  • They don't tell complete stories of cases anymore. They only interview people promoting a new book or movie about cases

  • Maxim Furek you are fake…yikes!

    Your regurgitation of every bad book and movie on the demonic is a joke. OMG you dislike the Warrens yet everything out of your mouth is verbatim from all of their work. There IS NOT an exorcist at every parish. Any priest can come by and bless your home. That is vastly different than calling in an exorcist. One cannot just splash themselves with holy water and a crucifix and be protected. I get tired of “experts” who make mockery of my Catholic faith.

  • Great show, subscribed but endless adverts

    I’m a paid subscriber to Crawlspace/Missing but continue to get endless ads. Have tried every conceivable way to communicate this but ads keep coming and are completely ruining content. Please please sort this out.

  • Frustrated

    I used to enjoy this show and I still do enjoy the new episodes but they very frequently post old episodes on both missing and crawlspace and don’t usually inform you if the episode is old so I find myself halfway through an episode realizing I already listened to this episode months ago. I get very annoyed that I wasted my time. I might stop listening to both shows because I don’t want to waste my time and feel a little like I’m being tricked into listening to an episode more than once maybe fo... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

707 // Christa Pike And A Window Into Death W/ Dr. Tarvez Tucker
Q: What happened to Christa Pike neurologically during the execution process?
Tucker says Pike lost consciousness but did not enter a coma deep enough to cause death. He describes her recovery from unconsciousness to semi-consciousness and then the ability to communicate, while noting that her longer-term neurological outcome depends on her clinical recovery.
706 // The Spooky Aftermath of Rebecca Cornell's Mysterious Death
Q: And after going through the story, I kind of feel like he was innocent. What do you think?
Lester believes Thomas was innocent. She considers the wound described at the second inquest consistent with natural decomposition and says an accidental fall into the fire is a plausible explanation.
707 // Christa Pike And A Window Into Death W/ Dr. Tarvez Tucker
Q: Can you tell us how you use pentobarbital and how that differs from its use in an execution?
Tucker explains that dosage determines its effects. At clinical doses it reduces brain metabolism and can protect the brain during severe seizures; at higher doses it suppresses breathing and heart function and can cause death.
706 // The Spooky Aftermath of Rebecca Cornell's Mysterious Death
Q: So what do you think happened to Rebecca?
Susan Lester thinks Rebecca may have been unwell or dehydrated, suffered a stroke or heart attack, fallen, and rolled into the fire. She says the original house layout also suggests others may not have heard Rebecca call out.
703 // The Great Heist At The Louvre w/ James Longman
Q: Is it possible that this had an inside angle to it?
Longman says investigators have not established an inside job, but the thieves appeared to know about the vulnerable window, the cases and the camera coverage. He says the key question is whether it was a smash-and-grab or organized crime.
