In this episode of The Box of Oddities, we chip away at the icy mystery of Marcelin and Francine Dumoulin, a Swiss couple who vanished into thin air—only to reappear 75 years later like a very slow RSVP. Then, we time-travel to 18th-century Russia for the hilariously tragic reign of Peter III, a czar whose six-month stint makes your worst temp job look like a lifetime achievement. And finally, we tiptoe through Devon, England, where the Devil apparently went on a midnight jog in 1855—leaving behind some truly unsettling hoofprints that no one’s explained since.

Get ready for frozen revelations, royal ridiculousness, and paranormal podiatry. It’s weird, it’s wild, it’s everything you listen to The Box of Oddities for.
