    Tape 16: Voice from Beyond the Grave: The Murder Of Teresita Basa

    Welcome, creeps... In this episode, we explore the strange murder of Teresita Basa. A case that may have been solved by the victim herself. Months after Teresita was murdered in her Chicago apartment, another woman began entering trance-like states and speaking in a voice claiming to be Teresita. The voice named her killer and revealed details about the crime that ultimately led investigators straight to a suspect. Was Teresita really speaking from beyond the grave, or is there another explanation for how her murder was solved?
