In this episode of Morbid, hosts Ash Kelley and Alaina Urquhart emerge from their post-Halloween funk to tackle England's most prolific serial killer: Dr. Harold Shipman, a beloved family physician who murdered possibly hundreds of his own elderly patients. It's part one of two, covering Shipman's suspiciously ordinary upbringing, his drug-fueled fall from grace, and the slow-motion horror of his decades-long morphine murder spree.
It's Halloween on Morbid, and Alaina Urquhart and Ash Kelley celebrate in the only way they know how: covered head-to-toe in fake blood and prosthetic wounds while reading four spooky listener tales. The episode is a candy bowl of chaos — a babysitter who fends off an intruder with a Bop It, a haunted Catskills camping trip featuring hundreds of human teeth, a dead hospital patient communicating via heart monitor beeps, and a shadow creature lurking in a Texas cemetery. Nobody dies, everybody screams, and Ash eats a muffin retroactively.
Jason Landry, a college student from Texas, vanished in December 2020 after driving home unannounced to his parents, leaving behind his car, clothes, and phone in a remote area. After six years of dead ends, wild theories, and relentless online sleuthing, his remains were found in 2026 just five miles from the crash site, likely succumbing to hypothermia after a bizarre sequence of events.
A trio of true crime enthusiasts reunite for their annual spooky season tradition, diving into the chilling case of the Axeman of New Orleans, a serial killer active during the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic, whose identity may be linked to a man named Joseph Mumphrey — later killed by the widow of one of his victims.
A divorced father and his three kids move into a seemingly perfect house in Union, Missouri—only to discover it’s violently haunted by multiple spirits, including a Confederate officer and a basement demon, leading to terrifying encounters, psychic attacks, and a clown manifestation tailored to a child’s fears. The house eventually becomes so notorious it’s turned into a dog kennel.
This bonus episode of Morbid explores the 1933 kidnapping of 10-year-old Peggy McMath from Harwich, Massachusetts, drawing eerie parallels to Netflix’s film Animals, which centers on a political family’s child being abducted. The story of Kenneth Buck—a local man driven by desperation during the Great Depression—reveals how a seemingly ordinary man descended into a heinous crime that shocked a community and exposed the fragility of trust.
On this episode of Morbid, hosts Ash Kelley and Alaina Urquhart dive into two legendary prison breaks: John Dillinger’s audacious escape from Crown Point Jail using a fake wooden gun, and the infamous 1962 Alcatraz breakout by Frank Morris and the Anglin brothers, who crafted lifelike papier-mâché heads to fool guards and vanished into San Francisco Bay.
In 1938, Alma Fielding claimed her London home was haunted by a poltergeist named Jimmy, sparking a media frenzy and investigation by paranormal researcher Nandor Fodor, who eventually concluded her psychic phenomena were tied to trauma — though some events remain unexplained.
