The Smiley Face Murder Theory: Coincidence or Coordinated Killings?. Content Warning.
At the center of their controversial investigation was a chilling pattern: graffiti near many of the death sites, often depicting a crude but unmistakable smiley face.

The Guillotine: Blade of Revolution and Relic of Justice. Content Warning.
The guillotine’s story is far more complex than the blood-spattered images etched into popular imagination. It is a tale of innovation, morality, and the shifting tides of justice, spanning from its first public strike to the final drop of its blade in the late 20th century.

Diogo Alves: Lisbon’s ‘Aqueduct Murderer’—The Man, the Myth, and the Head in a Jar. Content Warning.
At the center of the tale was a man named Diogo Alves—a farm boy from Galicia, Spain, who came to Lisbon in search of work and left his mark in infamy. By the time the rope tightened around his neck in 1841, he was branded “O assassino do Aqueduto”—The Aqueduct Murderer.

The Hex House: Tulsa’s True Crime Horror Story. Content Warning.
At the center of this chilling tale was Carol Ann Smith, a 50-something woman who blended into the community so well that neighbors saw nothing amiss. Outwardly, she appeared genteel and respectable.

The Letters from the Watcher: Westfield’s Suburban Nightmare. Content Warning.
Six bedrooms. A sprawling lawn. A quiet, tree-lined street in one of New Jersey’s safest towns. In June 2014, Derek and Maria Broaddus closed on 657 Boulevard in Westfield for \$1.3 million. They’d worked for years to give their three children this life — the kind of neighborhood where nothing bad ever happens.

The Girl in the Elevator: The Haunting of the Cecil Hotel. Content Warning.
Built in 1924 in the heart of downtown Los Angeles, the Cecil began as a glamorous stop for travelers. Marble floors, gilded fixtures, and a grand lobby that promised prosperity. But over the decades, the dream curdled. The hotel’s location—just blocks from Skid Row—and its reputation for crime and suicide drew the broken, the desperate, and the dangerous.

Lobotomy: The Dark History of a Mind-Altering Procedure. Content Warning.
A radical idea takes shape In the early 20th century, psychiatry struggled to treat severe mental illnesses like schizophrenia, depression, and psychosis. Overcrowded hospitals housed patients who often faced lifelong institutionalization with little hope of recovery.
