for bringing a gun to school, and takes his rage out on his family and classmates with a hail of gunfire.

44. The One with the Face-Lift Murder

Thu, 06 Aug 2020 01:08:38 -0700

Imagine thinking you're being gifted a little nip/tuck only to have to pay for it... with your life. Michele MacNeill seemed to be clueless to her husband thottin' and boppin' around town with his sidepiece when he prompted her to go under the knife as a gift. When things go wrong, Dr. Martin MacNeill can't even be bothered to give her proper CPR.

If we've said it once, we'll say it again: The husband did it.

43. The One for World Day Against Human Trafficking

Wed, 29 Jul 2020 08:19:57 -0700

42. The One Where Jonestown Drinks the Kool-Aid

Thu, 16 Jul 2020 07:31:19 -0700

They say don’t drink the Kool-Aid, but did Jonestown really take cyanide shots willingly? Jim Jones was the leader behind what was deemed one of the largest mass suicides the country had ever seen, but suicide implies willingness and... well, these followers seemed as suicidal as Jeffrey Epstein - and he didn’t kill himself either.

41. The One with Shoe Fetish Killer Jerome Brudos

Wed, 08 Jul 2020 14:42:10 -0700

Fri, 05 Jun 2020 17:20:54 -0700

Thu, 28 May 2020 23:22:13 -0700

35. The One with the Turpin House of Horrors

Fri, 22 May 2020 23:51:45 -0700

34. The One with the “Slave Master” Serial Killer

Wed, 06 May 2020 22:46:10 -0700

John Edward Robinson was truly a freak, but not in a good way. Earning his name by luring women into BDSM relations via internet chat rooms, I’m sure you can guess the rest. Let’s just say this story doesn’t end like 50 Shades of Grey.

Tue, 07 Apr 2020 23:32:19 -0700

Need a break from the Coronavirus stress? We’re bringing you zero peace of mind with the most stressful (but amazing) survival story of Mary Vincent, who was brutally attacked by Lawrence Singleton at just 15 years old. As we always say, don’t get in vans with strangers.

26. The One with Daphne Wright’s “Hacked” Crime Scene

Mon, 09 Mar 2020 00:14:41 -0700

What do you get with an electric chainsaw and some blue paint? Basically the worst crime scene cover up ever. Dubbed a “love triangle gone wrong,” we’re setting the record straight on what happened between Daphne Wright, her ex Sallie Collins, and innocent (and platonic) victim Darlene VanderGiesen.

25. The One with the Greyhound Bus Beheading

Thu, 05 Mar 2020 07:32:02 -0800

If we’ve learned anything, it’s that you’re not yourself when you’re hungry and off your meds. Vince Li proved bus rage is a real thing when he attacked and killed Tim McLean, but did the punishment fit the crime?

24. The One Where Nathaniel Bar-Jonah Should Eat a Snickers

Mon, 24 Feb 2020 07:24:20 -0800

BYOBurgers to cookouts from here on out! Convicted child molester, possible serial killer, maybe a cannibal? Basically, this guy has the whole package. Beware of strangers serving up some suspect barbecue in their backyards, Murder Lovers!

23. The One with Ashley Benson and Two Chris Yoons

Sun, 16 Feb 2020 08:47:39 -0800

No, not the Ashley Benson from Pretty Little Liars. We have a story full of mistaken identities, murder, and too many coincidences. Did two neighbors with the same name in the same hotel on the night of this Portland murder really not know each other? You decide.

22. The One with the Santa Fe Prison Riot

Mon, 10 Feb 2020 23:31:47 -0800

Murder and torture and dismemberment, oh my! The Santa Fe prison riot is one of the most violent prison riots in history, and should be a lesson to all as to what happens when you shove as many violent offenders as possible into a building and then cut off any form of humane treatment. Spoiler: it didn’t go well. Buckle up for a bloody history lesson, murder lovers!

21. The One with Jodi Arias’ New ‘Do

Mon, 03 Feb 2020 12:15:43 -0800

Change your hair, change your life, right?

We should’ve know Jodi Arias was up to no good when she showed up randomly as a brunette. I mean, classic break up move - could she BE anymore cliché? We’re taking you down Jodi’s rabbit hole as she all but volunteers as tribute to be the main suspect in the murder of Travis Alexander. Hold on to your hair bleach, bitches.

20. The One Where the Visine Prank Goes Too Far

Fri, 31 Jan 2020 09:47:32 -0800

Just as a general rule of thumb, don't copy Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn... ever. The Visine Prank is no joke, so the next time you're looking to get back at someone just send them an envelope of glitter instead. Trust me, they'll be vacuuming it up for years and you won't go to prison like these people.

19. May Joel Patrick Courtney Choke on a Milkshake

Thu, 23 Jan 2020 13:09:55 -0800

Our first official listener request! We received a Facebook message asking us to cover the Oregon disappearance and murder of Brooke Wilberger at the hands of Joel Patrick Courtney. As far as we’ve been able to find, no other podcast has covered this case so of course it became our duty to see this one through. Thank you to our listener Kenny for bringing this one to our attention!

18. The One with Bill Bonin’s Stranger Danger Mobile

Sun, 19 Jan 2020 23:25:32 -0800

Try typing “Bonin” into your phone and you’ll get autocorrected to abomination... How fortuitous. Bonin, aka The Freeway Killer, may be the epitome of stranger danger as he and associates (yep, he worked with partners) terrorized boys in California out of an Econoline van. Please don’t hitchhike, people, and for the love of God avoid vans. Or Volkswagen Beetles. Or just any vehicle, for that matter.

