Isn't it amazing how people try to make a "mystery" out of nothing ? The case here about Mary, the woman found dead inside the walls of her house is a good example. That "friend" who thinks that Mary was murdered must be a Soap Opera Queen for sure. Why would someone take an old woman into her attic to murder her when they had the whole house to do it ? If they murdered her beforehand, then why would someone carry a dead old woman up into an an attic just to dump her ? And what murderer would come up with the idea of pulling up a floorboard to throw the body down between the walls ? It seems that some people have such empty and meaningless lives that they must invent "mysteries" that aren't there just to make their life worth living. ... jkulik919@gmail.com
I'm from Childress, tx. Watch the original chainsaw massacre and you'll hear mention of our tiny rural town. Many drunken teenage night spent in the ghost town outside Childress where that supposedly happened scaring each other, ah good times.
A story similar to Freddie Mack's happened about 30 years ago, near where I used to live. By the local river, a middle-aged couple bought a little plot of land and turned it into a smallholding, filling it with goats, chickens, ducks, sheep, 2 cats and 2 dogs. They always seemed such happy and friendly people, with ready smiles and eager to chat whenever we used to stop and buy eggs from their roadside stall. Indeed, their life appeared so idyllic. However, after about 2 years, the wife suddenly ran off with a customer. It was a shock to everyone. Nobody suspected she'd been having an affair. Very shortly afterwards, the little roadside stall was no longer restocked and some of the animals were showing signs of distress. The police were contacted and they found what was left of the husband's body in the process of being eaten by his 2 dogs and cats. There was a gun beside his remains, the police declaring it a suicide. So very sad; he was such a nice man. I feel equally sorry for the police who found him too. What an awful scene to come upon.

I want to know!!!! I live in central Texas. We went to gator land in Beaumont and the energy was different not bad just different. It’s beautiful there.
Thank you for putting this collection together. I live in Houston but had never heard any of these stories except for the one about Mary Ceruti. That mystery had intrigued me since I first read about it just after the body had been found in her home, so I had periodically searched for updated information. I grew up near the Houston Heights where her home was located. That area was run down in the '70's when I was a teenager but had many beautiful turn-of-the-century homes, and I dreamed of living there one day. The area became in demand later since it's so convenient to downtown, and "yuppies" began buying and renovating the old homes. In the 2000's more modern town home complexes were replacing some of the cottages like Mary's and changing the atmosphere of the historic neighborhood--sad, but economically smart, too. One thing you didn't mention is that Mary supposedly had broken her hip some months prior to her disappearance, and though healed, it was still weak. The ceilings in those bungalows are high (circa 1900 architecture) so If she did indeed fall through the rotten floorboard into the space between the walls, she likely could not have climbed out, being short, and having an injured hip joint. When the full magnitude of what happened to her is contemplated, this is a horror story I don't like to dwell on!
I was thinking that more of the floor boards were probably missing at the time she fell through and then when the house was remodeled someone probably replaced several of the floor boards not thinking to look down between the walls. Which is creepy when you think about it because someone probably went into the attic and thought to themselves ‘ oh, I better fix that hole, someone could fall through that’. Obviously she didn’t fall through a space the size of one missing floor board.
It's that area ... the HEIGHTS .. it's very unique... the Art Car museum the last sat night of the month does a night time parade of their art cars thru the heights ( the flame throwing jeep rocks). Their is a night bike ride the 2nd sat of the month ( aprox 1500 ppl participate) the location / amount of historical buildings / charm and neighbor events is outstanding ! I love living in the heights... this will give you an idea about the area and property value... if her house were sold today it would have sold at the same auction for double the amount it did back then ( as a repo) www.har.com/houston-heights/homes-for-sale/672

The thing I like about your channel is that not only do you really take a deep dive in some well known cases but also present many stories I've never heard before and I sub to a lot of true crimers on YT.
I do love your work. You do also and it shows in the care with which your videos are made. Take care have a wonderful Christmas and a happy and prosperous New Year Regards Pat from New Jersey

I’m glad I adopted the Dwight Schrute theory of picking out a pet. I have a rat terrier. He’s cute and funny, but because he’s only a 20 pounder, I think I can over power him if he turns on me! 😂
Congratulations on the 100,000- it's a definite endorsement of your quality research and meticulous presentation. The true crime genre saturates a large part of UA-cam but your work stands up there amongst the best. I am absolutely certain more and more will get to know about it and that figure will keep on rising. Great work.
