Episodes from MrBallen Podcast: Strange, Dark & Mysterious Stories
Closing Time (PODCAST EXCLUSIVE EPISODE)
On an evening in September 2017, a woman in Massachusetts came home from work to an empty house. Her boyfriend was gone, but she saw that his wallet and phone were still right there on the counter. And on the kitchen table were three envelopes. She opened them. One was his last will and testament. The second was a note for her. And the third... was a letter addressed to the family of a woman who'd been murdered 25 years ago.

The Mayor's Wife (PODCAST EXCLUSIVE EPISODE)
On an evening in August 2000, a city council candidate stood behind a podium at a high school in small-town Alabama.
