Season 3, Episode 2: The Fantastic Tale of The Widow Dach Part 2: Her Motive and The Crime Scene
As HTAB host and creator Jeanine Plumer plunged deep into the story of Mary Dach, she found that most of the information about the murder and Mary’s motive was very one-sided. Join us as Jeanine unravels all the tangled details of why Mary killed her farmhand and how she did it in part 2 of this 4-part series about the notorious widow, Mary Dach.
Season 3, Episode 1: The Widow Who Murdered Her Farmhand and Starved Herself To Death, Part 1
Your favorite ghostly podcast has RETURNED for season 3! While visiting the Old Jail House (now The Texas Heroes Museum) in La Grange, Texas, HTAB host and creator Jeanine Plumer found that the historic building has a very unusual haunting. Employees informed her that the hauntings are associated with a woman who had starved herself to death after murdering her farmhand. Reports of unexplained events began when the woman’s body was carried out of her jail cell and continue today. Naturally Jeanine had to investigate this story further! What she found was a complicated, twisted tale of abuse, murder, starvation and cultural stigma that took place in the small rural community of Schulenberg, Texas. Join us for this four-part series as Jeanine reveals the truth about the notorious widow, Mary Dach.