Not sure how I came across your video, but I've been mesmerized by these hideously sad stories. I love that you don't feel the need to be on screen or speak in dramatic tones. You've got a new sub in Canada.
All dogs will eat their owners if given the chance. That's why fire departments don't have Dalmations with them on fire calls anymore. There was a problem with the dogs eating the fire victims, dead or alive. Plus this guy had aggressive dogs that have less control of their primal instincts for hunting and attacking. Not the dog's fault at all.
@@eirenieve That's not true. The reason they don't use them anymore (for the most part) is because they're not needed. Long ago trained Dalmatians were basically used to clear the way and guide the fire-engine horses and keep them "in line" as it were. They didn't stop using them because they'd eat people. Honestly.
I’m so glad to have found your channel. I was born and raised here in Texas and have heard many scary stories , these were new to me! Congrats on your number of subscriptions. I am subscribing!!!
Fantastic to see a new video from you in my notifications. Congratulations on your subscriber numbers and hope you keep up the great work and get many, many more.
First time viewing and now subscribed. Very well put together grim stories. You and the channel 'Brief Case' have become high on my long list of subscribed channels.
Congratulations on making your first 100,000. I see that you are well on the way to your second! As always, your work is exemplary - well thought out and very well presented. BTW, I am a life-long Texican. My beloved state has many similar types of stories.
You wouldn't recognize cause from correlation. That's why you believe liars telling you what you want to hear. Capitalism is a pyramid scheme, built on the bones of the downtrodden. I hope you don't find this out the hard way
Congratulations on your 100,000 subscriptions. The UA-cam Algorithm may have directed me to your site but your well researched and very interesting videos made me a subscriber.
I randomly decided to watch this video... and then I was so surprised to see the story of Mary... I live super close to her house and was so sad when I heard what had happened to her. I think of her every time I drive by that street. 😔
@Billy The Kid i dont remember what its called, but i do know its around Edin. All of the buildings were straight from the early 1900s and there was road kill splattered everywhere
I know theres one around Groom... I saw it on google maps, possibly an old country home or remnant of a Route 66 town. Theres a cemetary across the street from it, and it looks quite small.
That Mary story kinda bugs me, because it seems like it would definitely be her, but I have to agree with the neighbor in that it seems like there's no way a body could just go down a space like that on it's own. At least not without way more damage to the surrounding floor. Maybe she was a very small woman but it just doesn't feel like it adds up.
I'd say it was just coincidental. I live around this area and have an attic floor board that is the same way. I'd say she fell through it and was lodged so tight between the two walls , she couldn't breath. This suffocating.
@@WiIdbiII My issue isn't the space between the walls, it's the hole in the floor. If the picture in the video is her attic floor, no way a person, even a frail old lady fits through there. Though it's possible that the picture is deceiving and the hole is bigger than it looks or there is damage to the surrounding boards you can't make out. If you have the same type of floor boards, could you give some sort of measurement about how wide it is? Could put some minds at ease and help your case.
@@thecorbohole3637 I've been in the metal building construction industry for over thirty years. I've worked on house remodels also. Sometimes instead of a standard wall consisting of studs, base board and sheet rock on both sides , I've seen where someone might have double walls . Most of the time I never questioned why , but sometimes it was evident that an additional room was added to an older small house. In the case of my house, the floor board I talk about is near an exterior wall which has a lot of larger water pipes running through that side. We just had duct work done here this year. The large duct which had been on the floor for over forty years always prevented any one in my house from stepping on that floor board. Our new ducts are suspended from the roof in the attic. So when I stepped on that area for the first time ever I was very surprised to feel it tilt beneath my feet. I will agree that this is an interesting case ( beings I'm a huge fan of the show forensic files) , but you know it's really true, real life is always stranger than fiction.
