	The Dual Life of Chicago’s Pogo the Clown 1970s The Painted Smile: The Dual Life of Chicago’s Pogo the Clown Pogo There is a specific type of cold that settles in the bones when you realize the person shaking your hand might be the last person you ever see. In the 1970s, Northwest Chicago lived within this chill, though the source remained hidden in plain sight. To the community, John Wayne Gacy was a "Model Citizen"—a successful contractor, a political precinct captain, and a man who spent his weekends entertaining sick children as Pogo the Clown. But beneath the floorboards of his ranch house at 8213 West Summerdale Avenue, the air was thick with a secret that defied human comprehension. The Victim The Stench of the Crawl Space Neighbors often complained of a "rancid, swampy"... Read More
	Travis Walton: The Abduction. November 5 - 1975 The Abduction of Travis Walton: Five Days in Darkness and a Chilling Encounter On the evening of November 5, 1975, six loggers working under contract in the Apache Sitgreaves National Forest in Arizona were finishing their shift.

What happened moments later would not only shatter the ordinary tranquility of their lives but also give rise to one of the most famous, debated, and bone-chilling cases of alleged alien abduction in history: that of Travis Walton. Travis Walton The Encounter in the Woods As darkness enveloped the forest, the men spotted an intense, unsettling light pulsing through the trees. Driven by curiosity, they approached and found themselves facing... Read More

May 2008: A Silent Farewell Joshua Maddux was only 18 years old when he vanished into the thin air of Woodland Park, Colorado. He was not a runaway, nor did he leave any goodbye messages. One day, he simply left home for what was supposed to be a short walk and never returned. For his loved ones, his absence turned into a torment, an inexplicable void that stretched on for 2,646 days.

	The Mysterious Disappearance of Maura Murray February 2004 Murray’s car was found abandoned on February 9, 2004 in Haverhill, New Hampshire by State Police responding to a call by a concerned bus driver. The bus driver came upon the crash, and a seemingly uninjured Murray told him she had called AAA (even though she hadn’t) and didn’t need his help. The driver left the accident and alerted police when he got home. It was a February day in 2004 when UMass Amherst student Maura Murray took a spontaneous trip toward the White Mountains. She told no one where she was going when she emptied her bank account, packed up her things, and hit the road. Just as quickly as her road trip started, it abruptly came to an end that evening when Murray crashed her car on a rural New Hampshire street. She has never been seen again.... Read More
	When I Get you Alone, I will cut You up into Bits 1980 On May 27, 1980, thirty-two-year-old secretary Dorothy Jane Scott dropped her young son Shanti off at her parents' house in Anaheim, California and went to a company meeting. While there, a coworker named Conrad Bostron complained of pain so severe that Dorothy offered to take him to the hospital with another coworker named Pam Head. The doctors found that he had been bitten by a black widow spider. At around 11pm that same night, the man started to recover and was discharged. Pam stayed with him while he filled out paperwork for insurance, while Dorothy went to fetch the car and bring it close to the entrance so her distraught coworker wouldn't have to exert effort and walk far. After a few minutes, Pam looked out the window and noticed Dorothy's car exit... Read More
