×We're swinging into December with a cavalcade of criminal Clauses this week, as Sean ticks off some notable examples of men who made the Naughty List while dress as Kris Kringle. Discussion of Santa-themed bank robbers brings us to the aptly-named Santa Claus Bank Robbery of 1927, which was a comedy of errors from the time Marshall Ratliff put on the big guy's suit right up until he was being tied up by a lynch mob. Then, we cap things off with the truly horrific Covina Massacre of 2008, when a desperate moron of an ex-husband donned a Santa suit to bring tragedy for the holidays. ________________________________________ Connect with us on social media: Facebook: www.facebook.com/aintitscary Twitter: @aintitscary Instagram: @aintitscary Patreon: www.patreon.com/aintitscary Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/aint-it-scary?ref_id=27696 ___________________________________________ Thank you to our sponsors: Neuro Gum - Get up to 30% off your order of Neuro Gum at tryneurogum.com/aintitscary!

We return to the autumn of 1885 this week where, in Austin, Texas, six victims - most of them Black domestic servants - have already been claimed by a killer who has successfully eluded police for nearly a year. On Christmas Eve, the midnight murderer's fury reaches its deadly peak. In the shocking conclusion to our two-parter on this case, Sean details the brutal "double event" that makes the end of the killing spree before delving into the details of the investigation...such as it was. With hundreds of arrests and zero convictions that stuck, police seemed to be at a dead end by 1886...and yet, the murders still stop cold. This episode, we try to figure out why. ________________________________________ Connect with us on social media: Facebook: www.facebook.com/aintitscary Twitter: @aintitscary Instagram: @aintitscary Patreon: www.patreon.com/aintitscary Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/aint-it-scary?ref_id=27696 ___________________________________________ Thank you to our sponsors: Neuro Gum - Get up to 30% off your order of Neuro Gum at tryneurogum.com/aintitscary!

Beginning in late 1884 and throughout 1885, Austin, the boomtown capitol of Texas, was terrorized and sensationalized by a series of horrific murders. One man, six women and a young girl would be claimed by the spree before the year was out. Most of the victims were Black, and many of them worked as domestic servants. Despite over 400 arrests, the crimes remain unsolved to this day... Officially, that is. In the first of a two-parter, Sean introduces the growing city of Austin in the late 19th century and takes us through the details of the Annihilator's early attacks. Footprints are analyzed, police are baffled, and a famed short story author makes a surprise cameo. Tune in next week for the final murders, the investigation, and the thrilling conclusion of our series! ________________________________________ Connect with us on social media: Facebook: www.facebook.com/aintitscary Twitter: @aintitscary Instagram: @aintitscary Patreon: www.patreon.com/aintitscary Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/aint-it-scary?ref_id=27696 ___________________________________________ Thank you to our sponsors: Neuro Gum - Get up to 30% off your order of Neuro Gum at tryneurogum.com/aintitscary!

To wrap up the spooky season here on the show (though, let's be honest, that never really ends around these parts) we're taking a trip to beautiful Vermont, where the skiing is top-notch, the leaf-peeping is absolutely beautiful, and the ghosts...well, the ghosts seem to be all around, too. On our journey through the Green Mountain State we'll meet the son of a former president who can't let go of the place he once called home...visit a small-town in and its tap-dancing ghost...try to escape the Bennington Triangle before it claims another mysterious disappearance...take a drive through Emily's Bridge and hope that our lovers, unlike her's, are true to their word...give some well-deserved belly rubs to one lifesaving good boy from beyond the grave...and more.

A topical storm washes over the podcast this week as we wade into the controversy and conspiracy around weather modification. As conversation online takes a turn for the unhinged in the wake of Hurricanes Helene and Milton, we take a quick look at the reality of changing the weather, Ain't It Scary style. Sean does his best with the science (and pseudoscience) as he takes us through attempts at weather control including Wilhelm Reich's orgone cannons and government cloud seeding programs like Skywater, Operation Popeye and Project Stormfury. It's...not as much of a Roland Emmerich movie as you might think. ________________________________________ Connect with us on social media: Facebook: www.facebook.com/aintitscary Twitter: @aintitscary Instagram: @aintitscary Patreon: www.patreon.com/aintitscary Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/aint-it-scary?ref_id=27696 ___________________________________________ Thank you to our sponsors: Neuro Gum - Get up to 30% off your order of Neuro Gum at tryneurogum.com/aintitscary!

