Welcome to episode 23 - Minnesota First up in Weird News, our story recounts recent attacks by the Penanggalan, a nocturnal vampiric entity of Malay ghost myths. Its name comes from the word tanggal meaning to remove or take off because its form is that of a floating disembodied woman's head with its trailing organs still attached. Then in this week's main topic, we tackle the chilling cases of the coolest couple in history, the Minnesota Iceman and Jean Hilliard, known to SOF as the Ice Woman.  The Iceman was a sideshow attraction that may be the definitive proof of bigfoot and can still be viewed at the Museum of the Weird in Austin Tx.  Jean Hilliard was on her way home one cold December night in 1980 when she was stranded and tried to walk to find help.  What happened next is nothing short of incredible, Jean would be found 6 hours later and completely frozen.  Tune in to find out what happened next!
