The Discovery

In 2002, a very unlikely witness came forward to give the Everett Washington police some shocking information about a missing person.

The Devil Waits in the Bedroom (PODCAST EXCLUSIVE EPISODE)

In 1984, a 19 year old hardware store employee named Jim, was walking from one end of the store to the other, when he noticed something odd in one of the aisels. He stared at it for a second, not really sure what to make of it, before turning around and walking back where he came from, to start telling staff and customers to evacuate. Little did Jim know, in a matter of seconds, that building was going to turn into a living hell.

Don't Leave the Trail

One evening in February of 1992, a newly married man who lived in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood in Minnesota returned home from work. When he walked inside, he saw his young son was working on some homework at the table, and his 8-month-old baby daughter was crying in her playpen, but the man's wife was nowhere to be found. He asked his son if he had seen his mother, and the boy said "no." So, the husband began walking around the house looking for his wife and calling out to her. But he couldn't find her, and she never called back. Eventually, during his search, the man reached the master bedroom. And when he opened the door and saw what was inside, he fell to his knees in horror. Moments later, the police were screaming to his residence, sirens blaring.

Look Again (PODCAST EXCLUSIVE EPISODE)

In the fall of 1995, firefighters in Pleasant Garden, North Carolina responded to a call about a fire in a suburban neighborhood. When they got there, they managed to mostly put out the intense flames. At which point, they formed a line in the first-floor hallway and began moving down; looking for anyone trapped inside any of the adjacent rooms. But before they reached the end of the hallway, the floor suddenly gave out from underneath them, sending the lead firefighter down into a hidden crawlspace four feet below. The man was unhurt from the fall, but when he tried to stand up to climb out again, he noticed that there was something horrifying in that crawl space with him. The discovery in the crawl space would send shockwaves through a town that, until that moment, had been best known for its churches and championship little league baseball teams.