Here on the show we love to get in the spooky season spirit by gathering around the virtual bonfire, throwing some sand into the flames, and getting into some famous urban legends. This year is no different - and now, along with our past explorations into the folklore surrounding tainted Halloween candy and the Bloody Mary ritual, we're adding three more legendary deep dives into the mix, all around the theme of "Teens in Trouble." First, we take a drive down Lovers Lane and try to avoid the Hook-Handed Man - but The Boyfriend's Death just might be inevitable... Next, we enroll in college to find out why the dorm life might not be the safest life with The Roommate (and also check out the creepy story of The Licked Hand)... And, finally, we return to a classic and a reminder of why babysitting was so dang stressful with the tale of The Babysitter and the Man Upstairs... Join us for frights, folklore and the surprising truths behind these classic American legends! ________________________________________ Connect with us on social media: Facebook: www.facebook.com/aintitscary Twitter: @aintitscary Instagram: @aintitscary Patreon: www.patreon.com/aintitscary Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/aint-it-scary?ref_id=27696 ___________________________________________ Thank you to our sponsors: Neuro Gum - Get up to 30% off your order of Neuro Gum at tryneurogum.com/aintitscary!

On June 18th, 2023, the underwater tourism company OceanGate launched its Titan submersible, which was heading down with five passengers - billionaire adventurer Hamish Harding, deep-sea explorer Paul-Henri Nargeolet, businessman Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman, and the CEO of OceanGate itself, Stockton Rush - to nearly 2.5 miles beneath the ocean's surface to visit the wreck of the legendary doomed ocean liner, Titanic . None of them would make it back alive. What has unfolded in the last year since the entire world waited with bated breath to see what happened to the Titan submersible is a story of hubris, particularly surrounding OceanGate's founder and the pilot of the sub, Stockton Rush. Descended from wealth and innovation, Rush believed that he knew better than just about anyone else in the deep-sea exploration industry when it came to the construction of submersibles...and would pay for that confidence with his life, along with those of 4 more innocent victims. Why did the Titan implode? Was this loss of life simply a tragic accident, or an absolutely avoidable incident? Much information has come out in the last year to try and answer these questions, leading up to and including these most recent hearings - and Carrie takes us through it all to try and find some answers. ________________________________________ Connect with us on social media: Facebook: www.facebook.com/aintitscary Twitter: @aintitscary Instagram: @aintitscary Patreon: www.patreon.com/aintitscary Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/aint-it-scary?ref_id=27696 ___________________________________________ Thank you to our sponsors: Neuro Gum - Get up to 30% off your order of Neuro Gum at tryneurogum.com/aintitscary!

Satanic Panic is back, baby, in the second of two parts on the Son of Sam murders! Sean takes us to the scenes of the last few shootings David Berkowitz committed in the summer of 1977, before covering Berkowitz's tumultuous transition to incarceration and eventual (inevitable?) cellblock conversion to evangelical Christianity. Oh, yes, and a talking dog. Looming like a conspiratorial shadow is the question: Did Berkowitz act alone? Or was the "Son of Sam" actually an interstate Satanic cabal bent on wreaking havoc? Sean has opinions. ________________________________________ Connect with us on social media: Facebook: www.facebook.com/aintitscary Twitter: @aintitscary Instagram: @aintitscary Patreon: www.patreon.com/aintitscary Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/aint-it-scary?ref_id=27696 ___________________________________________ Thank you to our sponsors: Neuro Gum - Get up to 30% off your order of Neuro Gum at tryneurogum.com/aintitscary!

Trigger warnings for death and disco this week as we had back to mid-1970s New York to explore the "Son of Sam" murders that left the city in panic for one frantic year. From July 1976 to July 1977, David Berkowitz embarked on a string of cold-blooded murders with a .44 caliber pistol, killing six innocent people and wounding another seven more. This week, Sean gives us a quick tour of the life and times of the sad-sack slayer before sketching out his crimes of '76 and '77, along with his pretty cringey bid to make a (literal) name for himself. ________________________________________ Connect with us on social media: Facebook: www.facebook.com/aintitscary Twitter: @aintitscary Instagram: @aintitscary Patreon: www.patreon.com/aintitscary Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/aint-it-scary?ref_id=27696 ___________________________________________ Thank you to our sponsors: Neuro Gum - Get up to 30% off your order of Neuro Gum at tryneurogum.com/aintitscary!