In the last 16 years of being interested in the horror community I've only heard one story about Fort Worth,TX, but Texas stories are awesome knowing I can get to them within a drive 🤩
Go down to the stockyards. There's an old hotel there that used to be a whorehouse back in the cattle drive days. U can walk thru and here about the ghost or go to mineral wells and tour the abandoned Baker hotel. Huge, spooky, building right out of a Steven King novel.
Now we execute prisoners in the most humane ways possible (lethal injection) and people *still* complain that it's too "inhumane" and worry they might "suffer". It's strange that the murderers never thought the same things about their victims.
You are headed for 200k very soon. It's exciting to watch your favourite channels grow, I assume others feel as I do, it's almost as if *we* are doing something special!(not to rob you of any lustre!)
I live in Texas and there’s a town that used to be called baby head bc they found a babies head on a pike as a warning to settlers to stop encroachment it’s called llano now.
Don't be on the llano HWY at night! I've traveled that HWY many times. Every time I did this trip at night , it took forever, but in the daytime, the trip was quicker.There is evil there. Even in 2020, you don't want to be doing this. This is no joke! Beware, never be out there traveling this hiway by yourself.
@@tamarawalker8973 Astro World was my fav place. I was so disappointed when they closed it down. It was really the only exciting attraction we had here. Now, we have, what? The Aquarium? No.
I hated they closed astroworld I wanted to take my babies when they turned 5 to enjoy some of the rides and damn when a month before they turned 5, astroworld was destroyed. Tear drop
East Tx here. I've heard of a few of these. The Big Thicket part of deep east Tx is full of strange stories. During the Civil War many vanished into the Big Thicket so they would not have to choose sides. They lived undisturbed for decades. As development has encroached, skeletons and other evidence is occasionally found. Years ago a civil war era skeleton was found high up in an old oak tree. Theory was that in the days cougars still roamed the Big Thicket, one killed a man and stashed his body in a tree for later consumption.
Wow first time seeing one of your videos and you hit that one out of the park. I've lived in the Houston area for 35 years and never heard a single one of those stories before.
Why would we 🤭 lol. I only want to go to Japan, Ireland, and Scotland. We can guess how the rest of America is. Stuck up, mean, rude, pretty much the complete opposite of Texas. So I'd rather just stay here.
Abrian me 2 here in MW in the shadow of The Baker hotel and the Crazy hotel both are haunted . I'm old man now But you & I share same last name so I will die forever Young here in Crazy Town Texas !
Much love from TX! I can confirm there’s a bunch of superstition around here, and I’ve heard a lot of crazy stories about my state. La llarona sends a chill up my spine every time I think of her.
@@Cheeseburger.Launch.Sequence lol. Don't come to Texas. You're not welcome and I promise, you will say something stupid to one of my fellow Texans, and you will regret it.
I'm from Northeast Texas. Besides the New London explosion you should check out Jefferson, Texas. Lots of interesting history. Oh & I forgot Caddo Lake.
Visit Texas City Texas. East Side. 1947 Explosion. That area is ghetto and haunted. I spent many nights out on the streets when I was younger. Saw some crazy stuff.
I will check your places out. If you go to Texas City. Check out the Davidson home. It is a big Victorian style home in the hood. Mrs. Davidson was nearly decapitated by an escaped inmate. Inmate beat her head off. Used to be a rich area. Then a thousand people dead.
Your topics brought me here to this channel. I followed you on my last & only other account. I love the details of the story you give! I will keep following 😃
You only have to go back to 1930 I wish we had that kind of action today I really do you wouldn't have all this child abuse and b******* that's why people do it nowadays because I know they had Life Behind Bars and get fed and dazed and cuddled did you hear what he said he beg the crowd for his forgiveness and they just heckled him God I wish I was there to watch that bring it back Lord the real death penalty
I can't imagine how lonely and disturbed he must have been. Even though me and my mom have problems sometimes I try to remember that she's not going to be around forever and that I should cherish this time.
You should do The Servant Girl Killer (Servant Girl Annihilator) Of Austin TX in the late Victorian era! Never solved, some experts think it could have been Jack the Ripper! Love your channel, everything you do is great 👍🏼
You should look into the New London school explosion in New London, TX. My grandmother and her siblings were students there, but were out of school after the death of their mother 2 months prior.
christine paris It truly was. I didn’t learn about it until I was doing genealogy research and a found a great aunt in a New London yearbook. It seems it’s been forgotten by most of the world. It’s a story worth being told though.
