Left Behind on Austria’s Highest Mountain: The Grossglockner Case

Four relatives gathered for a quiet family lunch—but within days, three were dead and one was fighting for his life.

For three weeks, the Washington, D.C. area lived in terror as random people were shot while pumping gas, shopping, mowing lawns, and going about ordinary life.

Puerto Vallarta was supposed to be paradise — beaches, nightlife, and tourists chasing the perfect escape. But after cartel violence shook the resort town, three women were found dead within days of each other, each case carrying disturbing similarities authorities refused to connect. Now, with officials denying a serial killer is stalking the city, one question remains: is Puerto Vallarta hiding something far darker than anyone wants to admit?

A charming stranger walked into San Francisco’s gay nightlife scene with a pencil, a smile, and a sketch meant to make his victims feel seen. But behind the drawings was one of the city’s most disturbing cold cases: the Doodler, a killer linked to at least six men and possibly many more.

In 1912, an entire family and two young guests were found murdered inside a quiet Iowa home, but the crime scene was destroyed almost immediately by the very town desperate for answers. What followed was a maze of false leads, suspicious ministers, powerful enemies, coerced confessions, and a chilling theory about a killer who may have been traveling America by train. More than a century later, the Villisca axe murders remain one of the most disturbing unsolved cases in American history.
