because it makes absolutely no sense, they always act like they're so special and they're the ones who are going to get away with it, it's so disturbing
That is what you call a basterd human. Plus I'm surprised we don't have torture rooms for the God fucking psychopaths who deserves to die and be torture just like how the basterd did to the victims
Combining short stories to make a video is a brilliant idea. The more content from Mike, the better. You'll never hear me complain about seeing more of Mike because I love ya. 😃
I can't help wondering what happened to her little boy. That poor, poor lady. Doing her best in horrific circumstances. And you're right, Mike - insane reasoning. Thanks for sharing. And sincere sympathies to the families who lost loved ones. Wow.
Crazy to see Gary’s story on this channel. We filmed Garys home right before he bought it in 2020 (for the real estate team) and I was shocked to see what had happened. It was so unfortunate to have to go back to photograph it again after all this, felt really strange walking back in knowing the full story. Wish his family well.
Omg I came here to comment, I JUST moved off oahu and literally didn't hear about this case at all!? I sent it to all my friends that watch TC with me and was like... yall hear this!? I don't know how it could've slipped passed me.....
@@alexxxajones it was all over the news when it happened! Always heard about the poor man who got killed and buried in concrete in his own home, and the suspects were on the run. I remember they’d always play back the security footage of them walking down Waikiki, asking for public help. Never knew what happened, so I’m glad Mike covered it all!
It was heartbreaking....that poor woman never had a chance to lead a safe, happy life starting as a child😢. I hope her son was taken care of after her death!
I know, and this is why I always cringe when I see people post things that say that every decision we make is ours, and it’s not our parents’ fault. Well actually it mostly is because of our parents and our upbringing. If she had been born to loving parents who gave her security, she would not have ended up in that lifestyle and not been desperate for money. She had no chance really, and the monsters who did that to her got off so easily, it makes me sick!
Unfortunately, I was aware of the Hello Kitty Murder, and I'm glad you went a bit light on the details. That poor woman. But that last one...I'm gonna have to walk away from my computer for a while.
I discovered Catfished type shows. OMGosh.....get lonely for company? These kinds of videos cure that real fast! I am pretty pissed at mommy dearest for never warning me that the real monsters look just like us. Of course, it was because she was one of them.
That first story reminded me so much, and horrifically, of the Junko Furuta case 🙁 it's no consolation but I'm glad in this instance they actually ended up in jail for what they did.
Oh, there’s also Susanne Cappa case from the uk, she only only 16 bless her. So far I’ve only seen Danielle Kirsty cover that case though, it’s a hard listen
That Chapter is the best true crime channel on RUclips in my opinion and I’ve watched many. Mike’s delivery, sarcasm, respect for the victims, empathy, jokes, honesty and life insurance dance are perfection. ❤
Like Mike I'm also from Dublin and this is exactly how we speak lol... We don't pronounce TH sounds, and throw a few more "bad words" into sentences than the average person lol...
The Hello Kitty murder is one of the saddest and prolonged murders I have heard of, after a month of that kind of torture she would have been begging to be put out of her misery. I hope she is at peace now.
I'm thinking maybe not?? The story started out that her ghost was haunting someone, that I'm not sure, but didn't appear to be involved in the torture?? I think I lost the part about how they got authorities to come to the place and cut open the Hello Kitty toy??
The young 14yr old girl, went to the police to tell the whole story, it was horrific torture. She was 13 at the time. There’s some very nasty pictures to be careful if you go looking up the story. I think Danelle Kirsty or Elenor Neale did a deep dive on it (they both could have to be honest)
Didn't the 13/14 yr old girl participate in some of the torture? I thought I heard a part of the story where the gf said, "it was fun." Maybe I got that wrong. There's a similar story - I think it also took place in China. A teen girl was tortured by teen boys for a long period of time. She was even held captive at a teens house-- and the parents knew she was there, but did nothing about it. Mike will probably cover it at some point. Just God awful stuff that makes a person nauseous. And I watch a lot of true crime. And the prison sentences that the people got in the story Mike shared, were like 20yrs with the possibility of parole?? What?? I thought going to prison in China would be horrible, and you'd be in there forever. Apparently not.
The dumbest thing about the last case is that no matter what crime you did last, your criminal record continues to exist, & other inmates can learn about your charges. A new charge doesn't erase past charges.