In late September 1982, seven residents of the Chicago metropolitan area collapsed mysteriously, dying mere hours or days later. It didn't take investigators long to realize all seven victims had taken Extra-Strength Tylenol just prior to their deaths. All of them had been murdered, by a stranger, with cyanide, which had tainted the Tylenol capsules as they sat on store shelves. Join us this week as Sean runs down the facts and the suspects in this technically-unsolved poisoning spree - and the horrifying copycat crimes that followed. ________________________________________ Connect with us on social media: Facebook: www.facebook.com/aintitscary Twitter: @aintitscary Instagram: @aintitscary Patreon: www.patreon.com/aintitscary Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/aint-it-scary?ref_id=27696 ___________________________________________ Thank you to our sponsors: Neuro Gum - Get up to 30% off your order of Neuro Gum at tryneurogum.com/aintitscary!

#HotMothSummer comes to a climactic end this week with the end of the first Mothman flap of Point Pleasant, West Virginia in 1966-1967 and the catastrophic collapse of the Silver Bridge, a tragedy in which 46 people lost their lives. Was the Mothman trying to warn those of the calamity to come...or merely a harbinger of their doom? And what was with all those UFOs, Men in Black, and of course, Indrid Cold? We try to get to the bottom of a "Unifying Theory of Mothman", and along the way also explore other winged humanoid sightings in Chernobyl directly before the infamous nuclear meltdown, and in Chicago, most famously around 2017 when 55 witnesses came forward to report spotting a Mothman creature flying over the metropolis and the surrounding areas. Was Mothman a cryptid? An alien? A government experiment? A bigass bird? Or simply another case of mass hysteria? Carrie and Sean attempt to find the answers. ________________________________________ Connect with us on social media: Facebook: www.facebook.com/aintitscary Twitter: @aintitscary Instagram: @aintitscary Patreon: www.patreon.com/aintitscary Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/aint-it-scary?ref_id=27696 ___________________________________________ Thank you to our sponsors: Neuro Gum - Get up to 30% off your order of Neuro Gum at tryneurogum.com/aintitscary!

In the interest of our sanity, we kept it fairly loose this week with a late catch-up featuring Sean & Carrie gathering round the spooky campfire and talking their recently-consumed horror content ( Fallout the TV show, a cameo by our love of The Traitors , Immaculate and 'Salem's Lot ), discussed some ways we're already getting in the Halloweeny mood (as if we weren't year-round), some new Ancient Rome lore Sean's picked up, who in the Ain't it Scary? recent archives Carrie would FMK (F*ck, Marry, Kill) and a series of Would You Rather?s for Sean, and a multi-part news segment touching on baseball star Mookie Betts' fear of the paranormal, a possible answer to the mysterious WOW! Signal and a recent bit of evidence that's been captured in the hunt for the Loch Ness Monster. ________________________________________ Connect with us on social media: Facebook: www.facebook.com/aintitscary Twitter: @aintitscary Instagram: @aintitscary Patreon: www.patreon.com/aintitscary Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/aint-it-scary?ref_id=27696 ___________________________________________ Thank you to our sponsors: Neuro Gum - Get up to 30% off your order of Neuro Gum at tryneurogum.com/aintitscary!

This week, we return to Point Pleasant for even more high strangeness as the Men in Black, a fleet of UFOs, and author John Keel descend on the town and get mixed up in a series of bizarre encounters including a little man with a ballpoint pen obsession, Indrid Cold and his posse of Lanulans (including our fave, Kletaw) and one very (and rightfully) pissed-off Native American Chief by the name of Cornstalk. Next time, we'll attempt to wrap up this crazy tale with the rest of the unbelievable events of 1967, culminating in a tragedy that still reverberates through the town of Point Pleasant to this day. ________________________________________ Connect with us on social media: Facebook: www.facebook.com/aintitscary Twitter: @aintitscary Instagram: @aintitscary Patreon: www.patreon.com/aintitscary Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/aint-it-scary?ref_id=27696 ___________________________________________ Thank you to our sponsors: Neuro Gum - Get up to 30% off your order of Neuro Gum at tryneurogum.com/aintitscary!
