Our Editor's Take

Witches, Magic, Murder, & Mystery combines these topics in an entertaining podcast. The hosts are Kara Hoagland and Megan Whitmer. The pair tell each other and their growing community new and intriguing tales each week. With over 250 episodes, there are plenty of spooky stories for listeners to explore.

In one of their "MYSTERY" episodes, Kara and Megan ask, "What happened to Mary Shotwell Little?" The podcast transports listeners to the '60s, when 25-year-old Mary disappeared. Megan describes Mary’s upbringing and what led her to the events of October 14th, 1965. Mary's husband Roy was out of town and planning to return the following day. She met her friend for dinner, then returned to her car to head home. No one saw Mary again.

Witches, Magic, Murder, & Mystery explores the mystery surrounding Mary's disappearance. When police examined her vehicle, they found evidence on the outside of it and between the back seats. Every detail Megan reveals adds to this mysterious tale. Was Mary kidnapped, or was it all a setup?

Another "MYSTERY" episode investigates the disappearance of nine-year-old Asha Degree. The podcast asks, "Does the Squonk Exist?" upon sightings of a new cryptid. In "SPOOKY” sessions, Kara shares a series of "Florida man" stories. These are strange and quirky events or crimes that have occurred in the state of Florida.

"MURDER" episodes reveal the story behind "The Potten Poisoner" and the serial killer Joseph Michael Swango. There are also "WITCH" stories, one from a listener who believes there is a witch in her family history. Listeners share suggestions and stories throughout the series. There are even podcast episodes dedicated to listeners' collections of ghost tales.

The Witches, Magic, Murder, & Mystery podcast shares stories of spooky events and true crimes. Kara and Megan provide research into each tale and involve their community throughout.

268. MURDER: Who Killed Dean and Tina?
Jan 19 2024
268. MURDER: Who Killed Dean and Tina?
First, an update on a case we covered in 2022 in episode 141: Where is Fawn Marie Mountain? Then- this week’s episode: In January 1981, two bodies were discovered north of Houston, Texas, and would remain unidentified for over 40 years. When the Harris County does were finally identified in 2011, it solved one mystery—but now there were more questions—who had killed them, why had they been murdered, and most importantly, where was their baby girl? If you have any information about the Dean and Tina Clouse, including any knowledge of their time with The Christ Family, please contact the Texas Attorney General’s Cold Case and Missing Persons Unit at 512-936-0742 or email coldcaseunit@oag.texas.gov and/or babyhollytips@oag.texas.gov.
