The fourth and final episode of Spooky Season covers a shocking crime from February 16, 1981, when 19-year-old Arne Johnson stabbed his landlord and friend Alan Bono to death at a dog kennel in Brookfield, Connecticut...the town's first homicide in nearly two centuries. When the case went to trial, Johnson's attorney made legal history by arguing his client was not guilty by reason of demonic possession, a defense no American court had ever considered. Behind the headline was a family divided: an 11-year-old boy whose frightening episodes drew the famous paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren, and whose brothers still disagree about what really happened.If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Twisted Tales to never miss a case!

Our third episode of Spooky Season takes you back to January 1897, when twenty-something Zona Heaster Shue was found dead at the bottom of her staircase in Greenbrier County, West Virginia...her husband's grief just a little too theatrical, her neck just a little too covered. When her mother began receiving nightly visits from Zona's ghost, she brought what she'd been told straight to the prosecutor, setting in motion the only known case in American legal history where a ghost's testimony helped convict a murderer.If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Twisted Tales to never miss a case!

Episode two of Spooky Season covers a case from April 1943, when four boys trespassing in Hagley Wood, Worcestershire, discovered a woman's skeleton stuffed inside a hollow wych elm...her identity unknown, her killer never caught. The cloth forced into her mouth confirmed murder, but 3,000 missing-persons reports and a nationwide dental search led nowhere. In the silence, theories multiplied: a witchcraft ritual, a Nazi spy, and an ordinary woman history was ready to forget.If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Twisted Tales to never miss a case!

Welcome to the first episode of Crime House's latest four-part limited series: Spooky Season. In the winter of 1803, the village of Hammersmith was convinced a ghost was stalking its darkened lanes... and armed men took to the streets to stop it. On January 3rd, 1804, excise officer Francis Smith shot and killed Thomas Millwood, an innocent plasterer whose white work clothes made him look exactly like the phantom the village feared. The case landed in London's Old Bailey with a question English law struggled to answer for the next two centuries: can a sincere but deadly mistake constitute murder?If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Twisted Tales to never miss a case!

In 2015, a writer named C.K. Walker posted a story to Reddit's r/nosleep forum about a boy named Sam who moves to a perfect small town in the Ozark Mountains... and slowly realizes the friendly neighbors and idyllic streets are built on decades of abduction, forced labor, and silence.

In 2010, writer Matt Dymerski published a creepypasta called Psychosis: a journal written by a programmer slowly convinced that everyone he knows has been replaced by something only pretending to be them. Trapped in a windowless basement apartment, cut off from direct human contact, he begins to notice that nothing reaches him except through screens, speakers, and wires. The deeper he investigates, the more the line between paranoia and survival dissolves.Head over to our Twisted Tales YouTube channel to WATCH this episode: https://www.youtube.com/@watchtwistedtales If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Twisted Tales to never miss a case!

In 2009, a web cartoonist named Kris Straub published a short story formatted as an internet forum thread, in which a group of strangers collectively reconstruct a disturbing children's TV show called Candle Cove. One that, by the final post, they realize was never actually broadcast. The story weaponizes nostalgia and the science of false memory, turning the warmest corner of childhood into something genuinely unsettling. It then did something no other creepypasta had done: it escaped into the real world and became the exact myth it was imitating.Head over to our Twisted Tales YouTube channel to WATCH this episode: https://www.youtube.com/@crimehousestudiosIf you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Twisted Tales to never miss a case!

In 1976, Soviet cosmonaut Boris Volynov endured a catastrophic solo stint aboard the Salyut 5 space station: contaminated air, a crumbling support system, and a rescue that nearly ended in disaster. The creepypasta "The Devil's Cosmonaut" takes that real mission and asks one quiet question: what if it wasn't just the air?

In 1981, a plain black arcade cabinet appeared overnight in a Portland, Oregon arcade. No logo, no artwork, just a name glowing in pale green letters: Polybius. Players reported migraines, memory loss, and night terrors, and mysterious men in suits came to collect data from the machine before it vanished without a trace. The story stayed buried for nineteen years until a single internet post turned it into one of gaming's most enduring urban legends.Head over to our Twisted Tales YouTube channel to WATCH this episode: https://www.youtube.com/@crimehousestudiosJoin Crime House+ to binge a special limited series on Murder: True Crime Stories for America’s 250th: The Crimes That Built America.

In 2018, an anonymous user posted a photograph of an empty yellow room on 4chan — no caption, no story, no name. A year later, two paragraphs turned that image into one of the most elaborate horror mythologies the internet has ever produced.
