About this episode
The episode explores the unusual case of a young woman's death in the late 1800s in West Virginia and the claims made by her mother about her daughter's return to reveal the truth.
Some stories don’t stay neatly in one world. In the late 1800s, a young woman in rural West Virginia died suddenly, her death quickly ruled natural and her case all but closed. But her mother refused to accept that explanation—and what she claimed next would change everything. She said her daughter came back to her… and told her the truth. What followed is one of the most unusual cases in American history. Want more cases, bonus episodes, and behind-the-scenes content?
