About this episode
In Ash's Alaina-length Mini Morbid, she bravely took on the heartbreaking mystery of Susan Powell's disappearance and the murder of her two beautiful boys. It's one part mystery, one part horrific Texas Chainsaw Massacre family dynamic and one part absolutely devastating murder/suicide. This is a tough one but it will have you engrossed from beginning to end.
This episode contains the death of children, please use discretion!
