IN THIS EPISODE: What do you get when you mix auto theft, disappearances, amnesia, murder, and far too many tattoos? You get one of the craziest true crime cases you\u2019ll ever hear. It\u2019s the disappearance and apparent murder of James Eugene Harrison, but just wait for the twist. (The Man Who Wasn\u2019t Murdered) *** The first witch trial in the Americas took place in 1626 \u2013 and I\u2019ll tell you the story of how poor Joane Wright came to be accused, and what the verdict came down as. (America\u2019s First Witch) *** In 1938, 34-year-old Alma Fielding reported objects mysteriously flying around her home. In 2017, Kate Summerscale, author of the true crime classic \u201cThe Suspicions of Mr Whicher\u201d, set out to investigate the unexplained case of the Croydon poltergeist. (The Housewife, The Ghost Hunter, And The Croydon Poltergeist) *** When you hear a knocking in the closet, or footsteps in the attic. When you hear a door to the basement creak open, or a plate crash to the floor in the middle of the night\u2026 is it a ghost? An intruder? Or could you be dealing with a darkling? (The Dark Darklings) *** (Originally aired November 16, 2020)
