The Tortured Ones

About this episode

We all strive to have meaning and peace in our daily lives. To go through life stress free and pain free. But some of us are plagued with anxiety, pressure, and fear brought on by our day to day duties. And although some of us are tormented by our own demons, others are alarmed by entities that stalk them. Either way, there is no escape from the torcher. 


First, trapped with no escape

Followed by a killers regret 

Then, contagious insanity 

Finally in our featured story, a murder on the loose
