Summary

👉 LIVE SHOW TICKETS Step into the bizarre with this episode of The Box of Oddities—where medical mysteries, immortal mannequins, and murderous sausage kings collide. First, we unravel one of the strangest medical cases in modern history: Patient AB, who discovered the voices in her head weren’t a symptom, but a life-saving alarm system. Then we pucker up for the story of Resusci Anne, whose face has been kissed over 300 million times since her mysterious death more than a century ago. Finally, we sink our teeth into the chilling tale of Adolph Louis Luetgert, the infamous “Sausage King of Chicago,” whose legacy is as greasy as it is gruesome. Weird history, true crime oddities, and unbelievable science—this episode has it all. #WeirdHistory #TrueCrimePodcast #MedicalMystery #ResusciAnne #BoxOfOddities #StrangeButTrue #DarkHistory Learn more about your ad choices.
