IN THIS EPISODE: The founder of the website Chicago Hauntings, Ursula Bielski, shares how the paranormal first invaded her life. (My Paranormal Life) *** The death of Thomas Becket shook the middle-ages. It’s believed his assassination in Canterbury Cathedral on December 29th, 1170 changed the course of history. (The Assassination of Thomas Becket) *** We’ll take a humorous look at the insane life of Boston Corbett – the man who was a hero because he killed John Wilkes Booth, but was also an idiot, cutting off his own manhood. (Abraham Lincoln’s Insane Avenger) *** Female serial killers… they are a lot more common than you think. (We’re Surrounded by Female Serial Killers)

Just stopped in to see who's lurking in my shadow.
Great channel. Keep up the good work.
DNA is science proof enough for me. Personal Testimony from better men than I, convinced me.

Ursula?
Loved the story of Corbett. Told with humor, I like that.
I keep Praying Mantids … they are amazing animals and the females don't always eat the male after mating, if he can get away.
The reason why the males get eaten is so the offspring gets his nutrients, and then they stand a greater chance of survival.
The male gives his life and still continues to mate even as he's being eaten alive
