Episode 160: The Keddie Cabin Murders- Part 1
On the cold spring morning of April 12, 1981, the quiet mountain town of Keddie, California, was changed forever by a quadruple homicide so heinous it seemed unbelievable. Decades later, the Keddie cabin murders remain a haunting puzzle, full of chilling theories, potential cover-ups, and questions no one has been able to answer. So today, we return to Cabin 28— trying to piece together unsettling clues and the stories these cabin walls left behind… searching for truth in a case where silence and shadows have survived longer than justice ever has.  Today we delve into this 2 part series, discussing the Sharp family, the details of the murders, and we begin to talk suspects. Be sure to tune in next week for part 2.  Follow Jules: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-headlines-with-jules-jen/id1679855147 https://missinginhushtown.com ------ WAYS TO SUPPORT & CONNECT: Join the Patreon for perks and ad free episodes!

Episode 159: The Unsolved Murder of Judy Rawlings
TW/CW: sexual assault and murder of a child A brutal and unsolved murder of a 16 year old girl left residents of a small town in North Carolina completely dismantled. At first glance, little is found about this cold case online. But the further I dug, the more disturbed I became. Despite multiple suspects being looked at, eyewitnesses coming forward, and boxes of damning evidence, to this day no one has ever been arrested or charged for this murder. The victim’s loved ones are still searching for answers. This is the story of the murder of Judy Rawlings.  Check out A Million Other Choices on YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts.  https://www.youtube.com/@amillionotherchoices https://open.spotify.com/show/3RdPyinzu3Dt3SVGX8XT1Q https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a-million-other-choices/id1579267886 ------ WAYS TO SUPPORT & CONNECT: Join the Patreon for perks and ad free episodes!

Episode 146: The Amityville Horror House
Kaydra brings her sister back on the pod to discuss one of the most famous hauntings and iconic murder mysteries of all time. On November 13, 1974, Ronald DeFeo Jr. murdered his parents and four siblings in their beds with a rifle at 112 Ocean Avenue on Long Island. DeFeo would claim he was driven by supernatural forces. The following year, The Lutz would move in, making horrifying claims of the supernatural and fleeing after inhabiting the house for just under a month. Finally, Ed and Lorraine Warren would investigate the home along with many other paranormal groups, claiming demonic and paranormal activity.  So is this place actually haunted? Or is it all a hoax? This is the story of the Amityville Horror house. ------- Merch link: https://www.bonfire.com/store/perplexity-mystery-podcast/?srsltid=AfmBOor6jObuW4_jmnFoT3ibyFfIxBL1hI50LlthjheMTo6emgBneRcQ Special thanks to Charlie Leopold for editing this episode!  Get 15% off your Comfrt order today! https://www.comfrt.com/KAYDRA48805 ------ WAYS TO SUPPORT & CONNECT: Join the Patreon for perks and ad free episodes!

Perplexity: A Mystery Podcast
Episode 145: Let's Talk Dinosaurs with Steven Ray Morris
In this conversational episode, Kaydra is joined by Steven Ray Morris (See Jurassic Right, Ologies, My Favorite Murder, Purrcast). Today we will be stepping back—way back—into a world that’s as mysterious as it is mind-blowing. For over 160 million years, enormous creatures roamed the Earth, living, thriving, and disappearing long before humans ever did. The story of these prehistoric giants is far more complex—and fascinating—than the fossils in a museum case might suggest. From towering predators to gentle giants, these creatures spark both scientific curiosity and wild imagination. So… How did they grow so massive? What colors flashed across their scales and feathers? And, of course, what truly brought their reign to an end? Buckle up, and be listening for any rumbling footsteps because today’s episode is all about dinosaurs!

Perplexity: A Mystery Podcast
Episode 144: The Disappearance of Nicholas Barclay
In 1994, a 13 year old boy named Nicholas Barclay would vanish from San Antonio, Texas. His disappearance never made the news. As time passed, his family knew the chances of him being alive were incredibly slim. But they were desperate for some type of closure. Over 3 years after Nicholas disappeared, his family would be contacted, saying Nicholas had been found alive in Linares, Spain. But how did he get all the way to Spain? Who had taken him? His family had so many questions. And when Nicholas stepped off the plane and was back in America… something felt off. He looked different. Sounded different. And the truth, once uncovered, would shock Nicholas’s family and the world. This is the perplexing story of the disappearance of Nicholas Barclay.