@@LynnAgain83 Chester isn't their name it's a word for child molester some places use lmao but even from the brief details you can tell they are not a smart individual making bad choice after bad choice to try survive.
Let’s just hope that with a new name Taylor Cross or Crosx still keeps these old charges connected to them. Because I can just see someone being charged as a former child sex predator finished probation and then identify as someone from the opposite sex have a new name and in the event of a child being missing or something like that,they won’t be looked into. Hopefully it’s not the case
Yeah but he butchers a lot of the stories, for example in my area hes done a couple videos and both times his facts are off, he adds gruesome details to killers even if they aren't real
The picture of her holding her son is so sweet, the true happiness on her face, but also makes the story even more heartbreaking..fly high and rest easy beautiful lady..
Exactly .. the happiness in her smile & the innocence on that sweet baby's face are so out of place next to the horror of her story 😞 What a horrific life to be born into .. and u can bet he's been swallowed up by the same system that spat his mother out defenceless at 15 & set her up for failure and doom 💔 I hope against hope that he will be alright.

Woah...the level of inhumanity so called humans can reach is jaw dropping🤯😱. How sad for each victim and their families. This type of video is always interesting, so please, if you are so inclined, make more! Thanks as always for your hard work🙏
Mike is the epitome of what a good man is and should be. He does the work, is consistent, keeps it fresh, and never bores me. With the stakes so high, no wonder I am still single. Lol
I prefer the longer deep dives on a regular basis but these shorter stories were an interesting change. I'd heard of the 1st one already but not the other 2. They definitely weren't any of the ones covered by so many creators in such a short time period that it makes us choose to not even watch yet another channel do it. Good finds Mike.
Forensic Files covered #3 in an episode and Trey Gowdy was the prosecutor in this 24:46 case. The clips of him in action will give you goosebumps. His interview time was also really good. But it's. Super case. That dude's in a women's prison now.
Yes, I have a really bad memory, like a goldfish, one trip around the bowl and it's all brand new. Anyway, was it El Chapo that was able to escape a prison by digging from his cell? For some reason I think it was, maybe Juan was one of his excavators? 😂
I like this format of a few "mini" stories. 2 of them were *SO HORRIFIC* it was actually a good thing they were short. *Also Mike.* Thank u for giving us a "Trigger Warning" of sorts when a story is EXTRA Horrendous. It's appreciated. 🙂
I love the 3 in 1 video. Full videos and these make for an excellent balance, along with all your podcasts. You are a fantastic storyteller and always provide great content with an adorable accent!
Prayers for you ❤️ remember things will always get better! I won't say God has a plan for you because I won't push religion, but the universe does! Hang in there ❤️🤗
The first story made me very sad for the poor lady. She never had a chance after being abandoned as a baby and growing up without a family. I wish her husband would have been better. Thank you for doing another video for us, and this format is really good! We appreciate all you do for us!
I get that but on the other hand, many ppl go through abusive, awful childhood yet, they go on and live normal, happy lives. I guess it just depends. Still, it is incomprehensible to think of the pain and anguish she must have been in. 😢
@@LynnAgain83 This is untrue, anyone I know who has experienced SERIOUS trauma & abuse (not exaggerated) has after-effects. In my country, children aren't thrown onto the street to be a sex worker at 15 from their foster homes. Even at 18, if they're meeting certain requirements they can remain, or if they have a baby both can be in foster homes while that baby grows. If you just "bounce back & have a happy life", I'd like to know what abuse you're speaking of & the severity. Because I have a plethora of examples & none of them end this way....
@@AliceA333 nadda THING said by lynn was untrue ! the last line covers ALL and honey IF you have a" PLETHORA" then ill raise you 3X that amount {for starters } of folks iv met PERSONNALY that can vouch for the ups AFTER the downs of such a life , iow your answer to lynn is QUITE THIN { lol ,rymnes } actually it looks KNOW IT ALL - ISH way more than ness , at very least UN-HELPFULL , barely makes sense AT ALL to what lynn commented ! btw big WHOOPS for" YOUR COUNTRY " does that include your FRONT LAWN ? 🤔🤔
I sometimes think that's the reason jury's will be reluctant to punish. They don't understand that level of evil. It's not about punishment for me, it's about protecting me and the rest of us.
