This month’s unsolved murder case takes us somewhere we haven’t been yet: Hawai’i. I want to be up front before we get into things...this is new territory for me. I have learned a lot about Hawaiian culture while researching for this post, but I’m not naïve or arrogant enough to believe I know everything. If [...]

The Missing: Juan Pedro Martinez
This month’s missing persons case will be a relatively short one, because there aren’t many credible sources online that detail anything beyond the bare bones of the case. We’re headed to Spain to examine the strange accident that led up to the disappearance of Juan Pedro Martínez. Let’s explore. (A photo of Juan Pedro taken [...]
Resolved: Wendy Stephens (AKA Doe B10)
As we get back to our regularly scheduled programming, we’re going to cover another resolved Doe case. This case is a bit different from the Sumter County Does, however. This Doe’s killer has always been known, so that mystery was solved long ago. Getting her name back was the last step in this process. So, [...]
Bundy: The Missing and Suspected Victims
Things are going to look a little different this month at the Morbid Library. We’ve stuck consistently to the schedule, but we’re coming up on our 1 Year Anniversary - and we’re also coming up on a big date in True Crime History. On January 24, 1989, Ted Bundy was executed via the electric chair [...]
Identified: Delta Dawn
Welcome to the last post of 2020, everyone. It’s been a real journey - this year has been garbage. That’s no surprise to anyone, of course. Because I’ve spent a year digging into such dark topics and documenting them here, while living in a world that seems to be going up in flames, I thought [...]
Creepy Cryptids: The Mongolian Death Worm
This month’s cryptid is a historical one - writings of it date back to the 1920s, and though it lives on in infamy to today, I don’t think it’s one of the more well-known cryptids out there. Today we’ll be examining the origins and various run-ins with the so-called Mongolian Death Worm. Let’s explore. Origins [...]
The Unnamed: Jenkins County Jane Doe 1988
Note: Got my schedule a little messed up here, so we've got a Doe case on the 25th this month and a cryptid case on the 30th. This month’s Doe case is one that has found some infamy in the past year or so, thanks to two podcasts: The Fall Line [...]
The Unnamed: Christy Crystal Creek
This month’s Jane Doe is the only remaining unidentified suspected victim of serial killer Wayne Nance. Nance, who was dubbed the Missoula Mauler, terrorized Montana from 1974 to 1986, and his rampage was only put to an end when his would-be victim shot and killed him during a home invasion. Two of his previously unidentified [...]
The Unsolved: Leroy Carter Jr
Before we get into this, I want to start off by saying that this case does not have a lot of reputable sources online - which, as a hobbyist writer, is where I draw 99% of my information from. Lucky for me (and all of you!) Michael Whelan of the Unresolved podcast has done the [...]
The Mysterious: Georgia Guidestones
There are a lot of things in the United States that are referred to as “America’s Stonehenge.” In fact, we’ve already taken a look at one of them: Mystery Hill in New Hampshire. For most of these things, the designation as something even in the ballpark of Stonehenge makes me roll my eyes. Stonehenge is [...]
