Episode description

On todays episode we discover some very strange activities in the form of somnambulism - that's sleepwalking to you and I.

We look at how my idle scrolling through TikTok led me to @Celina SpookyBoo and how this sparked my mind into discovering the darker side of sleepwalking.

This episode is best enjoyed with the accompanying YouTube video so you can see some footage of Celina's incredible sleepwalking!

I delve into the first ever case that used the 'homicidal sleepwalking' defence; The Boston Tragedy - the murder of Mary Ann Bickford by Thomas Boshears.

I look at the sleepwalking defence backfiring in the case of Scott Falater and the curious case of Kenneth Parks who seemingly managed to wipe out his inlaws all whilst claiming to be asleep before driving to a police station to immediately turn himself in.

All pretty scary stuff!

Join me as I tell you another Macabre Mini Mystery from around the world!
