Episode 244: The Ant Hill Kids

This week on Cursewords and Crayons, we’re diving into the deeply disturbing case of the Ant Hill Kids—led by Roch Thériault, a self-proclaimed prophet with delusions of holiness, control issues from hell, and absolutely no business being in charge of anyone. What started as a small religious commune quickly spiraled into isolation, manipulation, abuse, and the kind of unchecked power that makes you want to scream into a couch cushion. We talk doomsday beliefs, forced devotion, survival, failed systems, and how one man convinced people to follow him straight into a nightmare. This one is heavy, infuriating, and wildly upsetting—so consider this your warning: the Ant Hill Kids case is not for the faint of heart. Like what you hear?

Episode 242: Teresita Basa and the Murder That Talked Back

This week, we’re heading to 1977 Chicago for the case of Teresita Basa—a respiratory therapist whose murder investigation took a sharp left turn into “wait…did a ghost just solve this?” We talk about suspicious coworkers, missing jewelry, a mysterious note, a confession, a deadlocked jury, and the possession claim that helped point police toward Allan Showery. Was it Teresita speaking from beyond the grave? Was it intuition? Overheard information? A subconscious fear wearing a spooky little hat? Honestly…still deeply unclear. 💬 Like what you hear?
