Tunguska: When the Sky Exploded

 In 1908, something tore through the skies over Siberia and exploded with the force of a thousand Hiroshima bombs. Trees were flattened across 800 square miles, yet no impact crater was ever found. What caused the Tunguska Event? A meteor? A comet? Something stranger?

In this episode, we analyze the science and the some of the wild theories behind the largest cosmic explosion in recorded history, and explore other mysterious blasts from history.

Werewolf Serial Killer

Werewolf Serial Killer Spain’s first documented serial killer, Manuel Blanco Romasanta, claimed to have killed his victims while suffering from the curse Lycanthropy. Simply put, he claimed to be a werewolf. Romasanta’s case was bizarre and his trial lasted nearly a year before ultimately being sentenced to death. But that’s neither the beginning nor the end of the tale of “The Werewolf of Allariz.” With special guest R.J. Blake.

The Bloody Benders

  In 1873 it was discovered that a family known as the Benders had been killing travelers along the Osage Mission Trail in Labette County, Kansas. We know surprisingly little about the evil Benders. In fact, they may not have been a family at all. Their heinous acts of violence are still discussed to this day making the Bloody Benders the stuff of legend and folklore.   Special guest John M Keating joins the pod for both episodes of the Bloody Benders!   Learn more about John M Keating: https://johnmkeatingacting.com/   His Movie: https://tubitv.com/movies/670622/the-concessionaires-must-die   Join Patreon for exclusive content  https://www.patreon.com/astudyofstrange   Theme Music by Matt Glass  https://www.glassbrain.com/   Instagram: @astudyofstrange   Website:  www.astudyofstrange.com   Hosted by  Michael May   Email stories, comments, or ideas to astudyofstrange@gmail.com!  ©2022 Convergent Content, LLC...
