  • CRIMES: The Mysterious Death of a MI6 Codebreaker
    Jan 7 2026
    When 31-year-old MI6 codebreaker Gareth Williams was found dead inside a padlocked sports bag in his London apartment, investigators were left with a scene as baffling as it was chilling. With no signs of forced entry, almost no forensic evidence, and a timeline clouded by secrecy, his death sparked worldwide speculation: Was it a tragic accident, a covert assassination, or something far stranger? In this episode, Vanessa Richardson unpacks the twists, missteps, and explosive revelations surrounding one of the UK’s most mysterious modern cases — and explores why, more than a decade later, the truth remains fiercely debated.

    Happy New Year! This year across Crime House, we released over 600 episodes.

It’s the case of the missing Martin Family, from Clues with Morgan Absher and Kaelyn Moore. This episode takes us back to December 1958. The Martin Family was as picture-perfect as they come during the holidays: Santa suits, candy canes, Christmas cards. And then… they vanished without a trace. In this story, Morgan and Kaelyn unravel a case full of bizarre leads: an abandoned car, shifting witness accounts, and a station wagon that seemed to disappear into thin air.

  • HOLIDAY SPECIAL: The New Year's Murders 2 with Carter Roy
    Jan 1 2026
    The investigation into the disappearance of Olivia Hope and Ben Smart intensifies in this second episode, following detectives as they seize on 26-year-old Scott Watson as their primary suspect despite mismatched witness descriptions, a missing boat, and no bodies ever found. Carter and Vanessa examine the controversial forensic hair evidence, disputed scratch marks, shifting witness identifications, jailhouse informants, and the prosecution’s improvised “two-trip theory,” all of which led to Watson’s conviction in one of New Zealand’s most divisive murder cases. As key witnesses later recant and public skepticism grows, the episode explores decades of appeals, wavering public opinion, and the families’ painful search for closure—raising the haunting question of whether the truth about what happened to Olivia and Ben has ever truly been uncovered.

  • HOLIDAY SPECIAL: The New Year's Murders 1 with Carter Roy
    Dec 30 2025
    The first episode of this New Year’s two-part special retraces the final hours of 17-year-old Olivia Hope and 21-year-old Ben Smart, who rang in 1998 at a massive party at New Zealand’s Furneaux Lodge before mysteriously vanishing. Through eyewitness accounts, detailed timelines, and growing concerns from loved ones, Carter Roy and guest host Vanessa Richardson unravel the pair’s movements that night—from youthful excitement and romantic sparks to a fateful ride on a water taxi with a drunken stranger and a promise of a place to sleep. As police launch a massive search through the Marlborough Sounds and sift through conflicting descriptions, dozens of witnesses, and more than 150 boats, the disappearance quickly shifts from confusion… to fear that something far darker occurred on the water.

  • CONSPIRACY THEORIES: The Dyatlov Pass Incident
    Dec 17 2025
    In this chilling episode, Vanessa Richardson unravels one of Russia’s most enduring mysteries: the 1959 Dyatlov Pass Incident, where nine experienced hikers were found dead under bizarre and increasingly inexplicable circumstances. Torn tents, barefoot footprints in the snow, massive internal injuries, missing body parts, traces of radiation, and eyewitness accounts of strange lights in the sky fueled decades of speculation—ranging from Soviet weapons tests and secret military cover-ups to UFOs, infrasound-induced panic, and natural but deadly environmental forces. With newly uncovered reports, expert analysis, and the 2019 reopening of the case, Vanessa explores how science, secrecy, and sensational theories intertwine in the search for what truly happened on that snowy Ural mountainside.
