This week on That's Disturbing, we're joined by award-winning investigative journalist, producer, and television creator Rob Rosen for a fascinating conversation that dives into true crime, wrongful convictions, paranormal investigations, and the media's role in shaping public perception.

Rob is the creator and showrunner behind Reasonable Doubt, the groundbreaking true crime series that helped uncover wrongful convictions and contributed to multiple exonerations. He's also the longtime showrunner of The Dead Files, one of the most popular paranormal investigation shows on television. Now he's releasing his first book, Crimes of Omission: Distorted Justice – The Media's War on Truth. OUT NOW wherever you buy your books!

In this completely uncut, raw conversation, we discuss some of the most controversial criminal cases in recent history, what really goes on behind the scenes of investigative television, the challenges of re-examining murder convictions, and some of the strangest experiences from The Dead Files. Rob also shares what inspired his new book and why he believes what gets left out of a story can be just as important as what gets reported.

No scripts. No edits. No holding back.

This episode is also available in full video format on YouTube so you can watch the entire conversation unfold.

In this episode, we’re diving deep into two of Appalachia’s creepiest stories: the disturbing Delilah McKenna creepypasta that’s been haunting the internet and the terrifying legend of Mothman.
From glowing red eyes lurking over isolated roads to eerie Appalachian folklore that feels way too real, these stories have taken on lives of their own.
We spiral into the unsettling story of Delilah McKenna, a dark internet horror tale wrapped in missing person vibes, strange backwoods rumors, and the kind of storytelling that makes you question whether it’s really fiction at all. Then we unpack the origins of the Mothman sightings, the paranoia surrounding the legend, and why people are still obsessed with it decades later.
So turn the lights down, lock your doors, and don’t go wandering through the Appalachian woods alone at night.
