Speaker 1: If anyone wanted to commit a murder, up here would be the greatest place in the world to hide the body. But no one will find it.

00:00:12
Speaker 2: It's two weeks after Halloween 1997. Snow whips sideways into a dark squib of water about 60 miles north of New York City. A mother and father either ripples intently. Their teen daughter, Robin Murphy, has been missing for two years. They'd been brought to this pond by a Hail Mary tip. Someone saw a skull in the water.

00:00:42
Speaker 1: The skull was smiling and the skeleton's hands were outstretched, palms facing outward.

00:00:50
Speaker 2: The parents watch as divers slide beneath the surface. Cops and federal agents, private eyes and psychics. Even a self-proclaimed witch have tried to find Robin Murphy. I feel like when I get spooked, it's authentic.

00:01:09
Speaker 3: They all knew that I did the scary boogie stuff. And they said, maybe she'll find out where this girl is.

00:01:18
Speaker 2: You start digging, and then, you know, it kind of becomes almost like an obsession. If last season of The Devil's Quarry was a horror story, then this season is a ghost story I want to show you something.

00:01:31
Speaker 1: So this is the Robin Murphy file from the police department.

00:01:35
Speaker 2: After opening that Pandora's box, I'm haunted by two questions. Who did this to Robin Murphy? And why?

00:01:48
Speaker 1: Oh, I think he killed Robin.

00:01:50
Speaker 2: He acted friendly. He talked friendly. He sounded friendly. I saw him violent. Backhand there.

00:01:57
Speaker 3: Pow!

00:01:57
Speaker 2: Pow! Like almost knocked her.

00:01:59
Speaker 1: F * * * ing head off.

00:02:01
Speaker 2: They actually thought they were going to get a confession out of him.

00:02:04
Speaker 1: And that's exactly what made us all think he had something to do with it.

00:02:10
Speaker 2: I can see her face right now for a fact I know she was in there. The clock is ticking down and the woods are calling. There are a lot of demons in Putnam County, but I've met the devil and he's real. I'm Paul Solitaroff, and this is Season 2 of The Devil's Quarry.
