Hello spooky people! Episode 82 is full of unknown origins and wild mysteries, so I hope you're ready. In our first case, we explore the infamous Boy in the Box case—an unsolved mystery that’s haunted investigators for decades. Unidentified for over 60 years, this Joseph Zarelli's origins and the circumstances surrounding his death remain unknown to this day. For our second case of the week, we go back in time to uncover the strange tale of the Green Children of Woolpit.
