That Quirky Wife

okay friends....this story comes with a "trigger warning." This is a true crime blog and there is murder, sexual assault, and children involved, if this upsets you, back out because 1.) I don't want you guys upset and 2.) I don't need nasty comments yelling at me haha So, I had a friend on Twitter recommend this story to me because she had never seen it been covered by a blog or podcast before and thought the story needed to be told. Once I started reading, i was hooked, so here it is.... Christina Marie Williams was born on May 1st, 1985 in Okinawa Prefecture, Japan to a Filipino mother named Alice Williams, and an American father, named Michael Williams. Her father was chief petty officer in the United States Navy. They had moved to Seaside California, to the Fort Ord, area, a year earlier where Christina was in the seventh grade at Fitch Middle School. She had good grades, maintained a "B" average, and she sung in the school choir. She was describe...

I came across a rather interesting article this week (while preparing for Halloween)...killer Ouija Boards. No, they don't come to life wielding a butcher knife and the planchette doesn't fly across the room and stab someone. I'm talking about Ouija Boards TELLING people to murder. I read the article and i was HOOKED so i figured I'd share with you guys, my most awesome of readers haha! #1: Okay, so the first ever report of a Ouija Board "murder" that I could find was on November 8th 1933 in Prescott, Arizona. It started when Dorthea Turley and her fifteen year old daughter, Mattie, sat down to have a Ouija Board session. Dorthea was reportedly a regular user and firm believer in the power of the Ouija Board (eep!) and had apparently used it for a wide variety of purposes including financial advice to the location of a stash of hidden gold?  At some point during this specific session (where it became a murderer), the planchette hovered over the board CL...

As I was doing research this week on spooky topics, I came to the realization that, you can't have a spooky story without said "spooky" location having a rather….sinister history. I mean, how can you get ghosts and creepy stories without something happening that would potentially traumatize you or keep you awake at night? With that being said, if creepy stories, murder, and ghosts aren't your thing I'd click out of here, also there is possible "trigger" topics mentioned in this as well…..you still here? Great. Guess that means you don't mind blood and gore. Haha So, for this weeks "Spooky Saturday" I WAS going to do a more true crime story, but I really want to stick to the creepy stories for now….it is October after all, so this week I picked the "Villisca Ax Murder House." Sound like your cup of tea? If so, I hope you enjoy this weeks story! So, the Villisca Ax Murder House is located in…you guessed it…Villisca, Iowa and ...

This is what I’ve been thinking….I’m sort of, kind of, a super large true crime/paranormal junkie. (what do you know, another fact about me, maybe I should add it to my first post lol) I’ve been trying for months to find my “niche” when it comes to writing blogs and then it occurred to me, I should write one blog a week on the one thing I love…the spooky, creepy, and murderousness of this world. So, In honor of this week and Salem, Mass (where I am currently) I decided the first week would be on none other than….The Salem Witch Trials. So, welcome to the first week of Spooky Saturday and I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I loved writing it! So, the infamous Salem Witch Trials were from June 1692-May 1693 and they claimed nineteen victims, and imprisoned one hundred and eighty-one more. They took place in Massachusetts Bay Colony, which is now Danvers, Massachusetts, after a group of young girls claimed to be possessed by the devil and accused SEVERAL local women of witchcraf...
