What happens when you combine the darkest corners of the internet with two women who probably should know better than to go looking for scary stories before bed? This week on Spine-Chilling Chats, Ang is diving into Reddit to uncover some of the scariest true stories people claim to have experienced. From unsettling encounters and unexplained happenings to stories that will have you checking the locks twice, these tales prove that sometimes the creepiest stories aren't found in horror movies, they're posted by strangers on the internet. Are these stories completely true? That's up for debate. But some of them are definitely creepy enough to make us wonder... what if they're real? So grab your headphones, turn off the lights (if you dare), and settle in as we dig through Reddit's darkest corners for stories that will leave you questioning what might be lurking just beyond the screen. Have you ever experienced something you couldn't explain? Tell us about it, we may just feature your story in a future episode!

Hey Spooks! We’re continuing our journey through the state of Kansas, and this week, Manda is taking us back to the 1870s to uncover the dark and twisted story of one of America’s most infamous murderous families: The Bloody Benders. Hidden away in Labette County, Kansas, the Bender family ran a small roadside inn where weary travelers could stop for a meal, a bed, and a little rest. But behind the walls of their home, something far more sinister was taking place. As travelers began disappearing along the Osage Trail, rumors and suspicions started to spread. When the truth finally began to surface, the Benders became the center of a horrifying tale involving murder, deception, and a family whose secrets would shock an entire community. Join Manda as she digs into the history of the Bloody Benders, the murders that made them infamous, and the mystery surrounding what happened to this terrifying family. What really went on inside the Bender home? And did the Bloody Benders truly get away with it? **Trigger Warning: This episode includes discussions of murder, including the murder of a child, sexual assault, and incest.

This week, Ang sits down with Manda to tell her all about the disturbing and twisted story of John Edward Robinson, a man whose crimes, manipulation, and deception would leave a horrifying trail of victims across Kansas and beyond. Known for presenting himself as an ordinary, trustworthy man, Robinson was anything but. As Ang digs deeper into his life, Manda learns how his web of lies and manipulation allowed him to prey on vulnerable women, and how investigators eventually began uncovering the horrifying truth hiding beneath the surface. From deception and financial schemes to murder, this is a case that will leave you questioning just how well we can ever truly know the people around us. So grab your headphones, Spooks, because Kansas Month is far from over, and this week's story is one you won't want to miss.

After a short sabbatical in August to rest, regroup, and get our lives back in order, the girls are officially BACK! And what better way to return than by kicking off a brand-new state? September brings us to Kansas, a state that immediately makes us think of ruby slippers, flying monkeys, and one very famous yellow brick road. But behind the colorful world of The Wizard of Oz lies a much darker and more twisted history than you might expect. In our first episode back, Manda pulls back the curtain and takes us beyond the magic of Oz to uncover the dark tragedies, disturbing stories, and heartbreaking circumstances surrounding the beloved classic. Because sometimes, there's no place like home... but there might be a whole lot of darkness hiding behind the curtain. So grab your ruby slippers and follow us down the yellow brick road, but don't expect this journey to end in Kansas quite the way you remember. ⚠️ Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussions of sexual assault, drug use, and suicide. Please take care of yourselves while listening and skip this episode if these topics may be difficult for you.

This week, Ang wraps up our journey through Iowa with a truly senseless crime, The Gitchie Manitou Murders. What began as a carefree night of camping and spending time with friends at the secluded Gitchie Manitou State Preserve quickly turned into an unimaginable nightmare. In November 1973, five teenagers entered the woods together... but only one would make it out alive. The shocking brutality of the attack, the courage of the lone survivor, and the disturbing details that followed would forever change the quiet tri-state community. Join Ang as she unravels the heartbreaking timeline of the murders, the investigation that brought the killers to justice, and the lasting impact this tragedy continues to have more than 50 years later. This is a heartbreaking case filled with unimaginable cruelty but also an incredible story of survival, resilience, and the strength it took to face the unthinkable. ⚠️ Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussions of violence, murder, sexual assault, including crimes against children, and other disturbing details. Listener discretion is strongly advised.

In this episode, Manda takes us into the dark and spooky side of Iowa with two chilling stories that blur the line between tragedy and the paranormal. First, we travel back to 1912 and the infamous Villisca Axe Murders, where eight people, including six children, were brutally murdered in their sleep. More than a century later, many believe the spirits of those who died may still remain within the walls of the Villisca Axe Murder House. Then, Manda takes us to Farrar Elementary School, a former school building with a dark history and a reputation for some truly unsettling paranormal activity. From strange voices and unexplained encounters to spirits that may still linger within its halls, Farrar Elementary has become one of Iowa's most infamous haunted locations. ⚠️ Trigger Warning: This episode includes discussions of murder, violence, and the murder of children. Please take care while listening. Turn down the lights, settle in, and join us for another spine-chilling journey into the unknown.
