About this listen

Imagine a world where silence speaks louder than screams, where legends bleed into our everyday reality, and where the line between myth and history blurs. Tonight, we journey through chilling true-crime, cryptid encounters, haunted hotels, ancient rituals, and one unsettling disappearance. Episode 2 Lineup -Witnesses in Indifference- We start with the tragic story of Kitty Genovese and the bystander effect that sparked a revolution in emergency response. Discover how public outrage over one woman's murder led to the creation of 911 and forever changed the way we seek help. -Snarly Yow: The Forest Lurker Deep in the misty woods of Appalachia, campers whisper of a snarling shape with glowing eyes. We'll unpack eyewitness accounts, local folklore, and the theories that keep Snarly Yow stalking our collective nightmares. -Willard Hotel: Power, Politics & Poltergeists- From Lincoln's "White House of the West" to a stage for restless spirits, the Willard Hotel has seen presidents, prohibition-era smuggling, and ghostly appearances. We'll trace its historic milestones and eerie encounters in the grand lobby and secret hallways. -Crescent Hotel: The Queen of the Ozarks- Often called America's most haunted hotel, the Crescent boasts a bloody past of snake-oil doctors and tragic patients. Step inside its haunted halls as we reveal the resident ghosts and the chilling evidence caught on camera. -Turning of the Bones: Dancing with Ancestors- In a remote valley, an annual ritual exhumes, cleans, and re-entombs the bones of the departed. We explore the roots of this macabre celebration, its spiritual significance, and why it endures despite the chills it sends down your spine. -Missing: Victor Shoemaker Jr- Our finale brings us back to a modern mystery. Who was Victor Shoemaker Jr and why did he vanish without a trace? We'll sift through the last known sightings, family testimonies, and the haunting question: Could someone we know disappear that completely?
