  • Interesting

    Yes, this may not be the most polished podcast you have heard. But I am listening to the Vanishing Triangle series which I am really enjoying. I am finding out nuggets I didn’t know before and am liking the practical way they are looking at each case. I feel like I am there with them speculating and picking a part each case. Am coming to the conclusion that yes, these woman all “vanished” but the scariest thing is not that it was by the hands on one man (a serial killer) but lots of individual m... more

  • Good Listen

    Really good listen and well told. Maybe not as polished as some podcasts but that adds to the listening experience in my opinion. Two guys that have researched their episodes. Especially the Vanishing Triangle ones as Ciaran did a podcast on it before and Shane has a YouTube channel called Haunted Eire where he actually goes out and about to these locations to give you a real feel for the places.
