How can one episode have so many red flags? Well, surprise - it's because it's a DOUBLE FEATURE! In honour of Halloween, both Christie and Alex will be chatting two very horrifying and scary true crime cases. First, Christie chats about the notorious case, Belle Gunness - which was suggested by our Patron, Angela! Then, Alex talks about the Canada's own vampire, Wayne Clifford Boden. Trigger warning is advised for this episode. And, maybe, you should listen with the doors locked. Need a distraction? We got you.  Podcast promos: Ye Olde Crime Podcast, Beyond the Rainbow Podcast & Reverie True Crime Podcast - all three podcasts are also releasing something spooky for Halloween, so check them out!