Mike. I appreciate you speaking on the lives and tragic deaths of lesser known victims. It is so heartbreaking to hear what people are capable of but a good reminder of what is out there. Thank you for doing it with such respect and compassion for the victims.
One of the people I graduated high school with was a special needs man who later was murdered, along with his parents, by a pickax wielding 16-year-old. This happened in 2011, in New Mexico. I always end up thinking about them when I watch your videos because, well, murder and all that. There was a billboard up for a long time with a picture of all of them, asking for anyone with information on the case to come forward.
I live in Albuquerque and a few years ago a family of five were all stabbed to death two were little ones one was a teenager. Turns out the teenager’s boyfriend killed them after she broke up with him. Sadly my little girl was murdered along with her nephew by her boyfriend one day after her breaking up with him. This city’s crime has gone crazy.
Horrific stories, but told in a compassionate manner. Thanks, Mike for reminding me to keep my head on a swivel and exposing these terrible crimes to the general public. Everyone needs to be aware of mans' inhumane treatment of each other.
Wow, another That Chapter video yet again this week! Thank you, Mike! And that last story was particularly disturbingly sad on so many levels, but, as usual, you were respectful and kind with just the right smattering of humor where appropriate. Thanks so much, Mike. We all appreciate you so much. (Where's the outro telling you you love us? Hmmmm?)
I've been wondering why the outro has changed from 'cos I love ya- to love ya for watching or being here etc.. 🤔 I'd love to know why he doesn't just love us anymore and only loves us for watching 😂
Maybe he’s getting weird messages from people who believe he actually is “in love” with them. (He’s cute and well spoken. Probably getting all kinds of nut bar attention.)
@@elsaparties5467 Me, too! It seems weirdly conditional, or like he's worried, in this "woke" world, of being proclaimed some sort of pervert or something. And no worries, because we all love him, period. I wish he'd go back to the pure and simple and lovely, "...because, I love ya. Mike out," with the little wink. That outro was perfect, after all!
The hello kitty murder has to be the most horrific account of torture I've ever heard and I have watched,read,or heard thousands of cases. They were truly evil😢
@@Stephjvb if you wish to mentally scar yourself... Look up the Toolbox killers. Specifically, the cassette recording transcript to the murder of their last victim. But be warned. It's the worst thing. When they were preparing the film The silence of the lambs, The actor that portrayed Jack Crawford, Scott Glenn, listened to the actual recording. And he said it made him feel like he lost a part of his soul. But that's the worst of the worst. Mainly because it was recorded. Junko went through the worst but something about that tape just changes you.
Whatta nice surprise! I didn't mind the shorter stories at all, I think most of us would watch ANY stories from you, no matter how short or long they are. 😊
Please make more videos like this!! I absolutely love the original styles of content you put out, but this formula works great as well!! Oh also, THANK U SO MUCH for all your time & energy u work into each and every thing you present to us!! Mike, u are a true hero 💜💯💯💯
I've read about the Hello Kitty murder story years ago, and unfortunaly, this story is the first thing that comes to mind every time I see anything related to Hello Kitty 😰
You are spoiling us this week! Between your podcast and multiple YT vids this week I am in heaven ❤ Keep up the amazing work, Mike, but make sure you're taking time for yourself 😊
Love the new visual format and the reintroduction of your wonderful soundtrack choices. Makes the show feel so classy and respectful to the dead. Have often wanted a That Chapter playlist. 💖
I think when you go off course from the regular format, that's some of your best stuff. The conspiracy theory episodes rocked. Thanks for all that you do.
Everytime I hear about her case I wonder what happened to her son. Who was he with during that month? Is he okay now? As a mother I'm sure she was worried about him the entire time as well and the whole thing breaks my heart.
Exactly. All of these cases, I’m just like 😮 Who has the ENERGY to do all this stuff?!? I don’t even want to fold and put up my laundry. 🤦🏻♀️ Can imagine what it takes to kill and get rid of a body. I don’t want to clean my toilet
I just wanna say that although these cases are sad and horrible, your voice is calming and makes listening to these stories bearable. This is a great channel and it’s obvious you care deeply. Thank you for being a wonderfully good person, Mike.
