Disturb Me

A husband and wife take turns telling each other the most disturbing true stories they can find—and YOU decide who wins. This week: one horror was man-made by hand, the other by code.

In this episode of Disturb Me, Chris and Meg trade two stories that prove reality can be far more terrifying than fiction. Chris dives into the horrifying life of Albert Fish, a serial killer and cannibal whose crimes shocked early 20th-century New York. Meg counters with the eerie unsolved case of the Hinterkaifeck murders, where an entire family was slaughtered on their remote German farm, leaving a mystery that still lingers today.