@@LillibitOfHere I agree! It might be of interest for you, to write an article about it and your relationship with the event,for Texas Monthly, or another big magazine. I feel strongly that these events should always be memorialized and given respect, partly to prevent them from happening again, but also to give young people understanding of history that is so personal, and important. I grew up in the Bay Area of San Francisco, in the 1960s, and every year there was a memorial for the 1906 earthquake. When I was young, there were still survivors! They would always be featured on the news and tell their stories every year. It gave me an intense, personal interest in history that has never faded. It made my connection to where I lived strong. I have been in Texas for 35 years, and feel the same about my home here. I found I have relatives here from the 1800s! It gives you such a sense of belonging. I hope you do write about it. Every perspective is important.
being from the Golden triangle I can promise you none of this is surprising. There are many more gruesome murders than this. I was living in the suburbs of a town near Houston in the early 90s and near the Goodson Ranch they were finding missing bodies covered by trash along the railways. Or the Jasper dragging of Byrd, or the hate crime in Kilgore or Kileen, How about the lady doing time because she ran an assisted living out of her home and the residents were being OD'd on narcotics and burried in the back yard so she could continue to collect their pension payments...or the illegals in faux walls in a couple houses in Houston where the cartels are trafficking.... NASA lady drove from Kemah to Florida with an adult diapers to hurt her boyfriend's wife, the woman that claims God told her to kill her children...much much more in Texas
@@haveaniceday7767 Did you hear of the "Slave Ranch" in Kerrville, Texas? They were a whole group pretending to help people get into the country from Mexico and then literally enslaving them to work for their ranch and business. I think it was in the 80s. Kerrville was like the Bible Capitol then, but there were terrible things going on there... When I worked a short stint (thank god) for an employment firm, the biggest law firms would hire these girls as file clerks who had just come over from Mexico. They hired very bright young girls and train them to be paralegals and law clerks but paid them 2 dollars an hour. Of course they were also used as entertainment for the lawyers too. These girls were sometimes the only ones speaking english and supporting the whole family. They were exploited in every possible way. By the most reputable firms. I found out by accident when a girl I had sent to get a job at one of our big clients broke down and told me what was really going on. I was young and very naive. I didn't know then that people could do those things. I raised hell but my employer knew and didn't care. I left. I've heard all the crap talked about immigrants since I moved here, and in 30 years I've learned that if jesus christ himself walked across the border, the only thing people would see is his skin color and he'd be lucky to get a job cutting grass. There are good people and bad people everywhere, but when people dump all the ills of society onto one group, they're hiding real evil of their own...
I remember when the Mary ladies body was found. I though about how tragic is was. To see the place you loved be over run by high rises and have your life upended. I never heard whether it was accident( which is mentioned here) or murder. I had a weird feeling it was murder because of her being outspoken on what was happening to the area. I guess we may never know for sure.
She was definitely murdered by a real estate developer. Since the police are part of the city government controlled by rich developers, the truth will be covered up.
Despite the title, I should have specified Atlanta, Texas during the intro. Obviously I didn't mean Atlanta, Georgia.
I thought it was clear and was not confused at all. Thanks for another great video!
Now you know why we Yanks are always so insistent on specifying "London, England," and "Paris, France": we can't even count on the place names to change between STATES over here!
Don't worry that's ok, it was not confusing.

A story similar to Freddie Mack's happened about 30 years ago, near where I used to live.
By the local river, a middle-aged couple bought a little plot of land and turned it into a smallholding, filling it with goats, chickens, ducks, sheep, 2 cats and 2 dogs. They always seemed such happy and friendly people, with ready smiles and eager to chat whenever we used to stop and buy eggs from their roadside stall. Indeed, their life appeared so idyllic.

The thing I like about your channel is that not only do you really take a deep dive in some well known cases but also present many stories I've never heard before and I sub to a lot of true crimers on YT.
I recommend your channel to many of my friends that enjoy this genre.
