The Dark Masquerade

Carl Tanzler

Happy Halloween, everyone!! Grab that bowl of candy, get cozy, and join me for this weird little mini episode. Carl Tanzler was obsessed with a woman by the name of Maria Elena Milagro de Hoyos. After Maria’s death, that obsession drove him to do things that any rational person wouldn’t even consider.

Dorothy Jane Scott

For this first episode back after deciding to unpublish, re-record, and rerelease all of my previous episodes, I decided to go with one of the first stories I ever researched, the disappearance and murder of Dorothy Jane Scott. Dorothy was a devoted mother and a loving daughter who disappeared on the night of May 28, 1980 after helping a coworker get to the hospital. She had been receiving disturbing calls before her disappearance and it was obvious someone was stalking her.  Who that someone was, we still don’t know and perhaps never will. Her remains weren’t discovered until years later and they did little to aid in the investigation. This episode isn’t very long because, unfortunately, there was little to no evidence in the case and it remains unsolved to this day.

A Dark Masquerade Announcement

After a long break and a lot of contemplating the future of The Dark Masquerade, I have finally made a decision for what's to come of this podcast. While it was an extremely difficult choice to make, I feel like, in the end, it was the best possible solution.  As of right now, we are tentatively scheduled to release our first remastered episode on September 13, 2023. I will post any updates as far as scheduling and releases from here on out right here in the description box.
