0:00.0	Welcome back to Avery After Dark, your favorite place for all things spooky. I'm your host, Avery Ross. Today's episode
0:23.7	is one of the creepiest stories I've ever heard, the unsolved murder mystery of hotel room
0:30.5	1046. I covered this case on TikTok yesterday, and I can only really fit so much in those videos. There are so many more details
0:40.4	in this case. I know you all would want to hear. I've also gotten a few comments asking why I don't
0:46.1	elaborate more on the violent details surrounding the crimes on my TikTok videos. And that's because I
0:52.4	don't want the videos to get removed. I'm not trying to
0:55.7	hold out on anyone, and I do my best to give as many details as I can. But TikTok has some pretty

1:43.9	where I like to reside. So here on the podcast,
1:46.6	I have much more freedom, so let's get into today's mystery. It all started on Wednesday,
1:53.7	January 2, 1935. Around 1.30 p.m., a man who identified himself as Roland T. Owen checked into the hotel president in Kansas
2:02.9	City, Missouri. Staff noted he was in his 20s and was nicely dressed in a black coat. They also
2:08.8	noticed a scar above his ear and noted he also had cauliflower ear. For those of you who don't know,
2:14.9	because I didn't know until recently, cauliflower ear is a deformity of the outer ear that can occur after injury to the area.
2:23.6	It has a bumpy appearance and it's most common in fighters and boxers.
2:28.6	Roland said he was from Los Angeles and requested an interior room several floors up and was
