EP209: Sacrifice & Cinema: Sandy Charles, the 14-Year-Old Horror Fan Turned Killer
Épisode 209
mercredi 4 novembre 2026 • Durée 01:13:09
At just 14 years old, Sandy Charles committed a horrific, horror movie-inspired murder that shocked an entire nation. In 1995, the teen from La Ronge, Saskatchewan became obsessed with the 1989 supernatural horror film Warlock and convinced that he could acquire the power to FLY by performing a gruesome ritual: murdering a young, male, fatherless virgin and cooking his body fat. Tragically, 7-year-old Johnathan Thimpsen fit the criteria. What followed was an almost unfathomable act of violence, fueled by a twisted belief in black magic and the promise of supernatural powers. But how does a 14-year-old cross the line between cinematic fantasy and real-life murder, and what happens when a court decides he isn't criminally responsible? This is the deeply disturbing case of Sandy Charles, where Hollywood horror became a child's deadly reality.

EP208: The Amityville Horror: Death. Demons. Deception.
vendredi 30 octobre 2026 • Durée 51:40
The infamous Amityville Horror House is the site of six brutal murders, alleged demonic hauntings, and one of the most controversial paranormal mysteries in American history. In November 1974, 23-year-old Ronald DeFeo Jr. slaughtered his parents and four younger siblings as they slept inside their family home at 112 Ocean Avenue in Amityville, New York. Just over a year later, George and Kathy Lutz moved into the same house with their three children, only to claim they'd entered a living nightmare. Mysterious voices, unexplained physical attacks, and an unseen presence that seemed determined to drive them out. Their terrifying account would inspire The Amityville Horror, one of the most famous and fiercely disputed haunting stories of all time. But was the house genuinely plagued by something supernatural, or was the entire ordeal an elaborate hoax? From the gruesome DeFeo family annihilation to the Lutz family's increasingly spooky claims, we're diving into EVERYTHING. Happy Halloween!

EP207: Found In the Fridge: The Tragic Murder of Abby Choi
Épisode 207
mercredi 28 octobre 2026 • Durée 01:09:26
Hong Kong influencer and socialite Abby Choi gave her ex-husband's family everything: a multimillion-dollar home, jobs, and a lifestyle most people could only dream of. Then, in February 2023, the 28-year-old mother of four vanished. Abby rubbed shoulders with fashion's elite while generously bankrolling her ex-husband, Alex Kwong, and his family. After she disappeared, police searched a village house in Tai Po. Inside, they found what appeared to be a makeshift butcher shop, dismembered human remains, and a skull in a pot of soup. As investigators pieced together Abby's final hours, suspicion fell on the people who had benefited most from her generosity: Alex Kwong, his brother Anthony Kwong, and their father Kwong Kau, who are now on trial for her murder. What emerged was a story of greed, entitlement, and alleged family betrayal, raising the question: how does a woman give someone everything, only to allegedly lose her life because they wanted more?
NOTE: As of this recording, the trial is ongoing. All allegations discussed in this episode remain unproven unless otherwise stated, and the defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.

EP206: Inside Philadelphia's House of Horrors: The R.C. Horsch Case
Épisode 206
mercredi 21 octobre 2026 • Durée 01:10:16
The Olney House of Horrors in Philadelphia has recently become the center of a truly disturbing investigation into Raymond Horsch, a pornographic filmmaker suspected of harboring secrets far more sinister than anyone could have imagined. Behind the walls of his home, investigators uncovered a disturbing collection of sexually explicit photographs and videos, raising horrifying questions about whether some of the violence he filmed was staged- or whether countless women were actually murdered on camera. With seven missing women reportedly linked to the investigation, allegations of snuff films, and authorities searching the property for possible human remains, the line between sexual fantasy and sadistic reality has become terrifyingly blurred. Was Raymond Horsch simply a man with a depraved imagination, or was Philadelphia's so-called House of Horrors hiding evidence of a serial killer?

Sarah Boone, infamously known as “The Suitcase Killer,” zipped her boyfriend inside a suitcase, laughed as he desperately begged to be let out, and recorded his final pleas for help on her cellphone. What she later described as an innocent game of hide-and-seek ended with 42-year-old Jorge Torres Jr. suffocating to death inside a suitcase in their Florida apartment. As investigators uncovered chilling cellphone footage, bruises and cuts on Jorge's body, and a deeply troubled relationship, Sarah launched into a years-long legal circus involving countless attorneys, outrageous courtroom demands, and a defense that seemed almost too bizarre to believe. In the end, the most damning witness against Sarah Boone....was Sarah Boone herself.

