About this listen
In 1873, a quiet island off the coast of Maine became the setting for a crime that still unsettles historians more than a century later.
What happened on Smuttynose Island was shaped by isolation, fear, and the limits of certainty in a place where help was slow to arrive and answers were hard to come by. A violent night, a survivor’s account, and a rushed search for justice left behind questions that were never fully resolved.
In this episode of History’s Dark Corners, we travel to the Isles of Shoals to explore the Smuttynose Murders — and the uneasy space between truth, belief, and verdict.
Some stories don’t end cleanly. Some questions refuse to stay buried.
🎙️ History’s Dark Corners — America’s most unsettling stories, one state at a time.