3 Shocking That Chapters and the Unbelievable Reasons Why I watch them twice: Quality storytelling, m'dude. You get started, I get settled in, I block out all the incredibly depressing static that is our current world and I fall fast and sound asleep. Every.freakin.time. So, then I get to come back and watch for real. Killer deal for both of us. THANK you so much for the content - you really are in a league of your own.
I enjoy the multi-story episodes. Even if you can’t make a full video from them, doing them this way is a great way to get the stories out there. I, personally, like when you clump similar stories together (like the hiring fake hitmen cases), but I’ll watch your videos no matter how you post the stories.
Has anyone done an interview with our beloved narrator? It would be interesting to hear his story about starting this channel, specifically about the content he covers. He’s so professional and clearly passionate. Seems like a super guy.
Mike, please tell us what happened to the little boy in the first story! It's such a heartbreaking tragedy from start to finish, please tell us the son is in a better place at least. Thank you as always for all your hard work in piecing these stories together.
I agree, Mike. Some of the things that people do are heinous, horrendous and gruesome to the extreme. When people commit these awful crimes, they should never be allowed to live a day longer, after they've been caught of course. :(
I listen to these stories in the background, while I'm working on my computer. This format of telling 3 shorter stories works for me - probably better than the longer ones, as I have a tendency to lose focus and then have to try to find out where I drifted off... and then I have to pass the extra time expenses onto my clients, which drives up my rates... so thanks for helping to mitigate that.
What an excellent new, fun format. Added bonus as a surprise episode. Love the usual 20+min ones, because a lot of them need that time. But, this is great. Would love a few peppered in whenever you're up to it.
Man I'm loving all the recent uploads!! That first case was truly a sad and horrible one. I've watched other videos about it that went a little deeper into detail and it's truly heartbreaking. I can't imagine the suffering that poor girl endured :( Also as for the girl that told the cops, she would've never told if she wasn't feeling so guilty cause of the terrible shit they had done!! I don't believe in immunity for people involved in such horrific crimes when they physically played a role in the actual abuse of the victim. A reduced sentence maybe but that girl should have been punished as well. And charging these monsters with the lesser charge of manslaughter is not justice for this lady IMO. Tragic
Unbelievable stories! There are so many sickos in this world. I love watching you tell your stories. You're very compassionate and caring. Stay well!!❤❤❤❤
The first storys explanation of the "ghost" the woman was seeing reminds me of the things I see sometimes when I close my eyes. It's hard to explain but sometimes when I close my eyes to try and fall asleep I will see faces appear in my minds eye. Sometimes there just normal looking random faces but other times they look furious or as if they are going through some extreme suffering. This has happened to me on a regular basis for my whole life.
Love these shorter stories also !! U give us all the pertinent info, and the stories are just as shocking ! Thank u Mike ! Always a great experience listening to u ! ❤
Hurray! We got a video from you on Sunday. I love listening to your story's. I feel we all love you and that today's story was a treat. Thank you so much Mike. 💜
I really liked the 3 short cases you covered in this video. I truly am a big fan of yours either traditional long story or this new approach are both totally acceptable my friend. Good job 👍
Wow these crazy crazy,true crime stories are horrific!! Thanks Mike for these,you are Great,I hope you keep on coming on!! My heart hurts for all the victims!! Thanks again Mike,you are awesome!!❤❤❤❤❤
👍 These short stories are a nice way to mix it up Mike. I think I still prefer the one story ones, but variety is the spice of life. I'm here for whatever you put out! ♥ *I like the backgrounds!!* Hoooray for the 'Life Insurance Dance! Haven't seen that in a while! 😊
Yup this is gonna haunt me for good while. The most FU cases I’ve come across recently and that’s saying something as I consume a lot of true crime content. Also love your podcast content. Thanks so much for it all, Mike!
The last one was insane yet makes sense in a twisted way. He did it out of extreme cowardice as someone willing to abuse their 3 month year old baby is severely lacking in character to begin with. The justice system failed letting him be bonded whereas plenty of people have been put away until their elderly days through non-violent drug use (mary-j) . System's wonderful!
24:56 on a Sunday and I had a new video from Mike to watch. Love it! I think this was a night change. I hadn’t ever heard of any of these stories and liked hearing multiple in one video. Hope you decide to make more like this in the future.
Sooo horrible! What a world we live in. Very tragic and sad. Thank you, Mike, for doing a great job! I appreciate your hard work and honesty. These qualities seem to be getting rare these days.

But it's. Super case. That dude's in a women's prison now.
Omg, Juan trying to find a way out of the interrogation room by pulling on the walls is classic.
😆
A classic Juan move.
Yes, I have a really bad memory, like a goldfish, one trip around the bowl and it's all brand new.
Anyway, was it El Chapo that was able to escape a prison by digging from his cell?
For some reason I think it was, maybe Juan was one of his excavators? 😂
I like this format of a few "mini" stories. 2 of them were *SO HORRIFIC* it was actually a good thing they were short. *Also Mike.* Thank u for giving us a "Trigger Warning" of sorts when a story is EXTRA Horrendous. It's appreciated. 🙂
I love the 3 in 1 video. Full videos and these make for an excellent balance, along with all your podcasts. You are a fantastic storyteller and always provide great content with an adorable accent!
Hey you 🥺
I'm really at a difficult time in my life, personally. That chapter and podcast is a very welcomed distraction from it, thanks Mike.
Hang in there. It will get better. 😄
Cool
Prayers for you ❤️ remember things will always get better! I won't say God has a plan for you because I won't push religion, but the universe does! Hang in there ❤️🤗
Time will heal all. Keep your head up and you will make it through to the other side.
Praying for better days for you❤
All three stories were just wild, bizarre, & heart wrenching. Mike, you never fail to deliver, that's for sure.
Can I just say getting this many videos from Mike in one week makes an awesome week!!! Love ya!!!!
The first story made me very sad for the poor lady. She never had a chance after being abandoned as a baby and growing up without a family. I wish her husband would have been better.
Thank you for doing another video for us, and this format is really good! We appreciate all you do for us!
I get that but on the other hand, many ppl go through abusive, awful childhood yet, they go on and live normal, happy lives.
I guess it just depends.
Still, it is incomprehensible to think of the pain and anguish she must have been in. 😢
I hope she’s in Gods kingdom, experiencing of nothing but love
In Kowloon, anyone will flay you alive for stealing $500.
She's lucky she didn't get her kid killed.
@@LynnAgain83 This is untrue, anyone I know who has experienced SERIOUS trauma & abuse (not exaggerated) has after-effects. In my country, children aren't thrown onto the street to be a sex worker at 15 from their foster homes. Even at 18, if they're meeting certain requirements they can remain, or if they have a baby both can be in foster homes while that baby grows.
If you just "bounce back & have a happy life", I'd like to know what abuse you're speaking of & the severity. Because I have a plethora of examples & none of them end this way....
@@AliceA333 nadda THING said by lynn was untrue ! the last line covers ALL and honey IF you have a" PLETHORA" then ill raise you 3X that amount {for starters } of folks iv met PERSONNALY that can vouch for the ups AFTER the downs of such a life , iow your answer to lynn is QUITE THIN { lol ,rymnes } actually it looks KNOW IT ALL - ISH way more than ness , at very least UN-HELPFULL , barely makes sense AT ALL to what lynn commented ! btw big WHOOPS for" YOUR COUNTRY " does that include your FRONT LAWN ? 🤔🤔
Evil never stops to surprise me. Keeping somebody for one month just to torture her shows a level of evil that a normal person cannot understand.
I sometimes think that's the reason jury's will be reluctant to punish. They don't understand that level of evil. It's not about punishment for me, it's about protecting me and the rest of us.
Mike. I appreciate you speaking on the lives and tragic deaths of lesser known victims. It is so heartbreaking to hear what people are capable of but a good reminder of what is out there. Thank you for doing it with such respect and compassion for the victims.
Mike's own decency and compassion is the only thing I find that makes it possible to watch these tails of the worse of people
Thanks Mike. I look forward to your videos. Always interesting & entertaining.👍☘️🤗
One of the people I graduated high school with was a special needs man who later was murdered, along with his parents, by a pickax wielding 16-year-old. This happened in 2011, in New Mexico. I always end up thinking about them when I watch your videos because, well, murder and all that. There was a billboard up for a long time with a picture of all of them, asking for anyone with information on the case to come forward.
That's so sad, I hate that this is a world full of people who would do such evil things 😢
That sounds like a senseless barbaric act of violence
I live in Albuquerque and a few years ago a family of five were all stabbed to death two were little ones one was a teenager. Turns out the teenager’s boyfriend killed them after she broke up with him. Sadly my little girl was murdered along with her nephew by her boyfriend one day after her breaking up with him. This city’s crime has gone crazy.
@@denisechristie It's definitely not just your city.
That disgusting child rapist is still sucking in air that we pay for. Why??
The first victim is absolutely heartbreaking. Every turn was just pain for her throughout her life
Horrific stories, but told in a compassionate manner. Thanks, Mike for reminding me to keep my head on a swivel and exposing these terrible crimes to the general public. Everyone needs to be aware of mans' inhumane treatment of each other.
as i binge watch these videos sometimes i wonder whether or not i do need to be aware.
Wow, another That Chapter video yet again this week! Thank you, Mike! And that last story was particularly disturbingly sad on so many levels, but, as usual, you were respectful and kind with just the right smattering of humor where appropriate.
Thanks so much, Mike. We all appreciate you so much. (Where's the outro telling you you love us? Hmmmm?)
I've been wondering why the outro has changed from 'cos I love ya- to love ya for watching or being here etc.. 🤔 I'd love to know why he doesn't just love us anymore and only loves us for watching 😂
@@elsaparties5467 maybe because people are crazy and killing podcasters 😢
Maybe he’s getting weird messages from people who believe he actually is “in love” with them. (He’s cute and well spoken. Probably getting all kinds of nut bar attention.)
@@elsaparties5467 Me, too! It seems weirdly conditional, or like he's worried, in this "woke" world, of being proclaimed some sort of pervert or something. And no worries, because we all love him, period. I wish he'd go back to the pure and simple and lovely, "...because, I love ya. Mike out," with the little wink. That outro was perfect, after all!
The hello kitty murder has to be the most horrific account of torture I've ever heard and I have watched,read,or heard thousands of cases. They were truly evil😢
The japaneae girl in the barell sounds no better..
Junko furuto (sp) is the worst
@@TomF1180 yes, i watch tc every night but junko is the worst, followed by the toybox killer
@@Stephjvb if you wish to mentally scar yourself... Look up the Toolbox killers. Specifically, the cassette recording transcript to the murder of their last victim.
But be warned.
It's the worst thing. When they were preparing the film The silence of the lambs, The actor that portrayed Jack Crawford, Scott Glenn, listened to the actual recording. And he said it made him feel like he lost a part of his soul.
But that's the worst of the worst. Mainly because it was recorded. Junko went through the worst but something about that tape just changes you.
We are loving more Mike and more That Chapter ! Popping up in different forms on different days! Your hard work is appreciated!
Whatta nice surprise! I didn't mind the shorter stories at all, I think most of us would watch ANY stories from you, no matter how short or long they are. 😊
Agreed
Just when we thought Mike couldn't get any better--- this 3 crime series in one emerges!! LOVE IT!!! More 3 in one please lovely man!! x x
Thanks for always coming through Mike! 😊 Am always looking forward to new true crime stories from ya….much love!! 🫶🏽
I got a friend in London called Gary. Do you know him I think he lives at No 32
@@pigswillbepigs 🤣😂🤣😂
Ew London 😆
Don't be ridiculous, London doesn't exist. It's made up like Australia
One of my favorite things is to have the closed captions on and laugh at the interpretation of Mike’s accent. Love it.
So glad that you're putting out way more videos than in the early days. Your videos are in the "must watch" category for me. Keep it up!
Loving the extra content. You always make my day, cause I love ya!
Thanks, Mike. Those were horrific stories. May the victims & their family find peace.
Please make more videos like this!! I absolutely love the original styles of content you put out, but this formula works great as well!! Oh also, THANK U SO MUCH for all your time & energy u work into each and every thing you present to us!! Mike, u are a true hero 💜💯💯💯
You are the only RUclips crime storyteller i can listen to tell the most gruesome stories and not feel sick to my stomach.
I've read about the Hello Kitty murder story years ago, and unfortunaly, this story is the first thing that comes to mind every time I see anything related to Hello Kitty 😰
You are spoiling us this week! Between your podcast and multiple YT vids this week I am in heaven ❤ Keep up the amazing work, Mike, but make sure you're taking time for yourself 😊
Are you ever mind blown seeing your videos get 35k in one hour? Your fans love you and we jump on these the second we see them.
