  • In the Weeds (PODCAST EXCLUSIVE EPISODE)
    Nov 18 2024

    On a Monday afternoon in 1986, medical staff at a clinic in San Antonio, Texas were starting to get worried, because their most respected nurse had not shown up for work and nobody could get a hold of her. So later that morning, two of the nurse’s colleagues drove down to her apartment. But when they got there, they found two notes taped to the door. They were messages from the nurse’s family, who had been looking for her since the day before. By the time the nurse’s family filed a missing person’s report, investigators at the sheriff’s department were tied up investigating another mystery – the death of a teenage girl found murdered earlier that morning. And after getting the description of the missing nurse, investigators started to wonder if they had a serial killer on their hands who was hunting down blonde women... or if there was some other connection between the women that they just couldn’t see.

MrBallen is one of the best storytellers I've heard. I follow him on YouTube and when I learned he had a podcast I was over the moon!

Good Job Ballen

I truly enjoy the stories and the way you tell them. it's astounding how many crazy unknown situations there are out there.

I'm especially interested in the deep woods missing 411 stories. Also, I can't remember what episode, but the one where they record the voices of those animals in the woods, at that hunting camp In the 70's.

That was intelligent communication. whatever that was in the woods is not known to is at this point. That to me is very interesting.

Keep up the good work Ballen!!!

This guy has an amazing talent for story telling!!

As soon as I stumbled upon Mr. Ballen's YouTube channel, I immediately binged everything I could find and wanted more. The crazy thing is I'm not a horror fan... I do not even watch scary movies... I don't really believe in ghosts or the supernatural, but something about the way he tells these stories just captivates you from start to finish! He keeps me entertained and totally intrigued. Mr. Ballen, thank you for being you and being so awesome! If I could have given this podcast 10 stars, I would have.
