Away in a Hangar: A Christmas Special
This short Christmas special tells the story of a Pennsylvania Santa Claus (and his chauffeur) who definitely ended up on the naughty list in 1983. Taking listeners from the top of the tallest skyscraper in Pittsburgh to a backwoods hangar in West Virginia, this episode throws our own rules to the wind with a solved case, zero interviews, and way too much humor.Sarah & Geoff's book about the WVU Coed Murders(available on Amazon) Kendall's Appalachian Motorcycling Travel Channel(@motoappalachiadiscovery on YouTube) Kromatic Media
In one month, the killers of Julie Williams, Lollie Winans and at least two victims of the Colonial Parkway murders are identified. Bill Thomas joins us to discuss the details, and why there are still so many questions unanswered. Meanwhile the grave of Harry Spitz, which inexplicably exploded in 1975, has its headstone stolen by thieves. A Morgantown resident and Appalachian Mysteria producer step up to set things right.Sarah & Geoff's book about the WVU Coed Murders(available on Amazon) Kendall's Appalachian Motorcycling Travel Channel(@motoappalachiadiscovery on YouTube) Kromatic Media

The Sunnyside Rapist, Part 2 | Season 4: Listener Suggestions, Ep 6
In the second of this 2-part series, Jack Edward Hawkins is put on trial without physical evidence for three assaults committed by the Sunnyside rapist, but prosecutors refuse to claim he is a suspect in any others. Neighbors of the Hawkins family come forward to describe their experience with Jack and his children. As Hawkins’ involvement in a 1975 incident comes to light, the Mysteria team learns that a new West Virginia law now makes it impossible to learn details about any sexual assault cases. And a team of New Zealand researchers is hired by the defense to explain the problems with the eyewitness testimony used against Hawkins.Sarah & Geoff's book about the WVU Coed Murders(available on Amazon) Kendall's Appalachian Motorcycling Travel Channel(@motoappalachiadiscovery on YouTube) Kromatic Media
