Skeleton in the Chimney | M.P. Pellicer

It was Labor Day weekend and Steve Liethen owner of the Good 'N Loud Music in Dane County, Wisconsin was fixing a water leak after a boiler was removed. When he shone a light into the chimney the last thing he expected to see was a human skull.


Dane County, Wisconsin, September 3, 1989

A construction crew made a hole at the base of the chimney to remove the remains. They also found a shoe, pieces of clothing and a 6-inch clump of intact reddish-brown hair.

Exorcist's Murder Still Unsolved | M.P. Pellicer

In 1998, a priest was brutally murdered in a little, rural town in Wisconsin. His throat was slit, and despite the advances in DNA identification and the public’s mistaken belief in the CSI effect, the crime remains unsolved till this day.


Rev. Alfred Kunz had just finished co-hosting a faith-based radio show named Our Catholic Family on WEKZ in Monroe, Wisconsin on the evening of March 3, 1998. He had been dropped off at St. Michael Church by Father Charles Fiore (1934-2003), and he spoke on the phone at 10:23 pm. Later it was verified by investigators the call was to another priest to discuss church business.

Evil Never Dies | M.P. Pellicer

​​There is a place in Indiana. It's a spacious house sitting on several, wooded acres, which for many years became the final, but not restful place for young men, the victims of a ruthless killer.


His name was Herb Baumeister, born on April 7, 1947, the son of Dr. Herbert and Elizabeth Baumeister. He was one of four children. His father was an anesthesiologist who had been practicing since the late 1950s. One has to wonder what Dr. Baumeister thought of the oldest of his four children. His behavior was disturbing from an early age, but it became undeniable when he reached puberty. He started to develop a fascination with death, and wondered aloud what urine would taste like. He would chase his male classmates asking for a drink. Herb would torture animals and play with the corpses. Another time he took the carcass of a dead crow he found on the road, and placed it on his teacher's desk.

The Curse of No. 28 | M.P. Pellicer

 Presently stories abound about haunted houses, castles, cars, collector items etc, but for me, the real question lies in how did this come about. Take the story about the murder at the Keddie Cabins.

Is there really a way to truly release the agony, torment and terror of incidents that produced a haunting, whether intelligent or residual?

Sheila Sharp, 14, stepped from normal to a world of madness on the morning of April 12, 1981 when she returned to Cabin No. 28 at Keddie Resort where she lived with her mother and four siblings.

Good Time Joe and the Great White Way | Stories of the Supernatural



Judge Crater was remembered for several reasons. He was a philanderer of the first order; he had a scrawny neck (14 inches), a head that was too small for his 6 foot body, and taking a taxi ride into oblivion. His disappearance stumped police, psychics and armchair investigators long before Jimmy Hoffa evaporated from this earth in 1975.
