An autopsy technician and a hair stylist dive into true crime, spooky history and other horrors.

Why listen

Morbid blends true crime case coverage with spooky history, listener stories, and the easy chemistry of two hosts who treat the material like a dark, weird conversation with friends. Episodes usually center on one case or theme, with research, reactions, tangents, and gallows humor rather than a polished documentary voice. It is a strong fit for listeners who like true crime that feels personal, conversational, and a little horror-adjacent.

Tony Costa, The Cape Cod Vampire Part 1

This week Alaina’s got a two parter, pretty close to home for us! Tony Costa, a hippie living around Provincetown in the 60’s, was a real shady character from the start. When he was a teenager he straight up broke into the home of a girl two years younger than him, proceeded to drag her down the stairs, and later told police he, “just wanted to talk to her!” Ok, Tony. It only gets weirder from there. Patricia Walsh and Mary Ann Wysocki head to the cape for a relaxing weekend getaway and meet Tony during their stay. Interestingly enough, they never return home and Tony is the last person to see them.Alaina recommends the book, In His Garden by Leo Damore As always, thank you to our sponsorsSquareSpace: Check Out http://Squarespace.com/MORBID for a free trial!
