Perplexity: A Mystery Podcast

It's the summer of 1725, in a small village called Kisiljevo, in what is now Serbia. A man named Petar Blagojevich has been dead for about ten weeks.

In that time, nine people in the village have died. Some of them, according to the villagers, died within just a day or so of falling ill. Before they died, several of the villagers claimed Petar had come to them in the night, lain on top of them, and choked them. Petar was even said to have visited his son, requesting food. When his son refused to give him anything, Petar killed him with dozens of bites, draining him of his blood.

The villagers are terrified, and they know what needs to be done. They need to open his grave. The villagers pry it open but they find Petar’s body is not decayed. There's fresh blood in his mouth. His hair and nails had grown longer. There's new skin where his old skin has peeled away. So they drove a stake through Petar’s heart. Blood poured from his ears and the mouth. They then burned his body to ash.

A little over a century later, in 1897, a novelist in London will publish a book about a tall, elegant, charming nobleman in a castle, who sleeps in a coffin, and seduces his victims. It would be the story that would go onto shape one of the most iconic pieces of folklore of all time. 

Today’s perplexing episode is all about the vampire!

Imagine washing your hair late one night and encountering a woman with long dark stringy hair, clothes tattered, and one of her eyes gouged out. After this encounter, the fear isn’t over. She lingers in the corner of your eye for days.

Now picture yourself stepping onto an elevator alone, hitting buttons in a specified sequence. Then… something steps onto the elevator with you. As you travel up and down the elevator you slowly leave your existential plane and enter another.
Can a bathtub ritual summon an entity? Can an elevator transport us to other worlds?

Today’s perplexing episode is all about 2 allegedly cursed games: Daruma-san, and the Elevator Game.

Today, we will be revisiting the story of one of the most influential and iconic rappers of all time. He helped redefine the sound of West Coast hip hop, but he was also a young man who had just as many enemies as he did friends. But his life was tragically cut short at the young age of 25 on September 7th, 1996.

His case has been seemingly cold for over 25 years, and has resulted in endless conspiracies. In July of 2023, a new search warrant was executed in connection to his murder, and now it seems the answers may have been there all along. The Duane Davis trial commenced in August and September of 2026 and a recent docuseries, Sean Combs: The Reckoning put Diddy in the line of fire.

This is the perplexing story and updated episode about the murder of Tupac Shakur.

Kaydra is bringing you a re-mastered Patreon leak today. This has also been highly requested so it seemed like a good one to release onto the main feed.

Jason Corbett, an Irish man living in North Carolina, was brutally murdered in his home on August 2, 2015 by his second wife, Molly Martens Corbett, and her father, Thomas Martens, a retired FBI agent. Both Molly and Thomas claimed they acted in self-defense, but were later found guilty of second-degree murder and sentenced to 20–25 years in prison after evidence and testimony cast doubt on their story.
