The Basement Files Ep I : Battle of Los Angeles
This week we look up at the bleak, starless sky over Los Angeles in search of strange terrors not of this world! Some eighty years ago a fierce battle raged above our very heads; thousands of rounds were spent and the city was gripped by a febrile panic such as we have never again experienced, and yet not a single enemy craft was downed. In fact it may very well be that no "airplane" (at least as we know it) was ever even in the vicinity of the area. What then was it? What were its intentions? And from what mysterious pace does it hail?

Massacre at Würzburg; Witches PartIII
This week we cross into Bavaria, to the bishopric of Würzburg, where we try to make sense of the frenzied hysteria which saw no less than a thousand people condemned and executed as witches between 1626 and 1631. Hear the sordid accusations leveled by neighbors against neighbors, sons against fathers, mothers against children and discover the lengths to which a mad prince went in order to free his lands from alleged witchcraft and heresy. Both an object lesson in religious fanaticism and a chilling tale of betrayal, murder, and fear, we under the streetlights humbly present to you, europe's bloodiest recorded witch hunt.
