Every week Twisted Two's dives into a pair of uniquely terrifying true stories that are worthy of a more in depth look.For this week, we focus on the bizarre and tragic case of Mary Bell and the mysterious death of an Illinois-native. Get ready for scary mysteries Twisted Two's.#1 Mary Bell “I murder so I may come back.” These scribbled words found inside a vandalized nursery school classroom were simply dismissed as a prank by the Newcastle police. After all, who would scrawl such a cruel thing. But later on, 11-year old, Mary Bell, would admit to writing it down for “giggles.” Just one day short of her birthday, on May 25, 1968, Mary, lured 4-year old, Martin Brown to an abandoned home in Scotswood, a suburb of England, and strangled him to death. He was found inside the home lying on the floor with blood and saliva trickling down his cheek. Police initially believed it was an accident but then things would take a strange turn. #2 Danny WilliamsIt was the worst thing any parent could imagine. For days, Lois and Larry Williams couldn’t reach their 23-year old son, Danny. On Sunday, June 30, 1991, the two decided to visit their son in Galesburg, Illinois to find out if he was okay.Larry used his own key and headed through the back door. When he entered, he found his son, Danny, slumped down on his couch in the living room, dead from a single gunshot wound with the gun still in his hand. He was the youngest son in the family and for the past two years he had held a management position as a distributor for their family’s million-dollar textile and apparel manufacturing company. Danny recently started living alone and had bought his own house. His parents called police after the discovery. During investigation, cops said that there was no indication of foul play. Along with the position that the bosy was in and the gunshot wound it appeared Danny’s death was a suicide. However, the family was skeptical.Support the show
