    Dec 25 2024
    Welcome back, Spooky Squad, to another episode of Scream and Sugar, your true crime coffee hour. Today we unravel the chilling mystery of Pam Jackson and Sherri Miller, two teenage friends who vanished without a trace in South Dakota in 1971. The case baffled investigators for decades as the girls’ last known moments on a quiet road trip turned into an unsolved enigma.

    What happened on that fateful day? With no evidence or leads, families were left searching for answers, while theories ranged from tragic accidents to foul play. Join us as we follow the decades-long investigation that finally uncovered the truth hidden in a creek bed, bringing closure to one of South Dakota’s most haunting mysteries. We’ll dive into the painstaking recovery of their car, how advanced forensic technology pieced together their story, and the emotional impact on their loved ones.

    Grab your coffee and settle in for a heartbreaking journey into a case that underscores the power of persistence in uncovering the truth. We will be sipping on Main Vein Coffee Company, the cutest little shop in town! And remember, to stay spooky, and have a great holiday!

  • Ep 48 - Dorthea Puentes, Landlady Death
    Dec 17 2024
    Welcome back, Spooky Squad, to another episode of Scream and Sugar. Today we unravel the sinister story of Dorothea Puente, the "Deathhouse Landlady" - who we like to call Landlady Death - who turned her unassuming boarding house in Sacramento (what up, sister city!) into a house of horrors.
    Beneath her kind, grandmotherly exterior, Puente orchestrated a shocking scheme of manipulation, theft, and murder that targeted society's most vulnerable. Her crimes came to light in the 1980s, but the darkness surrounding her story runs much deeper.
    Join us as we peel back the layers of this true crime classic. From Dorothea's troubled past and her ability to deceive even the most watchful eyes to the grisly discoveries buried—quite literally—in her backyard, we dive into how she evaded suspicion for so long and the trial that cemented her as one of America's most notorious female serial killers.

    Today we are talking about the importance of social work and community relations, as well as referencing a fantastic food spot (Candace's Fave!), Lupita's Mexican Restaurant and Bar.

    So grab your coffee (or ceviche?), settle in, and remember to stay spooky, ya'll!

  • Ep 47 - Cryptids: The Jersey Devil and The Snallygaster
    Dec 3 2024
    Welcome back, Spooky Squad to another episode of Scream and Sugar, your true crime coffee hour. Today we are doing something a little different, a tale on cryptids in the US!
    Deep in the pine barrens of New Jersey lurks a creature steeped in mystery and legend: the Jersey Devil. With its bat-like wings, hooved feet, and eerie cries that echo through the trees, this cryptid has terrorized locals for centuries. But where did the legend originate? Was it truly born of a mother’s curse in the 1700s, or is it a tale steeped deep in women's reproductive rights? Join us as we untangle folklore, historical sightings, and the cultural impact of this spine-chilling figure.. We are also covering a tale a little further North, but no less creepy. Maryland’s rolling hills hide a darker secret: the Snallygaster. This part-reptile, part-bird creature with razor-sharp talons and a piercing shriek has haunted eastern regions since colonial times. Rooted in German immigrant folklore, the Snallygaster’s story is one of terror, sightings, and even a potential clash with the US President, Teddy Roosevelt. Could it be a manifestation of fear or a cryptid yet to be discovered? We’ll delve into the fascinating lore and uncover how this monster shaped local history.
    So come on and settle down as we sip on coffee from Matador Coffee Roasting Company in Flagstaff, AZ and get into some wickedly fun tales.
