  • 25: The Unsolved Dardeen Family Murders | True Crime Sleep Stories
    Jul 2 2025
    Welcome to True Crime Sleep Stories, where haunting tales of the past guide you into a restful night’s sleep. In this episode, we journey to Ina, Illinois, in November 1987, to unravel the chilling and unsolved Dardeen Family Murders—a case that shattered a small town and left a mystery that lingers like fog over the fields. Settle in, dim the lights, and let this story carry you into the shadows. Episode Description On a crisp autumn evening in 1987, the Dardeen family—Keith, Elaine, their son Peter, and their unborn daughter Casey—lived a quiet life in a mobile home in rural Ina, Illinois. Dreams of a fresh start in Mount Carmel were on the horizon, but a darkness descended on November 17, silencing their hopes. Found brutally murdered in their home, with Keith’s body discovered a mile away, the Dardeens’ deaths stunned a community already shaken by a wave of violence. No forced entry, no clear motive, and a killer who vanished like a ghost. Was it a trusted friend, a drifter like Tommy Lynn Sells, or something more sinister? Join us as we explore this heartbreaking case, told with care to honor the lives lost, in a narrative designed to soothe and intrigue as you drift toward sleep. Content Warning: This episode contains descriptions of brutal violence. If you prefer lighter stories, check out our other episodes in the playlist below.
