The Mourning Hour
"The Mourning Hour" is a true crime / paranormal podcast hosted by Texas-based best friends Allison Monroe and Katie Floyd. Each week they meet to chat crime, cryptids, and ghosts galore with a little dose of humor to cut the creepy. Two peas in one morbid pod, these best friends have set out to uncover the horrors of the world together (both real and imaginary) and report what they find... with some flair.

Episode 11: The Murder of Shanda Sharer
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
On January 11, 1992, 12-year-old Shanda Sharer was brutally tortured and murdered by four teenage girls in small-town Indiana, but the backstory of the girls and their reasonings for killing Shanda is what aids in this case being so horrifying. Not gonna sugarcoat it, Allison and Katie get real pissed and real sad in this one.
