On Sunday the 23rd of October 1966, eight-year-old Wendy Jane Pfeiffer was abducted about 500 metres from her family’s dairy farm in Mylor, South Australia.
In the wake of the infamous Beaumont Children Disappearance from Glenelg Beach in South Australia only 10 months earlier, response to Wendy's disappearance was rapid, and a full scale search was launched by police, firefighters, emergency services, and community volunteers.
When searchers returned with no results, police called in Aboriginal trackers Jimmy James and Daniel Moodoo to follow the trail others couldn't see...
Join Shaun and Chloe as they explore the details of this twisting, turning, extraordinary story.

Joanne Ratcliffe (11) and Kirste Gordon (4) were abducted while attending an Australian rules football match at the Adelaide Oval on 25 August 1973. Despite the case making national headlines at the time, the presumed abduction and murder is often linked and overshadowed by the disappearance of the Beaumont children in 1966. The case is also referred to as the Adelaide Oval Abductions.
Join Shaun and Chloe as they discuss the girls and their families, the details of the abductions, sightings of the perpetrator, police investigation and suspects. In the latter part of the episode, as Shaun dug deeper into the research of this case, two seemingly missed leads and a disturbing theory in connection with a remote South Australian town surfaced, suggesting a potentially dark and twisted end to this case and possibly many others...

On Monday the 11th of January 1965, Marianne Schmidt and Christine Sharrock took four of Schmidt's younger siblings to Wanda Beach for a day trip.

The 2014 Sydney Siege saw lone gunman Man Haron Monis take 18 people hostage inside the Lindt Chocolate Cafe, in Martin Place, Sydney CBD. Monis insisted he had a bomb in his backpack, and declared this incident an attack by the Islamic State. But these points would come under question as the siege unfolded.
Join Shaun and Chloe as they deep dive into the details of the siege, the stories of the hostages, the background of Man Haron Monis, the police response, and finally, the culmination of the harrowing ordeal that ultimately led to the loss of 3 lives.

Jill Meagher was a 29-year-old woman who was raped and murdered while walking home from Bar Etiquette in Brunswick, Victoria, in the early hours of the Saturday 22nd of September, 2012.
Jill was initially considered a missing person when she didn’t return home to her husband, Tom Meagher. The pair, who were originally from Ireland, lived in an apartment in Lux Way, Brunswick. It soon became a murder investigation when Jill’s handbag was discovered in an alleyway not far from home near where she’d last been seen, and CCTV footage from the local Duchess Boutique clothing store showed Jill talking with a man wearing a blue hoodie.
Join Shaun and Chloe as they discuss the details of a crime that stunned Australia. We talk about Jill, who she was, and what she meant to so many people, the police investigation, and the violent criminal who took her life: Adrian Ernest Bayley.

The Australian horror movie Wolf Creek has only gained in popularity over the past decade since its release, spawning a sequel and spin-off television series. But it's a work of fiction. Something that terrifying wouldn't happen in reality, and if it had, you'd know about it...right?
Join Shaun and Chloe as they discuss the terrifying ordeal two backpackers named Lena and Beatriz endured at the hands of a very real monster at Salt Creek, South Australia, in 2016. While our movie-watching brains can compartmentalise Mick Taylor's acts as being purely make believe, hearing the horror these women endured at the hands of Roman Heinze is something you'll immediately want to forget. But it mightn't be that easy...

The bodies of five young men were discovered in the broader area of Adelaide between the years 1979 and 1983. All of the bodies displayed signs of brutal sexual torture, leading to their deaths. Some were mutilated and dismembered.
A doctor was tried and acquitted for one of the murders, and an accountant was imprisoned for life for committing another. But four of the murders remain technically unsolved. The popular theory is that many more people were involved than just this solitary accountant from an outer Adelaide suburb.
Join Shaun and Chloe as they discuss these series of abhorrent crimes that shocked the state of South Australia. They discuss the victims, their families, the police investigation, the arrests and trials, and finally, 'The Family'. If Bevan Spencer von Einem didn't act alone, then who else was involved?

On 25 April 1978, Bill and Valda Thomas were mushrooming in remote bushland alongside Swamp Road near the South Australian town of Truro, when they stumbled upon what they thought was the bone from the leg of a cow. When they couldn't shake the image from their minds, they returned to the area two days later for another look. Upon closer inspection, they saw that the bone had a shoe attached; inside the shoe was human skin and painted toenails...
Join Shaun and Chloe as they discuss this slow-burning case about a series of missing women who would remain unconnected until the discovery of several sets of human remains in remote bushland near Truro in 1979. The disappearances were becoming more frequent, until they suddenly stopped. Police would discover from a tip-off there was good reason for that, and their subsequent interview of a submissive and infatuated wingman would paint a horrifying picture of a dominant young and charismatic psychopath.

Tuesday 16th of August, 1994, Lower Light, 50 kilometres north of Adelaide, South Australia.
No wind and no rain - the perfect conditions for brothers Jack and Ron Finch to conduct weed spraying on their 4000 acre farm. The brothers worked tirelessly all morning. After lunch, they returned to their arduous work, spotting what appeared to be a fox burrow up ahead. Ron pointed it out and Jack manoeuvred the car around the obstacle, before they happened upon a bone. They both took it for a sheep bone at first, but a closer look confirmed otherwise. It was a human skull. ‘That’s no burrow,’ Ron said, 'that’s someone’s grave back there...'
Join Shaun and Chloe as they discuss one of Australia's most brutal and notorious series of serial murders. In part one, they focus on the nucleus of perpetrators and their backgrounds.

9th of May 1999, Snowtown, South Australia
Jamie and David made the trip to Snowtown, where Jamie had organised for them to check out a cheap computer a mate of his was selling. $200 - a deal that was too good to pass up. They arrived in around an hour, parked out the front of the old bank building and wandered inside.
David saw the computer and then he saw John Bunting, who he knew. 'This is the computer,’ Bunting said, and a second later, his offsider Wagner had David by the throat, and they handcuffed the terrified young man. They led him into an area that had once been a bank manager’s office, and proceeded to make him handover his wallet, PIN, and recite a number of phrases and words into a recording device.
David, shaking like a leaf, turned to his stepbrother and said ‘Jamie, am I going to go home?’
‘Yes,’ Jamie said. ‘Do you promise?’ David asked again. ‘I promise,' Jamie said.
Then Bunting put on Live’s Throwing Copper album, and a maniacal grin spread across Wagner’s face. David wasn’t going home...
Join Shaun and Chloe as they discuss one of Australia's most brutal and notorious series of serial murders. In part two, they focus on the victims and the police investigation that led to the grisly discovery of the bodies in the barrels within a disused bank vault in Snowtown.
