    Death in the Chat Room (William Melchert)

    On a cold Sunday in March 2008, an 18-year-old woman jumps off a bridge in Canada's capital, Ottawa. She sinks into the icy water and welcomes death to end the darkness that has consumed her mind. Three years before, a 32-year-old man hanged himself in his apartment in the city of Coventry in central England. He could see no other way out. The two apparently have nothing in common, but they both leave behind an open computer. It turns out that they have been active on the same online suicide forum. And they have been talking to the same person. From Podimo and Vespucci — this is The Darkness Vaults.

    Butchered in the Valley (Charles Kennedy)

    In 1870 New Mexico, few things get people in the saddle like the prospect of a bright and shiny future – especially in the form of gold. Big and small make pilgrimages to the mountains "Sangre de Cristo" (Blood of Christ) with an ambition and a hope to find both gold and green forests. But not everyone in the mountains considers gold to be the greatest treasure, and soon it is not only the blood of Christ that flows in the mountains. What dangers lurk in the borderlands besides bears and cougars? And how far are people willing to go for their dreams?

    Murder in Central Park (Daphne Abdela)

    At night, New York's Central Park turns into a dark labyrinth, where alcoholics, the homeless and rootless, and other people on the fringes of society meet in open spaces and under the cover of the shelter of trees and bushes. In May 1997, 44-year-old Michael McMorrow drinks with the wrong people and is later found brutally murdered in the park's large lake near Strawberry Fields. Two young people from very different backgrounds are charged with his murder. But what led the youngsters down to commit such a dark and depraved murder?

    The Bloody Trunk (Winnie Ruth Judd)

    In 1931, train workers detect a foul stench coming from a suitcase left at a Los Angeles train station. Initially, police think that the case contains illegally-smuggled meat, but when they open the suitcase, they discover a badly abused corpse. The story behind the macabre find centers on three women who lived together in a small apartment in Phoenix. What started as a strong friendship between them was put to the test when a 44-year-old man began to frequent their apartment - and started relationships with all three of them. The jealousy that ensued was a powerful force, that drove one woman to commit a heinous crime. From Podimo and Vespucci — this is The Darkness Vaults, released weekly on Wednesday.

    Murder in the Highlands (Fiona Torbett)

But after one such hike, she failed to return to her boarding house. What was initially assumed to be a tragic but simple hiking accident came to be viewed with suspicion, when it seemed that the boarding house manager's son may be hiding something. His many explanations ended up revealing a horrifying truth that shook the small local community. From Podimo and Vespucci — this is The Darkness Vaults, released weekly on Wednesday.

  • There aren’t many people who can say that they’ve had a Banksy statue in their back garden, but Andy Link is one of them. In 2004, he kidnapped one of Banksy’s pieces of art in broad daylight from the middle of central London, and held it to ransom. The fact that someone would kidnap a Banksy statue is pretty absurd already, but the story of why it happened, how the statue vanished again after it was kidnapped, and how it was mysteriously put up for auction over 10 years later is even wilder. It all comes down to 1 man, and a 2 decade long vendetta. The story will take us on a journey through UK’s most subversive sub-cultures: from art heists and art terrorists, to 80s football hooliganism, the 90s illegal rave scene, even fetish parties. While all the while, we try to track down one of the most elusive anonymous artists in the world. All to discover…who robs a Banksy?? From Podimo and Message Heard
