139. Great Hanoi Rat Massacre and Seven Sutherland Sisters
Kat covers the Cobra Effect, a maddening effect of government policies that backfire and do the opposite of what they intended. The consequences don't always involve animals, but when they do, it's RAT CITY in 1902 Hanoi, Tonkin, French Indochina. Explore the mystical origins of hamsters and the wonders of rat milk. Next, Hayley covers the Seven Sutherland Sisters, whose hair was so long (37 feet split between them all) they traveled in the circus as performers! Their lives became unrecognizable from their humble upbringing as turkey farmers... We want to be them. For More Night Classy! Produced by Parasaur Studios © 2022

138. Anna's Ice Palace and The Noid
Hayley tells the story of Ivanna the Terrible and how she truly lived up to her name. In Disney’s Frozen an ice castle was a fantasy, but in real life, ice sheets on an ice bed just means freezing your dick off. The ice elephant sounds pretty cool though. Then, Kat breathes life into Domino’s Pizza’s semi-retired mascot: The Noid. A creature so vile, so annoying, it inspired a hostage situation. NOID Commercial 1987 For More Night Classy!

137. Doppelgänger and Locked Room Mystery
Hayley covers the creepy phenomena of double-walkers or spirit twins, otherwise known as Doppelgängers! Did Émilie Sagée really have one? Then Kat follows it up by covering the true crime murder of Isidore Fink in 1930s New York. A real-life locked-room mystery!

136. Dogman and Kasha Demon
Kat’s ready to convert you to the ‘dog side’ with a lesson on Dog Man. Is Dog Man sexy or scary? Listen and find out! Then, Hayley takes us on a tour of the Kaimuki House where a demonic cat stalks the halls and uses corpses as puppets. Our Website!

135. The Doll Man of Russia and Werewolves
You will never look at Build-A-Bear the same after hearing Hayley’s harrowing tale of Anatoly Moskvin, self-proclaimed necropolyst, who “collected” vintage “dolls.” It’s worse than it sounds and we’re sorry. Next, Kat breaks down some pros and cons (mostly cons) of being a werewolf. As if having to strip naked before you transform isn’t embarrassing enough, then you have to face the criminal trials! Stay tuned next week for part 2: Dogman! Our Website!

134. The Bell Witch and Creepy Clowns
It’s officially the Halloween season and we are not going to let you forget it! Kat starts out with a paranormal classic: The Bell Witch. The Bell Witch is considered a compelling case for the existence of the paranormal as it ends in a real-life murder. And honestly, we might be team witch. Then, Hayley explains exactly why we are scared of clowns and where they come from. John Wayne Gacy started the fad, but as with any trend, clowns will always cycle back.

133. Neuschwanstein Castle and Juan Pujol García
The annual Oktoberfest episode is here! Kat’s lesson brings us to a storybook castle in a storybook setting: Neuschwanstein! Like any good fantasy, the castle housed a king who was, unfortunately, too beautiful. Too beautiful to get wrapped up in royal conspiracy? Decide for yourself. Next, Hayley teaches us how poultry farmer, Juan Pujol García, became a #bossbabe freelance spy during World War II. All you really need to do is watch Harry Potter on a loop and come up with a good codename! Prost! Join Our Patreon https://linktr.ee/NightClassy Produced by Parasaur Studios © 2022

132. Room 1046 Mystery and Ice Cream
Hayley recaps the mysterious death of Artemus Ogletree. We don’t know what bell boys do, but walking into a bloody crime scene is certainly not in the job description. Then, Kat teaches a lesson on something she hates: ice cream! But at least modern ice cream doesn’t contain cooked eggs or goose liver. Join us as we dissect exactly how ice cream is an essential part of the American war machine! Join Our Patreon https://linktr.ee/NightClassy Produced by Parasaur Studios © 2022

131. Big Nose George and McDonalds Monopoly Scandal
Hayley disturbs us all with the story of wild west outlaw, “Big Nose George,” the fashion icon. Big Nose George killed, but had they added the nipples he would have SLAYED. Then, sit on Ronald McDonald’s lap as Kat tells the story of real life hamburglar, Jerome Jacobson. This is the McDonalds Monopoly scandal, though we know the real scandal is the broken ice cream machines. Join us on Patreon! https://linktr.ee/NightClassy Produced by Parasaur Studios © 2021
