What we're about
At Staircase Stories, we uncover the cases that often slip through the cracks, stories of real people, unsolved mysteries, and tragedies that deserve to be remembered. Our true crime channel is dedicated to producing in-depth true crime videos and full-length documentaries that shed light on lesser-known cases.
We focus on thorough research, respectful storytelling, and presenting every detail with clarity. Each project is crafted to not only inform but also to give a voice to victims and their families, keeping their stories alive and bringing attention to the pursuit of justice.
Most recently, we released "Collision of Silence," a feature-length documentary that dives deep into the hit and run death of 11 year old Deidre Week. We told Deidre's story like never before and exposed the possible cover up and lackluster investigation ran by the Wood County Sheriffs Department.
Whether it’s a short-form case breakdown or a deep-dive documentary months in the making, our goal is always the same: to tell the stories that matter and to do so with honesty, compassion, and integrity.
