In the Season Three finale, me and my guest host Grace get into the many tales of Dogtown, a farming settlement founded in 1693 in Gloucester, MA. The small town briefly thrived until the Revolutionary War when 60 of the settlement's wives were left widows, nothing but their dogs to keep them company as their houses began to crumble around them. Now a ghost town, Dogtown is known for it's famous Babson Boulders, being a former home to witches, and the site of a terrible murder of a school teacher in 1984. What else might lurk in those woods?

On July 18, 1969, Ted Kennedy drove off Dyke Bridge while attending a party on Chappaquiddick, located on Martha's Vineyard. Though he managed to get out of the car, his passenger, Mary Jo Kopechne, a former campaign aid of Robert Kennedy, could not get out. Ted claimed to have tried to save her but he never contacted authorities until the next morning after her body had been found. Many people Kennedy never told the full story from that night and that it ruined his chances of becoming president. Could Mary Jo have been saved if something had been done sooner?

On October 24th, 1961, 31-year-old Joan Risch disappeared from her home in Lincoln, MA, leaving behind quite a big mystery that still has people puzzled. Her kitchen was bloody, her phone ripped from the wall, fingerprints found didn't all match her own, and there had been an unknown car parked in her driveway among other strange details. Yet a woman matching her description was also seen bloody and disoriented on two different roads in town. Did Joan set up this crime scene and disappear on purpose? Did someone hurt her? Did she hurt herself and wander off?

Jesse Pomeroy holds the record for longest incarceration in the U.S. and was the youngest person to be sent to jail for murder after killing two children and torturing a number of others. He was only 14-years-old at the time of his conviction on December 8th, 1874. But he isn't the only young killer in Massachusetts or surrounding states. Though he may've been the most sadistic. This week I cover him and a few other killer kids whose motives range from burglary, anger, gun violence, and sex. What drives kids to kill?

On June 23rd, 1902, Jane Toppan was finally convicted of killing at least 11 people while working as a nurse in Eastern Massachusetts. She was declared guilty by reason of insanity for her crimes, getting pleasure toying with her victims by poisoning them before finally allowing them to die. She spent years discretely killing people and there's a chance she actually murdered nearly 100 people though it was never confirmed. Did the trauma of her earlier years turn her into a killer?

In the Season Two finale, I cover the unsolved murder of Karina Holmer, a Swedish Au Pair who was killed after disappearing from a nightclub in Boston in 1996. Many people speculate that it was her employers that had something to do with her murder, and though there were other suspects, her killer is still unknown. Was she killed by her employers? A possible serial killer who was beheading people around the same time? Or was it a completely random person?

Starting in the mid 1800s, state-run mental facilities started caring for patients all across Massachusetts. What started with the intent to help 'cure' people turned into an overcrowded nightmare where patients were experimented on, abused, and neglected. In this episode I talk about a number of institutions and the history there, like how Paul A. Dever School was a former WWII POW camp and the grisly murder of Anne Marie Davee at Metropolitan State Hospital.

In this episode, I look into the history of the Hoosac Tunnel which came to be on known as the Bloody Pit because so many men died building it. The tunnel took 24 years to complete and claimed almost 200 lives, the stories of the hauntings there going back to the late 1800s. Was the project to build the tunnel through the mountain actually cursed?

In this episode I talk about the legends and stories behind Spider Gates Cemetery, one of the allegedly most creepy cemeteries in Massachusetts. Maybe it's because of the satanic sacrifices, murders, or the fact that it's considered the 8th Gate to Hell. And what if there are other such gates across Massachusetts?
