Terrifying stuff, yet i find myself constantly checking thread for updates

Solid read. That 1st one is pretty fucked up.

The Hippy one sounds pretty conclusive tho imo, dudes got burnt up by the lightening. Is normal.


And I read the link to the German farm murders in the 20's.. meh, sounds like they caught the guy but let him go due to lack of evidence.


For me, HH Holmes (potentially 1st serial killer in America's history and some believe he could have been Jack the Ripper as well):

For anyone in America, they have a documentary on Netflix about H.H. Holmes, and it's really good. Ridiculously scary stuff.

If its the one I'm thinking of, yeah, its pretty good. There was a doc on him I saw that puts together a lot of things between he and jack the Ripper too. Really really interesting.

Read several articles linked here, now watching Megan is missing. Keep em coming.

I tried to watch "Megan Is Missing" but it was taking too long to develop the story. I couldn't get past the first 1/2 hour.

It's bad until the last 20 mins or so. But the last 20 are a doozy...

I remember when this film was discussed here in Mayberry few months maybe a year ago. Almost everybody except for parents with teenage kids dislike this show and felt it was pretty bad.

I'm the type that appreciate slow burn movies and VERY rarely fast forward movies. But this particular one just takes the cakes for me, I fast forward to the end after 20mins or so. I'm not impressed with the ending as well.

I thought the ending was a huge payoff for the boring build up that seemed to drag on and on and on and on andonandonandonandonandon... Dat barrel

Here is one for you guys.

The story of true crime writer, Vlado Taneski. He was a journalist/crime writer who lived in Macedonia. Its a rather small place bordering Greece.

Here is a pic of Vlado.

Vlado had strict parents growing up, his father committed suicide in 1990, his first wife left him and took his kids, and then his mother died a short time later.

Vlado Taneski lived in Kicevo which you can see on the map above. When Vlado was 55, a serial killer was loose in his home town of Kicevo, Macedonia. The locals were shocked, it was the first of its kind for them. Vlado, being a crime writer, had insight into the murders and the people seemed hungry for his reports on the killer. Three women were killed all between the ages of 56 and 65, all were cleaning ladies, the same job his mother held, and they were all in the same age group as his mother when she died. The victims were beaten, raped, strangled with phone cords, and butchered.

Vlado, being the towns crime reporter would go to the families of the victims and interview them for the local newspaper. Vlado was also there in the courtroom when 4 men were convicted for the death of one of the women. Things started to unravel though when the police noticed that there were details in Vlado's news articles that were not released to the public. Specifically, that the victims were strangled with a phone cord.

The police made a profile of the killer, they also had the killer's DNA, and out of the 8000 men that lived in Kicevo, narrowed it down to 10 people of interest. Vlado Taneski was one of the 10. The local police made a fake announcement that they had captured the killer and Vlado ran to the station to write another article for the newspaper. He was arrested when he arrived.

The next morning they found him drowned in a bucket of water. Pic below. The police listed it as a suicide but the locals never believed that story.

Here is an article about Vlado if you want additional details.

Very interesting. Seems like Vlado got too close to the killer and was offed, I cant see anyway someone could drown themselves in a bucket of water, seems an odd way to go and surely your reflexes would keep pulling you back? I just don't buy that as suicide though it's obviously suspect that he had info that wasn't publicly released, also.

Bruh.....he was the killer.

Isn't all the evidence pointing to Vlado as the killer? It wouldn't be the first time someone's died suspiciously in police custody.

That's crazy. Yeah it's not like he just put his head in a bucket of water and drown himself. I wonder what the evidence was like for those poor guys that got put to death over it. Shitty situation.

There was that one father in Austria or something like that who built this dungeon in his basement. He kidnaps his teenage daughter and throws her in it. When people ask about her, he tells them she ran off to some Christian cult or sect. He would write fake letters from her to home as proof that she was alive and living with the cult. No one really questioned it and the dungeon was so fool proof that they couldn't hear anything that went on down there.

He basically used her as his sex slave and fathered I believe 7 children with her. One of which died a few days after birth and he burned the body on the property. Some kids we're adopted. The other 3 kids got to live in the house. The wife, who must be the most oblivious person ever, believed him when he said all 3 children had been abandoned on the property.

He kept her down there for 24 years until one of the daughters got sick. He agreed to let her take her to the hospital for treatment and it was the first time she saw the outside world in 24 years. At the hospital, officials became suspicious about the situation and started to question her. She refused to tell them what was going on until they promised her she would never have to see her father again. At that point she spilled the beans on the whole thing. He ended up getting convicted and will spend the rest of his life in prison.

The craziest part is he would kill a victim, then go an interview the family about the murder...

As suggested by others in this thread I fast forwarded Megan Is Missing to the final half hour of the film. Very, very disturbing. It sickens me that these type of people are out there. I don't know if I've ever seen anything more disturbing than the last 20 minutes of this film (especially that barrel).
