PATREON EXCLUSIVE: THE LOBSTER FAMILY
🕑 Added 2024-10-29 10:00:10 +0000 UTCFor more than 5 generations, a rare physical condition known as ectrodactyly has afflicted the Stiles family. But they leveraged their circumstances, and traveled as a circus act known as "The Lobster Family," becoming a carnival staple throughout the early 20th century. But tragedy struck The Lobster Family, not once but twice. Today's episode profiles the strange tale and bizarre circumstances of the Lobster Family, which led to the murder of the family's patriarch, Grady Stiles Jr. His death was marred with controversy, leaving a community divided and a family fractured.

I want Jer to change his name to Jac Lean. This reminds me of Diane Arbus’ circus photos. Perfect spooky inspiration!
