Episode 216: Mia’s Nightmare, James’s Mirror Man And Yiya Murano’s Cyanide Tea | Monique & Amy

This week on Another Fucking Horror Podcast, Monique and Amy are giving you two stories that are wildly different but share one deeply cursed message: sometimes the people with the strongest vibes are the ones you should be the most suspicious of.First, Amy covers Mia’s story from the Otherworld Patreon, featuring James, a mysterious ex-boyfriend who said he could sometimes have the dreams of the people he slept next to. Mia did not believe him, because obviously that is an insane thing to say. Then he described her lifelong recurring childhood nightmare in perfect detail, despite the fact that she had never told him about it. After that, the nightmare stopped.And then a mirror got involved; Mia saw James’s body reflected back at her, but with a completely different old man’s face. And so did his therapist. Then Monique covers Yiya Murano, Argentina’s Poisoner of Montserrat, AKA a wannabe in every sense of the word. She wanted to be rich, elegant and seen as a high-society woman, so she started scamming her friends through a fake investment scheme. When those friends started asking for their money back, they began dying within weeks of each other after visits involving tea, pastries and suspicious digestive “remedies.” Autopsies later found cyanide.But the truly fucked part? After prison, Yiya became a pop culture celebrity in Argentina. All while the actual victims were reduced to footnotes in the story of the woman who killed them.This episode is a strong argument for checking angels’ feet, covering mirrors at night, and never accepting pastries from anyone described too many times as “elegant.”
