On today's episode, Genevieve will have a series of mysterious and tragic murders in the southwest, men frozen to death, dogs playing with dead bodies in basements, nose pullers, lost wigs, and highly inappropriate sarcasm regarding incredibly violent vigilante justice. We'll also have a haunted house in 1878 with too many skeletons buried in the basement to know who's who.
