Get ready for scary mysteries Twisted Two's.#1 Gypsy Rose Blanchard Mothers are supposed to take care of their children but in the case of Gypsy Rose Blanchard and her mother Dee Dee, it was almost nothing like that. They both lived in their Springfield, Missouri home for years when on June 14, 2015, Dee Dee was found dead from multimple stab wounds, lying on a pool of her own blood. Police determined she had been dead for days before she was discovered. Meanwhile, neighbors and friends expressed concern for her daughter, Gypsy Rose who was, according to Dee Dee, suffering from leukemia, muscular dystrophy, asthma and only had the mental capacity of a 7-year old. #2 Louis HastingsOn February 28, 1983, former computer programmer, Louis Hastings went on a shooting rampage in the tiny village of McCarthy, Alaska. Described by his neighbors as a quiet man, Hastings initially grew up in Leawood, Kansas. Since he was young, he had been treated for chronic depression but his family said he grew up as a caring adult – even offering his time to clean birds affected by an oil spill off the Californian Coast. He later became a computer programmer and began working at Stanford University in 1975. Several years later, he married a Stanford librarian. By the 80s, the couple quit their jobs and decided to move to Anchorage, Alaska. Both had dreamed of a quiet life in the wilderness but Hastings grew increasingly troubled by the construction and operation of the Trans-Alaska pipeline. He believed it was destroying the Alaskan wilderness and decided it was his duty to stop it.Support the show Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
