Ep. 130: Texas Terror- The Servant Girl Annihilator & The Driskill Hotel

Everything’s bigger in Texas, including its shadows. In this week’s episode of Spirits with Crime, we’re uncorking a glass of history and horror as we take a look at The Servant Girl Annihilator, a brutal 1800s killer who stalked Austin long before Jack the Ripper hit London. Then, we check in to Austin’s Driskill Hotel, a lavish landmark where luxury meets lingering spirits. From spectral brides to ghostly children, the Driskill proves that some guests never check out.Pour yourself a drink, settle in, and let’s untangle these Texas tales. Did the Servant Girl Annihilator inspire Jack the Ripper theories for you too? I love hearing your takes, so be sure to leave me your twisted theories.
