Beschrijving

This episode of Histories of Horror dives into the harrowing 2007 murders of Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom in Knoxville, TN. Sai and AL confront the brutal reality of this tragedy, the systemic failures and judicial misconduct that followed, and the immense courage it has taken for the families to pursue justice for nearly two decades. HOH community is facing two major moments this week, and we are asking for your support to help us keep moving forward: 1. Support for AL’s SurgeryOur dear cohost, AL is heading into surgery again this Wednesday, which also happens to be her birthday. This is a heavy physical and financial burden, and we want to surround her with as much relief as possible. Please consider contributing to her GoFundMe to help cover medical costs and recovery. * Support AL's GoFundMe here! [https://gofund.me/0f6eb7aef] 2. Boots on the Ground: No Kings LA Sai Marie is heading to Los Angeles on the 28th to represent Authors of the Resistance at No Kings LA. Thanks to a generous anonymous angel investor, her travel and accommodations are already secured! However, being "boots on the ground" comes with additional daily costs.

The Chilling Mystery of the Alphabet Killer: An Unsolved Case from the 70s

In this episode of Histories of Horror, Sai & AL discuss The Alphabet Killer Murders of Rochester, New York. In the early 1970s, the streets of Rochester, New York, were gripped by fear as a serial killer preyed on young girls using a terrifyingly specific pattern. This case, known as The Alphabet Killer murders, remains unsolved to this day. In this conversation, the hosts explore the details of this haunting story, including the victims, the investigation, and the chilling geographical pattern that left a mark on a community. The HOH community is facing two major situations, and we are asking for your support to help us keep moving forward: AL is still recovering from surgery. This is a heavy physical and financial burden, and we want to surround her with as much relief as possible.

Scorching Heat of Unchecked Power & Predatory Behavior: The Dacer-Corbito Murders|Simona Bearcub & Christy Perez

This afternoon on Histories of Horror, we are pulling back the curtain on the scorching heat of unchecked power—the brutal 2000 murder of PR man Bubby Dacer and Emmanuel Corbito. This isn't just a political hit; it’s a story of state-sponsored terror where victims were strangled with wire and burned on a pyre of tires in a Cavite creek. But the horror isn't just history. We are also addressing a predator closer to home: Christy Perez. We’re exposing how this convicted sex offender has infiltrated advocacy and spiritual spaces to normalize a history of exploiting children—including the forced sexual servitude of a 15-year-old missing transgirl from Alabama. We are standing with Simona Bearcub to name the monsters in our own backyard. The HOH community is facing two major situations, and we are asking for your support to help us keep moving forward: AL is still recovering from surgery. This is a heavy physical and financial burden, and we want to surround her with as much relief as possible.