EP204: The Serial Killer THEY RELEASED: Arthur Shawcross
Épisode 204
mercredi 7 octobre 2026 • Durée 01:31:24
Arthur Shawcross, the “Genesee River Killer,” murdered two children and after serving just over 14 years in prison, he was released back into society. Then women started disappearing. Their bodies began turning up around Rochester, New York, many near the Genesee River, as police searched for a serial killer they had already caught once before. By the time investigators finally connected the murders to Shawcross, he had been free for less than two years and 11 more people were dead. This is the horrifying story of a convicted child killer who was released from prison, the victims who paid the ultimate price, and how one devastating second chance allowed Arthur Shawcross to become one of New York’s most notorious serial killers.

EP203: Mica Miller: The Pastor's Prisoner
Épisode 203
mercredi 30 septembre 2026 • Durée 01:30:47
Pastor J.P. Miller preached about marriage, submission, and a wife’s duty to her husband while his own wife, Mica Miller, was desperately trying to escape him. Mica accused J.P. of tracking her movements, harassing her with dozens of calls, interfering with her finances, sabotaging her car, and posting a nude photo of her online. Then, just days after filing for separation, 30-year-old Mica was found dead from a gunshot wound in a remote state park. Her tragic death was ruled a suicide, and authorities found no evidence J.P. was involved. But what investigators uncovered about the months leading up to Mica’s death would eventually land the controversial pastor at the center of a federal criminal case—and expose allegations of a marriage far darker than anything he preached about from the pulpit.

EP202: 50 Shades of Felony: The "Rough Sex" Defense
Épisode 202
mercredi 23 septembre 2026 • Durée 01:15:19
Fidel Lopez claimed that his girlfriend, Maria Nemeth, had been injured during a night of “rough sex” - but when police found Maria dead and disemboweled, with her intestines torn from her body and blood and tissue scattered throughout their apartment, it became horrifyingly clear that this was no sexual accident. What began as a night of tequila and intimacy in their Sunrise, Florida, apartment descended into an almost incomprehensible act of violence after Maria called out her estranged husband’s name during sex. Under interrogation, Fidel’s story began to collapse - and what he eventually admitted to doing to Maria was so grotesque that even seasoned investigators struggled to comprehend the crime scene. This is the brutal murder of Maria Nemeth, the disturbing confession of Fidel Lopez, and the story behind the so-called “50 Shades Defense”: when “rough sex” becomes a convenient explanation for violence against women.

EP201: The Crossbow Cannibal
Épisode 201
mercredi 16 septembre 2026 • Durée 01:22:59
Stephen Griffiths, the “Crossbow Cannibal,” hunted his victims with a crossbow before dismembering their bodies and eating their remains. A criminology student in Bradford, England, Griffiths didn’t just study murder - he became the very thing he had spent years obsessing over: a serial killer. Horrifyingly, part of his blood-soaked reign was captured on CCTV when a terrified woman was seen running for her life through his apartment building's hallway, with Griffiths chasing close behind. Moments later, he shot her in the head with a crossbow. But what investigators uncovered would reveal something even more disturbing: a killer consumed by homicide, violence, and death who had ultimately made himself the subject of his own twisted research.

EP200: Suicide or Setup? A Father’s Fight for Answers (feat. Bart Allen)
Épisode 200
mercredi 9 septembre 2026 • Durée 01:40:49
Seventeen-year-old Destry Allen was found dead from a gunshot wound to the head by his own father, Bart. Authorities ruled it a "pristine suicide" - but to Bart, and to several experts who later examined the case, almost nothing about the scene pointed to suicide. The subsequent investigation did little to resolve those questions. No autopsy was conducted, despite state law requiring one. No toxicology screen. No meaningful ballistics analysis. No testing of the blood evidence. Simply put: the investigation into Destry Allen's death seemed to end before it ever truly began.
For Psychopedia’s 200th episode, I wanted to do something that felt especially meaningful: use this platform to shine a light on a victim whose story deserves to be heard, and on a family that has spent two decades fighting to be heard alongside him. So I sat down with Bart Allen himself to hear, in his own words, what he saw when he found his son, what happened in the days and years that followed, and why he remains convinced there is far more to Destry’s death than the official story.
This is the story of a 17-year-old boy, a father and mother who refuse to stop fighting for him, and one haunting question that has never gone away: Did Destry Allen take his own life...or was he murdered in cold blood?
DISCLAIMER: Any statements or theories presented in this episode regarding a potential suspect reflect the opinions and conclusions of Bart Allen, based on his interpretation of the physical evidence, timeline, anecdotal information, and his extensive review of the circumstances surrounding Destry’s death. These allegations and theories have not been proven in a court of law, and no law enforcement agency has formally determined that any individual discussed in this episode was responsible for Destry’s death. No person identified as a potential suspect in this episode has been charged with a crime in connection with Destry’s death. All individuals are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.