Bright Eyez - Have you tried "Brief Case"?. Concentrates on one case each time but as good as this channel.
I do love your work. You do also and it shows in the care with which your videos are made. Take care have a wonderful Christmas and a happy and prosperous New Year Regards Pat from New Jersey
Hi from Bonnie Scotland. I’m a new subscriber.
So, what do you want, a godamn medal
Welcome aboard, and ignore rude jackasses like the ugly, previous, come ter! I'm happy to know a new fan has discovered great entertainment! ❤️
@@dougyohooglefrogtownrovers9017did being a rude bully improve your day? Did it make you hate yourself any less?
I hope you're doing well, my Scottish Lass!
After 10 days on an (internet-free) holiday, we come back to this masterpiece! Excellent as always (and a particularly disturbing collection too!) Looking forward to your reaching 250,000 subscribers in the next few months!
I’m glad I adopted the Dwight Schrute theory of picking out a pet. I have a rat terrier. He’s cute and funny, but because he’s only a 20 pounder, I think I can over power him if he turns on me! 😂
Im sure they ate him after he passed. They had to be starving to do such a thing.
"Rat Terrier" lol yep might manage a few chews of a toe nail 😂
Greetings from Texas! Thanks so much for the upload. Did not even know we had an Atlanta.
Congratulations on the 100,000- it's a definite endorsement of your quality research and meticulous presentation. The true crime genre saturates a large part of UA-cam but your work stands up there amongst the best. I am absolutely certain more and more will get to know about it and that figure will keep on rising. Great work.
Thanks so much, Mike.
Not sure how I came across your video, but I've been mesmerized by these hideously sad stories. I love that you don't feel the need to be on screen or speak in dramatic tones. You've got a new sub in Canada.
I love your videos. They are so interesting and you do amazing research. Please keep them coming.
Eaten by your own dogs... Great.. Now that's in my head.
All dogs will eat their owners if given the chance. That's why fire departments don't have Dalmations with them on fire calls anymore. There was a problem with the dogs eating the fire victims, dead or alive. Plus this guy had aggressive dogs that have less control of their primal instincts for hunting and attacking. Not the dog's fault at all.
@@eirenieve That's not true. The reason they don't use them anymore (for the most part) is because they're not needed. Long ago trained Dalmatians were basically used to clear the way and guide the fire-engine horses and keep them "in line" as it were. They didn't stop using them because they'd eat people. Honestly.
@@soundguydon I guess you didn't get a master's in pathology and forensic history. LOL
@@angrybear86, sorry, not kidding. Read Death to Dust: What Happens to Dead Bodies? By Kenneth V. Iserson.
I wonder if they ate the 2 other dogs they had killed too or just the owner....
I’m so glad to have found your channel. I was born and raised here in Texas and have heard many scary stories , these were new to me! Congrats on your number of subscriptions. I am subscribing!!!
Thanks, Evelyn.
Fantastic to see a new video from you in my notifications. Congratulations on your subscriber numbers and hope you keep up the great work and get many, many more.
Thank you, Tony.
First time viewing and now subscribed. Very well put together grim stories. You and the channel 'Brief Case' have become high on my long list of subscribed channels.
We, sincerely appreciate YOU! Just saying, it takes more than one to see and appreciate what a Curious World we live in!
Congrats! Great channel and I love your voice!😃👍🏼
Congratulations on making your first 100,000. I see that you are well on the way to your second! As always, your work is exemplary - well thought out and very well presented. BTW, I am a life-long Texican. My beloved state has many similar types of stories.
There were many stories. I could have done several videos.
Love your videos and appreciate all your hard work. Happy to hear it's paying off. You do such excellent work !
NOW THAT'S CITIZENS GIVING A PROPER JUSTICE TO A CRAZY BASTARD..GOOD ON THEM
Mary was murdered. A cat lover would never allow her cats to not be cared for.
But falling through that craaaaack tho
Yeah it probably had something to do with her fighting for her home no doubt
So sorry Mary, RIP. So sad to fight for your home and end up like this 😢
I came late to the 100,000 subs game, but I've been here a few months and love your work, Friend. God bless you. Keep up the great work!
I appreciate the kind words. Thanks for following my channel, it means a lot.
