Sandy Hook School Shooting (Part 1)

Welcome to Cryptic Soup, your after-dark podcast filled with nightmares that haunt the daylight. From murders, to crimes, to cryptids, to anything in between, you can learn about what might be going bump in the night.

In this week's episode, join Thena and Kylee to talk a lot about Adam Lanza and the Sandy Hook Elementary School Shooting from 2012. This mass murderer is the deadliest at an elementary school in US history and has rocked the nation ever since. Adam Lanza was a very unique individual who potentially had fallen through the cracks of society with mental illness issues for his whole life, before finally making a decision to not only end his own life, but 20 children and 6 adults with him. This is a two part series!
