    Episode 113: The Mysterious Murder of Billy Fee with Brandon Wagner

    Episode 113: THE MYSTERIOUS MURDER OF BILLY FEE WITH BRANDON WAGNER It was a hot, sticky night in August 1890 when Billy Fee fell into the dark depths of the Ohio River. No one confessed to his murder, no one was even charged. So maybe this is why his ghost has been seen lingering along the shoreline haunting all those who approach. Tonight Kat, Jen, and Christina welcome back guest artist Brandon Wagner to the show to discuss this cold case and his short story, the ‘Shanty Boat Murder Mystery’, in the new Cincinnati Cabinet of Curiosities comics anthology. Email us your hometown haunt story, and we will read it on our next episode! hometownhauntedmail@gmail.com Follow us on Social: @cincycabinetofcuriosities (Instagram) Cincinnati Cabinet of Curiosities (Facebook) News: Join Christina's SKETCHING AND PAINTING WORKSHOP in Tuscany, May 2025! https://www.lisastatkus.com/christina-wald-a-sketching-obsession-in-tuscany-may-7th-16-2025/ Follow Kat Klockow: https://www.patreon.com/redcatcomics/posts Kat's Web Toon Spiritus Maximus: https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/spiritus-maximus-resurrected-/list?title_no=906177 Follow Christina Wald: https://www.instagram.com/christinawald_art/ Christina’s Sketchy Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/christinawald Follow Jen Koehler : https://society6.com/jenkoehlerart?fb
