    This week? Power players in trouble. Hollywood’s burning—maybe literally. Secret societies? Oh, they’re here. And love? It’s messier than ever.

    You know you’ve always wanted to know what’s inside these pages. So grab a drink, strap in, and prepare for a ride where the truth takes a backseat to pure, ridiculous drama.

  • Inside the Life of Israel Keyes Part 2
    Mar 6 2025

    Send us a text

    Israel Keyes was unlike any serial killer we’ve ever seen—methodical, patient, and terrifyingly precise. In Part 2 of our deep dive, we pick up where we left off: Vermont, June 2011. Keyes had just arrived, retrieving a kill kit he had buried a year earlier, and searching for his next victims. What followed was an execution of a double murder that would later become the key to understanding his nationwide crimes.

    But the Curriers weren’t his only victims.

    We take you step by step through Keyes’ terrifying admissions, his confession tapes, and the twisted games he played with the FBI. He revealed just enough to haunt investigators—but never enough to solve the full mystery. He talked about murders in Washington, New York, Texas, and the Midwest, but refused to name names. He hinted at bodies that would never be found. He told law enforcement,

    ‘You’ll never catch me the way you want to.’

    “nd in the end, he was right.

    Before he could be executed by the state, Keyes made sure to execute himself. But even in death, he left one last message—an eerie suicide note and 11 blood-drawn skulls found under his prison bed, possibly a tally of his true number of victims. How many did he really kill? What secrets did he take to the grave? And how close could he have come to getting away with it forever?

    Join us as we unravel the final chapter of one of America’s most terrifying predators. This is True Terror on Tap.

    In the first episode of our deep dive into the life and crimes of Israel Keyes, we trace his journey from an isolated childhood in rural Washington to his time in the U.S. Army, uncovering the early signs of a predator in the making. Raised in a strict and extremist household, Keyes developed a fascination with violence, control, and meticulous planning—skills that would later define his reign of terror. We explore his early criminal activity, his obsession with evading law enforcement, and the disturbing tactics he honed long before his first known murders. As he begins traveling the country, burying "kill kits" and perfecting his methods, Keyes moves closer to the crime that would bring him national attention. This is the origin story of one of the most calculated serial killers in modern history.

    Real stories. Real terror. No urban legends—just firsthand accounts from True Terror on Tap listeners who experienced the unexplained.

    In this chilling episode, we dive into encounters that defy logic:

    The Padre Hotel Haunting – A guest knowingly checks into one of Bakersfield’s most haunted hotels, only to experience the infamous shadow figure firsthand.

    The Vanishing Hitchhiker – A truck driver picks up a stranded woman on a desolate highway… and watches her disappear before his eyes.

    The Whispering Woods – A solo hiker ventures deep into the Pacific Northwest wilderness, only to hear voices circling her—voices that shouldn’t exist.

    The Man in the Window – A childhood memory resurfaces as one listener recalls a figure watching from outside his home. But was he ever outside at all?

    We don’t just tell these stories—we break them down, exploring the haunted history behind these locations and the eerie patterns that emerge from different encounters. Is there a logical explanation? Or do some places—and some things—refuse to be ignored?

    Pull up a chair, pour yourself a drink, and get ready for a night of True Terror on Tap.

    "On a cold February night in 2004, Maura Murray crashed her car on a dark New Hampshire road. She was seen standing beside it, refusing help. Just seven minutes later, she was gone—without a trace."

    "Nearly a decade later, in 2013, Bryce Laspisa was driving home to his parents in California. But something wasn’t right. His behavior became erratic, his route made no sense, and after sitting in his car for hours, he suddenly vanished—his wrecked vehicle found at the bottom of a ravine, but Bryce was nowhere to be found."

    "Two roads. Two stories with missing endings. What really happened to Maura and Bryce? Were they running? Were they taken? Or did the highway itself claim them? Tonight, we dive into the haunting mysteries of those who vanished without a trace."

    "Buckle up. This is True Terror on Tap."

  • The Smiley Face Murders: Coincidence or Conspiracy?
    Feb 6 2025

    Send us a text

    "It starts the same way every time. A young man, out drinking with friends, laughing, celebrating. It’s late, maybe 1 AM, maybe 2. The bar’s closing. His friends turn their backs for just a second, maybe to order an Uber, maybe to use the bathroom. When they turn back—he’s gone.”

    “At first, no one panics. He probably just walked home. But then, hours pass. No calls. No texts. The next morning, he’s still missing. Days later, his body turns up in a river or a lake. No signs of struggle. No obvious cause of death. His friends and family swear he wasn’t the type to just wander off, but the police don’t find anything suspicious. They call it an accident. An unfortunate, alcohol-induced tragedy.”

    “But then it happens again. And again. And again. Dozens of times. Across multiple states. And in some of these cases, a symbol appears. Faint, spray-painted near the water’s edge. A simple, smiling face.”

    “Some say these deaths are just that—accidents. That young men, drunk and disoriented, are prone to tragic mistakes. Others believe something darker is at work. That there is a predator, or perhaps multiple predators, watching, waiting, and choosing their next victim. A group so organized, so careful, that they’ve gone undetected for years.” “So the next time you might think you’re alone. You might be wrong. This is True Terror on Tap.”

  • Robert the Doll: The Cursed Toy
    Jan 30 2025

    Send us a text

    It's strange how we often ignore the mundane. A doll, sitting innocently on a shelf, a child's plaything... it's hardly the sort of thing you'd expect to shatter your world. But that's what makes this story so terrifying. The most unsettling things often hide in plain sight, disguised by innocence.

    In Key West, Florida, there's a doll named Robert. He's not just any doll; he's infamous. Tourists flock to see him, encased in glass at the East Martello Museum. But the warnings are stark: Don't photograph him without permission. Don't mock him. And above all, don't underestimate him.

    Robert, you see, isn't merely a doll. Some believe he's a curse waiting to be unleashed. Over time, Robert has been blamed for car crashes, divorces, financial ruin, even death. His story has been whispered for over a century, growing more sinister with each retelling. Skeptics dismiss it as nonsense. But believers? They'll tell you this: Disrespect Robert, and you'll pay the price.

    So before you scoff, remember this – next time you take a photo, you might want to ask permission first. Because This is True Terror, on Tap.

  • The Dyatlov Pass Incident part 2
    Jan 23 2025

    Send us a text

    When we left off, search and rescue teams had uncovered the Dyatlov group’s abandoned tent—slashed open from the inside and eerily undisturbed except for the ominous tracks leading downhill into the forest. What they found next was even more horrifying: bodies scattered in various states of undress, some with injuries so severe they defied explanation, others appearing frozen mid-flight from an unseen terror. For hikers, the wilderness often symbolizes freedom and adventure, but here, it became a stage for unimaginable fear. This is true terror on tap.
