It was a beautiful garden, except for the weeds. Strange black stems, with red flowers. And a deadly aroma.

Rather than a haunting, this is another frightening case from the weird section of my paranormal archive. There’s a long tradition of scary plants in horror. They’re something we can’t control, that creep and grow sometimes where we don’t want them too. Slowly, gradually, they can be destructive. We have to keep them in check, or they can take over the spaces where we feel safest.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
