In Part Two, we pick up with the investigation closing in on Juana Barraza and the moment everything finally unravels. After years of missed leads and a profile that pointed in the wrong direction, police make a stunning arrest that forces them to rethink the entire case. We break down the evidence, Barraza’s confession and contradictions, and the trial that followed as her past, motives, and possible victim count come into focus. As the story comes to a close, we examine how she was caught, what may never be fully known, and the lasting impact of one of Mexico City’s most chilling cases.

In Part One, we begin the story of Juana Barraza, one of Mexico’s most infamous serial killers. Known as “La Mataviejitas,” or The Little Old Lady Killer, Barraza targeted elderly women across Mexico City, slipping into their homes under the guise of a government worker before murdering them. We explore her early life, the patterns behind the killings, and how the investigation struggled to keep up as fear spread throughout the city. As the body count rises and police chase the wrong profile, a disturbing truth begins to take shape.

Part Two picks up immediately after the arrest of Clifford Hayes, the first man charged in the Hall Mills murders. We break down how police built a case on a coerced confession, why it quickly fell apart, and how Hayes was cleared while Raymond Schneider was convicted of perjury instead. From there, the investigation lurches forward through botched evidence, unreliable witnesses, and a courtroom spectacle that culminates in the infamous 1926 trial of Frances Hall and her family. We unpack the prosecution’s theories, the defense’s brutal dismantling of key testimony, and how the trial ultimately left the case exactly where it started, unresolved, controversial, and haunted by what might have been done differently.

Before authorities can secure the area, reporters and onlookers flood the scene, disturbing crucial evidence and muddying the investigation from the very beginning. We walk through who the victims were, the origins of their relationship, the tensions in their marriages, and the early timeline that shaped the first wave of suspicion.

One, an unsolved murder from hundreds of years ago fueled by romance, revenge, and politics, and the other, a modern-day criminologist and professor who began mapping medieval crimes to help better understand how the criminal justice system began and evolved. The two stories intertwined when said criminologist began to explore this cold case, and eventually, helped to come up with some resolutions, 686 years later.

Why was John Ford murdered mafia-style in broad daylight in London back in 1337? What was his connection to English noblewoman, Ella FitzPayne, and was she really to blame? Dr. Manuel Eisner's pursuit of answers through the creation of Medieval Murder Maps helped unravel some of these questions that went unanswered for hundreds of years.

With simultaneous amnesia, bizarre hints at an odd experience, and a feeling of lived trauma, their story shaped how stories like it were told—and understood—from then on.
Through hypnosis, dreams and first-hand accounts, the Hills kept their story somewhat private, until it leaked in an article that shot them to national fame. But did it really happen? Join us for the ultimate Mulder and Scully experience!

If you have the internet, you’ve probably heard about it. A tale of a murder suicide in the 50’s during Christmas time, where a doctor had killed his wife, attempted to kill his daughter, then killed himself with Nembutal and pills. The house was then left as it was post murder for decades - a literal 1950’s time capsule - with rumors of the paranormal, eventually becoming a hot spot for dark tourism.

In part two of this two part topic, we discuss the history of the house, the curse associated with it, and the weirdness of patterns of deaths and abandonment of the home for years.  Is the house and property really haunted? Was it really lived in all those years? And who owns it now? Join us as we debunk this urban legend and bring some truth to the decades of bizarre stories.
