Card-Carrying Villain | |
| Red Web (Podcast) / int_137f2d7 | comment |
Card-Carrying Villain: Several unidentified killers have this attitude, gloating about their crimes and taking pride in the most gruesome details. Jack the Ripper sent letters to the police detailing the most disgusting and gory aspects of his crimes, so much so that the hosts had to leave out some of the specifics. In one of his letters, he even played with the idea of cannibalism, sending half of the kidney of one of his victims to investigators, and claiming to have eaten the other piece. While not a killer, the Monster With 21 Faces clearly got a twisted pleasure in the amount of chaos and fear they were causing with their various threats against Japanese food companies and their attempted ransoms. In their final letter to the police, the Monster even said "It is fun to lead a bad man's life." | |

Aliens Steal Cattle | |
| Red Web (Podcast) / int_22759a15 | comment |
Aliens Steal Cattle: One of the theories mentioned about Skinwalker Ranch is that the mysterious cattle mutilations were done by extraterrestrials, due to the strangely intricate cuts made to the creatures, including removing parts of the eyeball and carving chunks out of the rectum. The hosts go into further detail about this theory in particular during the episode on cattle mutilations specifically, and at one point Trevor references the stereotypical image of a UFO abducting a cow when discussing one of the supposed sightings. | |

| Red Web (Podcast) / int_2317bc85 | comment |
Tampering with Food and Drink: The Monster with 21 Faces sent threatening letters to Japanese confectionery companies claiming to have poisoned a vast selection of popular snack foods. And while it's unknown if anyone actually died from these poisonings, the mass panic was enough to severely damage the companies' respective stocks for a long period of time. The Vending Machine Murders saw 12 people killed and at least 35 hospitalized after an unknown party poisoned various soft drinks with the herbicide paraquat. | |

Only Sane Man: Alfredo tends to voice his disbelief at certain bizarre conspiracy theories, and very frequently refuses to go along with Trevor's various zany schemes to investigate haunted or supernatural locations.

Death of a Child | |
| Red Web (Podcast) / int_269e82c1 | comment |
Death of a Child: Discussed in the episodes on the Lindbergh baby kidnapping, where the infant son of famous aviator Charles Lindbergh was abducted from his family's home, and was tragically found dead several weeks later from a head injury. Alfredo talks about how viscerally terrifying this situation was, especially since both of the parents were home when this abduction occurred. The episode on the Pollock Twins also covers this, where 11-year-old Joanne Pollock and 6-year-old Jacqueline Pollock were struck down by an erratic driver while on their way to church. The driver had been denied custody of her own children, and tragically decided to take out her grief in the worst possible way. | |

Police Are Useless | |
| Red Web (Podcast) / int_59907e4f | comment |
Police Are Useless: Frequently brought up in the cases of unsolved murders, with the hosts pointing out how police ineffectiveness often contributed to evidence being lost, key suspects or witnesses being ignored, and failing to share information between precincts. The case of the Zodiac Killer is of particular note, with one group of police officers completely ignoring a man who matched the killer's description, and who was also walking around covered in blood, but passed him by because an incorrect dispatch had informed them that the suspect was black, while this person was white. The Hinterkaifeck murders is a glaring case of evidence bungling. The investigators had the bright idea to send the heads of the victims to a clairvoyant of all people, and predictably, the skulls were lost and never recovered. | |

Murder, Inc.: One of the many theories in the "Lake City Quiet Pills" episodes puts forward the idea that the eponymous website is a front for a hired hitman service. The evidence for such is rather solid, with clear references to sending people to other countries on "jobs" and the use of acronyms for said jobs. Not to mention the site's tagline is "Dispensing Lake City Quiet Pills to lousy bastards in need of permanent rest since 1968." | |

Delicate and Sickly: In the episode on Grigori Rasputin, the hosts discuss how one of the factors that contributed to Rasputin's rise to prominence was that Tsarevich Alexei, the only son and heir of Tsar Nicholas II, had hemophilia. This debilitating bleeding disorder was kept secret from the public, and the Romanovs believed that only Rasputin could cure the young prince.note And in a strange way, he actually did. Alexei's doctors were prescribing him aspirin, at the time believed to be a "cure all" drug, when it was actually only exacerbating his condition further. By taking him off the medication, Rasputin was able to alleviate Alexei's pain and prevent his bleeding episodes from becoming worse. | |

Karma Houdini | |
| Red Web (Podcast) / int_a70223 | comment |
Karma Houdini: Many of the unknown criminals and serial killers who have gotten away with their crimes, especially those from time periods before DNA testing was established. Jack the Ripper is probably one of the most famous examples. In the fall of 1888, an unknown assailant attacked and brutally murdered five prostitutes in London's East End, and sent taunting letters to the police relishing in the gruesome details of his crimes. Despite the best efforts of investigators, the killer was never identified, and likely lived out the rest of his life in obscurity. The Phantom Killer of the Texarkana Moonlight Murders, who shot and killed five people and severely injured three, was never concretely identified by police. There were some very strong suspects, particularly a man named Youell Swinney, but he was never positively identified and the killer remains unknown to this day. Many of the unsolved murder cases have a Karma Houdini behind them, with the killer or killers remaining unknown and unlikely to be identified barring some technological breakthrough. | |

When discussing alien abductions, Trevor likes to reference the "Close Encounters" SNL sketch from Saturday Night Live. | |

Alternate Reality Game: One of the commonly recurring theories about some of the mysteries the show discusses (eg.

In the case of the "Junko Junsui" mystery, two individuals came forward years later and admitted that the whole thing was an ARG that had gotten out of hand, so much so that even the North Korean government reached out to the fictional Junko, believing them to be a real person. | |

Hunting the Most Dangerous Game: Basically the Zodiac Killer's M.O. He even referenced this story in several of his cryptograms, claiming that the people he killed would become his servants in the afterlife. | |

Dead Person Conversation | |
| Red Web (Podcast) / int_e1fa8421 | comment |
Dead Person Conversation: Some of the mysteries involving ghosts include an instance of the deceased supposedly communicating with the living from beyond the grave. The story of the Jack Froese Emails has several of Jack's friends and relatives receiving emails from the late Jack long after his death, some of which included specific details on events that didn't happen until after his passing. In the case of the Greenbrier Ghost, Elva Zona Heaster Shue supposedly visited her mother in her dreams to reveal the true circumstances around her sudden death, mainly that she was murdered by her husband. This, coupled with the suspicious deaths of his previous two wives, was enough to prompt a full investigation, exumation, and autopsy, the latter of which revealed that Zona had in fact been strangled to death. | |

Secret Squatter | |

Secret Squatter: One of the theories posited about the Watcher case is that the perpetrator was somehow hiding out inside the house, which would explain how eerily detailed and specific some of their observations and threats were. | |

Running Gag | |
| Red Web (Podcast) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Trevor constantly trying to induct Alfredo into the "Red Web Task Force" and investigate particularly scary mysteries and supernatural events. Trevor's vendetta against owls. Similarly, Alfredo's equally passionate fear of catfish. After the episode on Mothman, the hosts like to joke that Mothman is secretly a good guy and a misunderstood hero. Given their tendency to reference movies and TV shows while discussing topics, Trevor and Alfredo tend to refer to Red Web as the "#1 movie podcast about mysteries." "Baby Hands", a ghostly character created by Trevor with abnormally tiny hands, tends to get brought up to explain random goings on. Buff scientists, started as a gag between the hosts arguing that a scientist doesn't always have to be a weedy nerd, and can also be incredibly ripped. | |
