Baking a Murderer

Baking a Murderer

By Amaris Riddle

We are two girls who run a vegan bakery in Deep Ellum, Texas. We love true crime, and baking, thus Baking a Murderer was born. Our podcast covers all the crimes you've come to obsess over, a few you've never heard of, and of course, a hefty dash of paranormal stories. (Because true crime isn't terrifying enough, right?) Each week we bake a new treat that goes along with the theme of our episode, so get ready to crave more than just true crime. -Amaris & Soto

Episode 12: Black Eyed Children

Episode 12: Black Eyed Children

Tomorrow is the best day of the year, Halloween, so we thought it would be the perfect time to do an episode on the eerie legend of black eyed children. So grab some vegan candy, a blanket, maybe a little adult beverage and settle in for a spooky story that will make you think twice before answering your door.

Episode 11: Kentucky Teenage Vampires (Rod Ferrell)

Episode 11: Kentucky Teenage Vampires (Rod Ferrell)

Teenage vampires in Kentucky? Sounds like a bad Twilight spinoff, unfortunately that would be way better than this true story about a group of teens who believe themselves to be real vampires, and one member, Rod, who took this dark road way too far.

This episode is on the lighter side, but still pretty gruesome at times, so listeners beware.
