Cars of the Macabre

From angelic strangers at train stations to entire villages lost to history — this episode of Cars of the Macabre explores the strange, the unsettling, and the absurdly human side of the macabre.We start on a dark train platform, where an unexpected musician may (or may not) have been an angel. From there, we dive into the tragic story of Imber, a Wiltshire village evacuated in 1943 so American troops could train for the D-Day landings. Promised their homes back after the war, the villagers never returned — leaving behind a ghost village frozen in time.Then it’s on to a little bit of British superstition, from childhood myths about lightning to the small, petty acts of modern life that drive us mad (and occasionally lead us to dream about meeting a moose). But beneath the laughter, there’s a darker thread: the terrifying beauty of the death cap mushroom, and how a simple lunch in Australia turned into one of the country’s most chilling murder cases.History, folklore, and true crime blend into one unsettling mix — stories of displacement, poisoning, superstition, and fleeting grace. Because sometimes, the strangest horrors aren’t supernatural at all… they’re entirely human.https://linktr.ee/carsofthemacabre https://www.instagram.com/carsofthemacabrehttps://www.instagram.com/allieofthemacabre/https://www.instagram.com/park_lanestudios/#CarsOfTheMacabre #TrueCrimePodcast #DarkHistory #UrbanLegends #BritishFolklore #GhostStories #Paranormal #AbandonedPlaces #WWIIHistory #MushroomPoisoning #ErinPatterson #DeathCap #HauntedBritain #CreepyStories #DarkComedyPodcast

In October 2002, the Washington, D.C. area was gripped by fear as two snipers carried out a series of coordinated attacks that left 10 people dead and 3 wounded. Known as the Beltway Sniper Murders, these shootings paralyzed communities, sparked one of the largest manhunts in U.S. history, and exposed chilling details about John Allen Muhammad and Lee Boyd Malvo. In this episode of Cars of the Macabre, we dive deep into the killings, investigation, and aftermath of a crime spree that turned everyday routines—pumping gas, shopping, walking outside—into moments of terror.https://linktr.ee/carsofthemacabre https://www.instagram.com/carsofthemacabrehttps://www.instagram.com/allieofthemacabre/https://www.instagram.com/park_lanestudios/#TrueCrime #BeltwaySniper #SerialKiller #TrueCrimePodcast #CarsOfTheMacabre #MurderPodcast #TrueCrimeCommunity