Your kind bind together. Like fasces
You wouldn't recognize cause from correlation. That's why you believe liars telling you what you want to hear. Capitalism is a pyramid scheme, built on the bones of the downtrodden. I hope you don't find this out the hard way
Congratulations on your 100,000 subscriptions. The UA-cam Algorithm may have directed me to your site but your well researched and very interesting videos made me a subscriber.
Either way, thanks for the sub, Canadagirl.
I randomly decided to watch this video... and then I was so surprised to see the story of Mary... I live super close to her house and was so sad when I heard what had happened to her. I think of her every time I drive by that street. 😔
Is the house still standing.?
@@rrios283s73 Yes.
These cases extremely puzzle me, many make zero sense.
I think when she went before the city council to protest, it was down hill from there, sadly
Just found your channel tonight and subscribed. I look forward to listening to more stories!
Im from Texas, and i dare my fellow Texans to visit some of the ghost towns around these parts
@Billy The Kid i dont remember what its called, but i do know its around Edin. All of the buildings were straight from the early 1900s and there was road kill splattered everywhere
East Texas towns at night. Super creepy.
@@Vex595 oh definitely, i stayed in Llano one summer and the river houses were very terrifying, especially with all the mad deer running around
I'm from ft worth and I've been to quite a few different places and I've seen quite a bit.
I know theres one around Groom... I saw it on google maps, possibly an old country home or remnant of a Route 66 town. Theres a cemetary across the street from it, and it looks quite small.
I love this channel and I love that we have our friends from Texas watching too! Love from London 😘
That Mary story kinda bugs me, because it seems like it would definitely be her, but I have to agree with the neighbor in that it seems like there's no way a body could just go down a space like that on it's own. At least not without way more damage to the surrounding floor. Maybe she was a very small woman but it just doesn't feel like it adds up.
Exactly. I wondered if it had anything to do with the construction company.
@@CuriousWorldProductions 😱😱
As in, causing a nuisance to them? 😰🤔😨
I'd say it was just coincidental. I live around this area and have an attic floor board that is the same way. I'd say she fell through it and was lodged so tight between the two walls , she couldn't breath. This suffocating.
@@WiIdbiII My issue isn't the space between the walls, it's the hole in the floor. If the picture in the video is her attic floor, no way a person, even a frail old lady fits through there. Though it's possible that the picture is deceiving and the hole is bigger than it looks or there is damage to the surrounding boards you can't make out. If you have the same type of floor boards, could you give some sort of measurement about how wide it is? Could put some minds at ease and help your case.
@@thecorbohole3637 I've been in the metal building construction industry for over thirty years. I've worked on house remodels also. Sometimes instead of a standard wall consisting of studs, base board and sheet rock on both sides , I've seen where someone might have double walls . Most of the time I never questioned why , but sometimes it was evident that an additional room was added to an older small house. In the case of my house, the floor board I talk about is near an exterior wall which has a lot of larger water pipes running through that side. We just had duct work done here this year. The large duct which had been on the floor for over forty years always prevented any one in my house from stepping on that floor board. Our new ducts are suspended from the roof in the attic. So when I stepped on that area for the first time ever I was very surprised to feel it tilt beneath my feet. I will agree that this is an interesting case ( beings I'm a huge fan of the show forensic files) , but you know it's really true, real life is always stranger than fiction.
Popped up randomly on my feed. Liked and subscribed. Thank you !!
In the last 16 years of being interested in the horror community I've only heard one story about Fort Worth,TX, but Texas stories are awesome knowing I can get to them within a drive 🤩
I'm from Ft Worth. There are a lot of creepy stories there
True ones, study the history.
Ft Worth Texas born and raised.. Southside 81G💪🏿💯🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱
I’d love to hear stories about ft worth, I’ve never heard anything weird about the city before
Go down to the stockyards. There's an old hotel there that used to be a whorehouse back in the cattle drive days. U can walk thru and here about the ghost or go to mineral wells and tour the abandoned Baker hotel. Huge, spooky, building right out of a Steven King novel.

Im from Texas and I thought I heard every unsolved or murder case from Texas . Thanks for finding ones I've never heard well done love your channel 💜
Murdered a family, got lynched and burned at the stake. Yeah... seems about right. Ahh the good old days.
