  1. The Montauk Project: Secret Government Experiments at Camp Hero / Pt. 1

    The Montauk Project: Secret Government Experiments at Camp Hero / Pt. 1

    At the very edge of Long Island sits Camp Hero, a decommissioned Cold War military base overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Officially, it was built during World War II to defend the coastline and later became a radar station designed to detect incoming Soviet aircraft. But over time, the base became connected to one of the most disturbing conspiracy stories in American history: The Montauk Project.According to those who claim to know the truth, Camp Hero wasn’t just a radar base. It was allegedly the site of secret government experiments involving mind control, psychological manipulation, and even time travel. In this two-part episode, we talk documented history to conspiracy lore. We explore the real Cold War programs that shaped public fear, including MKUltra, Project ARTICHOKE, and Project Stargate, and examine how those confirmed experiments blurred the line between fact and fiction. From radar towers and sealed underground tunnels to psychic research and the infamous Philadelphia Experiment, the story of Montauk forces us to ask an uncomfortable question: How much of this is conspiracy… and how much is history we still don’t fully understand?——🎧 Macabre Mondays is a true crime and paranormal podcast hosted by Alejandra and her husband Tom.

    The Murder of Cassie Jo Stoddart

    On September 22, 2006, in Pocatello, Idaho, sixteen year old Cassie Jo Stoddart agreed to house sit for her aunt and uncle. It was supposed to be a quiet Friday night. She invited friends over to watch a movie. By the end of the evening, everyone left. Except Cassie. Two days later, her family returned home and found her in the living room. As investigators worked through the timeline, they uncovered something deeply disturbing. The people responsible had recorded themselves beforehand, referencing the horror movie Scream/Ghost face and discussing their desire to make their own slasher style movie. They spoke about becoming remembered. About creating something shocking.

    The Greenbrier Ghost: When the Dead Spoke in Court

    In January of 1897, a young bride named Zona Heaster Shue was found dead at the bottom of a staircase in rural West Virginia. The doctor ruled it a natural death. The case was closed. But her mother refused to accept that answer. Weeks later, Mary Jane Heaster claimed her daughter appeared to her and revealed how she really died. What followed was the exhumation of Zona’s body, a shocking autopsy, and a murder trial that would become one of the most unusual in American history. Did a ghost truly solve her own murder, or did a grieving mother simply refuse to let her daughter’s death be ignored? This is the story of the Greenbrier Ghost.---   ---   ---🎧 Macabre Mondays is a true crime and paranormal podcast hosted by Alejandra and her husband Tom.

    The Flannan Isles Lighthouse Mystery

    In December of 1900, three experienced lighthouse keepers were stationed on a remote island off the coast of Scotland known as the Flannan Isles. They followed strict routines. They recorded the weather. They prepared the light. Then one night, the light didn’t come on. When a relief ship arrived days later, the lighthouse was intact. The work had been completed. Nothing inside suggested panic or fear. But the men were gone. In this episode, we break down what is fact, what is theory, and what was added later through folklore. From official investigation reports to modern maritime analysis, we explore whether this century-old disappearance is truly an unsolved mystery, or something far more unsettling.

    Ken McElroy: Skidmore's Town Bully

    This episode marks our first listener submission of 2026, and it comes from listener Barbara! Who suggested one of the most infamous and unsettling cases in small town history. We are heading to Skidmore, Missouri, to tell the story of Ken Rex McElroy, a man many locals described as the town bully. For years, McElroy was accused of violent crimes, intimidation, and terrorizing his neighbors, yet time and time again, he avoided prison. Witnesses backed out. Cases collapsed. Fear took over. On July 10, 1981, in broad daylight, Ken McElroy was shot and killed in front of dozens of people. No one claimed to see who fired the shots. No one was ever charged.In this episode, we walk through who Ken McElroy was, how a small farming town reached its breaking point, what happened the day he was killed, and what became of Skidmore after the cameras left. We also unpack the investigation, the FBI’s involvement, Trena McElroy’s accusations, and why this case still unsettles people decades later.—🎧 Macabre Mondays is a true crime and paranormal podcast hosted by Alejandra and her husband Tom.

    The Baby on the Highway: Carlee Russell

    In July 2023, a 911 call out of Hoover, Alabama stopped the country cold. A young woman reported seeing a toddler wandering alone on the side of a highway, and then she vanished. For two days, the nation searched. Families prayed. Warnings spread. Fear took hold. Then she came back. In this episode of Macabre Mondays, we announce the giveaway winners and walk through the case of Carlee Russell. We unpack how this story unfolded in real time, why so many people believed it, how the narrative slowly began to crack, and the lasting damage caused when fear spreads faster than truth. — 🎧 Macabre Mondays is a true crime and paranormal podcast hosted by Alejandra and her husband Tom.
