In 2008, 24-year-old real estate agent Lindsay Buziak arrived at a vacant luxury home in Saanich, British Columbia, for what should have been a high-value property showing.

The buyers were a mysterious couple.

The phone number was fake.

The appointment felt wrong.

And within minutes of entering the house, Lindsay was dead.

In this episode of Dead Ends, we look at the full case of Lindsay Buziak: who she was, how the showing was arranged, why she felt uneasy before she went, the mystery couple seen at the house, the possible drug-bust theory, the question of whether she was specifically targeted, and why the case remains unsolved nearly two decades later.

Was Lindsay the victim of a professional hit, a personal vendetta, mistaken informant retaliation, or something even closer to home?

In this episode of Dead Ends, we look into one of the strangest and most unsettling unidentified person cases in Pennsylvania.

In December 2014, a severed human head was discovered in Economy Borough, western Pennsylvania. The woman had been embalmed. She had undergone post-mortem preparation. And despite forensic work, national attention, and years of investigation, she still has not been identified.

Who was she? How did her remains end up there? And why did parts of the case seem to point toward funeral preparation, cadaver handling, and a world most people never think about?

We break down the known facts of the Economy Borough Jane Doe case, the forensic details, the theories investigators explored, and the disturbing questions that still have no clear answer.

This podcast contains discussions of death, crime, and disturbing themes. Listener discretion is advised.

Four people. Four vanishings. No clear answers.

In this episode of Dead Ends, we look at four deeply unsettling disappearance cases that still leave huge questions behind: the Sodder Children, Brian Shaffer, Brandon Swanson, and Danny Filippidis.

From children who disappeared during a house fire, to a man who walked out of a bar and was never seen again, to a student who vanished after a late-night phone call, to a skier who somehow reappeared thousands of miles away — these are cases where the trail goes cold fast.

We break down the facts, the timelines, the strange details, and the theories people still argue about today.

Cases covered:
