What Happens in the Woods Podcast is run by the dynamic duo, Jess and Brice.

We’re just your average couple, living normal lives, who happen to be obsessed with everything related to true crime. Shortly after relocating to the great Pacific Northwest, we realized there were stories upon gruesome stories to be told from this region. And we want nothing more than to share them with you.

 

Since our first episode on The Green River Killer in February of 2020, it has been an incredible journey for our little indie podcast. We’ve covered notorious serial killers, strange cyanide poisonings, and even old-time kidnappings. What Happens in the Woods has recorded over 50 episodes and has gained listeners from all around the world. From our regular season to our WTF Wednesday segments, we hope to provide true crime lovers with cases that they may not have heard of. Join us during our regular seasons on every first and third Friday of the month as we take a deep look into the dark and twisted. It isn’t for the faint of heart, but we promise it will be worth it.

 

And remember...STAY OUT OF THE WOODS!

Season 7 Episode 3

Old Timey Crime:

Evil Eggnog!!!

Hello, campers! Get ready for this weeks episode to ring in the new year! We hope everyone had a fun and safe start to 2025. We can’t wait to see what’s in store!

 

This week takes us back almost a century to a case from Long Island, New York. In 1935, Ada Appelgate passed away from a mysterious illness after suffering from heart and health issues for years. The 38 year old wife and mother was almost laid to rest until some anonymous information made its way to police. What ensued after the inquiry into her death is definitely unexpected.

 

Join us for this weeks episode on one of Jess’s favorite categories to research -old timey crime.
