When Florida businessman James Harrison disappeared in 1958 and his blood-soaked car was found abandoned, serial killer Roy Olson confessed to murdering him and police arrested accomplice James Leach—until three months later when Harrison walked into an Arizona police station alive, with no memory of where he'd been, leaving authorities with an unsolvable puzzle of whose blood was in the car and where Harrison spent those missing months.
IN THIS EPISODE: What do you get when you mix auto theft, disappearances, amnesia, murder, and far too many tattoos? You get one of the craziest true crime cases you’ll ever hear. It’s the disappearance and apparent murder of James Eugene Harrison, but just wait for the twist. (The Man Who Wasn’t Murdered) *** The first witch trial in the Americas took place in 1626 – and I’ll tell you the story of how poor Joane Wright came to be accused, and what the verdict came down as. (America’s First Witch) *** In 1938, 34-year-old Alma Fielding reported objects mysteriously flying around her home. In 2017, Kate Summerscale, author of the true crime classic “The Suspicions of Mr Whicher”, set out to investigate the unexplained case of the Croydon poltergeist. (The Housewife, The Ghost Hunter, And The Croydon Poltergeist) *** When you hear a knocking in the closet, or footsteps in the attic. When you hear a door to the basement creak open, or a plate crash to the floor in the middle of the night… is it a ghost? An intruder? Or could you be dealing with a darkling? (The Dark Darklings)
