On Halloween night in 1974, eight-year-old Timothy O’Bryan died after eating a cyanide-laced Pixy Stix. The investigation led police to someone far closer than an unknown neighbor: his father, Ronald Clark O’Bryan.

In this episode of Kat Has Questions, we follow the Halloween outing, the unraveling account of where the candy came from, and the insurance policies and witness testimony that helped establish a calculated murder. We also explore how earlier candy scares and the later Chicago Tylenol poisonings shaped the warnings generations of children grew up hearing.

How did a father’s crime become part of a legend about dangerous strangers? And what does the evidence actually tell us about poisoned Halloween candy?

A true crime story about the difference between what happened—and what we remember.

Content note: This episode discusses child murder, poisoning, and capital punishment.

Stay curious.

Thirteen-year-old Lurancy Vennum reportedly recognized Mary’s mother and sister, asked for her belongings, and recalled details from her life. For more than three months, she lived with the Roffs while her own parents waited for their daughter to return.

In this episode of Kat Has Questions, we explore the Watseka Wonder, an Illinois paranormal mystery involving alleged spirit possession, nineteenth-century Spiritualism, and two families with very different reasons to hope. We follow the reported encounters at the Roff House, the letters signed Mary, the chilling statement about a buried arm, and the emotional goodbye—then examine the historical accounts and the role suggestion may have played.

Did Mary Roff return from the dead? Or did grief, illness, and the beliefs surrounding Lurancy shape something that felt impossible?

Before The Amityville Horror became a bestselling book and horror movie, 112 Ocean Avenue was the scene of a devastating true crime. In November 1974, Ronald “Butch” DeFeo Jr. killed his parents and four siblings inside their Long Island home. A little over a year later, George and Kathy Lutz moved in with their three children—and began reporting experiences that would make the address infamous.

In this spooky-season episode of Kat Has Questions, we explore the DeFeo family murders and the Lutz family’s alleged haunting: the priest’s chilling warning, George’s 3:15 a.m. wake-ups, swarms of flies in winter, the mysterious red room, Missy’s invisible friend Jodie, and claims of levitation.

Then we follow the story beyond those 28 days, examining Ed and Lorraine Warren’s involvement, the “ghost boy” photograph, allegations of a hoax, and how the book and movies changed the story.

What happened inside the Amityville house—and how did a family tragedy become one of America’s most famous haunted-house legends?

Content note: This episode discusses family violence and the murder of children.

On August 4, 1892, Andrew and Abby Borden were brutally murdered inside their home in Fall River, Massachusetts. Andrew was found on the sitting room sofa. Abby had already been dead upstairs for significantly longer. Their daughter, Lizzie Borden, was home during the morning of the murders — and within days, investigators began focusing on her.

But the real Lizzie Borden case is far more complicated than the famous rhyme.

In this episode of Kat Has Questions, we're going inside 92 Second Street to reconstruct the morning of the murders, the strange Borden family dynamics, the mysterious note that supposedly took Abby out of the house, Lizzie's controversial barn alibi, the missing murder weapon, the lack of blood evidence, the burned dress, and the allegation that Lizzie tried to buy prussic acid the day before the killings.

Then we'll follow Lizzie through her arrest and sensational 1893 murder trial — including the evidence the jury was never allowed to hear — before asking the question people have debated for more than 130 years:
Did Lizzie Borden actually murder Andrew and Abby Borden?
Or did one of America's most infamous unsolved murder cases become a story we only think we know?

Before the next few days were over, seven people across the Chicago area would die after taking Tylenol capsules that someone had secretly laced with cyanide. The victims had no apparent connection to one another. They were simply people reaching for medicine they trusted.

For Episode 50 of Kat Has Questions — released on the 44th anniversary of the murders — we’re returning to Illinois for one of the most infamous unsolved crimes in American history.

We’ll reconstruct the first terrifying hours of the poisonings, the discovery that connected the deaths, the panic that followed, and the massive investigation to find whoever was putting poisoned medicine onto store shelves. We’ll also examine the two men who drew some of the most serious suspicion, including James Lewis — the man who demanded $1 million to stop the killings, but was never charged with murdering anyone.