Boy Mike you certainly weren't kidding about the motive for that last case.
Love the new visual format and the reintroduction of your wonderful soundtrack choices. Makes the show feel so classy and respectful to the dead. Have often wanted a That Chapter playlist. 💖
@@shay4ojibwa638 I don't care, scammer.
I think when you go off course from the regular format, that's some of your best stuff. The conspiracy theory episodes rocked. Thanks for all that you do.
The first story is so horrible, tragic and sad. I hope her little boy has a better life ❤
Everytime I hear about her case I wonder what happened to her son. Who was he with during that month? Is he okay now? As a mother I'm sure she was worried about him the entire time as well and the whole thing breaks my heart.
Love this idea for a new kind of video series! So sorry for all the victims. Thanks Mike!
to have Mike tell you "distressing content coming" after the Hello Kitty story was freakin scaryyyyyy
Exactly. All of these cases, I’m just like 😮 Who has the ENERGY to do all this stuff?!? I don’t even want to fold and put up my laundry. 🤦🏻♀️ Can imagine what it takes to kill and get rid of a body. I don’t want to clean my toilet
This was a fantastic format! It felt longer than the timestamp in a good way! Goodness...These horrific stories all around us 😢
The thing with the ghost is creepy, thanks Mike for three cases today. We love you. I cannot write comments in Spotify but I am huge fan❤
I just wanna say that although these cases are sad and horrible, your voice is calming and makes listening to these stories bearable. This is a great channel and it’s obvious you care deeply. Thank you for being a wonderfully good person, Mike.
Woke up this morning and it felt like Christmas. A surprise episode. Thanks Mike
I know I woke up and grabbed my coffee, saw he posted and thought the same thing 🤣 it's a Christmas miracle in March!
A video of Mike's, whether short or long-form, is a welcomed must-watch. Thank you, Mike! We luv 'ya.
3 Shocking That Chapters and the Unbelievable Reasons Why I watch them twice: Quality storytelling, m'dude. You get started, I get settled in, I block out all the incredibly depressing static that is our current world and I fall fast and sound asleep. Every.freakin.time. So, then I get to come back and watch for real. Killer deal for both of us. THANK you so much for the content - you really are in a league of your own.
What a disturbing Sunday surprise. Thanks, Mike. We appreciate all your hard work
He's pumping out content like crazy and I'm here for it ❤
I enjoy the multi-story episodes. Even if you can’t make a full video from them, doing them this way is a great way to get the stories out there. I, personally, like when you clump similar stories together (like the hiring fake hitmen cases), but I’ll watch your videos no matter how you post the stories.
Has anyone done an interview with our beloved narrator? It would be interesting to hear his story about starting this channel, specifically about the content he covers. He’s so professional and clearly passionate. Seems like a super guy.
I support this!
I like the idea of two or three stories in one video; please do more of them!
Mike, please tell us what happened to the little boy in the first story! It's such a heartbreaking tragedy from start to finish, please tell us the son is in a better place at least. Thank you as always for all your hard work in piecing these stories together.
He grew up missing his mum, but the police gave him one of her necklaces and he always wears it, if I remember it correctly
@@littleshopofeldritchhorror6224 I can never tell if comments like this are real or trolling
Love this! I would very much like to see more of these compilations. Thank you Mike, for your dedication and consistency 💜
I agree, Mike. Some of the things that people do are heinous, horrendous and gruesome to the extreme. When people commit these awful crimes, they should never be allowed to live a day longer, after they've been caught of course. :(
I listen to these stories in the background, while I'm working on my computer. This format of telling 3 shorter stories works for me - probably better than the longer ones, as I have a tendency to lose focus and then have to try to find out where I drifted off... and then I have to pass the extra time expenses onto my clients, which drives up my rates... so thanks for helping to mitigate that.
What an excellent new, fun format. Added bonus as a surprise episode. Love the usual 20+min ones, because a lot of them need that time. But, this is great. Would love a few peppered in whenever you're up to it.
Honestly, we had 20 cm of snow this past night so I'm willing to believe that Mike posting a video on Sunday is a Christmas miracle.
All your stories are worth hearing about because of your knack of telling them. Keep them coming. Cause we love ya.
