The first story the coroner completely broke me. The throught of that poor girl wandering blindle in the woods while hallucinating is absolute nightmare fule.Truly one of the most disturbing things I've heard.
Middle of nowhere stories, with Courage the Cowardly Dog's home in the town of Nowhere as the video image. Well played, haha.
Story 4 "despite my education and IQ" ok Einstein chill.
Many many years ago my husband and I were driving down an interstate and pulled off on an exit looking for gas. The exit went straight to a small town and we had barely hit the outskirts of it when the hairs on the back of my neck went up. For one thing, there was nobody and no cars in sight. It was so strange that even my military husband agreed we needed to get the heck out of there and not look for a gas station.
Being a coroner is fairly safe, you can't kill anybody if you make a mistake
"Von hinnen gangen" is basically telling her to go away, she isnt wanted there.
Thin n gangly 🤘🏻 That story was unexpectedly terrifying.
Anyone else notice the Courage the cowardly dog background in the video ?
The guy that found a scorpion crawling up his leg and his truck that was left as a quote" present. Once you got it off of his leg he should have checked his truck to make sure there was no more. If they would have left more than one he would have been up the creek without a paddle
First story, absolutely heartbreaking. I hope whoever did that to her, suffers a fate worse than hers, and it lasts 4x as long. Second story, thank you Sir, for your service.
