Beskrivelse

A young family heads into the Oregon wilderness for a Labor Day camping trip—and never comes home. When searchers arrive at their campsite, everything appears untouched: clothes neatly folded, a wallet left behind… and a carton of milk still sitting on the picnic table. Richard and Belinda Cowden, their five-year-old son David, and five-month-old baby Melissa have vanished. Seven months later, the horrifying truth is discovered deep in the Siskiyou Mountains. In this episode, we investigate one of the Pacific Northwest’s most haunting unsolved mysteries: the Cowden Family Murders. What happened in those woods? And who got away with killing an entire family?

Ep. 14 The Madness of Two

Two sisters. One shared terror. A motorway filled with speeding cars. A warning that “they’re going to steal your organs.” And a stranger whose simple act of kindness would cost him his life. The story of Sabina and Ursula Eriksson isn’t just one of true crime—it’s one of the most disturbing psychological mysteries ever recorded. Was this a rare case of shared madness, an unexplained psychotic break, or something investigators still don’t understand? This week on Twisted Mysteries, we follow the Eriksson twins from their quiet lives in Sweden to the terrifying events of May 2008, uncovering a case where reality itself seemed to fracture. Because sometimes the scariest mysteries aren’t the ones hiding in the dark… they’re the ones hiding inside the human mind.

Ep. 11 "I Did It For You, Anna"- The Marianne & Anna Bachmeier Story

On March 6th, 1981, inside a courtroom in Lübeck, a grieving mother pulled a gun and fired eight shots at the man accused of murdering her daughter. The world remembers the gunshots. But few know the story of Anna. In this episode, we uncover the life of a seven-year-old girl whose murder devastated Germany—and the mother whose grief became one of the most controversial acts of revenge in modern history. This is not just a true crime story. It’s a story about love, loss, rage… and what grief can make a person do.
