Our old dear friend from Seattle moved to Humboldt, got really good at managing weed farms, made a ton of money playing poker at a long running stoner’s game, got into a little trouble, fell in love, started a family and ended up in prison. This all happened during a prime handful of years that took place during the Murder Mountain stories we told …

In 1993, the Coke vs Pepsi "Cola Wars" were raging. Which soda pop would dominate taste buds and consumer loyalty across the globe? We're not sure how attuned to history you might be, but just FYI, there were other things going in the world too - in The Philippines for instance. They had just had a hugely controversial election and devastating natu…

Wealthy people say the darnedest things - sometimes in accents stolen from Gilligan’s Island, sometimes in Klingon. A scammer infiltrates the 1%, skeletons are found, and one sci-fi fan is never heard from or seen again. This story spans decades, continents, and socioeconomic extremes. Welcome to the life of Clark Rockefeller and too many AKAs to n…

The Rolling Stones put on free concert and Meredith Hunter paid the ultimate price. The Woodstock-style show was a complete disaster from the very beginning - think Fyre Festival from 1969. Bad acid, Hell’s Angels, speed, the promise of peace and love, and a gun that showed up to a knife fight. To support the show and unlock exclusive episodes of M…

Sadistic serial killing in one of the most fancy estates in German occupied France. This one is pretty much all the most evil forces coming together at once, and, lucky for you, Muriel made it a two-parter. Based on “The Unspeakable Crimes of Dr. Petoit” by Thomas Maeder. (“Unspeakable” unless you’re Muriel that is.) Part Two will be released early…

The body of a beloved community leader is found in the marsh and no one can find the three suspects. What is found is a community center basement full of stockpiled military equipment, years of embezzled non-profit funds, angry letters from law enforcement demanding the mayor do something about one of their own, and retired cops coming out of the w…

Imagine the craziest dance club you’ve ever been too. Then add in whatever ludicrous, grotesque, comical, disgusting whimsy you can fathom. Multiply that by ten, throw in every drug known to NYC in the ‘80s and ‘90s and you’ve got an average Wednesday night for Michael Alig. Angel Melendez entered this absurd world and never made it to the exit. Mu…

A hero with a hatchet takes the internet by storm and surfs too close to the sun. Showbiz people get involved, hubris charts its inevitable path, and the ugliness of violence snubs out a potential star. This really is one of the craziest episodes Muriel has ever put together. Definitely watch the original Kai interview on YouTube: https://www.youtu…

For the first time here on Muriel's Murders, our episode is about an alleged crime happening right now. Brought to Muriel's attention by Sammi and Rose from Australia, this story is unfolding as we speak... basically a family was poisoned by deadly mushrooms by way of Beef Wellington and there is a "person of interest." This all take place in Austr…

The best martial artist in the country meets the worst man in the world, varying degrees of truth and justice emerge, buried treasure, NASA, the Pentagon, grandfathers, the mafia and a true-crime legend all get involved.

A junk food eating, cigarette smoking, money making sleaze ball groomed impoverished teenage girls, married a bunch of them, and got three of them pregnant. Throw guns, pills, amnesia, data recovery and Garfield (that lasagne loving orange cartoon cat) in the mix and you have the basic ingredients for a family tragedy. Meet Linda, Patty, Cinnamon a…

Massage parlors in Madison, Wisconsin of the 1970s and 80s were red hot and ice cold. Muriel greases us up with a classic tale of orgies, murders, Quaaludes, and the evil side of biochemistry. Barbara Hoffman was a brilliant scientist in the streets and a freak in the sheets. However you like it, steamy or frozen solid, this episode has it all. Mur…

Eating humans, drinking booze, robbing gold, escaping the law, cross country murder sprees, Mormon vigilantes, the bribery of an entire town and a renegade crooked sheriff who briefly controlled the state of Montana. We're heading to the Wild West for the eyebrow-raising tale of Levi Boone Helm the Kentucky Cannibal. Muriel read "The Kentucky Canni…

A suave preacher, all his murdered family members, accusations of voodoo, and literary royalty get thrown into Muriel’s brew this week. Toying with Nick’s highfalutin tendencies, Muriel read Casey Cep’s “Furious Hours: Murder, Fraud, and the Last Trial of Harper Lee” and tells the tale of six brutal deaths and how the impossible, grumpy genius who …

Starboard-crossed lovers Stephanie Stearns and Buck Walker had Hawaiian hippy dreams and a nightmarish relationship with reality. Meet the couple who knew nothing about sailing except that you could buy an old boat, teach yourself how to fix it up, and sail away from all the bummers of your life. Throw a handful of dogs, a few psychedelics, and a h…

Nightmares come alive as Buck and Stephanie take nearly a month to reach their deserted island - a trip that should have taken a week. Plus, once they get there it ain’t so deserted. Besides way too many sharks and poisonous fish, it turns out there are quite the handful of people as well. We meet “The Mayor” and Mac-n-Muff. Sleep tight, don’t let …

The deep blue waters are Mac-n-Muff’s world and everyone else is just attempting survival in it. Enter a life of Magellan-style wisdom, Moroccan pirates, machetes, and marriages held hostage to the sea. Buck and Stephanie find themselves on the bottom of a social-hierarchy they were truly convinced they had escaped, and a few people who seem like t…

The deafening terror of radio silence reverberates across the South Pacific and just about everything begins to look like a murder weapon. How many ways can two couples alone on an island push each other to the edge? Plus, what ever happened to The Doobie Brothers? The Micky Mouse Club gets involved, as does the FBI, and Stephanie’s hiding skills a…

The “murders” part of this story hits home. It ain’t pretty. Plenty of ego, lots of lies, terrible writing, scary amounts of heroin, and a prison break that makes Nick do a double take. You did it, now go check out Muriel’s Yacht Rock playlist. Thanks Anj for the DM. Love you all. This is the fifth and final part of The Palmyra Atoll Murders - a Mu…

Island sexiness, starvation, nihilism, Dorian Gray, dirty films, fake philosophers, pretend pirates, complaining to customer service, ship wrecks, swollen tongues, rotten flesh, and MURDER.

Nurse vs Hitman. It's a Battle Royale for the ages. Full episode available at www.patreon.com/murielsmurders Thanks for the love.

Henry ends, and then Muriel tells us how he began. It ain’t pretty, but it’s the finale and there are fireworks galore - the disturbing kind of fireworks that kinda look like mutilated animals, broken homes, lost kids, and injustice served. Stick around and find out if you and Nick are thinking about the same thing at the very end, and see if you c…
