  • Room 1046: A Kansas City Hotel Murder and One of True Crime’s Unsolved Mysteries

    Room 1046: A Kansas City Hotel Murder and One of True Crime’s Unsolved Mysteries
    2026/05/12

    A man checks into the President Hotel under a false name — and Room 1046 becomes a locked-door nightmare.

    The death of the man known as Roland T. Owen remains one of the strangest true crime stories of 1930s Kansas City. Behind the name was a deeper mystery: Artemis Ogletree, a false identity, a hotel room filled with unanswered questions, and a cast of names that still feel like pieces from a puzzle no one has ever fully solved.

    This historical true crime episode follows the eerie Room 1046 case through the President Hotel, the Kansas City murder investigation, the mystery letters, and the people connected to the story, including Eugene K. Scott, Mary Soptic, Don Kelso and the elusive “Louise”. Was Room 1046 the scene of a planned hotel murder, a meeting gone wrong, or something even stranger?

    For listeners drawn to unsolved mysteries, real life mysteries, cold case podcast stories and dark history, this is a chilling look at how one hotel room became a lasting legend. Room 1046 is not just a murder case. It is a strange history of aliases, silence, fear and unanswered questions that still refuses to stay buried.

    Topics Include

    • The President Hotel in Kansas City in January 1935
    • Roland T. Owen and the false identity trail
    • The note to Don and the name Louise
    • The attack inside room 1046
    • Artemis Ogletree and the letters sent after death
    • Why the Room 1046 case remains unsolved

  • Nepal Royal Massacre: A Dark History of Prophecy, Power and Palace Killings

    Nepal Royal Massacre: A Dark History of Prophecy, Power and Palace Killings
    2026/05/05
    A royal dinner becomes a bloodbath, a prince lies in a coma, and the Nepal Royal Massacre turns a dynasty into one of modern history’s most disturbing mysteries. This dark history episode follows the Nepal Royal Massacre from the Shah dynasty prophecy and the “tenth generation” curse to Crown Prince Dipendra’s blocked relationship with Devyani Rana, royal astrology, status, and the marriage politics simmering inside the palace. On 1 June 2001, a family gathering in Kathmandu ended with King Birendra, Queen Aishwarya and much of Nepal’s royal family dead — and with an official account that many Nepalis struggled to believe. We trace the palace massacre, the early “accident” cover story, Dipendra being crowned king while in a coma, Gyanendra’s succession, the Kathmandu riots, and the conspiracy theories that still cling to the case. For listeners of true crime stories, royal scandals, real life mysteries and strange true stories, the Nepal Royal Massacre is a chilling collision of love, power, prophecy, public distrust and historical true crime. Topics Include: The Shah dynasty prophecy and the “tenth generation” curseCrown Prince Dipendra and Devyani RanaRoyal astrology, status, and marriage politicsThe June 2001 family gathering inside the palaceThe massacre, the “accident” cover story, and Dipendra’s comaSuccession, outrage, and the conspiracy theories that followed Resources and Further Reading Nepalese royal massacre - WikipediaA royal massacre - ABCMassacre at the Palace - by Jonathan GregsonNepal Royal Family Massacre - Zero Hour Documentry Host & Show Info Hosts: Kyle Risi & Adam CoxIntro Music:Alice in dark Wonderland Community & Calls to Action Review & follow on: Spotify & Apple PodcastsInstagram: @theCompendiumPodcastWebsite: TheCompendiumPodcast.comSupport us: Sign up to PatreonCertified Freaks: Submit your job Descriptions Share this episode with a friend!

  • Michael Jackson Allegations Part 2: Famous Trials, Settlements and the Legacy War

    Michael Jackson Allegations Part 2: Famous Trials, Settlements and the Legacy War
    2026/04/28
    Fame, money, media frenzy and courtroom drama collide in the Michael Jackson allegations — a story still argued over decades later. The Michael Jackson allegations remain among pop culture’s most disputed true crime stories: a tangled history of accusations, denial, civil settlement, tabloid obsession and legal uncertainty. This episode follows Jordan Chandler and the first allegations, the 1993 civil settlement and why it settled so little in the public mind, Martin Bashir’s documentary, Neverland, the Gavin Arvizo case, and the 2005 trial that ended in Michael Jackson’s full acquittal. We also examine Leaving Neverland, the legacy war that followed, and the difficult question at the centre of famous trials, celebrity scandals and media scandals: how do people judge a global icon when the evidence, the money, the power dynamics and the public narratives all pull in different directions? For listeners interested in pop culture scandals, real life mysteries, historical true crime and true crime stories handled with care, the Michael Jackson allegations are less a simple verdict than a cultural fault line — one that continues to shape how we talk about fame, accusers, doubt, belief and legacy.
