Killed on the Fourth of July
5 JUL 2024 · On July 4, 1998, a trio of ATV riders found a body near an interstate exit in the Las Vegas desert. What the police thought was an apocalyptic skinhead was really Airmen Dan Shersty, stationed at Nellis Air Force Base. Days later, they found the body of Lin Newborn, a local punk scene staple. The two men were best friends and the leaders of the local Anti-Racist Action group. They'd been lured to the desert by men with polar opposite views and murderous intentions.

The Entity
7 JUN 2024 · In the 1970’s Doris Bither claimed, among other ghostly happenings, to have been sexually assaulted by three ghosts. Her case inspired a 1978 novel by Frank De Felitta titled The Entity and a film of the same name. The case parallels other popular “based on a true story” horror films of the time—including The Exorcist and The Amityville Horror—blending themes of paranormal investigation, tormented victims, and evil spirits.
