Episode 129. Hotel Circus Circus and Feral Child Oxana Malaya

In this week's episode Sandra talks about the famous Circus Circus hotel in Las Vegas. Known as one of the cheapest hotel options this hotel has haunted guests since the 1970's. Full of mysterious stories including the famous room 123 that is so haunted, the hotel won't even rent it out to guests anymore. Danielle explores the extraordinary and heartbreaking story of Oxana Malaya, a girl discovered in 1991 living in a dog kennel in rural Ukraine.Often sensationalized as the “girl raised by dogs,” Oxana’s story is far more complex than the headlines suggest. After experiencing severe neglect at a young age, she survived for years among the family’s dogs, adapting to her surroundings in remarkable ways. Danielle walks through Oxana’s early life, the shocking discovery that brought her story to international attention, and the difficult process of rehabilitation that followed.This episode also examines the broader reality behind so-called “feral children” cases, exploring how early childhood neglect can affect development and what Oxana’s life has looked like in the years since her rescue.Sandra's Sources:https://www.reddit.com/r/Paranormal/comments/qjx06o/my_paranormal_experience_at_circus_circus_in_las/. https://www.circuscircus.com/hotels/. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circus_Circus_Las_Vegas. https://www.scare-zone.com/2011/10/22/the-13th-floor-experince-at-circus-circus-las-vegas/ https://www.google.com/search?q=circus+circus+room+123&oq=circus+circus+room+123&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIHCAEQABiABDIZCAIQLhivARjHARiRAhiABBiKBRiYBRiZBTIICAMQABgWGB4yCAgEEAAYFhgeMggIBRAAGBYYHjIICAYQABgWGB4yCAgHEAAYFhgeMggICBAAGBYYHjIICAkQABgWGB7SAQg0OTgyajBqN6gCALACAA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:1c59739f,vid:n_9TfPm_k7U,st:0.Danielle's Sources:https://allthatsinteresting.com/oxana-malaya Grice, Elizabeth (July 17, 2006).