@xisobelx373 The repeat offender rate might.
Now we execute prisoners in the most humane ways possible (lethal injection) and people *still* complain that it's too "inhumane" and worry they might "suffer". It's strange that the murderers never thought the same things about their victims.
Yep
*+Carolyn Gair*
Ohhh! So that's what they mean by *Make America great Again*
It'd be especially good if they'd been incorrect 1% of the time, that's bonified justice
You are headed for 200k very soon. It's exciting to watch your favourite channels grow, I assume others feel as I do, it's almost as if *we* are doing something special!(not to rob you of any lustre!)
Hello from New Zealand. Brilliant as always. Touché to you.
I live in Texas and there’s a town that used to be called baby head bc they found a babies head on a pike as a warning to settlers to stop encroachment it’s called llano now.
Baby head mountain. Heading towards San Saba.
Don't be on the llano HWY at night! I've traveled that HWY many times. Every time I did this trip at night , it took forever, but in the daytime, the trip was quicker.There is evil there. Even in 2020, you don't want to be doing this. This is no joke! Beware, never be out there traveling this hiway by yourself.
I'm in Buchanan Dam, going by Baby Head even in the daytime is creepy. Hwy 71& 281 towards Johnson City as well at night.
I should have mentioned Al Lackey!!!, read about it, and stay off 281 at night...
@@bucsam1660 Omg! Y'all are a plethora of info!! Reading on it now.

It's so odd hearing these stories about your city, lol. Houston never gets a shout out! Lol.
My first job was in Alameda mall, in 78. Astroworld was my favorite place. My dad worked for NASA.
@@tamarawalker8973 Astro World was my fav place. I was so disappointed when they closed it down. It was really the only exciting attraction we had here. Now, we have, what? The Aquarium? No.
Only got to go to Astroworld once as a kid lol
I hated they closed astroworld I wanted to take my babies when they turned 5 to enjoy some of the rides and damn when a month before they turned 5, astroworld was destroyed. Tear drop
Go buy a scew tape lol
Holy cow these videos are SO good! Please up the good work and I can’t wait to see “Dark tales from North Carolina”!
these stories definitely remind me how the everyday & banal hold tragic horrors more dreadful than any supernatural mysteries
Goes to show you that your life can't be turned upside down in just a heartbeat. From normal to life ending. 😳
So I was watching ASMR & I ended up here! 😂😂 love your channel, definitely a new family member 🔔👍
East Tx here. I've heard of a few of these. The Big Thicket part of deep east Tx is full of strange stories. During the Civil War many vanished into the Big Thicket so they would not have to choose sides. They lived undisturbed for decades. As development has encroached, skeletons and other evidence is occasionally found. Years ago a civil war era skeleton was found high up in an old oak tree. Theory was that in the days cougars still roamed the Big Thicket, one killed a man and stashed his body in a tree for later consumption.
Thanks for a great channel , im very happy to have come across your content !
That was 26 minutes that I'll never forget. Like and thank you
I like 15 mins from Atlanta, Texas never heard of that before but I enjoyed pausing the video and looking at the old map and knowing the names

You left out one of the best Texas stories there is. The story of the headless horseman. That is true!
I love your videos. So easy to watch and well done. And no strident music.
I'm from Northeast Texas. Besides the New London explosion you should check out Jefferson, Texas. Lots of interesting history.
Oh & I forgot Caddo Lake.
Jefferson is pretty, in a way, but it gives off weird vibes. And it does have lots of interesting history
Visit Texas City Texas. East Side. 1947 Explosion. That area is ghetto and haunted. I spent many nights out on the streets when I was younger. Saw some crazy stuff.
Dude I’m from Marshall Tx literally right down the road from Jefferson
I will check your places out. If you go to Texas City. Check out the Davidson home. It is a big Victorian style home in the hood. Mrs. Davidson was nearly decapitated by an escaped inmate. Inmate beat her head off. Used to be a rich area. Then a thousand people dead.
Plus all the murders there. It is really haunted.

I am from Atlanta and I have never heard that story in all my years there.
