  • The Hidden Crawlspace That Burned on Harben's Quietest Nights
    Jul 29 2026
    The Hidden Crawlspace That Burned on Harben's Quietest Nights

    The smell of burning wood woke students at 2-3 AM and sent fire crews through Crestfield Hall, yet inspectors found no fire and no smoke. The same exact smell had been reported in the same wing thirty years earlier, in August 1989 - so how could a brick dorm, decommissioned of wood heat since 1964, produce the scent twice in the same month decades apart?

    In this episode, we tell the events as they happened and follow the timeline from the first August night to the morning that brought the fire department, presenting the facts that link a recurring smell to a forgotten space beneath the building and the paper trail that vanished - where did the smell come from?

    Person: Michelle Whitaker
    Date: August 9, 2019
    Location: Crestfield Hall, Harben College
    Period: August 1989 and August 2019
    Event: Recurring smell of burning wood with no fire found

    - Michelle Whitaker first noticed the smell on the second week of August 1989 while sitting by her second-floor east-wing window.
    - The building had not used a wood-burning system since 1964 when it was updated to forced electric air.
    - The smell returned on August 14 and August 19, 1989, and then more intensely between 2 and 3 AM on August 23, 1989.
    - Five students from the east wing woke and gathered at the window the night of August 23, 1989; Jeff Calley called the fire department.
    - A crawl space running the length of the east foundation, dating to the 1922 construction, existed beneath Crestfield Hall and was not referenced in updated building plans.

  • A Sneaker on the Stern: The Disappearance of Pete Garland

    A Sneaker on the Stern: The Disappearance of Pete Garland

    A child's blue size four sneaker, laces tied in a precise double-knot and still damp, sat on the stern gunwale of the Hallie Jane - a boat whose fifty-three-year-old solo owner had been missing for three days. The boat was locked in its slip, no child was reported missing, and Pete Garland had last been seen running a pre-departure check hours before he vanished; what happened between that sighting and the sneaker on the stern?

    In this episode, we tell what the recorded movements, witness timings, and subsequent search reveal about Pete Garland's last known actions and an unexpected rescue that complicates the timeline. How did a man who normally ran east-northeast end up west-southwest, and what connection does the sneaker have to the events that followed?

    Person: Pete Garland
    Date: July 11, 2014 (departure logged July 11; last confirmed sighting July 10 morning)
    Location: Kettmore harbor; west-southwest off Burnt Cove Island
    Event: Rescue of four people from a burning cabin cruiser
    Status: Missing

    - The sneaker found on the Hallie Jane was a child's blue size four with laces tied in a double-knot and still damp.
    - Pete Garland was fifty-three, a widower, solo operator of the Hallie Jane for eleven years and left his slip at 6:40 AM on Thursday.
    - Karen Andrews saw Pete on the Hallie Jane during a pre-departure check on the morning of July 10 and that was the last confirmed sighting before he vanished.
    - The slip fourteen gate latch logged a departure at 6:20 AM; Pete fueled the Hallie Jane on July 9 and left on July 11 without filing a float plan.
    - On the night of July 12, a fiberglass cabin cruiser off Burnt Cove Island caught fire; Pete was the only vessel nearby and rescued four people, during which a four-year-old girl lost a shoe.

  • The Morning Fire That Reignited Without a Footprint
    Jul 27 2026
    The Morning Fire That Reignited Without a Footprint

    A solitary flame appeared at 5:23 AM on June 15, 2019, burning in the exact fire ring a camper had doused seven-and-a-half hours earlier, with no footprints in the wet soil aside from hers. Who left three neatly split birch pieces arranged in a triangle over living coals - and why was there a notebook that recorded her before she knew she was being watched?

    In this episode, we tell the sequence of events recorded in field notes, eyewitness entries, and campsite observations that describe what happened at campsite eleven, and we follow the unanswered question: how did a fire relight with no trace of another person's approach?

    Person: Peggy Roberts
    Person: Robert Voss
    Date: June 15, 2019
    Location: campsite eleven near the Hatchett Creek corridor, northern lower peninsula, Michigan
    Document: nine-page notebook with entries ending June 14, signed R.V.

    - Peggy Roberts found an active flame at 5:23 AM after extinguishing the same ring at 9:47 PM the previous night.
    - Peggy checked her paracord anchor at 9:52 PM and again at dawn; the eastern anchor later showed an unexplained detail.
    - Rain occurred between midnight and 2:00 AM, leaving wet soil with only Peggy's boot prints around the site.
    - Robert Voss recorded at least three visits to campsite eleven between May and early June 2019 in a nine-page notebook.
    - Voss later reported crossing a knee-deep creek at approximately 3:00 AM carrying three freshly split birch sections.
