    Oct 31 2024
    Visit Patreon.com/psychopediapod to join our family of freaks and gain access to exclusive content! We’ve all felt it—the spine-tingling sensation that someone or something is lurking, watching us from the shadows. That an inanimate object, specifically a doll, has somehow come to life, piercing its gaze through the veil of stillness. In the eerie corners of Key West, this creeping dread becomes almost tangible in the presence of Robert the Doll, a stuffed creation with disturbingly lifelike features: a stitched mouth, button nose, and wide, soulless black eyes that seem to follow your every move with a sinister intelligence. Although Robert the Doll may have been intended as a charming toy, anyone who lays eyes on him knows that his haunting expression conceals dark secrets best left undisturbed. Robert is not just a doll; he is a vessel of dark magic, cursed (if you dare to believe), and ready to unleash havoc and despair at any moment. This is the story of the most haunted doll in the world. Happy Halloween!

  • EP93: Blender Bloodshed
    Oct 30 2024
    Visit Patreon.com/psychopediapod to join our family of freaks and gain access to exclusive content! On February 13, 2024, a man received a call from his grandchildren's school informing him that their mother, Kristina Joksimovic, a former Miss Switzerland finalist, had failed to pick them up. After collecting the children and bringing them back to their home, he searched the house for clues as to his daughter's whereabouts, and found a large black garbage bag in the basement laundry room. Trembling, he peeled back the plastic to make an absolutely gruesome discovery: Kristina’s signature cascade of golden blonde hair, still attached to her severed head. The horrifying sight raised countless questions, most hauntingly: What had happened to his beautiful daughter, and where was the rest of Kristina? The answers would soon reveal themselves in a manner that shocked and horrified the world. Because parts of Kristina’s remains were discovered soaking in a chemical solution, while others, devastatingly, had been pureed in a kitchen blender. This is the shockingly brutal and heartbreaking case of Kristina Joksimovic.

  • EP92: Serial Killer Robert Hansen: The Butcher Baker (Part 2)
    Oct 23 2024
    Visit Patreon.com/psychopediapod to join our family of freaks and gain access to exclusive content! In Part 2 of our two-part coverage of Robert Hansen, also known as the "Butcher Baker," we explore his twisted motives and gruesome methods of killing. Hansen would lure vulnerable women to his remote cabin and engage in a sadistic ritual, which involved hunting them down like defenseless prey in the vast Alaskan wilderness. Often, in a particularly cruel twist, he would release his ensnared victims just to chase them through the woods with a rifle, savoring the hunt and inflicting maximum psychological torment. Hansen's horrific legacy left at least 17 innocent victims buried beneath the cold Alaskan earth, their tragic fates sealed by his sick ambition.

    Visit Patreon.com/psychopediapod to join our family of freaks and gain access to exclusive content! Robert Hansen, infamously known as the "Butcher Baker," terrorized Alaska in the 1970s and '80s and embodied the terrifying essence of a methodical predator stalking vulnerable prey. In Part 1 of our two-part coverage of Alaska's most prolific serial killer, we delve into Hansen's troubled upbringing and the disturbing behaviors that ultimately led to the deaths of countless innocent women. He was a deeply twisted individual who believed he had the right to determine a woman's worth and, even more horrifically, to violently eliminate any woman he deemed "indecent" or unworthy of existence. Our exploration of Robert Hansen in Part 1 reveals the complexities of his twisted psyche and the societal factors that may have contributed to his inexcusable, heinous actions.

  • EP88: Prenatal Predator
    Oct 2 2024
    To support us and gain access to exclusive content, please visit Patreon.com/psychopediapod At 3:26 PM on Thursday, December 16, 2004, Becky Harper made a gruesome discovery that no parent should ever have to see: her 23-year-old daughter, Bobbi Jo Stinnett, lying dead in a pool of blood on the floor of her Missouri home. The scene was a vision of gruesome chaos, and Becky struggled to comprehend the horror before her. As she continued to absorb all the horrific details, her breath caught in her throat as she realized that Bobbi Jo’s abdomen had been violently ripped open. And, heartbreakingly, the baby she had been carrying for nearly eight months was gone. All that remained was a severed umbilical cord. This is the devastating case of the brutal murder of Bobbi Jo Stinnett and the shocking abduction of her unborn daughter, Victoria Jo. It is also the chilling story of Lisa Montgomery, the deeply disturbed perpetrator who became the first woman to be executed by the federal government since 1953. The details of this episode are extremely graphic in nature - listener discretion is advised.
