66: The 2014 Isla Vista Massacre

Welcome back everyone! This week the both of us discuss fleeting time and Robert Pattinson rights. Then Chris shares the case of Shannon Matthews, a nine year old girl that mysteriously went missing after school one day. It’s a wild ride, this one, taking twists and turns one would not expect. After all, killers and spirits are just things… Hidden Among Us.

*Announcement* Unfortunately with our busy schedules, HAU episodes will be released on the first and third weeks of each month, starting in March. We’re very sorry to have to resort to this and we hope that you understand <3 This week we talk about the harrowing tale of Honda’s lost AirPods and the arduous journey to reunite her with them. Then, Honda delves into the case of the Delphi Murders where two teenagers, Abigail Williams and Liberty German, went out on a hike only to never return. This is one’s a tough case, because even with a lot of evidence, it took a very long time to find a suspect. After all, killers and spirits are just things… Hidden Among Us.

We’ve been gone for a while… but fret not! We’re back! *happy dance* This week we discuss Singapore’s happenings aka the New York Times’ questionable rendition of Singapore Chicken Curry as well as our local cinematic masterpiece: Ah Girls Go to Army. Both of which have one thing in common and that they’re disappointments. Our story this week is a listener request so thank you so much Jeffri for recommending the case of Jennifer Pan to us! Chris shares the unfortunate details of Jennifer Pan’s life until the day everything fell apart. We also discuss the pressures faced by children and tiger parenting (which is, unfortunately, very common in Singapore). After all, killers and spirits are just things… Hidden Among Us.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! This year we wish you good health, wealth and lots of joy! We also discuss Adam Khoo workshops and what their point is… Honda then shares about John Edwards Robinson aka the first internet serial killer. This guy’s got a crime resume so long and impressive he could get a crime job anywhere. Then Chris talks about the Demon Cat of Washington D.C.. This supernatural cat might be the result of a drunken haze, but hey, who doesn’t love cats? (And if you do dislike cats… maybe 2022 is the year of introspection!) We’ll be on a break for a bit so until we meet again, take care! After all, killers and spirits are just things… Hidden Among Us.

We wish you a holly jolly Christmas! We discuss the perils of last minute shopping (don’t ever do it!) and the changing landscape of what interests children these days! Then Chris shares the heartbreaking case of Sameena Iman, a woman who just wanted to spend her Christmas with her partner of two years but was tragically murdered. This case has got an interesting detail in it too! Honda then talks about Huldufólk aka Hidden People aka Icelandic Elves. They live in adorable homes in rocks and are environmentalists. We hope you had a great holiday! Keep an eye out for our New Year’s Special! After all, killers and spirits are just things… Hidden Among Us.

Welcome back! This episode was almost not published because technology almost failed us but alas, we have survived! This week we discuss Marvel films (we don’t spoil No Way Home so this is a safe space!! Do not fear!). Chris also defends one of the sexiest Marvel heroes: Ant Man. Honda then goes on to share the case of the Setagaya Family Murders, a very strange case. Despite leaving a shit ton (pun intended) of evidence behind, this case remains unsolved till today. After all, killers and spirits are just things… Hidden Among Us.

Welcome back to another episode! This week we discuss Chris’ escapade at the post office—where she also mistakenly says the main Singpost office is at Pasir Ris when it’s actually at Paya Lebar. (Long story short: don’t trust Chris with directions!) We also discuss romance in TV shows while talking about the new CSI show and how we’re both unhappy with the way it’s written. Then Chris goes on to share the unsolved Oklahoma Girl Scout Murders where despite there being a lot of evidence left at the crime scene, the killer (or killers) have never been identified. If you have any theories do let us know! After all, killers and spirits are just things… Hidden Among Us.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Hello everyone and welcome to the first week of December! Hope it’s chilly and wonderful where you are. We have a strange conversation about parasites that somehow turn into a conversation about makeup—so if you’re wondering what our friendship is like: that’s a little gist of it. Then Honda shares the heartbreaking case of Janet Chandler, a victim of a brutal crime that turned into a cold case for several years before an interesting circumstance brings her case back into the limelight. After which, Chris talks about a case of mass hysteria that occurred at a school in Brunei. There are several supernatural theories as to what caused it—so what do you think? After all, killers and spirits are just things… Hidden Among Us.

Welcome back! It’s about to be December and the weather’s getting colder. This episode gets a little spicy as we cover the 2014 Isla Vista Massacre aka the OG incel domestic terrorist attack. Exactly 10 episodes ago we covered Alek Minassian who perpetrated the Toronto Van Attacks. In that episode we talked about how he was inspired by a manifesto written by Elliott Rodger. This week we cover his story and it tests both of our patience as we go through parts of his misogynistic ideology. After all, killers and spirits are just things… Hidden Among Us.

GUESS WHO’S BACK! BACK AGAIN! We’ve conquered our recent school semester and are glad to covering crime cases again! This week we catch up on world events and discuss CBD, its legality and how it’s being used in cafes and even in pet food.  Then Honda shares about Robert Maudsley aka the ‘brain eater’ or ‘Hannibal the cannibal’.  We then delve into how some inmates are dehumanised by the prison system and grapple with the morality of it all. After all, killers and spirits are just things… Hidden Among Us.