Tragic tales that should be told. RIP to the victims. Thank you, always, Mike. We appreciate you.
Man I'm loving all the recent uploads!! That first case was truly a sad and horrible one. I've watched other videos about it that went a little deeper into detail and it's truly heartbreaking. I can't imagine the suffering that poor girl endured :( Also as for the girl that told the cops, she would've never told if she wasn't feeling so guilty cause of the terrible shit they had done!! I don't believe in immunity for people involved in such horrific crimes when they physically played a role in the actual abuse of the victim. A reduced sentence maybe but that girl should have been punished as well. And charging these monsters with the lesser charge of manslaughter is not justice for this lady IMO. Tragic
WOW Mike! This was absolutely awesome! Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. x
the last story happened close to my hometown and ive never heard it surprisingly. thank you for telling it in the amazing way you always do
Mike, I think this format of 3 stories in one video is sheer genius! 👏 As ever, thank you for the content (and continually raising your game) 💐
Unbelievable stories! There are so many sickos in this world. I love watching you tell your stories. You're very compassionate and caring. Stay well!!❤❤❤❤
The first storys explanation of the "ghost" the woman was seeing reminds me of the things I see sometimes when I close my eyes. It's hard to explain but sometimes when I close my eyes to try and fall asleep I will see faces appear in my minds eye. Sometimes there just normal looking random faces but other times they look furious or as if they are going through some extreme suffering. This has happened to me on a regular basis for my whole life.
Guess it's kind of a sleep paralysis
@@Flaschenteufel Could have something to do with it, I've had many sleep paralysis episodes as well.
You can look into intuition.. Clairvoyant and look. How to manage it
Wow, the postal carrier who was just murdered randomly is really chilling! Had never heard that one. Thanks for the Sunday upload.
Yes, love the multiple-stories-in-one video theme!
Pretty much love everything you upload, Mike!
Thank you for all the work you do Mike!
Hey Mike it is always good to see you more often, thank you for another great content
Love these shorter stories also !! U give us all the pertinent info, and the stories are just as shocking ! Thank u Mike ! Always a great experience listening to u ! ❤
Hurray! We got a video from you on Sunday. I love listening to your story's.
I feel we all love you and that today's story was a treat. Thank you so much Mike. 💜
What a gifted storyteller you are, Mike!😊
I really liked the 3 short cases you covered in this video. I truly am a big fan of yours either traditional long story or this new approach are both totally acceptable my friend. Good job 👍
Wow these crazy crazy,true crime stories are horrific!! Thanks Mike for these,you are Great,I hope you keep on coming on!! My heart hurts for all the victims!! Thanks again Mike,you are awesome!!❤❤❤❤❤
👍 These short stories are a nice way to mix it up Mike. I think I still prefer the one story ones, but variety is the spice of life. I'm here for whatever you put out! ♥ *I like the backgrounds!!*
Hoooray for the 'Life Insurance Dance! Haven't seen that in a while! 😊
Yup this is gonna haunt me for good while. The most FU cases I’ve come across recently and that’s saying something as I consume a lot of true crime content. Also love your podcast content. Thanks so much for it all, Mike!
Thanks for never letting us down, these were insane!! Much love to you Mike!! ♥
The last one was insane yet makes sense in a twisted way. He did it out of extreme cowardice as someone willing to abuse their 3 month year old baby is severely lacking in character to begin with. The justice system failed letting him be bonded whereas plenty of people have been put away until their elderly days through non-violent drug use (mary-j) . System's wonderful!
The "Life Insurance" montage gets me every time. I hope you make one for "Inheritance" as well. 😆
24:56 on a Sunday and I had a new video from Mike to watch. Love it! I think this was a night change. I hadn’t ever heard of any of these stories and liked hearing multiple in one video. Hope you decide to make more like this in the future.
Love all your content Mike, this style included! More of this would be appreciated 🎉🎉
Sooo horrible! What a world we live in. Very tragic and sad. Thank you, Mike, for doing a great job! I appreciate your hard work and honesty. These qualities seem to be getting rare these days.
A trio of tragedy. The last one I heard on Killer Bites but the first two are new to me. Bizarre they are. Thanks Mike. Lvya all much
I enjoyed this multi story format, would like to see more of this!
