Welcome to Cryptic Soup, your after-dark podcast. Crimes, cryptids, cons, and beyond. There is always something new to dive into.

In this week's episode, join Thena and Kylee to discuss a child against child murder. Tristyn Bailey was only 13-years-old when she was senselessly murdered by a 14-year-old fellow classmate, Aiden Fucci. Fucci’s reasoning? He just wanted to know what it felt like to murder someone.

Welcome to Cryptic Soup, your after-dark podcast. Crimes, cryptids, cons, and beyond. There is always something new to dive into.

In this week's episode, join Thena and Kylee to discuss the death of Lacey Fletcher. Lacey’s parents neglected her for twelve years on the couch, where her body rotted away and fused to the couch. Lacey was so malnourished with feces and couch cushions being her only source of food, while vermin and maggots ate away at her slowly. This story is horrifying and gruesome and Lacey deserved so much better than this world gave her.
