He's back from Hell's pit

Send us Fan MailA man walks into a Bronx speakeasy, drinks like it’s his full-time job, and accidentally becomes the toughest “target” a crew of would-be killers could have picked. We follow the real story of Michael Malloy, an Irish homeless alcoholic nicknamed Iron Mike, and the so-called Murder Trust that takes out life insurance policies and then tries everything to make his death look natural. Everything includes poisoned booze, antifreeze, rat poison, and even a hit-and-run that somehow still doesn’t do the job. It’s dark, it’s infuriating, and it’s one of the most unbelievable Prohibition true crime stories we’ve ever covered.Then we pivot into the paranormal with Houska Castle in the Czech Republic, a Gothic fortress tied to legends of a bottomless pit and a “gateway to hell.” We get into why people claim the castle feels built to keep something in, the chapel placed over the hole, the reports of whispers in unknown languages, shadow figures, and modern ghost-hunting accounts where equipment fails and fear spikes fast. We also talk possible explanations like limestone gases and disorientation, plus the darker theories about a concentrated hotspot of energy and time-slip style visions.If you like true crime history, haunted castles, and messy folklore with real-world stakes, hit play and come argue your favorite theory with us.
