In Episode 7 of Shadow Chat Sessions, we dive into another unhinged blend of true crime, paranormal mysteries, and criminal stupidity. This week’s lineup includes the international case of a missing U.S. aviation student in New Zealand, a $75 million cocaine seizure at Brisbane Port, and a woman poisoned with cyanide — slipped into her iced coffee by a “friend.”

We’re also tracking a Florida man who tried to dodge jail because he had a curfew, and a guy who robbed a store using a finger gun and then escaped in a pink SUV like it was a Barbie heist.

On the supernatural side, we explore the haunted Room 873 at Canada’s Banff Springs Hotel, the cursed Dybbuk Box (a haunted wine cabinet blamed for death and madness), and Houska Castle — the Czech fortress allegedly built over a literal gateway to Hell. Then we shift to winged terror with France’s eerie Papillon (a European Mothman?) and close with Cold War horror: the Phantom Cosmonauts — Soviet astronauts who may have died in space and were erased from history.

👻 Strange news. 🕵️ True crime. 💀 Dumb criminals. 🛸 Hauntings. If it’s weird, haunted, or just plain stupid — we’re covering it.
