I had a nightmare last night.

I was a reporter.

But I think the biggest difference is that there's this extended website stuff which you have to explore to get more answers.

What's extra spooky are ones that actually happened. Like this creepy shit: No one has any idea who "Joanna Lopez" actually was, but her missing person notice (far removed from any other the station aired, due to its low-quality image, and no additional information) stayed on the channel's screen for 10 hours. Below is the short, second airing from years later.

Two infants were buried some 2,100 years ago wearing “helmets” made from the skulls of other children, archaeologists have discovered.

The remains of the two infants were found with nine other burials at a site called Salango, on the coast of central Ecuador. The archaeologists who excavated the burials between 2014 and 2016 recently published the details of their findings in the journal Latin American Antiquity.

The team says this is the only known case in which children’s skulls were used as helmets for infants being buried. The scientists don’t know what killed the infants and children.

The helmets were placed tightly over the infants’ heads, the archaeologists found. It’s likely that the older children’s skulls still had flesh on them when they were turned into helmets, because without flesh, the helmets likely would not have held together, the archaeologists noted.

One Last Dive

In the 1860s there was a boy, Johnny Morehouse, the youngest son of John and Mory, who lived with them in the back of his father’s shoe repair shop. One day the 5 year old was playing near his home by the edge of the Miami & Erie Canal.

Johnny accidentally fell into the canal water. His dog, playing by him, jumped into the water and tried to save him. He pulled the boy out, but not in time to save his life. Johnny drowned and was buried in Woodland Cemetery. Legend has it that, several days after the burial, the dog appeared next to the Johnny’s grave staying by it morning, noon, and night. Visitors to the cemetery saw him and began to worry about his health.

Riverside

Gates of Janus by Ian Brady, Peter Sotos, Colin Wilson

“Easily one of the creepiest books ever written. Convicted Moors Murderer Ian Brady justifies serial murders and critiques his peers. This guy murdered five children! A valuable document of narcissistic psychopathology.” - Chan

The Alienist by Caleb Carr

“If The Silence of the Lambs took a trip in the wayback machine, this might be the result. Historical fiction with a true crime feel, this atmospheric novel will appeal to fans of both.” - Tove

Starvation Heights by Gregg Olsen

“A fascinating turn-of-the-century story of medical malpractice and murder. If you liked The Alienist, you’ll find Starvation Heights all the more gripping because this story is true.” - Michael Connelly

People Who Eat Darkness  by Richard Lloyd Parry

“Parry, as Asia chief of the Times of London, is uniquely placed to shed light on the Japanese phenomenon of the hostess club and the serial rapes and murders of young western women by wealthy, difficult to catch sexual deviants.” - Chan

The Man from the Train by Bill James, Rachel McCarthy James

“Creepy, cozy, brilliant, and sincere, The Man From the Train solves the century-old slaying of families across America by a train-hopping, axe-wielding deviant. This is unputdownable!” - McKenzie W.

See What I Have Done by Sarah Schmidt

“Sprinkled with hatchet misadventures, potential poisonings and odd fascinations with pears and fingernail clippings, Schmidt’s storytelling is mind-blowingly atmospheric and unsettling.” - Shelf Awareness

Small Sacrifices  by Ann Rule

“If you were of TV-watching age in the 80s, you probably remember Diane Downs. Hers was one of the most bizarre, unsettling, and talked about trials in Oregon history, and Ann Rule’s account of it is riveting stuff.” - Tove

The Skeleton Crew by Deborah Halber

The Poisoner’s Handbook by Deborah Blum

"New York City’s Jazz Age bubbled under the surface with sadistic criminals who went day-to-day undetected. With the advent of the Periodic Table, our notions of criminal investigations were forever changed. This book does an excellent job taking you through the true story of forensic science and toxicology, and its experimental origins in solving the unsolvable.”

Death’s Acre by William Bass and Jon Jefferson

“There’s probably something wrong with me, but I thoroughly enjoyed it.” - Mary Roach

“THIS is one of my favorite books of all time. Poet, critic, and creative writer Maggie Nelson feels a connection to her aunt Jane, whom she never met. Jane’s unsolved murder is reopened for investigation 50 years later due to new DNA evidence. Nelson documents the trial through its confounding twists and turns, all the while begging the reader to reflect on larger implications of sexism, media and violence in our society.”

I’ll Be Gone in the Dark by Michelle McNamara

“A gripping, keep-you-up-all-night, real-life whodunit; a testament to McNamara’s inimitable resolve; and an extraordinary parting gift from a talented writer.” - Tove

My Friend Dahmer by Derf Backderf

“Before Jeffrey Dahmer was a serial murderer who kept human heads in his freezer he was a weird, sad kid. Graphic novelist Backderf, a former classmate of Dahmer, gifts us a portrait of the cannibal as a young man.” - Chan

Stranger Beside Me by Ann Rule

“Imagine you are a budding true crime writer working at a suicide hotline to make ends meet when it gradually dawns on you that the nice, handsome guy who works next to you might be a prolific serial killer named Ted Bundy.” - Chan

The Good Nurse by Charles Graeber

“Put this one on the shelf next to Ann Rule’s classic about Ted Bundy, The Stranger Beside Me. It’s that good.” - Entertainment Weekly

Columbine by Dave Cullen

“This school shooting shocked America when it occurred almost twenty years ago. Who would have been cynical enough to guess that mass shootings would be an almost daily occurrence in 21st Century U.S.A.?” - Chan

Perfect Murder Perfect Town by Lawrence Schiller

“A thoroughly researched, detailed report that takes you moment by moment through one of the most complex, chilling investigations of all time.”

Cases That Haunt Us by John E Douglas

If you liked the Netflix series Mindhunter, then try The Cases That Haunt Us by John Douglas (the inspiration for Agent Holden Ford) & Mark Olshaker.

Psycho by Robert Bloch

Anne Perry & the Murder of the Century by Peter Graham

“The great Peter Jackson/Kate Winslet film Heavenly Creatures is based on this true story of infatuation and matricide. The murderess, Juliet, eventually became the mystery novelist Anne Perry.” - Chan

“When the author was 12 her single mother was murdered in their home in rural Maine. After the Eclipse is a memoir of Sarah’s exploration of not only her mother’s death, but her life. Perry brings the reader into her personal losses and triumphs during her coming of age and in turn, tells her mother’s life story with compassion and clarity. This book is impossible to put down.”

The Black Dahlia Files by Donald H Wolfe

“Of all the books written about this still unsolved crime, this one, by Donald Wolfe who had fresh access to LAPD files, comes closest to the heart of this fascinating and disturbing crime.” - Chan

The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson

“Serial killer Dr. H. H. Holmes is long dead, but Larson’s evocative storytelling had me peeking into closets and burrowing under the covers as I read, late into the night.” - Rhianna

Who Killed These Girls by Beverly Lowry

“Gripping, moving, and as good as any depiction of a murder case since In Cold Blood… This transcends the genre. Brilliant.” - Ann Patchett

In Cold Blood by Truman Capote

“Capote’s masterpiece is the standard by which every other work of true crime reportage must be judged. But did he break faith with his "friends” the killers to get his great scoop? You decide!“ - Chan

Helter Skelter by Vincent Bugliosi and Curt Gentry

"If you liked law & order procedurals, "hippie music,” and cult classics, then try Helter Skelter by Vincent Bugliosi.
