Manage episode 351047041 series 3275335
In this week's episode Sandra talks about the Muffin Man. Although everyone may know the nursery rhyme" Do you Know the Muffin Man?" Not many may know that the nursery rhyme's origins are very disturbing. The story goes that the Muffin Man may have been a man by the name of Federic Thomas Lynwood who supposedly would lure children to their death. The nursery rhyme was then created to warn other children about this particular man.
Later, Danielle covers the disappearance of the Sodder children. A mystery that continues to remain unsolved. On Christmas Eve 1945 in Fayetville, West Virginia a fire ravaged the Sodder household. Jennie and George escaped with four of their children, but the remaining five were trapped in the house. Jennie and George were heartbroken when they saw their house engulfed in flames, but their only option was to wait for help. Strangely there were no remains discovered inside the home during an investigation. What happened to the five missing children?