Warning: this includes descriptions of sexual assault and torture.

Fri, 10 Jan 2020 14:19:01 -0800

Part 2 of our Mindhunter series is here! Monte Rissell is famous for raping, murdering, and being locked up all before he was of legal drinking age.

We’ll tell you all about it!

15. The One with Serial Baby Killer Kathleen Folbigg

Fri, 03 Jan 2020 21:36:01 -0800

Netflix copied our idea so we’re bringing you a full review of the new docuseries featuring our first podcast topic! We’re going in depth comparing our first episode to their content, and talking about what we did and didn’t like about their coverage of the Canadian Cannibal.

12. The One with the Villisca Axe Murders

Wed, 18 Dec 2019 10:06:03 -0800

A classic case of whodunnit. We're covering Iowa's most notorious cold case featuring an axe, lots of suspects, and the worst crime scene preservation you ever wanted to hear about. We're laying out all the possibilities for you with not much evidence to back it up because, well, there isn't really any. Who do you think killed the Moore family?

11. The One with the Guatemalan Spook-Spook

Sat, 14 Dec 2019 00:03:39 -0800

What better way to get you in the holiday spirit then some good ol’ fashioned ghost stories! Including a demonic pig and whispering ghost children, Fatina’s family has passed these down through the generations and now we’re passing them down to you all. Get ready for some body chills.

10. The One with Ol’ Bumblebutt Ed Kemper

Tue, 10 Dec 2019 11:02:03 -0800

Pull up a chair, this one may take awhile. Ed Kemper loves talking about himself like Kanye loves Kanye, and that’s part of why he’s McKenzie’s favorite serial killer. Part bumbling and socially moronic giant, part genius killer, this guy is truly one of the worst of the worst and that’s why he’s opening our Mindhunter series (also because he appears first and we love chronology).

Hold onto your heads, kids - seriously, hold onto your heads- because this one is going to be graphic.

9. The One with the Alexander Family's Ick Factor

Sat, 07 Dec 2019 11:37:33 -0800

This one is going to make you feel like showering with a wire brush afterwards to get rid of that icky feeling.
The Alexander family has all the things: cult-like behavior, incest, murder, creepy kids. What more could you ask for? No wonder Spain calls this their murder of the century.

8. The One with the Consensual Homicide of Sharon Lopatka

Mon, 02 Dec 2019 15:31:21 -0800

Remember in Episode 1 when Fatina mentioned there are actually people who want to be murdered? Well today is your lucky day! She’s telling us all about how Sharon Lopatka actually arranged her own homicide and we still can’t believe this is actually a thing! 50 Shades made kinks sexy, so allow us to bring you crashing back down to the true crime reality.

7. The One with the Thanksgiving Murder of Kelsey Berreth

Wed, 27 Nov 2019 10:58:32 -0800

If we’ve learned anything, it’s that being around family at the holidays is a gamble. Kelsey went missing on Thanksgiving 2018, and a year later justice was served.

Stick around till the end to hear our thoughts on why all these guys keep getting caught!

6. The One with Ward Weaver's Family Affair

Thu, 21 Nov 2019 10:04:54 -0800

Calling all Oregonians! If you’re of a certain age, you’ll remember the disappearance and murder of Ashley Pond and Miranda Gaddis.

The Weaver family is truly a battle of nature vs. nurture, because these monsters keep producing more monsters to terrorize future generations. Where does this cycle end?

5. The One with the (likely not) Lipstick Killer

Sat, 16 Nov 2019 15:50:29 -0800

And you all thought McKenzie was incapable of emotions... This one features a special guest phone call and some unexpected tears as McKenzie tells us all about William Heirens, the convicted Lipstick Killer. It’ll make you glad to be living in a time with interrogation regulations, that’s for sure.

4. The One with Not So Jolly Joseph

Tue, 12 Nov 2019 00:08:58 -0800

Just in time for the food-filled holidays with your family!

3. Mini Dangersode: The Murder of Pamela Powers

Thu, 07 Nov 2019 23:48:35 -0800

It’s really NOT fun to stay at the YMCA. McKenzie is diving into a case brought to us directly from her mom... shout out VICKIE!

Most of us co-conspirators remember our first true crime story, and this one is Vickie’s.

You’ll never sing the YMCA song the same again.

2. The One with Rodney Alcala, the Dating Game Creep

Sun, 03 Nov 2019 19:26:54 -0800

Pretty sure this is where the rule about not getting in cars with strangers stems from. Rodney Alcala is basically the perfect example of stranger danger, human scum, and a failed judicial system. Prepare to scream at whatever device you’re listening on as you learn about how many times this creep slipped right through those big legal cracks.

EDIT: Jan '20. Please excuse the audio quality. We upgraded the equipment and have vastly improved with time. Thank you :)

1. The One with Luka Magnotta

Sun, 27 Oct 2019 15:33:15 -0700

Pilot: Well that escalated quickly. Luka Magnotta goes zero to sixty with no chill when he takes the life of college student Lin Jun and records himself being the worst human ever. What an idiot. Warning: this one includes mentions of sexual assault and animal abuse.

EDIT: Please excuse the audio quality. We upgraded the equipment and have vastly improved with time. Thank you :)
