When a quiet September night in 2006 turned into a real-life horror film, Bannock County, Idaho, would never be the same. Filming Death: The Scream Murder of Cassie Jo Stoddart tells the chilling true story of a responsible, kind-hearted teenager betrayed by classmates who wanted to turn murder into a movie.

Cassie was just seventeen — house-sitting, caring for family pets, and planning for her future — when two of her peers, Brian Draper and Torey Adamcik, transformed her ordinary weekend into a nightmare inspired by Scream and Columbine. This episode dives deep into the psychology of teenage infamy, the timeline of the crime, and the haunting aftermath that shattered an entire community.

John and Angela unravel how two high school boys turned fantasy into horror, the meticulous investigation that followed, and how Cassie’s legacy continues to echo through true crime history. From forensic evidence and courtroom confessions to Cassie’s personal story of responsibility, integrity, and light — this episode exposes the thin line between obsession and evil.