Decades later, investigators reopened the case, conducted an elaborate undercover operation, and tested evidence for DNA. Still, no one has ever been charged with the seven murders.

The poisonings changed medication packaging, federal law, and the way Americans think about product safety forever.

Within hours, she was dead. Before the next few days were over, seven people across the Chicago area would die after taking Tylenol...
Before the next few days were over, seven people across the Chicago area would die after taking Tylenol capsules that someone had secretly laced with cyanide. The victims had no apparent connection to one another. They were simply people reaching for medicine they trusted.

For Episode 50 of Kat Has Questions — released on the 44th anniversary of the murders — we’re returning to Illinois for one of the most infamous unsolved crimes in American history.

We’ll reconstruct the first terrifying hours of the poisonings, the discovery that connected the deaths, the panic that followed, and the massive investigation to find whoever was putting poisoned medicine onto store shelves. We’ll also examine the two men who drew some of the most serious suspicion, including James Lewis — the man who demanded $1 million to stop the killings, but was never charged with murdering anyone.

Decades later, investigators reopened the case, conducted an elaborate undercover operation, and tested evidence for DNA. Still, no one has ever been charged with the seven murders.

The poisonings changed medication packaging, federal law, and the way Americans think about product safety forever.

But one question remains:

Who poisoned the Tylenol?

In this episode of Kat Has Questions, we take a deep dive into the life and suspected crimes of Herb Baumeister: his early life, marriage to Julie Baumeister, Sav-A-Lot thrift stores, the disappearances of men from Indianapolis's LGBTQ+ community, and the surviving witness who helped investigators identify the mysterious man calling himself “Brian.”

We follow the investigation to Fox Hollow Farm and examine nine Indiana and Ohio strangulation murders investigators later attributed to Baumeister—and whether the evidence supports the theory that Herb Baumeister was the elusive I-70 Strangler.

But this case didn't end with Herb Baumeister's death in 1996.

Nearly thirty years later, investigators are still using DNA testing and forensic genetic genealogy to identify the men recovered from Fox Hollow. This is the story of Herb Baumeister, the victims of Fox Hollow Farm, and an Indiana serial killer case that still isn't finished.

Holly’s attacker had been injured during the assault, leaving his blood throughout the mobile home. Semen recovered from Holly’s body came from the same unknown man. Police had the killer’s DNA—but there was no match in CODIS and no name to attach to it.Over the next nine years, investigators interviewed witnesses, examined injuries, followed leads and collected DNA from more than 150 men. Every one of them was excluded.Then investigative genetic genealogy pointed detectives toward Michael Henslick. After surveillance, investigators collected DNA from cigarettes he discarded. The laboratory comparison matched the blood and semen preserved from Holly’s murder.In this episode of Illinois Unsolved, we reconstruct Holly’s final night, the discovery of the crime scene, the first people investigators examined, the years spent searching for the unknown DNA contributor, the genealogy breakthrough, Henslick’s five-hour interrogation and the confession that followed.Using sheriff’s investigative records and Illinois court opinions, this episode also examines the forensic evidence presented at trial, Henslick’s changing stories, the mystery-intruder theory rejected by the courts and the natural-life sentence he ultimately received.This is the murder of Holly Cassano—and the evidence that waited nearly nine years for a name.

In this episode of Kat Has Questions, we’re diving into the famous babysitter urban legend — and the real-life crime that may have helped shape it.
We’ll explore:

• ​ The original “babysitter and the man upstairs” urban legend and why it spread so fast
• ​ The 1950 murder of 13-year-old Janett Christman, the case most often linked to the legend
• ​ Other crimes, safety panics, and suburban fears that fueled babysitter horror stories
• ​ How When a Stranger Calls (1979) cemented the “caller inside the house” trope in pop culture
• ​ Why this story still terrifies us, and what it reveals about fear, vulnerability, and being home alone

If you’re into true crime, urban legends, creepy psychology, or the origins of iconic horror lines, this one’s for you.
Content note: This episode includes discussion of violence against a child.

From family suspicion to intruder theories to forensic dead ends, this case shaped a generation of true crime obsession — and we’re unpacking why it still grips us.
What went wrong in the investigation? Which pieces of evidence matter most? And is this a case that can ever be solved?
