Happy Monday Cult Babes! This week we’re diving into a case that the 1960s press dubbed ‘the Kiss and Kill murder.’ Aligned with stories of Cult Liter past, such as  Death of a Cheerleader, we have a real life story of high school horror centering around 17 year old Betty Williams. What happened on the night of her disappearance from her conservative town of Odessa, Tx? There’s only one way to find out!  Sponsor: Hello Fresh: HelloFresh.com Subscribe to ‘Obitchuary’ on Patreon: Patreon.com/CultLiter  Follow along online: Instagram.com/cultliterpodcast Instagram.com/spencerhenry Twitter.com/spencerhenry Sources:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiss_and_Kill ‘A Crime to Remember’ S2 E8 ‘Bye, Bye Betty.’  https://www.texasmonthly.com/articles/a-kiss-before-dying/ https://www.amazon.com/Washed-Blood-Shelton/dp/097775586X https://medium.com/of-misdeeds-and-mysteries/killer-claims-girl-begged-him-to-shoot-her-6824335131b See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy

Oh yes cult babes, yes I did, I mean how could I not? This week we’re covering the real life story behind Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do it. The trial of Arne Johnson was the first case in the American court system in which the defense cited ‘demonic possession’ as an argument against murder charges. We’re discussing how 11 year old David Glatzel got possessed, and more importantly how he passed it on to Arne Johnson leading to the death of 40 year old Alan Bono.  Sponsors: BetterHelp: Visit betterhelp.com/spencer for 10% off your first month of online professional counseling!  Subscribe to ‘Obitchuary’ on Patreon: Patreon.com/CultLiter  Follow along online: Instagram.com/cultliterpodcast Instagram.com/spencerhenry Twitter.com/spencerhenry Sources:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trial_of_Arne_Cheyenne_Johnson ‘Devil In Connecticut’- Gerald Brittle w/ contributions from Ed and Lorraine Warren Season 2 ‘A Haunting..’ Episode ‘Where demons dwell.’ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9Be1Q_X
