Hey Slaycation Nation, here comes a doozy of a case that will have you rethinking everything you know about resorts.  Let’s just say this, be sure to read ALL the reviews before booking your stay!   Unfortunately, Florida woman, Carla Stefaniak either didn’t read or didn’t heed the numerous 1-star reviews when she booked one final night at a Costa Rican villa through Airbnb back in 2018.  Without giving any details away — what was supposed to be a birthday celebration trip quickly turned into a nightmare scenario that feels straight out of a horror movie. Buckle up, because this one takes some twists and turns that will have you trembling in fear and rage.  As always, thanks for Slaycating with us and stay safe out there!

OK Slaycaters, picture this — a seasoned solo traveler, a beautiful hiking trail in Central Japan, and a chance to check another spiritual journey off a personal bucket list.  What could go wrong? Well, if you’re a fan of our show you know we turn ‘going wrong’ into an art form.  Pattie Wu-Murad, an experienced traveler and avid hiker from Connecticut headed to Japan to hike the well-known Kumano Kodo Trail.   To say things didn’t go according to plan would be a huge understatement. A simple hike became a multi-national venture as search and rescue teams from around the world would join the U.S. Embassy and the FBI in a massive effort to ‘Help Find Pattie.’   We won’t give away the ending — except to say there is an ending. As always, thanks for Slaycating with us and please stay safe out there.  Love, ‘The True Crime Throuple.’  Slaycation is recorded at the Brooklyn Podcasting Studio by Josh Wilcox Editing is by Kelley Marcano MORE KIM!:  Subscribe to SLAYCATION PLUS and get weekly ‘More Kim’ bonus episodes.  SUBSCRIBE to SLAYCATION PLUS right in Apple Podcasts, or on our website: ⁠⁠https://plus.slaycation.wtf/supporters/pricing⁠⁠ SLAYCATERS ONLY:  Interact with the Hosts and get behind the scenes info, photos and more in our FACEBOOK GROUP: ⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/394778366758281⁠⁠ MERCH!  Top quality ‘Pack Your Body Bags" tote bags, as well as Slaycation T-shirts, towels, sandals, fanny packs, stickers and more available at:  ⁠⁠https://plus.slaycation.wtf/collections/all⁠⁠ MORE INFO:  to learn more about Slaycation, the Hosts go to: ⁠⁠www.slaycation.wtf⁠⁠ EMAIL:  ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

Today we have a special treat for our Slaycaters: A sneak peek of one of our favorite true crime shows, Dakota Spotlight. Host James Wolner spends this season investigating a frustrating cold case - and ends up with new leads and a shift from the Attorney General's office. It's beautifully produced and deeply investigated - we think you'll love it! 15-year-old Barbara Louise Cotton vanished from the streets of Williston, North Dakota, on April 11, 1981, five blocks from her home. What happened to Barbara Cotton? In episode 1, while others called Barbara a 'runaway', a frustrated yet unyielding Sandee Evanson refuses to stop looking for her childhood friend. A Better Search for Barbara is a deep, investigative dive into one of North Dakota's longest running cold cases.

Hey Slaycaters, get ready for a Slaycation that's part psychological thriller and part international cover-up with a side of WTF!  This week we’re diving into the mysterious case of Magdalena Żuk, a 27-year-old woman who traveled alone to Egypt and... wound up on our show. Did Magdalena suffer a sudden mental health crisis, or was something far more sinister at play? As always, we’ll let you decide—but prepare to yell at your speaker at least five times.

Hey Slaycaters, we’re back with a case that starts out sad, gets better for two minutes, then turns tragic.  Aren’t Slaycations the best?  But hey, we all know what we signed up for.  Unfortunately, Kiara Agnew did NOT sign up for what happened to her in Playa del Carmen, Mexico.  And while the details of this case are completely nutso -- what happens during the ensuing investigation and trial will have you throwing your hands up in the air wondering what kind of world we live in. Rather than give anything away, we invite you to go on this dark journey with us.

Hey Slaycaters — we know, we know… we tried to do this case in one episode — but trust us, there are so many ups & downs and twists & turns to the strange and tragic case of Levi Davis, it was impossible to fit it all in just one. When you hear it — you’ll understand. This case literally has it all — fame, fortune, misfortune, blackmail, sex, drugs and…rugby! On top of that, it's a very recent case so there are lots of details and yet lots of questions and mysterious motivations and discoveries. But either way, it’s a sad, crazy tale you won’t soon forget. As always, thanks for Slaycating with ‘More, Husband & Tolerable’ and please stay safe out there!

Hey Slaycaters, you’re in for a special treat because this case embodies the perfect Slaycation. In 1998, Kim and Steve Hricko booked a romantic, Valentine’s weekend getaway at a golf resort on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. Not only would love be in the air — but also murder — because included in the package was a staged murder mystery play where guests get to solve a whodunit!  Unfortunately, the theatrical performance wouldn’t be the only death that weekend.  Instead of rekindling their love, Kim and Steve’s vacation would go up in flames when their hotel room mysteriously caught fire.  Was it an accident or murder? You won't believe how this case was miraculously solved — or, how hard it is for Kim to say, “miraculously!”  As always, thanks for Slaycating with us and please stay safe out there!   SUBSCRIBE to SLAYCATION PLUS right in Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or on our website: https://plus.slaycation.wtf/supporters/pricing   For AD FREE LISTENING and weekly 'MORE KIM' Bonus Segments.

Hey Slaycaters, get ready for a truly disorienting case that you won’t soon forget.  When Judith Lois Bradford Smith accompanied her husband, Jeff, to a pharmaceutical conference in Philadelphia the plan was to mix business with pleasure.   While Jeff attended the conference, Judith was to enjoy a day of sightseeing in Philly, including visits to Independence Hall and The Liberty Bell.  But when it was time to meet back up — Judith was nowhere to be found.  Thus begins a case that starts as a mysterious vanishing and ends up as a homicide over 600 miles away in North Carolina.   We’ll save the gory details and our theories as to what happened for the show… but just know, there’s a lot of bad folks out there and beware!  As always, thanks for Slaycating with us and stay safe out in them streets!
