Description

In the newest episode of our Curious Travels podcast, we trace the tragic string of recent drownings at Lady Bird Lake, laying out the evidence and folklore related to the supposed “Rainey Street Ripper.” Many locals have unanswered questions, and we want to hear from you: Do you think Austin has a serial killer lurking in the shadows?


From True Crime tales both recent and past, to the famed hauntings of the Driscoll Hotel, we share how beneath the surface of one of Texas’ most visited travel destinations lies a history of tragedy that dark tourists can experience today.
