In the vast, windswept wilds of Wyoming, stories echo across time—some whispered in ancient legend, others carried in the cold silence of unsolved crimes. Long before these modern tragedies, the Indigenous Shoshone people spoke of the Nimerigar, a race of tiny, fierce warrior people said to dwell in the mountains and caves of the region. Lauren explores the possibility that ancient folklore and modern fear intersect in the same haunted landscape. But that’s not the only mystery buried in the Basin. Kenzie dives into the chilling mystery of the Great Basin Murders, a string of unsolved homicides that have haunted law enforcement for decades. Women found along remote stretches of highway, their identities unknown, their lives forgotten—until now. We are doing something new and special for this case and covering it across multiple episodes because it spans multiple states! Join us as we explore what links—if any—exist between myth and mystery, and uncover the unsettling stories that make Wyoming’s Great Basin a place where history never stays buried.
