Happy TWO YEARS to us!!! In this very special anniversary episode (and Katy's last before she takes her maternity leave), the girls cover a spooky story, an unsolved mystery, and a piece of local lore, all wrapped up into one chilling tale! Hannah tells Katy about the horrific octuple murder in Villisca, Iowa in 1912. The girls discuss the invention of the Oreo, when blood spatter evidence became a thing, why your retina does not work like a camera, and much much more, all while eating more cake.
Find your own way to celebrate and thank you for joining us these last two years! We've had a blast and can't wait for the next two!
