A Serial Killer & Tobacco Where?! – Box of Oddities
What do an elusive serial killer and some genuinely questionable medical practices have in common? Nothing—except that they’re both unbelievably weird, unsettling, and featured in this episode!
First, Kat unpacks the chilling case of the Connecticut River Valley Killer, an unidentified predator who terrorized New England with a string of brutal attacks. Who was behind these unsolved crimes, and could they still be out there? (Spoiler: Probably. Sleep well.)
Then, Jethro takes a deep inhale of history’s most baffling medical treatments—tobacco enemas. Yes, you read that correctly. Once upon a time, doctors thought blowing smoke up your…well…you know was a cure-all. Turns out, it was just as terrible an idea as it sounds.
Murder, mystery, and medically sanctioned nonsense—what more could you ask for? Listen now!
