Timestamp to skip straight to the case: (11:04) A professor from Northeastern University believes “violent crimes increase by as much as 50% on Halloween, which is two times the daily average.” In 2008, Arpana and her neighbors opened their apartment doors for a Halloween party.  Arpana dressed as ‘Little Red Riding Hood’ for the event.   After a night of festivities, Arpana headed to bed at around 3am. When Arpana did not arrive at work on the following Monday, her family in India asked friends to go and check on her.  A family friend discovered Arpana’s beaten body in her apartment. Now, 17 years later, Arpana’s murder remains unsolved.   Was she murdered by someone from her apartment complex or could a serial killer like Israel Keyes have been involved?

Timestamps: (5:10) - Chance Englebert Update (11:15) - Cari Farver Dave Kroupa and Cari Farver hit it off immediately on the day that Cari took her vehicle into Dave’s auto repair shop in Nebraska in 2012.  They began seeing each other and both agreed that they only wanted a casual relationship.  Dave had been seeing another woman named Liz Golyar prior to meeting Cari.  When Cari was given a job opportunity close to Dave’s home, he offered for her to stay with him to make her commute easier.  Cari accepted and the two continued their easy-going relationship. One day in November 2012, Cari seemingly changed.   She started sending Dave possessive and obsessive messages and he decided to end things, saying he had dodged a bullet. The messages kept coming, sometimes hundreds per week.  Despite the electronic communications being sent, Cari’s family were becoming increasingly worried as they were unable to get in touch with her.   After she failed to show up to her father’s funeral, they reported her missing. Cari’s alleged harassment of Dave went on for years. Police eventually began to investigate and what would unravel is one of the most bizarre cases we can recall.   It was discovered that Liz Golyar (the woman Dave had previously been seeing) was behind the messages and years of harassment.  It was also discovered that she had murdered Cari and disposed of her body. As of October 2025, Cari’s remains have not been found.

Skip the intro - (3:30) It is a story that we now hear all too often.   A child is missing for years before anyone notices and reports it to authorities.  We have covered many cases like this in the past - Harmony Montgomery and Oakley Carlson to name but two. Hayden Manis is also one of these children.   Hayden was around five years old when he went missing from  his home in Muncie, Indiana in either 2019 or 2020 (stories differ).  He was not reported missing for four to five years. Hayden’s extended family realized that he was missing in 2024.  When Hayden’s father Dustin was questioned about his son’s whereabouts, he gave conflicting stories.  Dustin died in December 2024 from a drug overdose and left no clue as to what happened to Hayden. Last week, we covered Hayden’s background and the lead up to his disappearance.  Be sure to listen to Part One of Hayden’s story first.   As of October 2025, Hayden remains missing.
