This is exactly right. You know that feeling when you're at Ross and you find the best gifts for way less? Like brand name sweaters, the coolest kids toys, and plush dog beds? Get that feeling with every gift and save 20 to 60% off other retailers' prices. At Ross, yes for less. In the summer of 1994, four teens entered an abandoned building in Gravesend, Brooklyn. It was the last time they would be seen alive. With few clues and no witnesses, the case went cold. But for Anthony Brewer, the brother of one of the victims, the search never stopped. In 2024, he acquired evidence from the police that contained DNA samples that didn't match the teens. That discovery put his life, and the life of his family, in grave danger. Goosebumps, The Vanishing. All episodes available January 10th on Disney Plus and Hulu on DisneyPlus.Disney.com. Rated TV14LV.
Hello and welcome to My Favorite Murder, the Minnesota. That's right. Stop arguing because it's real. We told you. We said we were going to do it. Listen, please listen.
Give us the benefit of the doubt. Now go. Okay. Now that we've just berated them. They like it. This is called Family Drama, Bloody Handprint. Hi. Day seven listener here, a longtime dreamer of writing a hometown, but I never felt I had the right story. Wait, wait, wait. I don't know. Episode seven or day seven? Like seven days after we released the first episode? I don't know.
It sounds like literally I've been listening for seven days and I've dreamed of writing an email forever.
Okay. We were both on the other sides of the... I don't think mine's right, though. I just think it's funny. That would be very funny. Today you asked for family drama, and I come from two large Catholic families and started thinking through all the family lore and shenanigans. Could I tell you the story about dangling my little cousin down the second floor laundry chute? Oh. Or about the island my family used to own in Pittsburgh until they squandered away all of their money and it was seized by the government? Yeah. Nope, it has to be the bloody handprint on my grandparents' basement wall. Oh, shit. When I was growing up, my grandparents lived in a split-level home, read lots of stairs, and the lowest level was a cement basement.
I was down there one day, probably trying to find their grumpy cat, Mo, when I noticed something on one of the cement walls. I looked a little closer and thought it faintly looked like a brownish-colored handprint, obviously faded with time. Later that day in the car, I asked my dad, hey, is there a handprint on the basement wall at grandma's house? Oh, yeah. That's from when your great grandmother died. What? Yep. Here's the story. Oh. Oh, no. She fell and hit her head. At some point, she touched her bloody head and then touched the wall, leaving the infamous bloody handprint. It is exact. Yes, it is exactly what you think it's going to be. Jesus Christ.
I know.
She did not die there on the floor, but she was not found until the morning and was taken to the hospital where she died later.
That's just a straight up tragedy.
Why am I doing this story is a question I'm asking myself right now.
Let's see if they have a point. Let's see if we're going to get somewhere.
I mean, the hamper remains to this day, I think, is the point that all our families are fucking morbid and weird and we just go along with it like everything's fine.
Right. What would have been the problem with going down and rinsing that handprint off?
Rinsing, painting over it. Thanks for all you do and share. This podcast has dramatically impacted the way I see the world and myself. And though my husband is not a listener, he doesn't need to be because I literally retell him every single episode. Stay sexy and dig deep for those family stories because everyone's got them. Yeah, that's true. Beth. Beth, good point. I think that's the point is like everyone has a bloody handprint from their great grandmother in the basement wall.
Yeah, that for some reason no one is taking care of. Yeah, and that you have to ask about before they'll tell you about it. They'll let you as a child wander down into a darkened basement and discover it yourself. Right. And not be like, we want to keep that there as a remembrance or anything. It's just like, hey, go find it. It's like write a passage.