You only have to go back to 1930 I wish we had that kind of action today I really do you wouldn't have all this child abuse and b******* that's why people do it nowadays because I know they had Life Behind Bars and get fed and dazed and cuddled did you hear what he said he beg the crowd for his forgiveness and they just heckled him God I wish I was there to watch that bring it back Lord the real death penalty
I can't imagine how lonely and disturbed he must have been. Even though me and my mom have problems sometimes I try to remember that she's not going to be around forever and that I should cherish this time.
You should do The Servant Girl Killer (Servant Girl Annihilator) Of Austin TX in the late Victorian era!
Never solved, some experts think it could have been Jack the Ripper!
Love your channel, everything you do is great 👍🏼
I looked at that one. The only reason I didn't cover it is because there are already a few lengthy videos on her.

You should look into the New London school explosion in New London, TX. My grandmother and her siblings were students there, but were out of school after the death of their mother 2 months prior.
That was a horrific incident!!
christine paris It truly was. I didn’t learn about it until I was doing genealogy research and a found a great aunt in a New London yearbook. It seems it’s been forgotten by most of the world. It’s a story worth being told though.
@@LillibitOfHere
I agree! It might be of interest for you, to write an article about it and your relationship with the event,for Texas Monthly, or another big magazine. I feel strongly that these events should always be memorialized and given respect, partly to prevent them from happening again, but also to give young people understanding of history that is so personal, and important. I grew up in the Bay Area of San Francisco, in the 1960s, and every year there was a memorial for the 1906 earthquake. When I was young, there were still survivors! They would always be featured on the news and tell their stories every year. It gave me an intense, personal interest in history that has never faded. It made my connection to where I lived strong. I have been in Texas for 35 years, and feel the same about my home here. I found I have relatives here from the 1800s! It gives you such a sense of belonging. I hope you do write about it. Every perspective is important.
being from the Golden triangle I can promise you none of this is surprising. There are many more gruesome murders than this. I was living in the suburbs of a town near Houston in the early 90s and near the Goodson Ranch they were finding missing bodies covered by trash along the railways.
Or the Jasper dragging of Byrd, or the hate crime in Kilgore or Kileen, How about the lady doing time because she ran an assisted living out of her home and the residents were being OD'd on narcotics and burried in the back yard so she could continue to collect their pension payments...or the illegals in faux walls in a couple houses in Houston where the cartels are trafficking.... NASA lady drove from Kemah to Florida with an adult diapers to hurt her boyfriend's wife, the woman that claims God told her to kill her children...much much more in Texas
@@haveaniceday7767
Did you hear of the "Slave Ranch" in Kerrville, Texas? They were a whole group pretending to help people get into the country from Mexico and then literally enslaving them to work for their ranch and business. I think it was in the 80s. Kerrville was like the Bible Capitol then, but there were terrible things going on there...
When I worked a short stint (thank god) for an employment firm, the biggest law firms would hire these girls as file clerks who had just come over from Mexico. They hired very bright young girls and train them to be paralegals and law clerks but paid them 2 dollars an hour. Of course they were also used as entertainment for the lawyers too. These girls were sometimes the only ones speaking english and supporting the whole family. They were exploited in every possible way. By the most reputable firms. I found out by accident when a girl I had sent to get a job at one of our big clients broke down and told me what was really going on. I was young and very naive. I didn't know then that people could do those things. I raised hell but my employer knew and didn't care. I left. I've heard all the crap talked about immigrants since I moved here, and in 30 years I've learned that if jesus christ himself walked across the border, the only thing people would see is his skin color and he'd be lucky to get a job cutting grass. There are good people and bad people everywhere, but when people dump all the ills of society onto one group, they're hiding real evil of their own...
Love your stories, always very interesting. I want more!! ☮️💜
I remember when the Mary ladies body was found. I though about how tragic is was. To see the place you loved be over run by high rises and have your life upended. I never heard whether it was accident( which is mentioned here) or murder. I had a weird feeling it was murder because of her being outspoken on what was happening to the area. I guess we may never know for sure.
She was definitely murdered by a real estate developer. Since the police are part of the city government controlled by rich developers, the truth will be covered up.
Lady's
