  • The Tallow Man: The Werewolf of Allariz

    The Tallow Man: The Werewolf of Allariz
    Oct 21 2026
    Settle in, friends, because this week we're heading into the misty mountains of 1800s Spain for a werewolf story... that really happened. In a little village in Galicia, a gentle little shopkeeper offered to walk the local women and their children over the mountains to good jobs up north. One by one, they went with him. One by one, he came home alone, with good news and happy letters. Then a brother noticed what the shopkeeper was using to cut his bread. What followed was a chance sighting hundreds of miles from home, a confession no Spanish court had ever heard before, a mysterious hypnotist, a Queen who stepped in, and a mystery about the shopkeeper's fate that took more than 150 years to solve. 🖤 FOLLOW PRETTY WICKED New episodes every Wednesday.

  • The Babysitter Ad: The First Craigslist Killer

    The Babysitter Ad: The First Craigslist Killer
    Oct 14 2026
    Settle in, friends, because today's story starts with something that should have been completely ordinary: responding to a babysitting ad. In October 2007, Katherine Ann Olson met a mom named Amy in Savage, Minnesota. Amy needed someone to watch her 5-year-old, and Katherine said yes. She told her roommate Amy seemed a little strange. She went anyway. The next morning, a purse turned up in a park trash can, and a suburban police department started pulling on a thread that led somewhere nobody in Minnesota was ready for. This is the story of who Katherine really was, who was actually behind those emails, and how her case gave the internet a brand new and terrible nickname. 🖤 FOLLOW PRETTY WICKED New episodes every Wednesday.

  • Sunday Best: Blood and Betrayal

    Sunday Best: Blood and Betrayal
    Aug 26 2026
    They say Friday the 13th is unlucky for a reason. Well, on one Friday the 13th back in 1980, in a quiet Texas suburb where everybody goes to the same church and everybody knows everybody's business, that superstition came true in the worst way. Because that morning, a young mom and Sunday school teacher was found dead in her own home, and nobody could make sense of it. She had the husband, the two girls, the whole life. So who would do this? Well, friends, the answer had been sitting in the next pew the whole time. This week, a friendship, a secret, and one summer morning that turned a quiet Texas town upside down.
