Mothman

In 1966, people in the small town of Point Pleasant began reporting something terrifying lurking in the shadows — a massive winged creature with glowing red eyes. This week, Mom dives into the legend of the Mothman: the first sightings, the panic that spread through town, strange paranormal encounters, and the tragic disaster forever tied to the creature’s name. Was it a warning? A cryptid? Or just mass hysteria? Over 50 years later, people are still trying to figure out what was really seen in Point Pleasant.

Old Idaho Pen

This week, Becca takes us inside the Old Idaho State Penitentiary — a prison built in the 1800s that held some of Idaho’s most dangerous criminals for over 100 years. From brutal conditions and prison riots to attempted escapes and notorious inmates, the prison’s dark history still lingers inside its sandstone walls. What started as a single cell house eventually became one of the most infamous prisons in the West… and many people believe some of its former inmates never really left.

Synanon

This week, Mom tells the story of something right in her backyard - Synanon — the organization that started as a drug rehabilitation program, but slowly transformed into something far more disturbing. What began with the goal of helping people recover eventually became known for strict control, intense group tactics, and a leader whose power continued to grow unchecked. From “The Game” to the group’s increasingly bizarre and dangerous behavior, Synanon’s story has become one of the most infamous cult-like organizations in American history.
